#HaloInfinite #HaloBanished #Halo - Hry
With the Banished returning IN STYLE in Halo Infinite, I figured now was a better time than ever to cover the entire history of Atriox's faction of warriors, enjoy friendos!
Ok
Can’t wait to see how they are to fight in first person. I hope they bring a lot of the new vehicles and weapons from Halo Wars 2 into infinite.
Love you man
I hope we get to board a Banished scarab that would be neat
Unsc rotot vs floods.
The banished in a nutshell: ape stronger together
Yes
True
planet of the apes here
Until C&C join the game in AU
*Engineer rush gaming*
Monke forever
“No one will be treated as tools”
Grunts: am I a joke to you
Yeah the grunts really have it rough. First they ruin their planet with climate change, then the Halos are fired, and they have to start over. Then they're enslaved by The Covenant, then even though The Covenant falls, they're enslaved by covenant remnants, including the Banished, which by nature is more brutal. (Spoiler)
And now they work for The Created, which at least is sort of by choice. They couldn't refuse it, but at least they knowingly embraced it.
@@EMoney0527 Wait.. the Created?? How did that happen?
The created are a galactic police force basically but they still want the organics to corporate, the grunts did and were rewarded
Reximous how to engrish?
@@Cyrribrae Ohhhh, I'm so sorry, I didn't realize some may not have read Halo Bad Blood yet. I should have put a spoiler warning.
I hope we get a Tartarus style boss battle and they don’t immediately kill off Atriox, the beginning of Halo 5 was a let down.
Edit: lmao
or a halo 4 style "final boss" like the ur-didact was.
I hope there is a follow up cutscene after the boss battle is beaten where we see a short animated fight. It kinda feels lame to see a major character just fall over ingame like any other enemy AI imo.
edit: I don't really want a boss battle or for Atriox to die personally. I just wanted to clarify.
@Adam Mueller I mean a boss battle where you actually fight the boss is still just pressing buttons.
@Adam Mueller True.
I don't want us to kill off atriox. He's a good enough enemy for the next games coming out. If there is a boss battle it should be against one of the generals
I actually like the banished way of doing things. The way that they recruit is almost admirable and I wish that they extended an invitation to the humans as that would be truly deadly if they accepted.
they do actually.
a large amount of humans would join too, i bet the rebels and reluctant spartans would be very useful to them.
meep deep oohhhhh. You know I love the thought of the future of this world where the cultures mix and eventually all of the alien species live together in some sort of society. This is not really related to my original comment but still and interesting thought.
@@pinstripe4254 Factions competing against each other is more interesting.
I think they might and the humans refuse and fight the banished, which is why in the audio teaser the brute calls out humans for their defiance.
“Atriox did something no one in the covenant has done before” (cries in grunt rebellion)
Atriox was the first who did it SUCCESFULLY
S B well some higher members of the covenants actually started respecting the grunts after their rebellion, didn’t change much but, hey, at least it’s something
He actually made it work. Of course, the Grunts can be defeated by throwing a bunch of legos on the floor, while Atriox actually put on some real armor. And shoes.
@@sb7798 Covenant just didnt cares about him, if Covenants really wants to crush Atriox, he stands no chance.
Sesa 'Refumee would like to have a word with you.
I've seen theory that since Zeta Halo is damaged, the Ark opens a portal to fix it and the Banished follow through. Atriox stays behind to make sure the Ark wouldn't fall into humanity's hand.
That makes a lot of sense
That actually kinda makes sense, I like it
@@HiddenXperia You should make a video on theory's on how the banished made it to zeta halo, and definitely include this one
@Mr.Tweezy007 wait what does Reach have to do with Zeta Halo?
Guess red team runs through the portal to see what is going on in the installation to find blue team and get them sent to the ark in an emergency to contain the flood outbreak on the ark.
Eh, banished seems like a cool guy, kills lots of covenant, and doesn’t afraid of anything
You just have a stroke?
they look cool too, the Brutes are awesome looking.
Funny joke dude, I'm a busy guy though so I can't laugh right now but I'll work in one later in my schedule.
Lololololololololol
Atriox*
I actually like how the Banished hold themselves together. They don’t force races into it, they don’t have the prophet’s lies or ONI’s manipulation, they just do what they do for their leader, and their survival.
