Venom Kwan has returned... A SOLDIER TO SURPASS MJOLNIR
lmao IKR
I think she might be affected by her genetic memory and turning her into psycho.
can't wait for liquid Kwan to appear and fight venom Kwan
cause we cant have characters with good writing anymore cause so many directors choose activism instead of entertainment...😢
NO THAT IS NOT SOLID KWAN
What blows my mind is that Forward Unto Dawn came out 15 years ago on a fraction of this budget and is exponentially better is almost every aspect of this show
Bro i was thinking the exact same thing. That movie gets cheif way way better than this. His voice is really good too.
I will take Nightfall over this crap
Yea budget is like seasoning no amount will make a turd taste better
@@Shadowpack95oof don't say that lmao
@@xSupajesusXnightfall wasn't bad
Get rid of Kwan and Makee, and get rid of the weird ass Shamans. Add Johnson as a B plot and please write a more accurate Master Chief from the books.
Too late for any of that unfortunately
Were it so easy...
But Masterchief's mission now is to combat female oppression😨
If they wanted to add a Kwan character they could’ve just used Roselle from Oblivion. And made two episodes for that book and at the end of the episode we can see a young Chief without his armor being debriefed by the legendary Admiral Cole and why he respects him so much to set up a future ep. Then have the 2-3 next episodes from Silent Storm which tells you how John became the Master Chief as well as introduce Johnson and ODSTs as they embark on a mission together. Then one episode for Admiral Cole’s last stand showing the most bad ass UNSC space win in the series. Then go into the Fall of Reach etc.
you haven't read the books in your life
There’s covenant in the ramen
Parangosky's casting was perfect, honestly
hahaha that line was actually quite good I'll give them that
It’s the winter CRINGEtingency
"Sir, giving the fanbase back their show"
"But what if you miss?"
"I will."
That was so dumb. I couldn't help myself but curse at paramount when she said that.
If we do see Operation Torpedo in the show I imagine it'll be in the episode titled "Thermopylae", just seems fitting with the whole "300 Spartans on the suicide mission" vibe lol
OH DAMN good catch, I didn't put 2 and 2 together!
That will only happen if someone looks at the source material and seriously writes the episode PROPERLY
@@TheBKnight3 Not holding my breath
@@TheBKnight3grow up
@@TheBKnight3 Yeah soooooooo, it won't.
Time to give the Covenant back their boom boom
Master Chief, u mind telling me what ur doing in that Covenant bathroom?
Sir, recreating Season 1 Episode 7 Scene #47
Where it so cheesy
@@HiddenXperiaSir finishing this dump.
what if you miss?
Can we give it to Kwan and fight the ship by hand? Seems worth it
The fact the show has the covenant on reach and no one is constantly talking about the covenant. Reach was the last stronghold before earth . Wasnt over half of humanity dead at this point? The idea we'd focus on petty side stuff rather than the extinction event at their doorstep blows my mind. This could work if we were in the early stages of the war. The covenant on reach was pretty close to the end.
War has been going on for a while and the season starts with outer colonies being destroyed with reach being the strong point of humanity it’s not showing that fact but it’s there
Close to the end? It practically was the end . What was it three weeks or so until the piller of autumn found halo then few weeks on halo , then operation first strike after that was beginning of halo two . We pretty much at the end of human covenant war . That's what I don't get though everyone knew about the covenant before reach . So there's a lot of missing Intel between seasons I sure hope they don't do a time stamp type thing were they go to events between episodes
The timeline is fucked in the show. The war’s be going on for decades, but large swaths of the UNSC empire is still oblivious to what’s going on. Even outer colonies like Madrigal didn’t fully appreciate that the covenant was real, until it was too late.
@@a_waff1es_0pinion76yeah but its stupid because the UNSC knew about the Covenant since Harvest in like 2525. Crazy how the character that had an entire novel written about his backstory and the introduction of the bad guys is the same guy nonexistent in the show. Idk why tf they made Keyes black instead of just having Keyes be the expositional character he is, and then having Black Johnson. The show blatantly ignores everything except for what it picks and chooses and thats the downfall of it
@@trup1aya4rea1 Not to mention Harvest was only glassed 6 months prior to Reach in the show's timeline
It was the Ackerson scenes in this episode that really stood out. And Bill Paterson cameo!
