Did the Flood cure ever exist? Was it ever used? Is there a modern Halo universe equivalent? Today, we answer all of that and more...
Lets go got here quick
Same
Nice video, but I still think my favourite flavor is oxygen.
No cure I think the flood pulled back cause it knew if Humanity AND the forerunners worked together they'd lose but as for a cure I would imagine yes but it would mean humanity would evovle and become stronger and more advanced than the feral flood precursors flood, but I do not think the FLOOD itself is the test. the flood are more what happens when the precursors were wiped out and corrupted by anger
Fine, I'll sub for the flood lore. Wish 343 gave a single shit about it.
*Body gets mutilated, transformed, controlled and broken apart*
Forerunners: Yeah that's fixable
Nothing a bit of hardlight can't fix
Have some faith goddamnit!
Ancient humanity used Vicks and chanted "sana sana colita de rana" cure, and the Forerunners were baffled by this.
WD-40
FIRE THE HALO RINGS!!!
Thanks for supporting the Halo community through all its ups and downs bro, keep doing what you're doing.
For real. Halo been dark since 2013 and the only ones keeping it alive are the content creators, lord knows 343 is doing nothing. Halo died at the end of H3 and that’s my head canon
What ups?
Halo wars 2 was good though
WHAT HE SAID☝️
Appreciate that king
Probably the Flood's greatest example of their strategic acumen. There was never a cure, but feinting towars there being one preserves humanity, provides a sense of complacency with the Forerunners, regrouping their forces in unknown space and could be revealed later by the Primordial to weaken morale. All in 1 move
500IQ play tbh
@@HiddenXperia
Takes the phrase "galaxy brain move" to a whole new level, a literal one 😂
I also like to think it might have been the flood who made a cure should it exist... So like the biblical flood it consumes everything then purges itself and makes an "Eden" possibly just to use as a honeytrap.
@@HiddenXperia Love the Video, but is it Not uncertain that Humanity was supposed to inheret the Mantel, But since "Infinite" the Salanin? Was this not to spite the Salanin to Tell the Humans they are the reclaimers of the Mantel?
Dang, that's pretty clever. Sheesh.
Give the Gravemind a snickers bar. He's normally pretty chill when he's not hungry.
Lol
Gravemind: *I do need to eat more greens.*
Guy named Snickers:
Weird powder lands on your planets .”lets feed it to our dogs “ I think ancient human weren’t that bright
Well he dumbed it down a lot. It was fed to their "pets" because it seemed to prevent disease (made healthier, improve mood (made calmer), lengthened life (longevity).... Can you think of any pet owner who wouldn't want their pet to be healthier, happier, and live longer? Only everyone!
Was the first big brain move by the Flood... It gets their DNA out there, into an easily replicable creature, easily mutated and multiplied.
@@RikoLime And one you _really_ don't want to put down. Delays long enough for it to be too late.
You think humans today are any smarter? All it takes is one influencer to be like. WOW my dog loves this powder stuff. BOOM flood infection
Or more like: "'Wuzzat?' 'IDK, feed it to the dog.'" is in our DNA.
@@leandersearle5094I don't know man, every pet owner I've ever met will yell "WHAT ARE YOU EATING?" if they see their pet got a hold of something.
I want someone to do a video about what the universe would look like if the Didact had succeeded in convincing the ecumene to go with his Shield World plan rather than going with the Halo Array
All the shield worlds that have been discovered yet have been overrun by the flood so there you have your answer
@@anmolpatel793 I dunno man. Imagine a Shield World project where the Builders, Warrior Servants, and Lifeworkers came together to build the shield worlds. All the resources that went towards creating the Halo's would've gone to the shield worlds. The Didact wouldn't have been corrupted by the logic plague.
I think it's a "What if?" Scenario worth thinking about lol
@@anmolpatel793 what about requiem? genesis too
@@anmolpatel793I legitimately do not know the answer to this but wouldn't they be overrun by the flood because theres no one there to defend them?
"Trove" shield world 459 had a flood free interior as the sentinels did not overextend themselves.
I'd call that a success.
The flood actually wanting humans to succeed is a truly haunting thought
I don't get it
@@l0sts0ul89it's because humans are being farmed like cattle to the flood.
@@l0sts0ul89 it's a galactic scale level of tough parenting. multiple near extinctions, a full reset on our history, a daunting test yet to come, and the willingness to fuck with us in specific moments just to play the long game of getting us ready to take on the mantle.
