Re: Best Line of the Whole Debate

In Response To: Re: Best Line of the Whole Debate (Hoovaloov) : That's not what I meant. The Flood was a problem because it literally was a : book version of the game. I was trying to say that the tone of the books : should feel like the tone of the game. Full of action and tactics, : mysteries and weapons. : For example, can you imagine what playing a game based on Primordium would be : like? Or Glasslands? Not very exciting. Now picture what playing a game : like First Strike would be like. That's all I was trying to say. Again, disagree, in as much as the books should feel like the game by dealing with the same subject matter. Games and books are different mediums, and one shouldn't try to imitate the other for the sake of sticking to a core subject. Likewise, I disagree that every piece of 'Halo' fiction should be military sci-fi for the sake of it. My problems with 'Glasslands', 'Cryptum' and 'Primordium' are with aspects of their stories rather than their concepts, so to speak.
