- Halo 2 introduced us to the Brutes for the first time, and with them came Tartarus - the Chieftain of the Brutes. In Halo 2 he was notably sadistic and cunning, but in the expanded universe he's a billion times worse. So, today, we're going to dive deep into the brutal, disturbing history of Tartarus - Chieftain of the Brutes!

#Halo2PC #HaloLore #HaloMCCPC - Hry
The disturbing, sadistic lore behind the famous, caper based Chieftain of the Brutes - tartare sauce! Enjoy fellas!
Ok
I’ll get my tea and crumpets and sit back and relax
I'll get out my sea food then
Please do the history of Dadab! He and Lighter than Some were some of my favorite characters in Contact Harvest
I just finished Halo Contact Harvest on audible like 3 days ago
The elite's greatest weakness: *ladders*
I’m actually surprised they couldn’t climb ladders
I’m missing the daam joke
Elite legs bend backward not forward. Elites can use ladders but it is extremely difficult and tiring
Console Freaked they can’t use ladders
just throw one at them and they immediately disintegrate
Rip Deacon Dadab the only grunt who the balls to fight a brute one on one
F

Ok, the Brutes replacing the gravity lifts with ladders was funny as hell.
Lmao that's the epitome of petty 🤣
But at least it's not homicide
and it makes sm sense 😂
I think all think all those brutes in the level are kinda dumb
The minor level
I'm sorry but I'm currently dying of laughter imagining The Arbiter having a panic attack whenever he sees a ladder and Chief just sighing for the 15th time that day...
Oh God, can you imagine the Chief giving the Arbiter a piggyback ride everytime they ran into a ladder? Even better...
Chief: "This is Sierra 117, is there any Pelican's on standby for a tactical drop?"
Pelican pilot on standby: "What do you need Chief?"
Chief: "I...uhhh...need a harness on the double Marine."
Pilot: "Right away sir! Wait...did you say a harness?"
Chief: "Affirmative."
Pilot: Oh, I get it! You found some cool tech didn't ya? Why don't we just fly it out of there for you?"
Chief: "No! That won't be necessary. I just need an extra.."
Arbiter: "Chief, please don't tell anyone.."
Pilot: "Don't tell anybody what?"
Arbiter: "You heard that?!"
Chief: "I need an extra large baby harness."
Pilot: "What?! You mean like a snuggly?"
Chief: "Yes pilot, a super sized snuggly on the double."
Pilot: "Okay, can you give us a proper dimension for this super sized snuggly?"
Chief: "Roughly 8'7."
Arbiter: "8'7"
Pilot: "That's one big baby!"
Arbiter: "Nevermind, I found a Brute jetpack."
Pilot: "Wait...."
Arbiter: "If you know what's good for you, you will end transmission or I will crush your..."
Chief: "Settle down and stay on task Arbiter."
@@Sinn0100 I’m high rn and reading this in all of their voices and having a mental image of it might be one of the funner things I did so far
@@iamMildlyUpsetWithMostOfYouTub
That's what I did when I was writing it. It's really funny when you picture their voices.
Lighter Than Some actually made the 1st Chopper to mimic and improve the human farming equipment in an attempt to make peace
So Choppers are spicy farming equipment
Damn we should also make a tractor with m16s fitted on each side
Darth Vader imagine a scorpion or warthog with those plow blades.
Darth Vader gun mounted combine harvesters. Why does that sound like something that already exists?
Alexander I was just about to say that!
...but then the Brutes found it 😞
One small detail you forgot to mention, Lighter than Some did NOT build the brute Chopper so Tartarous could have more fun killing Humans, Engineers are peaceful and kind creatures, Lighter than Some actully intended the Chopper to be a peace offering to Humanity, an advanced plow for their farmers. Tarterous saw the invention and said, "Oh, it will be a plow, it will plow straight into little Human legs!! ATTACH GUNS TO IT!!"
Reading this I just picture a farmer hugging an Engineer but then Tartarus starts beating the shit out of the farmer while the Doom theme plays
Tarterous is as dumb as other brutes are...
