The boss walks in, there’s someone on the phone for you:
- Phone: “Hi, I’m the leader person behind that book/television/film franchise you complain about online and gee-whiz, you’re right! We want you to run things from here on out.”
- You: “Do I get supreme retcon powers?”
- Phone: “Of course! We’ll even retroactively edit in your changes!”
Huh, that was easy. What are you changing?
343/Microsoft should have let Bungie’s “ending” for Master Chief stay - Where chief saves earth but gets put into indefinite cryo as he is forever lost in space.
It would have put him full circle (as he was a superweapon waiting in cryo when the series started) and it would put him into a state not unlike the halos themselves, which I think was Bungie’s intent.
There are a lot of stories and things to explore within Halo’s universe and I would like to see more of those than bad-guy-of-the-week that Chief has to stop.
100%. I don’t mind the idea of a halo 4 it’s just that it didn’t have to be chief in it. 343 just uses chief as a crutch because they fundamentally misunderstand Halo
I did think bringing back the halo wars crew was a good idea i just wished halo 5 had nothing to do with it. Maybe continuing from there with Jerome taking the spotlight wouldn’t have been so bad
Also the TV show. It still boggles my mind how that fucking thing was made despite all the lore Halo has. But having a TV show or movie in itself wasn’t a bad idea. Following a crew of ODSTs through the covenant war would have been pretty awesome
