| Re: And why I'm afraid as well | |

In Response To: And why I'm afraid as well (Quirel) : This is also where I face a conundrum. I'm not sure I want a new enemy at the : moment. Possibly because I'm afraid it's just going to be Flood by another : name, but mostly because I believe our current enemies haven't been quite : sufficiently explored yet. I haven't had the opportunity to lock wits with : Jackal pirates. I haven't had the opportunity to watch Heretic ships burn : off the shoulder of Orion. I haven't even got the chance to summarily : execute those filthy Insurrectionist saboteurs. I've always wanted to fight some Insurrectionists, honestly. It would be fun to play as an Orion sent on various missions before first contact. I was really disappointed in the Winter Contingency mission of Reach when it ended up being the Covenant and not the Innies. Fighting Insurrectionists at the beginning of the game and befriending them/working with them to fight the Covenant later on would have been an interesting plot IMO. : Not to say that won't come later, or that the new antagonist won't be
Had to fix that for you... Unless you were talking Firefly. But those guys weren't really ancient.... : I just want to know why that jetpack is there, but has never been used. Did
I don't really see the problem. The trailer is supposed to be a representative sample of what we will get in the actual game. If that requires the chief magically having a jetpack or boosters immediately out of the pod, then so be it. A trailer that's just over a minute long isn't meant to explain the reasoning, it's meant to get people excited, and I think it did a good job of it =) : Lastly, I would like to speak about the Skywalker Effect. A main character
Hey! Jedi aren't normal people/aliens/whatever! I'm sure with all the technology in SW they got rid of arthritis a long time ago! : It wouldn't be so bad if Halo 4 was a stand-alone game. The Bungie trilogy
That's an interesting idea, and in some ways preferable. I am glad that they've been up-front about it being a trilogy, though. Hopefully planning things this way from the start will make the story more cohesive than Bungie's trilogy. : Maybe it doesn't need it as badly as Star Wars, but I think Halo could use a
People say that a lot about SW, and yeah, it is a bit of a problem. However, in the last few years they've done a good job at branching out and telling different stories in different time periods with new characters (I still can't wait for SWToR). I'd love to see some new Tales books, though. On the subject of Halo, I don't think they've had much of a problem with original characters. We have ODST, Reach, Evolutions 1 and 2, Cryptum, The Cole Protocol, Ghosts of Onyx, etc. All of those works featured new characters for the most part. Halo 1-3 focused on the Chief and Cortana. I'm actually quite happy that we get to play as the Chief again, I think the four years, five by the time Halo 4 comes out, since Halo 3 has been enough time without them (and much longer than other huge characters in other major franchises).
