The flood returning would be great, as there can be more than one Gravemind, the original could return and some new blood to.

  • Well, Bungie's Gravemind is dead, no doubt. As I said, though, there's no reason they couldn't have the same voice. I mean, they're theoretically clones, both in terms of vocal chord structure (overthinking this somewhat) and just all being part of the same parasitic hive mind. I suspect 343 will want a clean break, though. There was a proto-Gravemind in CEA, in Keyes's terminal. I wonder who voiced that.... It seems to be so obscure, not even Google can find out. :/

  • He may be dead but could return and other primordial's are alive and other Gravemind are possible. 343i might change the voice, Lord of admirals might know who voiced the terminal. I am sure they got the same bloke back to redo the cutscene in Halo 2 Anniversary cinematic's, they did with the main characters for the other cut scenes as far as I am aware.

  • [quote]He may be dead but could return[/quote] wat I know they're space zombies and all, but they don't work that way. They can reanimate dead matter, but presumably not themselves. I mean sure, they did it in CE, the combat forms, but in 3 (can't remember about 2), that became an infection form just disappearing into the body.

  • Being able to come back from the dead is a defining trait of the precursors, which the flood explicitly are. The primordial let himself die and brought himself back as a gravemind. The gravemind in halo 2-3 had memories that he could not have lived. It's what makes them so scary. Have you read Silentium?

  • I have, but I'm not great at remembering the details. What memories?

  • In human weakness he tells cortana that the flood have consumed AI before, including "one who succumbed willingly". The only AI who succumbed willingly to the flood was Medicant Bias, the forerunner AI. Technically the gravemind shouldn't be aware of that but he is.