I was gonna like but you have x117 likes and it seemed befitting to keep it at 117 as a nod to the Chief, Sierra 117😆🤘
The Banished are the very definition of the exiles taking over. A once seemingly powerless faction ended defeat the UNSC in such a short time that took the Covenant years to beat. It is one for an Empire to rise, but the most dangerous factions destroy those said empires. The Banished didn’t just outlived the Covenant, they surpassed it.
@@coletrain583 The UNSC wasn’t exactly at its strongest given Cortana’s little fiasco
Imagine a cutscene of the Arbiter and the Swords of Sanghelios facing off against Atriox and the Banished. Swords and hammers clashing would be such a mesmerizing setpiece
I bet Thel and Atriox know of one another , and I'm sure they would have some choice words to say to each other...over a duel. 😎
And a boss battle where you play as Arbiter against Atriox. The epic duel between the leaders of the Elite-led Swords of Sanghellios, and the Brute-led Banished. I so want this to happen in Infinite! 👌
" Were it so easy .. "
@@k.bermejo7334 Monkey against lizard like in the old good times.
@@GuiltySpark-kp8yb I never thought of the Elites as lizards though lol.
I feel like the Banished and specifically Atriox has made us start to admire and even love Brutes way more than we did before.... Which is why Arby is so desperately needed in Infinite, the OG Elites need to be remembered and loved again too!
who knows we might end up having three playable race's instead of two. human, elite's and brute's.
or I could be wrong.
@@zenthedying91 I hope you are right. It's what I wish for! Always been a huge Elite fan.
And half jaw
zen the dying man imagine an invasion game mode but between brutes and elites.
zen the dying I would love to play as one of the brutes. If elites and brutes have customizable armor to the extent Spartans do that would be awesome
*Banished become relevent again*
Hidden Xperia: "Hold My Beer!"
the virgin storm covenant VS *THE CHAD BANISHED!!*
That's not how you use the term "hold my beer"
@@holdguard4624 I'm sorry that I'm making a joke using this sentence inappropriately, I'll take notice in this mistake and fix it next time, I'm sorry if this affected you or anyone else in any bad way and I'll make sure to do better. Thank you for pointing out this mistake to me. Have a nice day good sir/lady/thing
@@jakespacepiratee3740 yes.
@@mattmatimateo what a reply love it
2:30 so basically atriox’s brothers were used in suicide missions like the 3rd gen Spartans . Imagine if the Spartan 3 had rebelled against the unsc just like the banished .
The disposable spartans were put into cryo though to be revived.
And the unsc did use them for that but you got to understand the spartan 3's where supposed to be the best (key word supposed to) so it makes sense why they were in the front lines
Imagine Arbiter taking on Atriox in the Halo Infinite Campaign
Don’t do that. Don’t give me hope.
I think Atriox will kill arbiter in the campaign
@@bloodranger1188 don't say that about the homie
Kiaran Brady i just feel like they will try and add a reason to hate him because only HW2 players will know him well
@@bloodranger1188
Don't do that. Don't give me fear.
“we are his will we are his legacy we are the banished” that is why the banished is my favorite halo faction
his*
The Necrons rise now
Halo Infinite Possible Enemy Factions:
-The Banished (confirmed)
-The Created/Prometheans (probably, since Cortana is being dealt with)
-The Flood (possibly, our only guess is the pug, lol)
It would be nice to see them all kill each other, maybe not idk.
Are the storm covenant still around?
No the storm covenant aren’t around but jul’s son has his own covenant group now
The Banished are definitely a great addition to the story. I like the theory of humanity, Swords of Sanghelios, and The Banished allying together to take on The Created and The Flood in all out galactic melee. If done up and built correctly it would be an epic conclusion to the story arc.
Imagine the terror in that Elite's mind when he tried to run his Energy Sword through Atriox...and Atriox caught his hand mid-strike.
This bastard is not to be messed with.
343 have to put the Silent Shadow in Infinite
Red plasma sword's for the win
i'm gonna cry if we get an FPS with the Banished and no Silent Shadow, especially after Silent Storm and Oblivion made a point of including them in the years following HW2's release
We need playable elites and have the silent shadows armor
We need a master chief vs atriox moment in halo infinite like how Locke and chief squared up in halo 5
Atriox pls no. That would be awful
Last time I was this early, the forerunners were still fighting the ancient humans
That intro always amazes me. Nice!