Loved him in this ep
You say cameo, but I can’t find him anywhere online in relation to halo. Call me a scrub, but did he voice someone I’m not aware of in the games?
The best part of the season was the casting of Ackerson, they absolutely nailed it.
Agree
Ackerson's actor is also a longtime Halo fan too.
@@troopergio they made him so easy to hate, which is exactly how he is in the books.
Agreed. I've never seen this Joseph Morgan guy in anything but he steals every scene he's in.
Apparently he is a fan of the games and claims to have played 1 - 4 in co op with his brother and told his agent to put it out there that he's interested in any roles in live action Halo movies/TV shows.
He was also massively nervous during filming, which is pretty incredible considering his character oozes confidence from every pour.
Also, has anyone noticed how similar his voice is to the Prophet of Truth in Halo 2? I think they should get him to voice that character in any and all future adaptations of Halo. 🙂
I said this Season so far is noticeably better than Season 1, but it's better in the sense that getting kicked in the baIIs is better than getting stabbed in the baIIs...
😂😂😂😂
Honestly not even that big of difference either.
Its like getting punched in the balls is better than getting kicked in the balls
@@johnleeka3282 fax!..the show is still garbage
Kwan: an untrained teenage delinquent whose trying to play hero commando kills a bunch of experienced armed pirates (who were slower to react than jul m’damas bodyguards)with a kitchen knife
My mind: The force is strong with this one
Kwan was trained by rebels and then later that weird shaman group. And even still a lot of her fights she mostly gets through with surprise and luck.
Metal gear kwan?
As a Halo 3 grunt said "Taunting the demon, definitely qualifies, for a RUKTING!"
And as another halo 3 grunt said "He swells up when you taunt 'em."
@@Groggyracer Lmao true!!!
@@Groggyracer The Halo 3 grunt also said "Hey, Demon! The jerkstore called and they're all out of you! Poor you! Stolen at the age of 6 and conscripted into the military, wahh! Okay look! You let me live, I've got the Fist of Rukt! Look... I'll be at the bottom. I'll polish your boots. I'll polish your helmet! It's the gas! *nervous laugh* When I'm on the gas, I don't know what I'm doing half the time."
The Rubble arc looks and sounds like something that'd fit perfectly in the Expanse, but it looks like Kwan has gone to the MGS universe, been trained by Big Boss, and come back to this Halo universe.
It sounds a bit better, but Chief needs to be Chief, and please showrunners, learn how militaries operate.
oh yeah it's 100% some expanse shit, I kind of get why they wanted to include such a timeline in halo for the casual viewer but no actual fan of the games wants that angle. the casuals probably enjoy it though.
Hey don't shit on the expanse like that. No character in that show has the plot armor to just casually take out an entire crew with a knife lmao
@@SuperCrow02 I like the expanse lol
though I'd say Clarissa Mao has that ability to a lesser extent.
@ArgentWolf95 true, but Clarissa Mao has those augments in her body that can allow her to kill a room full of men in a second. Afaik Kwan doesn't have that
@@atomicspartan131 yeah, so I don't mind her. I even found her likeable and her redemption is a good story. It helps that Amos's own character development went from amoral killer to a guy who learned to be good.
Bobbie Draper does do some stuff I think is nonsense though I like her. She's practically an ODST.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who audibly sighs at the Kwan/Rubble scenes. God forbid this show gets renewed for season 3, can you imagine how it will be tie in? We'll be landing on the beach to search for the Silent Cartographer, then the scenes change to Kwan's reclaimer storyline, then it will cut back to the beach with all covvies dead instead of actually showing us the battle
To me, it seems like the show runners sort of want to turn Kwan into like an Aria from GOT type to character with her becoming ruthless but I’m still not convinced it has a place in this show.
I think at a minimum they want to make her and Soren's kid into candidates for Spartan IVs or something.
