In Response To: The Watcher is Dead! (Pimpy™)

Another point about "The Watcher Is Alive" arguments... one point that people also seem to dwell on is a sound clip buried in the tags.gor file saying "what the hell--where'd he go?" or something like that. Does this strike anyone else as completely irrelevant to the debate? For whatever reason, Bungie saw fit not to put it into the game. It should therefore be no more a part of the discussion of Myth's plot than the beta-test arcade-game ripoff version of Ambush at Devil's Overlook. If the quote is not used in the game, it's not used in the game for a reason. The Watcher _blew up_ when the Berserks hacked him to pieces. There was no teleportation or any magic to keep him alive. Perhaps Bungie originally planned to have it work differently; if they did, that quote may have had significance. However, they didn't choose that path, and instead they chose to omit the quote and have the Watcher blow up. You can't claim that of a clip of sound that doesn't appear in the game itself is evidence.
