Re: NPC Design Critique (or, Kat vs. Alyx Vance!)
Posted By: General Battuta <seth.dickinson@gmail.com>Date: 10/24/10 12:46 p.m.

In Response To: Re: NPC Design Critique (or, Kat vs. Alyx Vance!) (Cody Miller)


: Why not do it like Bungie handled the Arbiter in Halo 3? If he dies, he falls
: down and stays down for a while, then he will get back up once the area's
: clear.

I mentioned that in there, and why I thought it wouldn't work well. Or I think I implied it.

To recap: having your Spartans keel over and get up again and again makes it, first, seem like they're not great soldiers, and second, kind of implausible when they finally die for good.

I agree it would've been better than what we got here, but it seems like it undermines the dignity of the Spartans.