It has no place in Halo. In the grand scheme of things, if the Covenant went specifically into fighting, they would have wiped out humanity. The humans were so on the ropes that nobody gave a freak about all this GOT stolen subplot. If you were a human in this war, you’d be willing to hug your mother’s murderer, is how bad the humans were losing.
@@scottwatrous If they make kessler turn into Locke... not a bad idea right? Great side story with future connection
@@tashin9197 yeah that could certainly work.
Arya Stark, Rey, we've seen this all before.
If there is 1 single moment i hope we see at somepoint
It is as the Pillar of Autumn is leaving Reach we pan down to a Single Spartan watching the ship leave
That spartan being Noble Six
That in my eyes would be the best ending for the Season
I would cry like a little bitch.
If Noble team ever makes an appearance, and 343 or Paramount ruins it, I will personally knock down their door and tell them to leave our game alonne.
As much as I wanna see Six in live action, I don’t think Noble will fit into the story, unless during the invasion Halsey breaks out and somehow orders noble team to extract Cortana out of fleetcom or wherever Ackerson has her to deliver to the autumn, somewhat similar to the games.
I hope Reach is done by the end of episode 4 otherwise it's gonna be years before they get to Halo.
Too bad the Halo Universe refuses to acknowledge any existence of N6 whatsoever in any way outside of Halo Reach and toys. They completely ignore Noble 6 and killed the Rookie off in a book
That scene with Ackerson and Keys was great fucking acting. Best of the series so far
I cheered when Keyes told him off
my favorite scene was at the end of episode 2 S1, where chief puts his helmet on and does the nod and turn. shit made me go wild
Dude fr!!!!
To be fair, it being better than season one, isn’t a very high bar
The show is good, stop coping & admit it.
@@reddishcarp1237no it isn’t bro
@@reddishcarp1237 it’s called Halo yet it barely feels like Halo, curious.
@reddishcarp1237 if I hadn't played the games and read the books, and haven't been doing so from the age of four to twenty, I'd agree, if it was just science fiction 101 I'd agree, but it's not, it's halo, and only by title and character names is it halo, everything else is just loosely based. Calling this show halo is like calling cocaine bear a documentary, very loosely based on the source material.😂
@reddishcarp1237 this isn't Halo, its *extremely generic* sci-fi with a Halo skin slaped on, and the show writers are directly hostile towsrds any who point it out.
1 day well have an official real Halo tv show... One day...
I feel like season 6 through season 10 of rvb do a pretty good job of being a halo TV show. It doesn't adapt the games storyline but it parallels it in alot of ways and uses halo visuals.
@@arthand7672Red vs. Blue will never be anywhere close to being actual Halo.
Something that bugged me about RvB as they went on was that they tried to use Halo elements in their own universe that had extremely little if anything to do with actual Halo. It was Halo in appearances only and they should have branched off from Halo or not tried to incorporate Halo’s main story into it.
@@D00dmanshouldn't you be on your mission to destroy the shagohod and kill the boss ?
@@D00dman I personally felt like the director was a Halsey stand in. Maybe I'm wrong and it was unintentional, but him and the freelancer project and what he was doing with AI felt like it was supposed to mirror what Halsey and oni were doing before the war when trying to stop the insurrection. The human enemies they fight as well may not be insurrectionists, but they're alot more like them then the covenant. My biggest problem had always been that they treated it like a post Covenant war thing and not set the prequel seasons during the insurrection as they could have easily made him out to be another Halsey like asshole they're giving money to to crush the innies.
And honestly, I feel like it's more accurate then most videogame adaptations we get. It seems like most times they slap a name on a generic script
its so damn close. If they just deleted kwans storyline and tightening up master chief a bit I think it would be pretty good.
Halo the show where hand signals call for praise
It sounds like the new director is steadily changing course of the show rather than doing a sharp change, to prevent confusion of those who have not played the games and read the books.
Yeah this episode feels like they're clearing up the last of the BS from last season and onto the new direction. I'm OK with that. Would have been OK with all that happening in the first episode.
If you didn’t play the game or read the books this series shouldn’t be catered to you.
@TheSenatorSam I have played the games.