Juuuuuuuuuuust you wait till you see my new one... I don't think even I'M ready to see it
@@HiddenXperia 😳😳😳
@@HiddenXperia I hope it will be as I C O N I C as this one
@@HiddenXperia I bet it will be *Iconic*
Anyone ever noticed that when atriox stopped the executioner sword with his bare hand with the sword burning in his hand and he didn’t even seem to care about it😳
Badass!
There's seriously has to be a game based off on Atriox just like they did on The ODST .
@@RicardoPerez-rz8pu YES YES YES YES Y E S
I freaking love the banished design. Their vehicles, armor etc is amazing
It's a simple design philosophy, extra armor plating, and spikes. Yet it works really well, to convey what the Banished are, and how they work as a faction.
Looks like a combination of human, covenant and forerunner tech.
The "post halo ring yeeting portion" needs to be the official canon name for that part of the banished history
England is stronger than Scotland
As Buzz Lightyear once said:
To INFINIT(E)Y and beyond
Good reference
E
At first I was surprised that the UNSC didn’t try to ally with the Banished but then I remember that ONI exists
What does oni do?
@@h03b73 think of them as the CIA
“THE BANISHED ARE COMING! THE BANISHED ARE COMING!”
Your a legend Hidden, thank you for all of your hard work into making these fantastic videos for us!
Thank you so much friendo
The fact that installations 08 and 09 were built in a period of under 8 years goes to show you how much power the forerunners still hold
Bring Berserking Halo 2 brutes back so scary and hard to kill on Legendary.
I can’t imagine how amazing a Chief vs Atriox fight scene would be.
Doubt that would happen in infinite but it would be cool
Wouldn't be cool since Chief is guaranteed to win thanks to his plot armor(his luck).
Still wouldn't be better than Locke vs Chief. Best Halo battle ever
wa lets player It’s almost like he the main character that everyone plays as
You wouldn’t wanna fight him yourself??? Buggin
“We are the banished”
I still get chills in my spine
Very excited for this next installment to the franchise! This July event can’t come fast enough. Thanks for another amazing video btw!
I hope the Banished aren’t a copy of the Covenant when it comes to gameplay, make them similar but have the Banished be more unique.
Yeah and like Halo Canon pointed out, the Banished and Atriox are philosophically different than the Covenant and the Prophets. Like I'm pretty sure Atriox would accept humans into his Banished.
If you played halo wars 2, you know we will be fine.
Logan the Krogan Halo Wars 2 was a RPS game not an FPS. They may have been amazing in HW2 they could just be a clone of the Covenant in Infinite.
MR SNUGGLETONS I mean gameplay not story
Darth Vader I feel like it would make more sense if they were way more aggressive than the covenant especially as the brutes are way more sadistic and psychotic than the rest of the covenant
4:56 "Atriox did something that no other member of the Covenant had ever done before.. he resisted"
Grunts during the Grunt Rebellion: "Am I a joke to you?"
Right?
But atriox succeeded lol
Well technically they weren't members of the Covenant at that point
@@kobi7955 They were though. It just wasn't until after the rebellion that they were given a new level of respect and were put in battle with weapons alongside Elites as opposed to just serving as canon fodder
@@kobi7955 Neither was Atriox by that same logic
CZcamsrs: Man we really are struggling to stay afloat.
Raycon: I'm about to support this whole man's career.
Always great hearing Xperia happy to talk about mentionings of The Flood; his voice always changes appropriately to give them a proper introduction within a variety of conversations.
Decimus: Have you ever heard the Tradegy of Warlord Atriox the Wise?
Yap Yap the Destroyer: No
Decimus: I thought not. It’s not a story the Prohets would tell you.
I think it’d be really cool if the banished had their own ships designed just for them.
I hope not in _Infinite,_ unless they make it clear that the Banished have seized a shipyard, and the resources to use it.
"Don't let this fool you into thinking Voridus is some simple fool."
*watches Voridus unleash the Flood*
Oh, so he's not a simple fool, he's a complete idiot.
He could've been worse. He could have been the Prophet of Mercy for trusting Truth.
One day, i saw a bowl placed upside down on the table. I thought there's food in there so i opened it up, only to find out there's a cockroach trapped in there.
Robin Toledo You forget the part where someone told you there was a cockroach under there.
@@Cheoo Well, no one did. The question now is, whose fault was it? The one who placed it there and didn't bother to warn me about it; or me who just casually moved something on the table, which posed no real threat to me?
