Re: Still in denial about Chackas, etc.

In Response To: Still in denial about Chackas, etc. (Arithmomaniac)


: Personally, I'm still in denial that 343GS is/was Chackas: - The obvious -
: this seems to take place after Halo 3, so he should be dead.
: - There's no concrete evidence that he IS 343GS. They just said so for
: internal PR.
: - "One of us helped, then turned against you". Not 343 himself,
: apparently.
: - Terminals. Why does he have an induction ceremony? Why does he seem so
: naive about what is going on? Why does he always call us
: "Reclaimers" when he is one himself?
: - A distinct lack of empathy in the Halo trilogy itself.

: I loved the last few chapters of the book (I'm horrible at drawing mental
: pictures, so the first two-thirds weren't so great for me), but this feels
: too clever by half to be true...

Agreed, it doesn't quite add up, and there was quite a strong theme of deception and illusion throughout the book. It honestly infuriated me at times how the characters were being manipulated and used, even to the end. I SO yearned for some closure for Chakas and Vinnerva, not to mention to learn her true name!