? it could be people that havent watched could enjoy this and then search out the games @@TheSenatorSam
@@TheSenatorSamI disagree. The people who have played the games and read the books have those mediums to experience the show. For them, those were their introduction. Adapting Halo into a tv show is literally a way to introduce Halo to a new audience who wouldn’t or couldn’t have experienced it before
Hidden Xperia, you are Halo now. You’re all we have left. Honestly, I turned on the first Episode and I was shocked at how much I didn’t care. I wasn’t mad, I just turned it off half way through the show. It now isn’t even worth being interesting background noise. It’s a really bad show. However, seeing you guys react to it makes my day. Keep up the good work man!
Hey to be fair season 2 is somewhat an improvement
@@jakespacepiratee3740 I agree. Somewhat but still not enough for me to watch it. I have nothing but love everyone involved, but I can’t get into it. 😔
@@ibroughtreceiptsnothing but love to the freaks who graped 🍇 master chief 😢
Ayyyyy appreciate that chief, glad I could offer some semblance of enjoyment for this show lmao
That was my reaction when the show was first announced. I just went "eh" and carried on with my life.
Still can't quite believe that people are still banging on about it.
I get why HiddenXperia is, he needs Halo content for his Halo channel, but from any regular non-CZcamsr it's bizarre.
Are you all truly that hooked and addicted to IPs and social media outrage? Can you not see that when something is shit you stop engaging with it? Not stay and hope against hope that it's gonna get better? Good lord...
Ive been a fan since halo 1 helped me repair my relationship with my dad, and i have thoroughly enjoyed both seasons. I went in with the expectation that the show was going to be different and i haven't been disappointed yet
Why do I get the feeling from after reading your comment that you sound a lot like Butter’s from South Park. After he went to see Indiana Jones the crystal skull while everybody saw Indiana Jones getting raped he was the only one that didn’t seem to pay attention adding on that he thought the movie was pretty good.
I think the witch's have trained kawan because she was supposed to be next proctor of planet. That would explain her skills now.
Or possibly Sorren himself trained her a bit.
What a wasted storyline. She was all hyped about learning that she is to be the protector of Madrigal at the end of Season 1, then at the start of Season 2, it's just noted in passing that Madrigal was glassed. Sounds like they really wanted to just throw that storyline away, but they were forced to keep Kwan's character.
That's what I think, her combat abilities are not a problem for me cause she must have been trained at some point by the mystics on Madrigal or by Soren, it's the entire storyline that's so fucking boring and out of place, Sorens too
@@alejandroavendano6541I’m ok with it, it’s all leading to reach so the next time we see quan it will be her heading to reach
Can’t wait to hear about her death
Bro impressed with hand signals 😳
He's trying to take anything they give. My man's desperate for good halo. I get it.
@@onslaught147 We don't want our favorite IPs to suck
3:45 - Trust me, it's better this way than having 3 episodes of her training.
Take that 😂😂😂😂
I feel like I missed something. Didn't she end up with a monitor on some random planet or something in season 1?
@@UndeadReikon she did, she was back on her home planet where she joined witches (cause you know halo has these) and they had a Monitor that came out of a well. But the planet was mentionned as glassed so guess we’ll have some flashback about that or boring dialogue explaination, anyway. Already calling it she is going to become either the pirate queen or the spartan 4 commander and either way I just wish they glass her ass Reach style before any of that happens
that is an excellent point
I'm glad the show is actually making the Covenant actually seem like a threat. I hear the next episode is supposed to be exactly what we want, but we'll see.
Seriously, a lot of fans would easily let some of the story problems slide if the show gave just a single episode that was just Spartans and Marines fighting Covenant. Marines giving their banter, Spartans working together, Grunts showing their flamboyant attitudes, Elites trying to keep the Grunts in line. No Rubble, no UNSC corruption. Just give them some MacGuffin that they have to get through hordes of Covenant to retrieve.
It would solve so much of the backlash.
It would be very interesting to see a graph of people like halo that watched season 1amd are also watching season 2. What’s the drop rate of the actual fans? I love HiddenX, but I’m not watching season 2.
Good question
I agree. At this point it doesn't matter what they do. Season 1 is so bad that it can't be forgiven.