@@miyu7394 I love the image in my mind
That explains the driving on it I guess.
@@novavortex7763 I dont think brutes are really all that stupid tbh. I think their ability to access their potential was harmed by the covenant being their y’know patrons and the fact that they are so aggressive and warlike both naturally and culturally. Legitimately if they had structure conducive to them and actual education they likely would be a force to be reckoned with. Sort of like the banished, but to be fair the banished are highly atypical and Atriox is a super genius by brute standards. At the same time though, the banished are evidence that when left to their own devices with good structure, they invent a lot of stuff. The brutes are remarkably good at ripping shit apart to figure out how it works and making a jury rigged or “brute” force copy of said things. Even Tartarus as dumb as he might be was an effective leader for the brutes to a certain degree and he clearly was able to understand not just that his uncle was fucking up and responsible for their issues, but why he was responsible. If they were closer to ape intelligence, they would only understand that they’re in a bad situation and look for someone to blame and try to kill them in the most brutal way. Tartarus didn’t kill his uncle just cause he was angry his buddy died and the ship went down, he was pissed cause his uncle was obviously incompetent due to his zealousness. That coming from Tartarus whos super fucking zealous. I think thats good evidence of them possessing semi-decent intelligence. Especially considering veteran brutes would and will actually use good tactics in fights if at times a bit primitive. If you gave medieval humans advanced technology and the act the way they do, because of how they were raised, the culture of the time/place, and the shock of all this new shit, they would act very similarly to brutes. Humans are far more viscous and brutal that most people would like to think.
Interesting, Tartarus and Johnson were together at the start and the almost-end of the Human-Covenant War. I wonder if they recognized to each other in Halo 2.
They did
Might be why he took Johnson seriously when he threatened him with a beam rifle
"Just climb up this ladder"
"Were it so easy..."
Who would win:
A zealous elite warrior, sword of the prophets, master of tactic and fencing
or
A ladder?
Ladder
@gman57op anti-mason you haven't seen a horse trying to climb a steep hill then, to climb straight up your legs have to push straight up off the ground to create enough force to lift, with horse like legs elites can't do that because if they push off the ground the force will go behind them not upwards, though elites definitively can climb a ladder but it would be entirely with upper body strength and Elites are not primate based creatures like Brutes and humans so they're not built with heavy arm strength hence why it would tire him out gruesomely especially trying to lift himself in heavy metal armor
Sword of the prophets in Jesus Christ mighty name.
I heard they're nerfing ladders in the next patch so I'll reserve my judgements until then.
Ladder wins everytime
So lemme get this straight. This entire war started all because a Grunt named Yull attacked a soldier unprovoked?
Let's all hold this little bastard in contempt.
Lmao
It was probably inevitable given that the prophets were corrupt and would have declared extermination on humans anyway, and also the Covenant present in harvest were determined to seek artifacts regardless of how the meeting went.
@@daveyjoneslocker4703 Yeah the war really started when the prophets realized that humanity were the reclaimers. That's when they decided we needed to be exterminated. Before that we very likely could've joined the Covenant and taken a place close to the elites.
@@maxhydekyle2425 what's funny is if they exterminated us their 'oracles' would have hated them
@@maxhydekyle2425 oh how a simple mistranslation could cause such a long a blood war
that elite skull is like... clean, too. so i can only imagine that tartarus went through the tedium of cleaning out the flesh and gore from his prize and making it look pristine and presentable, having to defy his brutish nature, specifically to the end of being more offensive to the Sangheili. thats a hell of a lot of dedication.
Just use a hose. I don’t think it’s that serious , just wash it
Or her just let it fall off over time and just let it weather and clean itself over time
@@jefferycollins4844 i mean i would argue the timeline of halo 2 not allowing that but then again when you begin arbiter's delta halo missions in the cutscene they're already talking abut how chief has killed regret, which means chief would have already been pulled under the water by that point and then somehow the arbiter can do the entire two missions to get the index, be betrayed and fall into the gravemind room, and then STILL somehow only make it there a few seconds after chief arrives?
i mean fuck it then i guess literally anything goes at this point
@@lapotato9140 I think it just took a very long time for the Gravemind to get Chief all the way to wherever tf he was at.