Robin Toledo Well there were rumors about something being in the bowl and someone warned not to mess with it. I wouldn’t say you would be a complete fault, as you had no real evidence.
0:31 poor marine
NGL The raycon bit involving the primordial was quite hilarious.
Ya know, I definitely could see some humans joining the Banished ranks. In the midst of Cortana's AI Overlording its not hard to imagine that there will be some human groups that are scared and feel helpless since a large majority of the UNSC is keeping a down low on their operations and movement with Cortana around. If the Banished were to show up and offer humans a fight against Cortana, maybe even with some tech that gives them an edge over Forerunners, I think some humans would side with them.
I like how Halo Wars 2 made the Brutes more three dimensional, showing they can be clever and creative and not just completely focused on bloodlust and easily manipulated, whilst still maintaining differences from the Elites. It makes them much more of a threat.
I wonder if an Atriox vs Arbiter fight would begin with Atriox respecting Thel for killing Tartarus or not. I assume Atriox wouldn't have thought highly of Tartarus, who was basically just Truth's right hand man.
I didn’t get a CZcams notification but thank the Precursors I’m in the discord so I got the announcement
Yeah it seems YT notifications are going out pretty slowly today
Yeah, this isn’t the first time it’s happened and it unfortunately, probably won’t be the last
Lmao..
Precursors are kind I see ☺
@BeastModeJelly most of the time...
Ok, I never played Halo wars 2 but, I still believe that if the spirit of fire crew tried to negotiate with the banished, they could have been amongst humanities strongest allies that would definitely been needed against Cortana and her fleet of Guardians and (maybe) the return of the flood from outside our galaxy
The two brothers are my favorites. As they may have been the main stars in the Banished Story DLC. Yet they had a lot more personality and showed that the Banished aren't full of mindless bloodthirsty Brutes and other aliens. Yet the two are shown to be very smart and very cunning. Even if they had to clean up a Flood Infection...one of the two accidently released. After being told TO NOT GO INTO THE SHIP! lol
The last time I was this early, everyone thought that noble 6 was still alive.
Wait... Was he confirmed dead???
Don't you know the point of the new book is to add him to blue team?
As far as I’m concerned, he’s dead(yes, he, he is confirmed in canon to be male). While we never see a decisive hit on him to kill him, the fact that he was swarmed and that the planet was undergoing the glassing process, leads to him dying. There is no way 6 is alive. Would I want it? No. He died the most perfect way he could, a Lone Wolf died a lone wolf
Well Spartans never die
Yeah
That's neat. I don't know the lore well outside of the main series games, and I didn't know the Banished had been already introduced before Infinite. It's cool, makes their intervention in Infinite less random.
It could be that the banished first went to Reach, then learned of the ark and potential ways to reach it. He then might have left his frigate and a large enough force on reach while he to the majority of his army to the Ark.
Thanks for the shoutout HiddenXperia! :) Great video! :D
i really hope we get to see let volir more, his design looks like the elite councilor and i love it
I hope they make the Banished even more of a threat. As much as they played them up, I found myself dissatisfied with them as a real danger to the Spirit of Fire, and therefore the UNSC. I *want* them to kick ass and take names.
This is really an ICONIC video and I really hope that with the Banished, their great scarab will arrive and it will be drivable. And I really forward to your interview with Marty.
What is cool about Banished is you playing those guys struggling against The Flood in Halo Wars 2 but later you must fight them as the enemies in Halo Infinite.
I can already tell that I’m going to be throwing my controller across my room when the fight with atriox on legendary finally arrives
Love these lore vids
"Atroix had done what no one in the Covenant have done before, he resisted."
[ANGRY FAL 'CHAVAMEE NOISES]
"...being the only faction to ever stand up to them"

Refumee however, isnt leading a still alive faction...or being alive
What about the heretic in halo 2 if he survived he would have definitely joined the banished

Ok
Wow I’m coming back to halo from a long hiatus and it seems brutes are now white guys, and we’re fighting basically Nazis I guess? White armor, white face paint? The leaders clearly don’t resemble apes, they resemble thanos who also has distinct white people features. Great writing 👏 bravo. I guess everything nowadays has to be dumb dumb polarized political posturing.
First Order: Who are you?
Banished: I'm you, but stronger and way better.
I rarely comment on videos but just wanted to say that yours are amazing! Especially your lore videos!
