In Response To: Re: ONI: Tragic Heroes (yakaman)

: This would be interesting. It's been pretty black/white from the Chief's
: (our) perspective for a while now. I think I'd like a shake-up, and the
: Chief as a flawed protagonist is intriguing.

: On a related note - how in the world did I just realize that Hunt the Truth
: is this good? Holy sweet shitballs, I started with Episode 1 on a whim and
: pulled by headphones off 2 hours later. This is really, really good.

: Some thoughts: * I'm sure Chief had a great reason for smoking people at that
: conference
: * Who might FERO be? An AI? Naomi?
: * I want to fight ONI. Vast possibilities for new enemy types.
: * The documentation thus far paints ONI as bad, and the UEG maybe as not so
: bad. Will the outer colonies care, or does ONI == UEG for them?
: * Deep space anomalies are mysterious. Do we think this is an existing entity
: (i.e. Forerunner or Flood), or something new? Theories? On a whim, what if
: it's a Forerunner group returning from another galaxy? Might they know
: that the Didact was awakened?
: * Voice acting is superb.
: * Presentation (music, news snippets, etc) is fabulous.

: Wow. Just...wow.
The only reason I’m a bit unsure about the direction 343 is heading is how it factors into gameplay. I don’t necessarily want to spend a game killing humans, on the other hand at some point if you shy away from it, you undercut your storytelling (like how ridiculous it was that the Arbiter never fought humans in Halo 2.)

Certainly, I can’t imagine that fighting humans all through a Halo game would be that interesting, because the aliens and robots and Flood offer a lot of variety that you don’t get with “conventional” opponents.