I will at most watch 30 second clips of cool visuals but ain't no way I'm watching this season at all. Shit I stopped watching season 1 after episode 2
Its increasing internationally, yall are our laughing puppet.
whats weird is there are small channels giving positive reviews and if you leave a comment questioning any of the bad writing or inconsistencies they attack you and don't counter any of your arguments.
I know this won’t happen for a long time, but I have a dream to make an cinematic adaptation of the Forerunner Trilogy. I consider it Halos LOTR Story, and it won’t be a non-canon spinoff in the Silver Timeline, it will be in what I call the *“Platinum Timeline”* also known as the *Canon Timeline.* my only worry is that general audiences might not be interested in a series of Halo movies without Master Chief, which disappoints me as Halo is so much bigger than just John. I’d also probably have to add a bunch of action scenes as audiences might also get bored during the long conversation scenes. I’d explain the minor differences between the books and the movies as the memories of 343 Guilty Spark being slightly inaccurate to his preferred narrative, like Johnny Silverhands memories in Cyberpunk 2077
I would love something like that about the forerunner. Just as long as it’s a new perspective of the trilogy and not one to one.
@@kylerbryant3772 well yes of course it wouldn’t be exactly the same, that’s the nature of all book adaptations. But I do want to be very faithful to the source material so it can feel like it fits in canon. I’d probably have to add some action scenes as that is what audiences would like and expect when it comes to Halo. I’d imagine it would start on the final battle of Charum-Hakkor and the end of the Human Empire, then a time jump forward to Bornestellar.
The horror part in visigrad makes me want something horror related in halo. I’d kill for something with the flood or whoever
Kwan probably has the serum that the one ODST took during a Covenant takeover on his ship
“How did Kwan take down those pirates?” Did you…watch the episode? She was tapping the rail with the knife, and taking them down one at a time
The rubble stuff feels like it is ripped from the Expanse
It's a shame because the concept of the Rubble is an interesting one imo
@@johnk.7523 it is it just doesn't seem to fit with the other storylines. Also kwan is lame. The whole rubble arc should have just been Soren.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks so. "We have Belters at home" lol
Keyes: "MasterChief, I'd like to know what the hell you think you're doing?"
MasterCheif: "Sir, just delivering back their bomb...sir."
That’s lord hood
"Sir, permission to leave the station."
For what purpose, Master Chief?
"Halo 2."
.....permission granted.
@@Asmokedetector He butchered that one 😂
Pretty sure Keyes was dead at this point
@@austink4712oh keys was super ultra hyper dead. He got killed, Turned into a proto gravemind, then got his head punched in. Then I think the covey cruiser he was in got blown up but I'm not sure, then the ring got blown up.
I feel like Sgt Johnson has a better chance of being alive and he got lazered by a ball, tossed into an infinite pit Palatine style, and then got Ringed.
that spartan 3s shot has me in stitches all the time. one of them has his literal neck guard missing for his costume
I fast forward through any of the Rubble scenes, lol. Could of easily replaced that ark with the spartan's initial training and still kept Soren's arc
Sorens kid gonna become Spartan locke, just wait and see!!!!
Locke is already an adult during the fall of Reach
Yes , BUT this show doesnt like to follow the actual story at all. Its like a spoof of what we all know about Halo. @@mercury2157
@@mercury2157 That only holds if they are following the actual lore but we've already seen that being thrown into space
@@mercury2157 is he? Damn I thought I was onto something lol
Why do people call him “Spartan” Locke. Just call him Locke
That twist with parangosky was real cool
It has momentum, A big part I feel is the sound editing the Spartan footsteps Would help so much
Just finished watching myself, so perfect timing!
“ You are on of our treasured most instruments, long have you lead your fleet with honor and distinction, but your inability.. to safeguard Halo.. was a colossal failure. “
“ Nay! It was Heresy!
The guy who played Keyes gave a pretty good performance in this episode. Also can we please appreciate that f-bomb he dropped
Except the part about him having a beard.😒😒😒 The fact that he was promoted to Admiral🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
@@monkeycat48 I will admit that him going from captain to admiral with in 6 months is kinda stupid
Your reaction to the opening shot of the rubble was my EXACT reaction. I was like bruhhhhhh noooooo
Babe wake up HiddenXperia uploaded!!!