@@SamsarasArt ah, yeah that's bad
@@blackmage665 Humans number 1!!! 🌎🌎🌎🌎🌎
The "cure" requires that we throw Master Chief into the beam of a Halo. It'll make the energy green, and the Flood will stop being jerks.
Them being mean and bullying me was my biggest issue with the flood tbh
The real question is whether Ashley or the Kaidon survives.
...
I'll show my self out.
"... stop being jerks."
To put it mildly.
Nice mass effect reference
@@MatthewJamesKalasky "Understatements" are the best statements.
I'm a simple man. I get a HiddenXperia upload notification about the Flood, I immediately drop everything to watch.
He's telling the truth, I am his newborn kid, who has been on the floor for 4 hours.
What about Sergeant Johnson?
He was, effectively, immune to Flood infection as a result of the Orion Spartan modifications to his body.
Theoretically, that iteration of the augmentations WAS the cure/vaccine for Flood infection due to how messed up his neutral pathways were, IIRC.
He's not immune, just harder to infect.
Johnson's kind of a red herring in that regard, he's not immune and he's not even resistant, it's just that the ORION project altered his genetic make up so much that the Flood simpler to infect hosts instead of him, kinda like how in World War Z the infected choose not to infect people with terminal illnesses because it's more beneficial for them to infect a healthy host
I thought his DNA was scrambled when a nearby case of plasma grenades detonated, the radiation basically frying him
@@mousecyr01 that's a cover-up story made by ONI.
@@mousecyr01he can still be used for biomass like everything else. There’s just better hosts present at the time.
You would think that after infecting the first human in an experiment would make the forunners go "huh, I guess they're not immune.."
I don’t think I have ever looked at your subscriber count 😂 I could’ve sworn you were already at a million. Been watching you for a few years now. Thanks for the epic content. Halo was my entire childhood.
Haha thanks man. The last 2 years since Infinite launch stagnated all of our growth like crazy but the last few months we seem to be finally breaking out of that stagnation and back into growth which is great to see
@@HiddenXperiai think with the infinite...."let down" people have been staying away from halo.
BUT I am more than certain with Helldivers 2 being basically ODST. And other Halo things happening around the web.(Marty O'Donnell trying his hand at politics) The fans are slowing opening back up to Halo content.
Maybe with the death of Rooster Teeth. A different company will take up the Red vs Blue IP and try again. I'm always down for more Halo anything.
100%, id play Halo at least once a day every single day since halo ce, then came Halo 4 and I was slightly annoyed at the massive inconsistencies, but i slogged through it... then we got 5 and I almost gave up entirely... then we got infinite and ive quit it. @@bombomos
me to i thought he had10 mil
The forerunners use of composers to rip the very essence or 'soul' from every single human kind of shows that the forerunners where kind of akin to sadistic children, playing with toys much more advanced than they themselves where. (As it was precursor technology above their understanding)
If there is a cure, my guess is that only the Precursors themselves have it. And they aren't willing to share it. Unless the final test for the Mantle of Responsibility is that cure. Humanity passes the test and the Flood never return. That could be interesting. Unless the Didact just unearthed something by curing his Logic Plague. New theory video ideas are always welcome.
Another great Flood video Xperia. Always love watching your Flood related videos.
My head cannon is since the precursors are basically 4-dimensional beings and live on a higher realm, you’ll need a “4 dimensional” cure as well. You can’t cure a disease from a reality that’s higher than your own. Which means, like you said, only the precursors could cure it.
Well the precursors ARE the flood... So I highly doubt any fire exists
The fact that flood infection kills its victims while simultaneously causing rapid decomposition makes me pretty sure a cure would be impossible
That's why cure would probably be some kind of vaccine aka immunity.
Sometimes. Sometimes the flood keeps the host alive. Aka Keyes and Jenkins
wouldn't be a cure but more of a vaccine that would make you immune to the floods super virus
a true cure would be a form resurrection
As much as I appreciate the deep lore, I often miss the mystery of the flood and the Forerunners that Bungie had set up.
Johnson… something inside that spartan 1 augmentation changed something
This man and installation 00 are my only hope to keep Halo's Story alive
Humans faced The Flood by sacrificing some of them and their planets for the sake of the rest, understanding how unavoidable of a fate it was.
Forerunners faced The Flood by sacrificing the whole galaxy before letting themselves die.
The Precursors' choice to give humans The Mantle made so much sense.
The Flood completely steamrolled the forerunners, while The Flood pulled some punches while on earth.