Gonna be honest I never realized that was an elite skull. Always thought it was a dead Flood infection form or whatever those ugly little buggers are. (Not the... you know, actual bugs.)
F for my boy Deacon, the only grunt to maul a drone and had the balls to take on a brute chieftain giving him a good old plasma shot in the back. thats some pretty baller shit there
Decon got is revenge, he saved Sgt.Johnson who later helped Thel kill Tartarus. Happy endings.
That took some balls from a little Grunt.
I think Grunts used to have a lot more fearless warriors back in the day but the cowardly ones were more useful to the covenant and pretty rare, so they were wiped out.
@@matizluv1316 I think all the grunts had the potential to become fearless, but it took a lot of motivation to do so, such as threatening their species, homeworld, or friend.
@@joebomb1019 We keep forgetting that Grunts are actually badasses and the main component of the Covenant Army, do you know how many grunts actively and willingly do suicide runs to kill what they consider a demon?
I've also come to the realization grunts are the closest thing to humans the covenant has.
Some of the parts of the halo extended universe have grunts trying to sabotage the covenant in order for them to not kill their friend, or stuff like that
I think the most disturbing thing about this whole story is that when a grunt got scared, it immediately started ripping someone apart, it didn’t cower in fear, it didn’t run away, Yull just went for the nuclear option and ripped someone’s guts out.
the grunts on that ship as well as many other in the early years of the war were very dumb and animalistic and basically lacked the self preservation instincts the more modern ones have for the most part
@@pyrecorsomething2216
Cause they were children, most* grunts now are veterans
Actually, the most disturbing thing is that Tartarus is completely to blame for the human-covenant war
@@benciudovchgottdank3460 yup but The covenant still would of done it later
@@benciudovchgottdank3460 A grunt is. You could also go back farther and just point to the prophets.
Imagine starting a war against the humans because you wanted how they tasted.
Looking at you Yull
They were going to be at war anyway because the Prophets wanted to erase any evidence that humanity were the true heralds of the Forerunners
@@_MaZTeR_ Yeah but that's the real reason and the real reason wasn't shown to most of the covenant. As far as most knew, that grunt started to war.
F for Deacon.
A grunt who dared to shoot a brute. A true legend.
Can we just appreciate how a Grunt probably saved the UNSC and entire galaxy?
That grunt is truly the hero of all of Halo history
Also how a Grunt started the whole war early. I bet if peace talks continued the prophet's would have gather information on Human worlds and then wipe them in one fail swope rsther than a dragged out war. To think 1 grunt screw up lead to the downfall of the covenant
Francis Harkins they deserve it for trusting a grunt with anything of responsibility. I mean one of them literally had a hand in the death of the highest ranking Elite there ever was, all because he was bore
@@francisharkins I mean I don't think oni would be too keen on giving up power either so it would be that cut and clear but definitely wouldn't help
Omg he really is he saved pretty much the whole galaxy in saving Johnson
The class: *is about to leave

Well that turned out great for them didn't it. Ironic
You’re referring to the elites right?
being gay is not normal You seem to hate the prophets with a passion. Which is funny considering they are video game characters

Hey Thanks for the reply ! Can I have one question ? Have you ever heard the the story of Zo Resken ? He is the Prophet of Clarity from Halo Broken Cricle.
Tamás Pákey Yeah CZcamsrs usually don't respond after making one comment :( Well maybe he will cover it
@@jswid2251 There's always hope
@Hide Your Children
"The Icon, is my only concern."
As brutal as Tartarus is, many of his actions on Harvest were understandable and relatable. His anger was completely understandable considering how many of his comrades had been killed due his uncle’s incompetence.
