Spartan Ops Ep. 4
I have to say I'm really enjoying having a weekly dose of new Halo stuff, particularly the cutscenes. Things to note:
- Halsey considers [i]some[/i] of the IVs to be more Spartan-ish than others. Obviously she thinks Gabriel Thorne has potential.
-Thorne doesn't seem to hate Halsey blindly and is more interested in finding out the facts and listening to her.
-An unknown person/entity is contacting Halsey.
-Roland is a pain in the ass and Palmer doesn't like his involvement with her ops.
-Jul 'Mdama believes the Librarian is alive in a Cryptum. Or perhaps he mistook her durance/AI as her actual being?
-The Didact's gift is supposed to "retrieve the Prometheans soul". Does this mean that the Didact wants Jul to use this to bring the Librarian back to life? Turn her into a monitor? Or attempt to make her organic again? (that went well last time they tried)
Thoughts on this week's installment?

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] StealthSlasher2 Also, the one thing that still continues to disappoint me is the lack of Engineers thus far into the series or at the very least mention of them. Assuming they weren't all transferred prior to the redeployment, one would think they would be the go-to authority on how Forerunner devices work prior to Halsey's arrival and later on after her arrival would be present to work in conjunction with her to a limited degree.[/quote] I think between [i]The Thursday War[/i] and 'now,' the Engineers have left us just as they left the Sangheili. As constantly reiterated in the K5 trilogy, they've been waiting for the return of the Forerunners - as Reclaimers, we just seem to be the substitute, as if we'd make do until that happened. Now it has. I think they've gone to wherever the Huragok who left the Sangheili went, and that's why we haven't seen any.
