    Maybe it’s just me but these waypoint stories have been sort of fanfic-y? Like, selecting these obscure reclaimer saga era characters and making them SUPER special.
    “Hey remember that random AI sheriff guy from Halo 5? Well now he’s the leader of Cortana’s army who philosophizes like the Didact, out-of-character”
    “Hey, remember that random person from that one halo comic who wasn’t too important or noteworthy? Well now she’s a Banished Spartan AND Escharum personally likes her”
    It just… idk these stories all read like the stories I see in some personal fan blogs about weird background characters they’re personally attached to. It’s just not compelling because of how goofy it is. It also doesn’t help how everything needs to tie into Spartans somehow.
    The idea of the ALIEN faction needing HUMAN Spartans rather than making their own ALIEN super soldiers is just lol

      And are apart of a species with no economy, resources and are endangered, The Banished who are somehow First-Ordering harder than the First-Order, In being nothing more than a small scavenged roaming fleet, But also having the manpower and ships to dominate half the bloody galaxy.
      Those Banished, Who after an ENTIRE STRATEGY SCALE GAME about fighting them and destroying their only major space-vessel, A Carrier, Just magically got given a new carrier, with no reason or backstory, **TEN YEARS** After a book trilogy that destroyed/captured all the remaining carriers of that type.
      Because... you know, After failing more than a dozen campaigns across games and novels, having their species become endangered after their home system blew up, being nothing more than a small scavenged fleet, and having their arses kicked halfawy across the milkyway, Not even being able to make their own AI... They just... magically, Started making Spartans...
      Christ, This is going into "The First Order is just a small splinter fleet" to "The First Order has a gazzilion star destroyers" level of inconsistent faction scaling, When it comes to the Banished.

      There's only one proper Spartan-IV traitor, Ilsa Zane, and her story goes way back, since Halo 4-5 days.
      The other ones are 100% insurrectionists augmented by the Banished and Innies to be able to wear their "homemade" MJOLNIR. They are not really Spartans, more like Militia Supersoldiers who likely would get clapped by any Spartan-II or III, but might have a good chance against a IV because Halo Hippocratica mentioned that a known Venezian Jackal is gathering rumbledrugs, so maybe they are trying to pull an old Prelate trick without knowing, using in-armor injectors to boost supersoldier performance as a last resort.

      Let's be real, Atriox is so dangerous because he's a wise and strong leader. While he is ambitious and that does put him as a villain, he is also both understandable and unbeatable. That being said, the true weakness of the Banished is that it's so heavily reliant upon Atriox himself that we see in Infinite that it barely functions without him.

      The fact that it's canon that some of the human outer colonies and the Insurrection joined the Banished honestly makes a lot of sense. I can see how the Innies would want to do that given that the UNSC wants no part with them.

      Atriox has himself a boon of a partnership here. The covenant made enemies of humanity, but with him cooperating with them, he’s reaping benefits the covenant never had, even having capabilities to create Spartans and Mjolnir armors for his own forces. I know the UNSC have to be terrified, but what’s worse, there’s still a flood infected Spartan out there in space. I feel it will grow in power as this conflict ramps up. I know chief will be focused on the endless, but their needs to be a spin off game with a Spartan 4 having to fight banished humans and Spartans like in halo 3 odst where the rookie fought covenant.

      Yeah but the key difference is Humanity was literally fighting for survival against an alien hegemony, and now you have a Spartan joining this different alien organization consisting of the same races that tried to wipe out your species.
      If memory serves Kurt 051 train the Spartan 3s and literally told them what they were fighting for and against in Ghosts of onyx.
      I would assume most if not all of humanity would be xenophobic especially if they fought in the human Covenant War.

      Blue Team had to escape from a whole squad of Grunt Goblins that were being used for agriculture because the Grunts immediately swapped the barn tools for the plasma and Needler armament and chased down the Spartans, and the IIs RAN. Because those things are Anti-armor tanks with projectiles that home on enemies and that have AA capabilities, it's a jack-of-all trades overkill when deployed in large numbers.

    But how would the Banished manage to create armor and implants, like do they now have a science division?
    Also, why would they not just augment their own race instead of investing resources in capturing and then enhancing humans?