Expectations: Grabs contact harvest to read about the Harvest Battle
Reality: Grabs contact harvest to see Seargent Johnsons "johnson"
A sergeant with a private.
One stands at attention while the other is laying down
Tarterous is an interesting character, despite living a life of Brutality, he always did what he did with the internal reaosning that, "It's fun and it makes me strong!" when he saw the Prophet of Truth leave his comrade for a painfully long death, it was the first time he ever questioned his way of life. He thought Pack brothers were supposed to help each other "....eh, the Prophet of Mercy must have been weak. The Prophets are always right, and might makes right...right?"
Denial until the end, the dude was dedicated at least
@@HiddenXperia Atriox was just standing off to the side laughing at him. "HA! You got all of the Covenant-aligned Brutes killed over a race war? Man thats stupid! Now come my Banished, let's tear the Ark apart trying to keep it off Humanities hands!"
HiddenXperia very dedicated.
@@HiddenXperia Insanely devoted would be a better fit. I loved blowing him up with a Banshee on The Great Journey. Yes, you can do that, but it's a bit difficult. The rewards, however, make it "A small price to pay for salvation."
The name is literally in the title of the video you clicked on, yet you still managed to spell it wrong
I never realized that Tartarsauce had an elite skull on his shoulder
Ahh yes, the chieftain, *"Tartarsauce"*
Sir, can I have the ugggghhhhh tartersauce?
LMFAO I’ve always thought about tartarsauce
This makes me see the grunts in a different light, as well as make the engineers my favorite covenant species lol
Doisac. Doisac. Dooiiiiisac. Planet of the Brutes everybody. They could’ve named it anything but they named it Doisac. Doisac! -Dimkee Hotay the grunt
Tartar sauce (French: sauce tartare; also spelled Tartare sauce in the UK, New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, and other parts of the Commonwealth) is a condiment primarily composed of mayonnaise and finely chopped capers. Tartar sauce can also be enhanced with the addition of gherkins, other varieties of pickles, and lemon juice as well as herbs such as dill and parsley.
It is most often used as a condiment with seafood dishes such as clam strips, fried oysters, fish and chips, fish sandwiches, and fish fingers, among many other dishes.
@Mr.Tweezy007 me too
Tartar's Special Sauce ;)
Pronounced tar-tear in Australia, and it’s not bad.
They fight about fish and chips, it’s almost traditional, like lemon
I'm just disappointed that Tartar Ass hasn't caught on
We have tartar sauce here too in the states I love it with fish and chips
Accidentally?? That’s such a disservice to DaDab. It’s literally in the books of Johnson saying The grunt had him dead to rights.
poor dadab what fucking hero
@@ianh2950 Dadab was a fucking lad
I wish some grunts became allies, would be fun to have them narrating on your side from what ive seen from infinite
I kinda like how a grunt started the first shot to this, but another grunt and his engineer friend were the first ones to try and stop the bloodshed on Harvest.
So you're telling me the entire Human-Covenant war started because some grunt had an anxiety attack and decided to start scratching at a random dude?
That marine called him the grunt version of the N word.
Well the brutes made it clear they wanted the entire planet, so tough to tell how when or how else it would have started. My guess is they would have started to turn some cities inside out looking for Forerunner artifacts, only to get shot at by the UNSC while learning their device is no longer useful. After that, my guess is nothing would change with the Hierarc's decisions.
@Alexander Robins Or It could have easily just gone like this.
Your proposal is unacceptable, this planet is our home and we cannot, we will not give it up. However you say that you seek to excavate and recover lost alien (forerunner was it?) artifacts of significance to your religion? If that is all then under the following conditions, we would be happy to let you do so, and even be willing to lend assistance where we can. And this would not just here on Harvest, but on any UNSC controlled planet where such artifacts may yet be found. The conditions being
Condition 1: You, that is to say this group calling itself the Covenant, make a non aggression pact with us.
Condition 2: You, the Covenant, enter into trade negotiations with us.
Condition 3: You share and/or exchange technology with us. Including all new technological knowledge gained from any artifacts recovered on a human owned world.
