So the Taken are equivalent to the flood? (From Halo)
So Oryx captures enemies from different races and forces them to fight for him. Sounds like he's the Gravemind and the taken are flood combat forms.
So the question I guess I would ask after that thought would be: Does this formula for a new enemy feel satisfying? or would you like to fight a whole new race?
I think this works given time and budget and limitations (if there are any from last gen consoles) but I hope new games in this franchise introduce some new races to go up against. :)
