Halo 4 went way off topic
Yeah this probably isn't the best place to talk about halo 4 since its no longer from bungie but since they started it i feel its appropriate.
Elites joined back with covenant and no more brutes i can live with. But now there are promethains and a promethain leader that has been locked up and that the mastercheif is the "chosen one" and gets special powers because he is the only one that can defeat him.
Cortana has gone crazy and is basically dead, not to mention there wasnt even a single trace of good old flood at any point ( which i feel really makes halo good).
And there is only one time they really bring up a halo ring even with the whole game being focused on the forerunners,
I just think 343 went a little to far off of the original topic and added a ton of emotion to the game.
Good game, bad story.

The game is filler, so that they can have three games.[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] switch 104 sv 343i are expanding the alot Universe, developing characters and generally making things more interesting. There is alot more to the Halo story than s the games and [u]Halo 4 is closely connected to both the Forerunner book series and the Kilo Five trilogy.[/u][/quote]What exactly happened in Halo 4 that was intricately interwoven with the books? Which of the age-old mysteries that we didn't already know about, did it reveal to us, other than the few questions it itself added?[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Atomic Tea What I DON'T understand is the Didact. Is he Bornstellar?? I thought Born was all chummy and friendly with Humans? Wasn't he traveling with Chakas and Riser? Why does the Librarian suddenly think him a monster? Really hoping Silentium will clear things up, or I'll have to read Cryptum and Prim more closely.[/quote]The Didact in Halo 4 wasn't the Bornstellar Didact, it was the original (Ur). The synopsis of Silentium tells us that Ur was left on a Flood infested planet by the Master Builder. In Halo 4, the Librerian tells us--in short--that the Composer messed with Ur's mind, and that he now has discarded all the morality he once had. Bornstellar is probably still a good guy if he isn't dead. [Edited on 11.09.2012 7:26 AM PST]
