And to this day, Door still believes he has valid opinions regarding Halo

because pretty much everyone who praises 343 praises their writing and story

you're expecting story fans to defend a multiplayer segment of the game

And the designs, jesus fucking christ. It's like they hired Square Enix to do the Spartan armor.
There would've been a lot belts and zippers on the Spartans then.

and turned Halsey from a conflicted "this is for the greater good" to generic mad scientist.

The only change is that we don't see SPARTAN-II from her perspective anymore, and thus aren't meant to sympathize with her or overlook the fact that she's responsible for the kidnapping, indoctrination, and deaths of at least 75 children. Sure, she sees herself as doing it for the greater good, but everyone else sees her as a mad scientist.
Now I'm just saying, but 75 children as the price to pay to save the universe is laughably nothing.

Maybe it's the 40k in me where 75 million deaths is chump change, but that's not really that horrific going by the body counts courtesy of the covenant.

It was pure coincidence that SPARTAN-II wound up winning the war against the Covenant. Literally nobody could have predicted an alien attack before the project was executed.

And even though it did end up saving humanity that doesn't change the fact that 75 children were torn from their families and put to work as experimental soldiers, if they weren't killed outright.

To say, 'nothing is true', is to realize that the foundations of society are fragile, and that we must be the shepherds of our own civilization. To say, 'everything is permitted', is to understand that we are the architects of our actions, and that we must live with their consequences, whether glorious or tragic.

And?
There were already millions dead and millions more dying was seemingly inevitable. 75 children being abducted as child soldiers to stop millions more deaths was worth it in the situation.

His point wasn't the number of kids she killed in the process. His point was that Halsey looked like a mad scientist to others, and rightfully so.
Kidnapping, indoctrinating and experimenting on kids isthe kind of thing a mad scientist would do.

Yeah, we knew her intentions were good and all, because we've had her viewpoint on the SPARTAN-IIs, but Kilo-Five isn't from her viewpoint.

Don't get me wrong, Traviss a shit, but the whole Halsey thing is actually fine.

I'd also add that the Spartans were not created to fight covenant They just happened to be around at the time. The Spartan program was initiated to put down human insurrectionists who wanted to be free of the UNSC and Earth, and that doesn't sit well with many.

Exactly. Thanks, Citrus.

Although, as my other posts indicate, I really do dislike how most of the Halo fandom is quick to pass the whole project off as a needs-of-the-many thing. It worked out in the end, certainly, but that doesn't make it any more morally white than it is.

Don't forget retarded hairstyles. If Square Enix designed Halo, if we still hadn't seen Chief's face then we would've seen the taking off helmet scene that the Halo games have, but from behind and from a distance, so we would see Chief's blue and physics-defying hair would pop up when he removed his helmet. His hair would probably forma "117" or something.

And to this day, Door still believes he has valid opinions regarding Halo
I'll openly admit what I look for in FPS games is different from others

To be air, most of the MJOLNIR GEN2 armour designs do look like shit. I mean, I kind of like the newer Covenant and Forerunner stuff, but it took me a long time to get used to the new covenant.

But yeah, Halo 5 is stated (a guy on r/halo leaked it from the internal beta) to have 175 armours. There's no way you can get that kid of diversity without making a few bullshit ones.

175 armour combinations, meaning there's 175 helmet and body armour combinations