The flood hates the Forerunners because of there selfishness and ego
Still doesnt make sense why the forerunners wouldnt save their species which is why the "forerunners are aliens" retcon makes no sense.
@@bruhgod123 ego + hubris = destruction
@@unrulybot1352 That still doesnt explain why the Forerunners didnt save their species.
It is genuinely criminal that we never got The Palace of Pain in Halo Infinite
We probably were going to via campaign DLC but poor management ruined everything.
Halo Infinite feels like 80% of the game was cut off and they just made it open world to waste our time in giving us a false sense of the map being big when it's only just one biome.
@@KaptifLaDistillerie We probably would have gotten campaign dlc based on each level of CE.
I want Halo to make a comeback so bad I just hope the next release hits that mark. Thank you for not abandoning the community. This franchise has meant alot to me over the years hate to see the state its in.
I remember laughing when i saw that the Flood origin story began when some dumbasses decided to rub unknown space dust on their dogs. Like....of all things. And why would you put some unknown dust found on a space ship on your pets. Just the dumbest ways to create the most horrifying creature un all the galaxy's history.
All of this is pretty dumb. Halo lore is kind of wack
You think too highly of people/Forerunners
Europeans ground up egyptian mummies and used the powder as medicine well into the 18th century so it isn't like modern humans are any better when it comes to having questionable applications for ancient corpse-dust...
The Flood is an organism, I've seen some people ask why there can't be a cure, but to best break it down in simple terms: You can't *cure* a Zebra that's been eaten by a Lion, the same way you can't *cure* someone whose been consumed by the Flood. Key word there: consumed. Even though the Flood doesn't digest its food like a normal organism, it uses it completely just the same. Instead of taking your nutrients and discarding the rest as waste, it uses *everything* and repurposes your biomass as anything it wants.
If your arm was to somehow get 'infected' by the Flood but not you, there is no 'your arm' left, it's Flood biomass.
you know.. far as intentional outbreaks go.. from the more recent Halo Infinite side story about Saturn, we do have a flood infested ship roaming somewhere in space. will we see it again in the form of the true test starting, will it just be a passing mention?
It's likely never coming up again because it's unlikely to have actually escaped. No gravemind means combat forms can't drive vehicles and since that story was before infinite there would have been a flood outbreak before infinite's story started.
@@AxisChurchDevotee no gravemind just means they are feral, they don't need to don't the ship to drift for a few years, decades even then crash on some backwater world.
@@MrGalzraVoid It wouldn't be able to use the ship at all due to the complexity of it. Combat forms can't do anything strategic or complex without a keymind.
@@AxisChurchDevotee i just stated they don't need to actually use the ship. It's the flood, they can stay in a dormant feral state for decades. They can just float through space until someone finds them or they crash into something.
@@MrGalzraVoid No I mean the ship is unlikely to have even taken off. Combat form can't do anything complex like that. Without a keymind they are just in "Attack and infect anything" mode.
I love watching your videos on the flood, truly fascinating finally learning more about them.
I hope the Ancient Humans stay super mysterious. With the Precursors gettin quite a bit of exposition lately, not knowing something about the pre purification galaxy is valuable.
You're one heck of a story teller, effortlessly keeping it interesting and gripping.

This is was an unexpected but incredibly informing video. Scary to think what the Flood represent!
Glassing and Fire
The flood wouldn't care
@@thedead073This is fine 🔥🔥🔥
@@thedead073 I know but it's like it will hold them off for a little while the glass half of Africa and the flood hasn't got out yet
I'd love to see a future Halo game bring back the Flood but make them a more ferocious and intelligent enemy as the "final test" for the Mantle. Giving them more unique forms and more diverse AI so that they are more fun to fight would go a long way, in addition to the traditional combat forms. Also seeing Keyminds would be sick.
Also, super hot take, but I think bringing the Prometheans back as a machine more future-esque Terminator type species would be sick if done right! The problem fighting those guys is it just wasn't fun with all their teleporting and stuff. If they were reworked to have parts of their metallic framework breaking off during combat, it would really make fighting them more visceral and give more visual feedback to the player! It wouldn't delve into gore either if 343 wanted to keep that T rating, and could still give us that rawness and physicsy fun that's been lacking from Halo games since the Bungie days.