You have no "babe"
Did I miss any reference to Chief considering Reach his home? Also does it bother anyone else that there is a severe lack of space ships( naval power) in this show?
The part where the ONI squad get the drop on Spartans...wtaf???!
yeah it made like 0 logical sense whatsoever lmao
I really think as we get closer to the fall of reach and the Pillar of Autumn jumping out the writers are trying to get closer to the lore that most know and thats from Halo CE. If thats the case then I’m all here for it. Episode 3 was surprisingly very well written.
If you pay close attention to the tapping , you hear when it stops (she’s killing one of the crew) and when it resumes (to do it again).
I watched this episode because of the way the last episode ended, I'm glad I did, needed a bit of closure
I’m exited for the next ep personally
Glad to hear this is going better!!
Do you not remember the Venezia parts of the Kilo 5 books? The stuff on the Rubble is almost exactly that. It absolutely is Halo.
I love the funny Halo 2/3 ring music while explaining the Rubble plotline 😂
I’ve just started listening to audio telling of Halo the flood and I‘m really enjoy it it’s interesting getting more story from Halo 1 then after that I’ll start first strike
Lanternside?
It's showing promise of becoming the first ever Halo fps/soap opera combination.
It already is. Most of the show already is mostly about them talking about their feelings.
I love it when they said Master Chief's 'interactions' with the prisoner. 🤣
The whole “it’s a soft reboot” was a straight up lie to get us to watch again. Nothings changed. It’s still focused on random characters and plot lines with Spartans that don’t act like Spartans.
The rubble stuff actually wasn't bad this episode, clearly they're dropping it because they're all heading away to reach potentially. As for chief they're clearly trying to build his character to be more of what he's known for in the games, he's evolving more to that with each episode I think and in the armour he appears to actually behave like chief much more.
@@morgannull4685 would be much faster if the covies found rubble and destroyed it along with EVERYONE there lol
I like to now call her Jason Kwourne
She's now Kwan Wick
@@noob7220 😂
2:51, I will say, having their 'visors' just be covered in shadow, and when the light is shone on them, they're just pitch black, is a really damn cool visual. It works especially well as a parallel / mirror to the golden / orange visors of the Spartans.
The idea is lost a little because Silver Team already have that black / grey military aesthetic, but still. It's nice.
We need an actual Halo fan to create a Halo series similar to Halo Forward Into Dawn
The writing in this episode is pretty on-point. The exchange between Ackerson and Halsey is genuinely really well written.
You clearly know very little about storytelling & script writing
and what do you know? what show movie have you made?@@SolarCrunch
I'm literally thinking that Quan and all the mystic shamans have something to do with forerunners, like Quan is gonna be one of the humans that have a forerunner stored inside them. It's unfortunate but I think it's where they are going with it. Reclaimers or something
Which is a bunch of BS if that happens. Because when Bungie made Halo they admitted themselves how very detailed the entire story is and how all humans are reclaimers literally as an entire species reclaiming the mantle
Remember her fathers father fathers father... was chosen to protect Madrigal by a Forerunner AI...I think.
@@Wuunderboy you're absolutely right but they don't seem to wanna take the established lore without twisting it all around to make the first season make sense. But I agree, Bungie laid this all out for them and they still got it wrong somehow.
@@antonycharnock2993 I'm thinking something along those lines as well
@flaw117 Bungie even made the 3 original books the fall of reach, first strike and the flood to go even deeper in case you played the games but wanted to know more. These people being hired to make Halo today are purposely being chosen under the qualification of "if they hate halo."
just finished this episode. I liked it, even though not alot happened.
The second this episode cut to the ruble i fell asleep.....i woke up 40min later having to rewatch again from where i was last conscious 😅
I enjoyed this episode more than the entirety of Halo 5's story. And I covered that game for a LIVING. The Alzheimer's hit home. What an emotional format of storytelling I did not expect.
I actually felt for Ackerson in this episode.