Are these conditions acceptable?
Tartarus thinks
Condition 1: A smart move for a technologically and physically inferior race. It is no skin off of my back if they don't want to fight us and/or want us attacking them.
Condition 2: I don't see why not, at the very least we can buy raw materials and other resources from them, and in their ignorance we can most likely get bargain prices. (aka for beads)
Condition 3: Again I don't see why not give them a technological boost and educate them about the forerunners maybe even get some human converts that wish to join the covenant. And why not share with them knowledge of the glorious wonders of the forerunner's legacy, after all we get the artifacts they just want to know what we learn from them.
These conditions seem acceptable I will relay your counter proposal to the Prophets and upon their approval we shall make it so.
@@jlk461 get a life.
Covenant: hires engineers.
Drones: THEY TOOK OUR JOBS!
The Covenant didn’t really “hire” the Huragok. They basically forced the Engineers to work for them. That’s why they wear the explosive harnesses in the game.
@@Fieds_Blade dey still terk rr jerbsssss

DEY TOOK OUR JEBS!
2:11
Wish there was more insight into this whole brute civil war sounds insane.
3:33 I just can’t stop laughing at this
I would like the grunts to be human allies... or at least a fraction of them... going into battle yelling: “for the demon!!!!!”
I could imagine a bunch of chief fanboys charging into battle xD
If I'm not mistaken, I believe MOST of the grunts actually sided with the Elites during the schism, but because those still under the Brutes were still a very common enemy, they figured they'd nip the confusiom in the bud and just not show more than elites on our side of the schism.
@@Recoil1808 Bungie was gonna do that in Halo 3 but Bungie thought it would “confuse” us while playing
@@primusvsunicron1 well that's stupid. I mean in halo 2 they figured out how we could fight elites and grunts while fighting alongside elites and grunts no problem.
Just a decent visual change to their gear and armor was enough.
A grunt using a sniper or a tactical shotgun
I always get a bit sad at the end of Halo 2.
After guilty sparks explanation, he looks like hes seriously considering what he said for a moment.
Almost like giving up is on his mind momentarily. Before ultimately refusing to give in, and throwing our beloved lightbulb at the late, great, Johnson.
I wonder if he'd even still believe in the great journey if he'd survived.
Jebus Indeed, he I suppose he questioned if it was worth it to surrender after all he had done up to that moment, questioning if it was worthy to betray the covenant and side with the heretics after the truth he had been exposed too.
It's worth mentioning, Lighter Than Some made the chopper out of a Spirit dropship to serve as farming equipment, the bladed wheels for plowing fields, and as a peace offering to the humans of the agricultural world.
All Grunt storys end with "And then, he died too'" LOL XD
Brutes are not dumb,they are just unable to control their emotions i mean they were genius enough to make nuclear and radio tech and also they were the first to start an anti covenant faction (Banished).There is more to them than meets the eye and i hope they return in halo 6
Also fun fact: According to Halo Fleet Battles, Brute pilots develop an attachment to their fighter craft to the point of naming them and brute squadrons form a tightknit brothership between them much like our own human pilots here on earth
@@ArtificialDragon okay that moved me ngl
There will be halo infinite, not halo 6
They’re pretty much confirmed
So we can all enjoy BURNING THEIR MONGREL HIDES!
Engineers: **exists**
Drones: *Hippitty hoppitty you took my jobitty*

@@bloodydove5718 "HUH DERK AH DUUUUUUUUR!"
INFINITE SPOILERS AHEAD
F to pay respects for Doisac. Made me genuinely pissed at Cortana on Atriox’s behalf…
i find it absolutely insane that the covenant entrusted Tartarus with the initial nagotiations with a new race XD
1:06 “the ruthless and masochistic history of Tartarus”
*oh so he was kinky?*
He killed his uncle, so yeah.
ok maybe I shouldn't have said he was masochistic that's not exactly true LOL
Brutes invented hardcore
@@badgerman2229 Ironically, the Brutes are actually a kinda kinky race, their societal status is based on their physical strength, and their sexual success. So their societal hierarchy is basically the same as the Furry hierarchy. Not that I would know about such a thing, or anything. Just speculation.
