Well.
*shrug*

i appreciate her fervor

i would prefer it if future questions asked by me weren't answered until i finish the game, though


K.

Regarding how the flood aren't scary, Bungie do a shit job of setting a tone in a game. The novels depict the war as how fighting an ultra advanced alien empire where one of te species capture and eat humans. Eat them like hot dogs.


As for the flood not being scary...

This motherfucker is like to disagree.



I'm sorry, but a giant tentacle monster isn't scary.

Stop watching hentai then.

Heading back in. So far, the nicest thing about this level is the fact that the scenery looks a lot prettier at night. Otherwise, I'm really not a fan of having to redo Assault on the Control Room all over again, but backwards.

I'm able to put aside my philosophical differences with the game for now, too, in favor of not ruining what could potentially be a good finisher for the endgame.



New topic: Favorite music.

As I mentioned earlier, Brothers in Arms is my favorite song in this game.

Cloaked in Blackness I my favourite song from the soundtrack. I think that might be the name of the anniversary remaster version, though.

Also, AOTCR is my favourite level. I'm a sucker for tanks, what can I say?

Brothers in Arms is my favourite song from CE too. Favourite song in the series would probably be Unforgotten from Halo 2 or 117 from Halo 4.

Of course, the entirety of Halo 3: ODST's soundtrack is up there too.

"flaming nipple chops"-Your host, the man they call Ghost.

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.

What more did you really want them to do for Guilty Spark to set tone? You had the mission start off in a foggy swamp with crashed gunships looping audio signals, the covenant are running away in terror from something you can't see, there's friendly blips on your motion tracker but if you look where they come from there's nothing or a hazy figure in the distance, and once you finally get inside there's blood and corpses all over the place. I feel like that pretty definitively sets the tone for the mission and builds up for the flood's reveal.

Yeah, I learned that the hard way. -_- But I mean, credit where credit's due, I guess: The part where you kinda have to sneak between the crossfire of the Flood and the Elites was pretty cool. I kinda love how the game doesn't expect you to kill everything that moves--just what's in your way.



This stage is already looking better. I love the very beginning, where you see a grunt being chased by an armless zombie. I mean Flood. That's pretty funny.

All right.

Did I mention I'm liking this level so far? It's getting a little harder now, but that's because I'm starting to rush a little bit. Which, as I've learned, is a bad strategy unless you're just really good, which I'm not.

New topic: Favorite weapons.

There's not a whole lot of weapons in this game, but I still found myself picking favorites: The plasma pistol and the shotgun.

But are you still in it or nah?
I'm still in Keyes, yeah. I'd say I'm about halfway through with it.

Yeah, for being a "close-range" weapon, it sure has a lot of fucking range. Kinda like Half-Life's, actually.

I like using the Pistol and the Plasma Pistol. I found them both pretty fun to use, and they're available in nearly every mission.

Be warned, Halo: CE is the last time the plasma pistol is ever useful as a primary weapon.

Or the plasma rifle
Or the needler
Or the assault rifle (pre-halo 4)

Hey, hey, you know that dual needlers were the shit in Halo 2.
