Feeling pity for tartarus
Am I the only one who feels a little sorry for Tartarus in a way?
He's basically a confused character who is so intrenched into the prophets beliefs he would rather die than have to accept them as false, I saw brotherhood however small it may be between him and arbiter, even if it was only created by membership to the covenant and it's ideals... It seem to me when presented with the truth by oracle he was having an internal conflict...
I don't feel really bad for killing him as arbiter but I still feel pity for the character, his pride and investment in the covenant caused the soab to "let the great journey begin" Aka knowingly kill everything...
I'm kinda disappointed they didn't bring him back as a flood boss in halo 3,
Imagine the grave mind speaking through a flood version of Tartarus...

Agreed. Remember, Arby did say he wanted to make a better Covenant, not to end the Covenant: "There was honor in our Covenant once... and there shall be again!" Yep, the rushed ending was disappointing due to the lack of empathy, not necessarily because it was a cliff hangar. The decision to relegate Arbiter to a partner was a horrible one.

Why would he visit Installation 05's control room? It'd be better to fight Gravemind directly or be pursued by the Gravemind's tentacles (like on the deleted level Forerunner Tank). Or maybe after the cutscene, the game introduces a new Flood variant: Brutes and Elites that look like themselves but are covered in Flood growth. [Edited on 09.18.2012 10:35 AM PDT]