JakeSpacePirate E oh my god
Hidden can we get a what if Video based on if Tartarus had listened to The Arbiter about the Prophet's lies?
Tartarus likely would've started his own faction exclusively with brutes and set out to get revenge by stopping and killing truth, leaving the prophet of truth practically fucked. So while the brutes are now either choosing a side (Tartarus or truth) the covenant would have to fight not only the unsc, but also Tartarus' newly formed army. With all this extra suppression against the covenant, truth would've likely failed miserably at attempting to open the portal to the ark and an even more drastic downfall to the covenant faction would occur. After the covenants defeat Tartarus would probably try to destroy earth or retreat after the elites since these are his enemies and without a goal, I don't see why he wouldn't want to attack and dominant one if not both of these factions. This is my theory at least
its sad that the grunts couldve actually been friendly, the grunts are actually kind of cool TBH
We need more grunt lore. Theyre honestly the saddest race. No in like a heartbreak way but in a "I'm so sorry you're pathetic" way..
There actually both if you know the grunts back story
@@bearsarecool900 yeah :/ I know poor little fart breathers
I was literally JUST thinking to myself "Man i wanna watch some hidden xperia" thank you, this is dare i say, iconic?
You're gay
A game covering the first contact would be awesome to see.
Or movie
@Fire Team Apollo Holy Shit, Halo but you play as SGT Johnson, a 'Regular" person/marine. Halo Without an Energy Shield and the stakes are a lot higher. Marine VS Brute, You can't just run into the middle of a squad like master chief and start punching everything to death. A Sgt Johnson game would be cool
i loved contact harvest, how they explored johnson's character, and also the fact that all the marines were just militia recruits prepared to fight the insurrection. But Dabdab's part of the story was very sad f for lighter than some and Deacon. Let's not forget Yapyap who also rebelled against his leader Zuka Zamamee.
Don’t know if it’s been said already, but big ups re enacting the fight between tartar sauce and his uncle. That was awesome 👏
The grunts are the "red shirts" of the covenant
Star Trek reference
Elite: Noo! You can't just lay waste to entire lances of troops!
Tartarus: Ha ha, hammer go boom.
Imagine destroying a Covenant ship while dying? And he lights a Williams Cigar while doing so? Proper badass. An F for Deacon and Ponder. RIP
I honestly can’t understand people who say Atriox would beat Tartarus in a fight? The guy has the most powerful gravity hammer ever with a shield that needs multiple beam rifle blasts to take down. It also took an Arbiter, humans and dozens of elites with zealots and councillors to take him down which he was previously one shotting!
I would love to see some more love for Tartarus in the games! Maybe have Atriox discuss him or something
So underrated tbh
"I am not Tartarus or some fanatic. I am not Truth. I am not Regret. I am their remedy."
- Atriox to a group of would-be assassins
Same, and I'd be surprised if Atriox didn't know who he was. For all we know Tartarus could've been one of the commanders sending his Brutes on suicide missions at the behest of the Prophets
Elite trying to get to different level on brute ship: TARTARUUUUSSSSSS
Good stuff, now I know ladders are Elites only weakness
Doesnt anyone else find it ironic that a grunt is responsible for saving Sergeant Johnson's life?
Brave Ungoy are the most badass things ive ever seen.
Who said grunts can’t be deadly by themselves you a boss Yull and Dadab, never forget.
Learning of these stories with grunts in them makes it hard to kill helpless grunts. Because one of them spared my boy Johnson.
Arbiter steps into a room: “ah, my old foe”
[scene pans 180 to show a ladder]
As a Jewish person, the name "Maccabeus" never fails to make me do a double-take because that's the surname of a famed Jewish revolt leader who led a rebellion against the Seleucid Empire in roughly 160~ BC. He died in a battle where he was so hopelessly outnumbered that most of his troops fled and begged him to do the same, but Judas Maccabeus insisted on standing his ground with those most loyal to him, and he died fighting it out like a warrior. After his sacrifice, he became a martyr that inspired other Jewish people to revolt against the Seleucids, and they finally won their right to freely practice their religion.