      The spartan program data that Iratus stole in the mutliplayer narrative was on how to augment humans. Insurrectionists who joined the banished are the right starting material to use that on.

      Same as Covenant tech: salvage, repair, reverse engineer, and bam! New Banished tech and armor. They've been doing it since Atriox defected. As for the implants, that I'm not sure I could believe.
      The humans weren't captured. We're talking about people who remember how bad it was even before the Covenant showed up. As well as those who know, or realized after the war, what and how they were used by ONI and UNSC during.

      Because the spartan armors for humans is already made so its cheaper to just further enhance that instead of create expensive power armor for brutes and elites,also for your first question im sure huragok are also in the banished too,the engineers are extremely intelligent easily managing with many kind of tech,I'm sure they are held at gunpoint manufacturing spartan armors or at least enhancing them

      In halo it is kinda very hard to imagine what the average civilian live does look like in those factions. If you had just the games you might come to the conclusion the Covenant is just loot Forerunner tech and make it work by hitting it repeatedly - no understanding in there, that is also backed up by humanity just adopting their shield tech - because we actively use our brain and do science.
      The only race i would assume can do such things are the Forerunners or San' Shyuum

    I like this. this was a concept that was far more touched on after halo infinite was already made. the content cosmetics almost allow 343 to not only slowly feed us lore (you dont have to buy armor to read the description), but it allows them to gradually gauge how many people like different aesthetics and lore ideas. they can look at the amount of something bought to determine if that is a piece of content they could include in future halo campaigns. As of right now, the way I see it, everything points to pretty much halo wars 2 aesthetic being the most sought after still, years later. a combination of reach, halo 1/2, and the new 343 banished stuff could create AMAZING stories. so canonically we know there has been a potential flood infestation at site 22. we know there are banished Spartans. we know there are possibly flood infected Spartans. It makes sense when you consider that after the fall of the covenant and the cataclysmic events surrounding halo 3 and such, then the rise of the banished as a sort of mercenary faction based on righting some of the failures of the covenant based on covenant remnants. we know from halo wars 2 that sentinels are vast and still have a nice design. Halo wars 2 also introduced a flood outbreak from the wreckage of high charity. The future for halo that 343 can make is massive. they kinda dropped the ball with infinite, the campaigns lack of expansion is disgraceful. But, with all these new canonical events occurring, and the state of the halo universe after infinite, they have to possibility to make probably one of the coolest halo games ever. Banished spartans could act similarly to the arbiter in halo 2, maybe even hunting chief and other UNSC based spartans. Imagine massive battles on the ring involving the banished, unsc, and sentinels, and even flood. all of those banished and unsc Spartans susceptible to flood infection, an infection that is now cannonically spreading again. I seriously hope we never see the halo 4 "forunners" again, I frankly hated that turn of aesthetic and gameplay, it didnt feel as much like halo anymore. but, again, they have the potential to make halo great. they need to focus on the aestetic that made halo amazing in the first place and combine it with the wealth of existing ideas and events to create a otherworldly and meaningful story that will be remembered for peoples entire lives. I played halo 3 early in release, I played reach early in release, i played halo 2 as a little kid with my brother and halo 1. Halo 4 was the first game that i forgot and that gave me no good memories, I didnt even bother with guardians. I am hoping 343 using infinite as a buffer to actually make the series popular and powerful again. the atmosphere and aesthetic is resetting, but they need to fix the story now and use all this lore to actually do something.

    I wish that 343 would realize that if you just... make something nice, no focusing on the E-sports, no focusing on your stupid little live service crap and you just provide someone with a good game... they will like it enough to give you money. They will pay those microtransactions you keep wanting. Look at Helldivers 2 ( Even though Sony tried to kill it because they're just as ass backwards as 343 ) - and how they made a fun game first, give you enough super credits from their equivalent of a battle pass to unlock the Superstore armors - well, some of them. But you have all these options over there in the BASE. GAME. Events to keep the war going and being interactive, lore shaped by the community, not some writer high on the fumes of their own farts because they believe they're the next big deal in the industry.
