In Response To: Re: The Loftus Approach (Simpsons Rule) : But when I saw it docked in Reach , it didn't bring back any of that : emotion. It just confused me. It didn't make sense. : I get that there's a similarity, but realistically it'd be hard to put the
The Autumn is sitting upright with its front tier and much of its second tier sticking out over a very long cliff edge, with vast and rather apocalyptic plains stretching far into the distance, all set to a brownish colour scheme, and with the ship first shown to be on the cliff edge in this manner from its left side. The above describes both scenes. That's not just coincidence. I'm not saying it worked, though it did a little for me; I'm saying that that's what they were going for. If it worked as intended for you, we probably wouldn't be having this bit of discussion. :) : That seems a bit much don't you think? The Pillar of Autumn was around
I don't know how awesome it would have been to view a scene where Keyes engages the Covenant in space and communicates with Noble 6 via a comm channel. That (and pretty much all ways I've read of mostly preserving Reach while unifying it to other stuff) sound quite detached, actually. The connection is stated to be there, but the meaningful imagery is gone. It wouldn't be conflicting with things, but it would be less capable of accomplishing iots bold aims. Hence why nuke and pave isn't a terrible way to go. If you'd have to dumb something down to make it comfortable to the user within the implied framework, it might be better to do something else. I had the same problem with Halo 2. They can tell me that Arby was in command of the enemies from Halo 1, but if he hangs out with hammy Elizabethan actors (as opposed to anything resembling what I thought of as elites back in 2004) and never kills any humans, I'm just not feeling it.