Dunno how that translates to the Brute character, but thought I'd mention it.
1:12 Hidden Xeperia: mr mohawk is not one to be trifled with
Arbiter: I'm about to end this man's whole career
Atriox: haha I beat covenant
All I learned from this was that Johnson was saved by a grunt

"It even has a Seargent Johnson sex scene!"
Best marketing ever.
So the leading factor of the human covenant war wasn't because the Elites or Brutes decided to attack humanity causing a full on war. It's because a grunt got nervous.
Haha funny title I laughed
Also I dunno if you can call him a man
Also thanks hidden
@Mr Grav haha "brutal" haha
Bruh it’s hardly a pun because the word brutal is the adjective version of the word brute, it’s not like it was a mind fuck
@@Alotofnades exactly my point it was ironic
I wonder is Maccabeus would have responded differently to being told that the prophets were liars and that the rings would kill them all.
Great vid. Kinda sad you never touched on the elite skull armor even though you said you would in the beginning:(
These videos make me want to replay the original trilogy but I’m waiting for the series x
I could swear I already commented on this. But oh, well.
In Greek mythology, Tartarus is the deepest, darkest part of the Underworld where the worst monsters were kept and even the gods themselves feared to go.
I hope Halo Infinite will allow us to have a boss fight against Artriox, like we did against Tartarus for halo 2.
Imagine Chief and Arby uniting to take him down.
As soon as you mentioned "Lighter Than Some" I was like, "Oh this is gonna be sad."
Can't help thinking that the story of Harvest would make a great stand alone game. Somewhere between Reach and Halo 3 ODST in feel. Maybe playing as a marine in Johnson's squad.
Imagine if the UNSC actually managed to make an alliance with the Covenant. Just imagine.
Halo rings will fire and everyone dies the end.
@@Burning-Twilight yeah lol
We'd pretty much be thier slaves jist like the grunts and the engineers
@@Burning-Twilight yah good point
Why cant we ever get a story where a grunt comes up on top in the end.
I mean Zuka Zamamee (the Elite that hunted Master Chief throughout one of the games (don't remember which one)) granted Yayap the Grunt the highest position a grunt as ever achieved, one part higher than the jackals
@@leoninenoble believe its halo 1
Theres always Stolt.
@@leoninenoble Haha Yayap baybee. Halo: The Flood (Halo: CE). I shed a manly tear at the end of that book.. when he rode off on the ghost into the desert. then everything exploded.. fucking badass book
@@aeronautisch I should read it 😂 I only knew about this story because of hidden xperia's video on it.
I love how a grunt basically started the Human-Covenant war
Iv never played halo in my life (ps3-5 guy) but I just love these videos😂
Question. Were humanity aware or in contact with other sentient aliens prior to the war of the covenant?
good question
No, The covenant were first contact.
That's disappointing. Although I imagine if humanity did have contact/trade/alliances with such species, we'd see something more akin to Mass effect.
Technically the Halo Universe is the future of ours, and since we do not have "proof of alien contact", neither would they. But we know the truth.....
Well, technically they did. Back in ancient days humanity was at war with the forerunners(aliens) but most of them(and everything else) was wiped out by the Halo rings and got reset. So, yes they had prior contact with aliens, they just don't teach it.
Speaking of Brute Chieftains, I was always interested in the one from the original Halo Wars. Thrall Slayer, we never really learn anything about him though he is one of the playable characters.
IIRC, Thrallslayer was sent off Shield World 4059? by Ripa to escort Regret to High Charity and to deny the Brute any glory.
F. Rest in peace Deacon. You were the bravest of the unggoy. Possibly the best
Humans and grunts would have been besties. They are very sociable and have a pack mentality,like dogs.