I'd like to know why Ackerson had to kill his father though? I'm confused
@@Luckygems98Cuz he knows only the strong will survive what's coming and doesn't want him to see Reach (that he helped build) get destroyed
@@antonycharnock2993yeah but then saying he only cared about moving up kinda conflicts with him being a caring person as he was shown. But still it makes him complex which I like.
because he has to make a sacrafice. His dad wanted this and made him swear to kill him before the covenant got him@@Luckygems98
Hey. Make a video on "What if the Flood was in Red vs Blue"?
or "What if the events of Red vs Blue" actually affected the Halo timeline
When we first cut to the ruble in episode three, I noticed that the shot was a shot used in season one
All in one take but on the rubble following a random pirate trying to find his dog.
2020: Waiting for HiddenXperia to become the Dave Filoni of Halo.
2024: Still waiting.
Why does it impress you that they’re using hand signals? They have personal in helmet coms. These are talked about all the time in the books. Halo fans are becoming the new Star Wars fan, just making endless excuses to try to like a show that is very obviously bad and not researched.
Hey HiddenXperia I dont know if you noticed this but you can encounter a marine named Corporal Perez in Halo 2 in Metropolis before the Scarab takedown. I think he also had a role in the Halo 2 demo.
“Now we go to the rubble, everyone’s favorite place in the TV show.”
“NO GOD NO PLEASE NO, NO, NO… NOOOOOOOOOOOO-“
I only watch the scenes with the Spartans and fast-forward all the side stories. Makes it like a 20 minute episode show. Makes it bearable
13:28 So it's going to be the Halo show's equivalent to Infinite's cutscenes?
I gotta say, Jacob Keyes really shines in this episode, and i look forward to seeing more of him in future episodes!
All this talk about Big Boss and Snake makes me want a Hidden X style MGS lore video
That gay scene was fucking unnecessary like wtf
It was necessary to get those sweet sweet DEI bucks.
Thanks to Koga and A2AxPhoenix for supporting the channel!!!!
i love it and i will continue watching it
I grew up with Halo and have always loved it, but man, it's so sad how jaded I've become. I haven't played in over a year, and I only ever watched the first episode of the first season. It was just so terrible, it was the final straw for me. it makes me almost depressed thinking about how a bunch of soulless executives have taken my favorite franchise and made me lose interest in it completely. I don't even watch videos about Halo anymore, this sucks so much.
You say you don’t watch videos about halo anymore, yet here you are…
@@jakespacepiratee3740 I don't, this was the first one I'd clicked on in a while, what's your deal?
Bummer, so you lost interest in all of Halo because you watched 1 episode of Halo and didn't like it? That's a pretty dumb reason. There are some parts of the show I disliked, but that doesn't make me lose complete interest in Halo. I love Halo and will never lose interest in it since it's pretty much a pinnacle of my childhood. Hope you find something that'll gain your interest, dude
@@noob7220 The 1 episode was the final straw, going back to my comment I literally said that word for word, so idk, maybe read the whole comment next time?
go cry halo wont need you goodbye@@maginciajazmine9644
I feel bad for HiddenXperia. He has to cover a dying IP.
I must say. I haven't read any of the Halo books yet, so I don't know anything about Ackerson and his family in canon, but the scenes with him, his father and the flash clone were incredibly made, and in some aspects heartbreaking even.
There is a 2 part glitch on halo 3 that I found with a friend I have never seen anyone talk about. We did it in split screen.
Where the second skull is. You and the other guy do a combination of crouch jump and grenade jump on each others heads. You will get to the top of the concrete.
There is a death barrier there but you will respawn and trade places. As soon as you spawn he dies over and over. But keep running up the hill Trading deaths. Eventually you will get past the death barrier.
You will find an crashed pelican. Doesn’t seem to be used anywhere in game as far as we could tell. Going further past it you will find a area past it that will show your teammates screen and it’s trippy. It worked in co op split screen on the 360. Never tried it in mcc.
Can we talk about the fact that there have now been two episodes featuring Parangosky doing shady stuff and xperia hasnt talked about it at all? Does Xperia secretly work for ONI?
