In Response To: Re: Headhunters #2 posted (Leviathan)


: Yeah, it is weird. I always thought it might be due to player's excursion
: into the cruiser in Floodgate (especially since originally it was supposed
: to be a much larger level, and Cortana a smaller one, if I'm not
: mistaken). I think Bungie wanted those Covenant interiors to be an updated
: look of the original cruiser's designs from Halo CE and ended up just
: re-using those resources on High Charity in Cortana... as opposed to
: making ANOTHER set of pink and purple hallways and doors. :)

In all likelihood that is the case, though from a fictional standpoint, I wouldn't think too much of it myself and it would be quite reasonable to have some variety.

Fact is, in real life, its absolutely not the case that every single ship in the same class is identical to each other. Tweaks happen all the time, especially as better ways are found to put things together. HMS Invincible (R05) was 689ft long long, whereas HMS Illustrious (R06) was 686ft long. Illustrious was also about 2kts faster due to minor tweaks to the hull.
Both are Invincible-class carriers with only 2 years separating their launches, but they are not by any means carbon copies of each other.

Say if, for example, one cruiser might be frequently designated as a flagship with a Prophet on board. That certain efforts would be made to make the interior look more impressive and worthy of its role is entirely possible.
