  • It’s been said that from the beginning, you know the end. And that it’s not about the destination, it’s about the journey. In this case, it’s about neither of those things. It’s about how much pain a 9 year old game can cause you. Can You Beat Halo Reach Without Taking Any Damage?

    Can You Beat Halo Reach Without Taking Any Damage? (in text form)
    Reach begins with a cutscene showing the blue and green guy arriving at an outpost or something and listening in on a conversation between Carter and Holland. There’s some foreshadowing, an air ride, and taking Call of Duty back to its roots with boots on the ground gameplay. I was almost immediately bothered by the fact that the crosshair is not centered on the screen. But like one of the holes in my sock, I eventually stopped being afraid and got over it.
    Unparalleled destruction was revealed, nobody knew what forces of evil were responsible for such reprehensible actions. After meeting with the civilians and attempting to murder them, we encountered the Covenant for the first time. The way this run works is rather simple: any time I take damage, I reload the last checkpoint. This forces me to get through any situation without taking damage since I can’t save-scum my way through it like I could in Fallout or Skyrim by making a new save every 7 seconds.
    Also, something new you’ll notice on the screen is a timer and reset counter. The timer is self-explanatory and the reset counter isn’t necessarily for reset, it’s for the number of times I took damage and had to reset. I try to approximate how long certain difficult portions of a game take, but this provides more content. And if you’re wondering, yes, it was a nightmare to add the reset counter. I regretted it almost immediately.
    Carter and I rode off a cliff when I tried to send him and Jorge to their death, it worked the 2nd time, we fought more Covenant, and rode to another area. The aliens beat us there. This revealed one of the annoying parts of Reach that would be present throughout the rest of the game, the unfortunate placement of checkpoints. In this instance, the checkpoint is when you’re still in the air, so failing means you wait until you land over and over and over again. It doesn’t seem like it would be that bad, but when you fail here you’re waiting 25 seconds just for the chance to try again.
    The upside to combat in general is that everything your facing fires plasma based weapons. The projectiles are fast, but not so fast that they’re impossible to dodge. In close quarters it’s a fruitless endeavor, like putting the pieces of a broken coffee mug back together. When there’s some distance though, it’s more than possible to evade their shots. We had to wait a bit for Katherine to work her way into the door controls, you can tell she’s the worker because she has a robot hand. I took damage multiple times here. After several failures, I decided to just sit back and let the other Spartans do most of the work. They’re Spartans, they can’t end.

    The missing part of the video, starting at around 18:54, can be viewed here: th-cam.com/video/BnRxAbG0I-I/w-d-xo.html
    I made a mistake when editing and accidentally left in the end-card that I copy/pasted from the video I grabbed it from to add to this video’s timeline. It took up a significant portion of the screen so rather than leave it in, I just cut it out and re-uploaded that portion of the video.

      @@brendanlee1972 I researched it and the only nanotech they used with Spartans was in their armor, so they technically were never given anything that would have suitably defined them as Cyborg. Genetically Modified Human is more apt.
      They were reshaped; in muscle mass, bone structure, nervous system, brain function, and almost every-single-thing in between. But they were never given mechanically infused injections, or artificial augmentations of any kind. They really were Human, through and through. But they were the weapons-grade version of us. Essentially a machine in their thinking and operating, but they could still feel every bit of it the same as us.

      To be fair that's roughly industry standard.
      A 10 hour day on a film set translates to roughly 2 minutes of edited footage, obviously you aren't filming for 100% of that 10 hour day but to get 20 minutes of content would require 2 weeks of filming, which would probably be around the 10 hour of raw footage mark

      That's me saying that yes, while you don't film for 10 hours straight on the day to get the 2 minutes of footage, to get 20 mins of edited content would roughly be two weeks of filming, which would roughly be 10 hours of raw footage
      " And usually at film studios they have multiple editors."
      True to a point but not as much as you think. They tend to have specialized editors for highly specialized parts (Eg, a VFX editor, a colour grader, an audio mixer [All things Mitten Squad don't do in their videos anyway]) but in terms of actually building story it's usually just one editor (Maybe an assistant as well) sitting down with the director.
      I'm not saying Mitten Squad doesn't put in a lot of effort or sift through a lot of footage, I'm just saying it's pretty much industry standard, nothing exceptional.

      Believe it or not, there is a formula for which footage to grab. Once you've got your script, you grab cutscenes, read script, then fill in with footage from the rest of the script's read time.
      Yes, it's time consuming, but it only takes about as long as it takes to record 10hrs or so of footage.

That being said, it is still impossible to take 0 damage seconds before the end of the final mission in the MAC cannon, which is kind of a bummer...

    i got so close to beating this game on legendary with no deaths. obviously not in a row but one mission at a time. for some reason i saw one of those older youtubers (not seananners or hutch but one of that group, i forget his name though) do the first couple of missions but then he stopped the series. presumably because it was painfully hard. but i continued his fight. that is until the penultimate mission, which was fucking impossible. anyway, cheers for bringing back those memories.

    The lowered crosshair is actually genius, it means you look up, off the ground, so you see more of the environment instead of ground. I use that setting for Destiny 2 also.

    The interesting part about this is that the “Lone Wolf” mission doesn’t actually ‘count’ as a mission. Mild flex, but me and my 3 mates completed the reach campaign on legendary in under 3 hours, however the interesting thing was that it awarded us with the achievement upon finishing the Pillar of Autumn mission, before actually beginning Lone Wolf. That being said, it is still impossible to take 0 damage seconds before the end of the final mission in the MAC cannon, which is kind of a bummer...

    One time in high school when I was really pissed about getting 20 separate assignments (50 math problems each btw) I yelled at my math teacher to tell me what the hell kinda of job would require this kind of “Common Core Algebra” bullsh*t. She snarkishly replied “being a math teacher requires it”.
    Good to know 4/4 of my high school math classes are literally wasted time.
    >:(

      Those 20 separate assignments were assigned for Xmas break by the way, that’s why I was so pissed. Kinda like how I am right now, because TH-cam still doesn’t let me edit my own comments.

    I feel bad for anyone watching this with captions on and most likely getting very confused around 18:50. It looks like he meant to talk a little more about the section after the tower defense part and collecting Cortana, and THEN transitioning into the part about y he kept throwing himself off a cliff, but for whatever reason he opted to leave it out of the video. However he left it in the captions for the video, so we're left reading the captions of the original script and wondering how losing track of how many times u died has anything to do with lunging off a cliff onto an elite.