Xperia doesn't care about Halo lore unless it involves the Flood.
Ok correct if I’m wrong but there was only ever 2 space Pirates and she got them both from behind
I can definitely see that the show is trying to connect B plots like Soren and Halsey so hopefully everyone just is just on Reach by episode 4
I do wonder if they’re going to essentially write out Kwan across this season, we know the spartan 3s are coming later and in canon they were selected from those in the outer colonies orphaned by the covenant, or any one with a particularly vengeful streak. It would make sense if Kwan possibly ends up as one of those candidates having lost her home world, then would maybe die in something like operation torpedo having at least gained some shred of dignity for the character. Just an idea, however i do also think it’s wild she’s just suddenly some CQC expert, but at least she’s useful now(?)
I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they're gonna make Qwan into a Spartan candidate at this point lmao..
Just the vibes I'm getting from whatever her characters subplot even is and I really hope that isn't the case lol.
it was the decoy tactic with the knife tapping luring and disyracting randomly like some etzio kinda thing
Kwan is an expert at parkour. And she is the greatest martial artist that has ever existed. She also has magic powers in that cave where she was doing magical cave art.
Also, why didn't that bad women shoot them with the gun? How did kwan manage to stab the bad women before she could pull the trigger of her gun?
Straight up fast forwarded through all the rubble story
Allow me to explain your frustration and confusion with this series.
You expect this show's, or any other show's, writing to be logical and rules-based. Current TV/streaming series writers don't care about any of that--not just Halo, but any content mill streaming service show. Game of Thrones taught the current crop of scribes to write thematically, not logically. Consistency of character is less important than advancing the interplay of selected themes. For example, note the various types of object banging in this episode (finger tapping, door trying to close, knife tapping on rail, etc.) This is a clumsy implementation of the theme of the war drum, with the entire episode being a slow build up of war drums leading to the events of the ending. Note also who either starts the banging sound or hears the banging sound; Kwan performed the banging sound and killed the pirate crew, Perez heard (did not make) the banging sound and is being chased by war, and Pablo Chief heard (did not make) the banging sound and is being chased by ONI soldiers. I guarantee the entire writing team thought this was incredible and they were writing really good stuff, because this is how they think and how they approach their work.
You, and most others, want logically built up plots with rewarding payoffs; the writers want thematic plots that contrast different characters in different situations to explore said themes. The former is good for the viewers; the latter is good for the writers' careers. Guess which matters more.
Go into episodes pretending that you're watching the distant future of the Game of Thrones universe. It'll hurt less and make more sense.
Im pretty sure the showrunner/writers are trying to reboot or refresh kwans character and start as new as they can. Wiped her planet and the stupid magic well that leads to halo or something so now she has no purpose (which in an ideal world would be the end of her character) & now they see it as an opportunity to rewrite her story instead of cutting out completely.
Just hoping they get her to reach or something and get her killed off in some big battle.
Fingers crossed by end of season they trim the filler cast ready for halo
the hand signals were my favourite too
Did anybody notice the one tone/ beat/ rhythm that was being played through the entire episode?. It's the tone that's loudly annoying, the pirates and the scene, but it's played in different variations but in the same manner to the entire episode to make it very eerie, and atmospheric.
Did you not watch series 1, who was kwans dad, what was his role, what were his people like and how did they live? Knowing that pretty much answers where she got her martial skills from.
Kwan I would assume has some sort of special DNA implanted in her lineage from the forerunners. After meeting up with her ancestors that were speaking with the oracle, maybe they unlocked something in her as she is meant to be a protector of madrigal that is meant to open the way to halo.
It's not master chief, it's Jimmy Rings
Venom Kwan: Kept you waiting huh?
One of the things that i think they should have done is something similar to what Stargate Atlantis did with the ancient gene. Some people have this gene but the concentration being varied.
This would have been a good explanation as to why John and Makee, personally I think they should have given it to all the Spartans, can access forerunner tech.
This is just a thought, but maybe Kawn has something similar to that and her skills have 'unlocked'. No saying its good but just sharing some thoughts.
I fast forwarded thru almost the entire episode