Just imagine the Prometheans becoming allies with the monitors of a few installations, and fighting side by side with Sentinels in scenes reminiscent of Future War in the Terminator movies. And also Promethean styled vehicles. Fighting as the Arbiter to unify the fractured post-Covenant species still tangled by war. Discovering the true mystery of Zeta Halo: that all these years later The Primordial had hid away his consciousness before dying with the Endless. And that The Endless's goal was to return from deep space with him to finally enact their plan to conquer the galaxy and prove to the Primordial that they, not humanity, were worthy of the mantle. All while the Primordial's true goal was to enact the final test for humanity: to unleash the flood on a scale never seen, and bring hidden Key minds from deep space to the Milky Way. This version of the parasite would be far superior to what had been fought before. And even factions of humanity begin to question whether or not they should light the Halo array as a last resort to killing the Flood.
Ayyy let’s go another video!!
You and mint are my favorites. Great video.
Fingers crossed to hit 600k and beyond. You have been making videos that make me and many others - pun intended - hungry for more.
Damn bro was looking through the how long ive been subbed for website and ive been watching you for 6 years. Heres to another 6 mate
next video idea were there any marine survivors on delta halo
besides the ones with johnson and if any were on the in amber clad when it was infected
Really love these videos learnt so much from playing the games and these videos
man it really feels like they lost their focus on this overhead story this past decade
I’ve never played any of these games, but I find these videos super interesting. It’s like listening to lore from a story I’ve never read.
Hi, I've been watching 👀 a lot of ur videos. (Flood included), I like ur videos a lot, bro. Keep it up.
1:19 i like how you used Derelict from CE
love your vids - always enlightening to me as someone who never played the games, but wanted to know the lore. One note, and this may be due our different regional accents, but when you say forerunner, I hear "foreigner" instead of "4 Runner" and it throws me every time. lol.
I love when an advertisement ends and then a sponsorship ad begins
Wait it not only takes over the body but imbeds itself into the soul of a being. Dude that's beyond terrifying your alone with this other being inside your mind and one with your soul
Worse that if your family also consumed by the parasite it uses them against you. Torturing you forever, the halo were a great weapon against the flood.
I would love to see you cover the X Parasites from Metroid
Ork levels of imagination is obviously the cure, though I wouldn’t call it disturbing
Outstanding video
I have a theory, which may be opposed by other lore pieces, but I'd like to share it. What if the ancient Humans were deemed worthy of the Mantle by The Flood, which is why they were left alone? I know it's an outlandish theory, but please hear me out.
We know that The Precursors deemed humanity worthy, but maybe there were some who, after becoming The Flood, wanted to see how humanity would fare in an open conflict to prove themselves worthy of holding the Mantle. Perhaps during the War, humanity did something that proved their worthiness, and that's why The Flood chose to leave them alone and slowly withdraw. But when the Forerunners went on a genocidal campaign against humanity, that was the final straw for The Flood. The Precursors grew tired of the Forerunner Empire's arrogance and their lust for absolute power, so they unleashed pure horror, the likes of which the Forerunners had never seen before. We can always chalk up what The Primordial stated as a way to mess with them since why would it reveal its true plans? The Precursors existed for an untold amount of time and likely came from another plain of existence, so why would they reveal their true plan? I don't know, but I thought it could be an interesting theory that some may like.
Edit: I started writing this before i finished the Video since i didn't want to loose my train of thought so it's bit similar to what's said later on but this was written before hand.
You got my sub!
Just discovered you. I like the videos. subscribed.
So short answer: physical transformation can be prevented via Composing, Logic Plague however can be through... however the Didact did it.
Possible to be effectively immune from infection
I feel like we also forgot about how Sgt. Johnson had an immunity to the flood when it tried to infect him (or has that now been retconned?)
His genetic code was difficult for the particularly old infection form to decode. Johnson was able to kill it before it made any meaningful infection progress
It wasn't that he had a full immunity from the flood it was more that any infection form that tried to infect him would just have an unreasonably bitch of a time doing it because as we all know the flood take control of you through your nervous system and it is extremely important for them to get the central nervous system however the Spartan one augmentations that Sergeant Johnson had royally fucked his nervous system to the point where it was near impossible not impossible but near impossible for a flood infection form to effectively infect him to the point where it would take too much time fiddling around on top of him while Sargent Johnson's still in control (and would obviously be killing the infection form) as well as an extremely weak connection to the host anyway because of the damaged nervous system that it was just not worth it in the floods eyes
i agree, the floods actions during the outbreaks in halo 1 and 2 always seemed odd to me. during the initial outbreak they acted based on instinct, but once a gravemind formed they almost seemed to only combat the convent aggressively but seemed to only combat humanity in a defensive setting
Wow man your videos are so cool
I did it…..I subscribed. I finally subscribed! Your content is awesome. I’m so lost in halo lore right now I love it!!!!