I think we're going to see the silent shadow in Halo infinite. A cool boss battle to test their metal.... and Chief hasn't had a worthy opponent for many years
Ah my favorite faction thus far in this new halo generation, you do me such an honor Xperia!
Atriox is just the brute anti-arbiter. Sent on suicide missions, always returning, his faith eventually dwindles and he splinters of to create his own faction. The main difference being the banished are villains and the swords of sanghelios are allies.
You got me good with that ad placement. Bravo.
I hope they dont just kill the created off screen and replace them with the banished that would kinda feel like an insult to both factions
I wonder if we'll get to fight the Silent Shadow, that would be interesting.
Thank you dude, I haven't played halo wars 1 and 2 at all so it's good to see this video
Chills from the Intro. Always. Amazing vid btw
Here’s how I think the Banished arrived in Reach: Anders was on the ring that was found close to Reach. Even though Anders threw most of the banished forces on the ring, there was still enough troops to establish a base and build vehicles and weapons. So after they gained enough troops they took hold of the ring and somehow found there way to Reach. Idk that’s just my theory.
It feels like its becoming similar to Dawn of War with the design style and factions.
Precursors VS a decent sized Flood outbreak would be a great video
That series looks amazing I saw that trailer a couple weeks ago. And I just have to say you’re awesome man I love Halo and have read tons of the books but I love your videos. They’re great to just hone my knowledge.
We watched as 3 of the most skilled warriors ever produced by Humanity were absolutely destroyed by Atriox, I can't wait to see how the Chief fairs against Atriox and the Banished.
Chief could never take him head on, he'd only be able to take him out using the element of surprise.
Wait, who were the 3?
@@herbertng2489 Spartans Douglas, Jerome, and Alice.
@@herbertng2489 Jerome is a 2
“An Elite group of elites.”
I think the Banished were 343’s best addition to the Halo franchise honestly. I just love their Roman meets Mad Max look, their history, mercenary society, weapons, vehicles etc. the Banished are so cool. I just hope they have a good reason for being an antagonist in Halo infinite, I think 343 needs to flesh out the Banished motivation more so it isn’t just “we want power”.
Thank you so much for this! Super helpful and great content as usual
"Atriox and his band of merry men." Alright. I hear you. Just not the same words I'd use.
With how accepting the Banished are of members, I'm shocked that there haven't been any humans who've joined them.
There is confirmed that humans where in the banished, but they were always off-screen
@@erikjan15585 technically

HiddenXperia in the clutch, I assumed you would be doing a Full on Banished video and im so happy you did!
The lekgolo Hunter design history is definitely worth it's own video. I also did comment on how to add replayability, by adding secret bosses and unlocking difficulties, for example, in order to unlock normal difficulty is to complete the campaign on easy, unlock heroic difficulty by completing the campaign on normal and so on.
I hope we can choose the faction we want to join. I really want to be with the Banished as an Elite instead of being a human.
So are the “Harbinger” the remains of the Keepers of the One Freedom? Because Castor knew Atriox personally.
I really hope Colony plays a role in Halo Infinite, they're so cool. Major Mass Effect 2 Harbringer vibes
Could you imagine having the Silent Shadow armor for playable elites? Oh a man can dream
Damn I wish
Right?
Xperia: "Outfitted with something said to be precursor" Me:"wait.... wut?" Xperia: *epically baits*
I think what I love about Atriox is that he is actually a compelling protagonist. You actually root for him in some capacity due to his origins from mistreatment at the hands of an enemy who viewed him as expendable. I have to imagine that if the situation was aligned properly, he might not be a "bad guy."
"In the end he was just a soldier, wondering if he did the right thing"
I appreciate your videos sooo much hidden
Great video and the banished seem like a cool factions.
I am unbelievably excited for infinite. I cannot wait to see chief vs atriox. This might be the best single player campaign of any halo game
*posted 10 seconds ago* hell yeah
Nice video and knowledge. Thank you ❤
I know so much about halo lore because of your videos keep up the great work
I wish we could get a Halo game with playable Brutes. Atriox is my favorite character in halo Lore
A big appeal of The Banished and why they've been received so positively by fans compared to the forgettable Storm Covenant of H4 & 5 is because they're, for the most part, actually sympathetic. Their ranks are filled with jaded mercenaries disillusioned by the Covenant and are sticking together not out of political benefit but out of solidarity from being part of a pointless war built on a lie
Great job with the video!
Great video! Keep up the good work and awesome content!
