Re: Rookie Speculation

In Response To: Re: Rookie Speculation (Grizzlei)

: Then again, why does every badass in the Haloverse need to be a supersoldier?
: Humans are granted remarkable daring and strength from birth and I don't
: think these stories lend much credibility to that truthiness.

I love that AfroRyan is providing some old school tin foil hat Bungie speculation here, but I sadly agree with Grizz 1, here. I think the "point" in so far as there was one in ODST was to tell a more human-centric story in every sense of that, meaning you play as a not-super human (vs. Spartan or Elite) and you have a story that centers around other humans and their camaraderie/teamwork during the war. They actually carried over the camaraderie/teamwork theme (if not gameplay) into Reach... and look how that worked out for Noble Team.