I love some good ole Flood Lore
What about in the books with sgt Johnson , he was immune to the flood because he was exposed to a crate of plasma gernades and and was diagnosed with a disease that was treatable but he rises to get it treated?
Oh and a new idea. So you make a planet that has floating cities and the atmosphere is just a glassing beam that got stretched across the "planet" aka The glassing beam bubble.
A topic I would love to see you discuss, would be...
Is Time Travel or any form of Time Manipulation possible within the Halo Universe and lore?
I don't know enough of all of the entire Halo series Lore, to know if there is technology or anything possible to travel through, or manipulate time in any fashion
Could Master Chief go back in time, and change any events from any Halo?
I bring this up, to also discuss the Flood Cure
Could John ultimately go back in time, to when the Precursor were turning themselves into dust, and get them to stop. Informing them of what will happen
Thus, changing the entire timeline to the Flood never even existing
And because the Precursors have power beyond time and space, maybe they would be aware of what happened in this alternate past (their future) timeline, and then know Humans deserve the mantel, because they passed the test, by stopping the flood through time travel
10:22
I’ve been playing since Halo CE and only just now realised that the little tentacles sticking out of combat forms belong to the infection form that infected the host. I thought they were just tentacles that grew, but no, it’s the infection form…
… That creeps me out even more for some reason.
Man I love Flood videos
Its soapy salt water yeah i wasn't expecting it either
Interesting that I never got a CZcams notification for this, despite the fact that I’m subscribed with notifications on. I wouldn’t have seen this if it wasn’t for the discord notification. Is this a problem anyone else is having?
There's a very high likelihood that you've been subscribed long enough that the algorithm has stopped showing you the videos and/or notifying you. It's happened on a few other channels that I follow.
@@TravlerBlue I’ve been subscribed for longer than I can remember, so that makes sense. Come to think of it, I think Xperia might’ve been the first person I subscribed to when I made this account.
A hidden gem. IRIS. That was something else.
I would like a horror game involving the flood. Instead of playing as a Spartan or an ODST, you play as a regular ordinary person. Being so vulnerable would take what's already a horrific threat and makes it even more threatening. Maybe have it be one of ONI's several failed experiments on the flood.
Great ad, chum is Fum.
Had a thought. What if ancient humanity was spared because they HAD passed the precursors' test, but because of the actions of the forerunners, they didn't get the chance to receive the mantle?
So you’re telling me the origin of the flood is more like “The Thing” than I already thought possible lol
Good job
from what I understand, the cure has to do something with neural physics, with the UrDidact being cured by a composer, which uses a cruder form of them to digitize a consciousness, so if there is one, it has to use them in some way
I love more theories!
I’m ngl, i use to not really like this channel, but i have been really loving your videos. Happy to sub 💕
You know that you can make a compliment sans leading with a dig or negativity? It added nothing of value.
Hey HiddenXperia, i am looking for that video that you showed in the intro but i can't find it, do you know the name of that video or terminal?
Literally never played any of these games but fascinated by the story.
I'd love to try FUM but they are prohibitively expensive. Like £80 for a piece of wood with some cotton filters soaked in essential oils is insane.
Also, as ever great content dude
"Palace of Pain? Never heard of it. There is no existing lore for Installation 07" Actual dialogue from Halo Infinite Developer.
Listening to you talking about the Flood is so very much enjoyable for me, thank you for continued videos into this sort of thing. (As well Halo in general, a shame that the lore is so rich yet the games are stale, though Infinite is recovering quite well all considered.
My headcanon about the Flood is that when the Ancient Humans talked with the last Precursor, he told them that Humanity and all life in the galaxy's only purpose was to feed the Precursors with their precious life experiences. All the hope, dread, hate, love, anger and peace that each being feels is nothing more than a hearty meal for the Precursors to devour. And the Precursors create scenarios to feed on particular emotions and experiences, resetting the galaxy to begin anew for when they tire of the current one. And the current scenario that the Precursors were craving was the dread, hopelessness, and insanity inducing fear that the Flood create. I don't blame those Ancient Humans for committing mass self deletion upon hearing this truth, for what more could you hope to live for if your life's experiences was engineered to be nothing more than food for such eldritch beings?
