: 2008, 2004, or 2000, depending on what level of "release" you want.
: (2000 was "it's never going to be done, and Bungie is dead, so here's
: the design docs and work in progress" release; 2004 was the
: "it's playable, I'm sorry it still sucks" release; and 2008 was
: the "good enough" release. Expect a "I'm finally happy with
: it" release by the time the world ends in 2012).
: It's possible I saw that bit in the Arrival notes and tweaked the story to
: incorporate it somewhere in there, but most of the story (aside from the
: several complete overhauls to Chapter 5, which have nothing to do with the
: S'pht) was pretty set in stone by the time the project "died" in
: 2000.
: I'm just noting that something I thought I had made up was actually canon (or
: protocanon) all along. I've been saying things like "my theory is
: that..." or "in my interpretation..." when I could have
: just left those qualifiers off.
Bungie's Mind Control Ray?
