He was a popular character. I wasn't specifically referencing The Rookie when I made that statement IIRC.
I'm sure if I cared to read more of the lore I could pull up a few more.
That is literally never explained even a little bit. The most we get is "they're not outfitted like standard military."
You said important at first, so...You can't say one thing but mean another.
I know The Covenant Remnant in Halo 4 wasn't explained. I never said it was.
Snake: "343 never explained why we're fighting the Covies in H4."Lemon: "What's there to explain? They're not the same Covies as H1-H3."Snake: "And that's never explained in the game at all."Lemon: "I-I know that. ... Idiot."I'm honestly having trouble telling if you're serious or not.
Sorry.RIP in pistachios Rookie.
Notice how I never actually said the Covenant Remnant was explained in Halo 4?There's a stark difference between "what's there to explain?" and flat out saying they were explained in the game.

WHO KILLED HIM?

He's the only truly well designed self insert character in the entire Halo series [and Bungie games after MI]. Then again, we're probably not going to get anything quite like ODST in the future. I'd still rather have had the Rookie never mentioned again than have him killed, messes up player agency w/Rookie in ODST. Kind of the same reason why the Control ending in ME3 took a turn for the worse in the EC. New Blood as a whole was great though.

People bitch about 343i not explaining the Covenant in Halo 4 but Bungie did the exact same thing in Halo: CE and didn't explain their motivations until 2-3 years after.

Or at least, a more memorable Halo story. Nothing like this ever happens in the games, save Cortana.Who are noble team?Something that we should forget about.