"what more could you hope to live for if your life's experiences was engineered to be nothing more than food for such eldritch beings?"
"Killing them for doing it, then being free of them." is the answer to that. To be fair, not everyone would take that response, and it's clear none of the researchers had the fighting spirit to take that response.
I think the precursor’s final test might involve one of the strongest in humanity’s ranks being devoured and learned from to better challenge humanity, like a spartan infected by the flood and managing to escape to use its spartan knowledge to better accumulate power.
Greg Bear’s Forerunner Saga was an incredibly interesting and insightful. Just imagine being an ancient human scientist, conversing with a being that’s possibly your creator and he reveals the powdery substance in your food and makeup is actually a parasitic, galaxy killing creature and it’s in your system. I bet that’s what made some of them to go insane.
If there ever was or will be a cure, I'd imagine it wouldn't be able to reverse/restore the host infected due to the sheer damage done to their bodies (liquified organs, broken limbs, tendrils sticking out of everything, etc.). If anything, all the cure would do is simply kill off the flood super cells in the body as well as severing the connection the flood has with the hosts body, which even then would just leave behind a rotting corpse.
the cure could just mean inoculation, not whole reversal of a flood form.
Hows this man not at more than a million subs hes one of the best halo youtubers
In your opinion who would win: The Imperium of Man or the Covenant before the Banished formed?
“The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn’t exist”
I recently re-read the Forerunner trilogy and I’m convinced that the Flood convincing them that there was a cure was their greatest trick.
Another great video man, I love these deep dives and theories taken from the books and presented like this, keep up the good work.
But the cure did exist and the devil doesn’t so
@@markricheard1870 the cure hasn’t been discovered yet. And the quote was about misdirection and being able to get people to believe what you are trying to get them to believe. Also I know the devil isn’t real, and the Flood aren’t either
Broooo I know the creators and owners of Fum! So cool you got sponsored by them!
That was entirely incidental by the way, I'm just a big Halo nerd and found your channel a month or so ago 😂
Definitely worth mentioning that when a human was infected they could infect a San’Shyum (prophet) but if a San’Shyum was infected first, it couldn’t infect a human. And when humanity fought both the forerunners and the flood, the forerunners didn’t even know about the flood for more of the early war, they just thought the humans were destroying forerunner planets and people for their own greed. And finally the flood was a Failed mutation for the last precursors, it was supposed to be a way of revenge yes, but it was supposed to also bring them back to their original forms.
But I absolutely agree that bungies flood wasn’t the test that the Primordial described, when the flood fought the forerunners, it stuck to the outside of forerunner space, it consumed everything it could without being noticed, and then slowly moved inward to the less noticeable forerunner colonies and planets.
When it comes time for humanity’s tests, it will be the same, like you mentioned in a previous video, a flood infected condor with a slipspace drive escaped after infecting some Spartans and a mining site. But the flood leaving the halos wasn’t an accident either. It was the preview, just like early humans and forerunners had. It was essentially their pretest.
I have a question. What if Arbiter and Johnson had managed to get through to Tartarus on Delta halo?
I wonder if the Flood from other galaxies would work with the Flood from the Milky Way or if they would attempt to take them over.
I don’t think there is another well “flood” unless another group of precursors turned themselves to dust and became flood. But I think the flood is the result of something happening to these dust form precursors.
Fume is also coming under some scrutiny. They're flavored with essential oils, and you're breathing those oils into your lungs. Essential oils aren't meant to be breathed in, and can lead to even more damage than vaping
Hi, enjoyed ur content for many years specially halo lore.
But have you ever thought like me at moment. did humanity already false the precursor test for the Mantle. As Ancient human where running away from the flood and begin war with Forrunners?? Will current humanity actually get another go?!?
Many thanks again for all your work 👍🏻👍🏻
Maybe if you could perfect compose process to move someone’s mind to a physical organic body to remove them from a combat form that may work but depends on if you can extract the host consciousness from the flood form.
I got a killtrosity because of you thank you
Though once you get infected wouldnt reversing it kill you if you didnt die during transformation that is. Cuz your body is all mangled and deformed so i dont think curing it can happen. But inmmunization i think would be possible
Just started this video, I’ve read primordial and am on silentium right now. I remember the primordial telling I think chakas (guilty spark) that humanity wasn’t immune they just chose not to infect some.
YEEEEAH I was right

Im 27 played Halo 3 Reach etc & absolutely love the Halo Tv series! Disapointed theyve changed cortana from season 1 to 2
Great video!
