Re: Who's the writer for Halo 4?

In Response To: Re: Who's the writer for Halo 4? (Archilen)


: The whole thing makes me wonder why 343i would
: hire her after that fiasco, unless it's all about money and her ability to
: churn out books fairly quickly.

Because the reaction to her was not entirely negative. The displeasure with her work always bothered me, because the complaints I saw were ridiculous. The main one I encountered was her claim that the Clone Army is only three million strong - "But there's no way they could fight a Galaxy-wide war with that small of an army!" Yeah, except the entire war is a fabrication. Palpatine could've filmed two senators slapping each other and, with proper editing software, convinced everyone they were in danger.

As far as her treatment of the Mandalorians . . . they've always been a pretty awesome culture. Now, they're an awesome culture with more to them than "We kill things!" Have you played KotOR? The way the Mandalorians are characterized there is awful. "Hey, we're a warrior society and we like honor, except we really don't because most of us are mercenaries now!"

On to Halo, a lot of people liked Glasslands, too. I'm tired of arguing about how the characters' views of Halsey and the author's view are not the same. Halsey isn't done yet, she hasn't been tucked away in some prison - she's at a Forerunner facility. She's about to learn that John and Cortana are still alive. She knows that P's got Osman indoctrinated and primed to take over ONI. The shit is about to hit the fan.
