I grew up playing halo, one of the best storylines and design ever. You really have to appreciate how good it was for it’s time and what it did for the community pvp
Something this video gets partially wrong is the reason the Human-Insurrection war began, which started in the late 25th century several decades before the Human-Covenant War. The Insurrectionists rebelled because their people in the outer colonies weren't just forgotten, but most of their worlds were farm worlds that were being overtaxed by the UEG and inner colony corporations. I also don't like how in this video, the narrator uses the Covenant names for alien species, which I know, but those might be very confusing for new Halo fans such as yourself, so here they are: San'Shyuum are the Prophets Sangheili are the Elites Lekgolo are the Hunters Jiralhanae are the Brutes (yes, they do look like yetis) Kig-Yar are the Jackals Yanme'e are the Drones and finally, Unggoy are the Grunts.
Halo has to be experienced. Play the games and read the books in chronological order. The commercials also set the stage for the games. Its all gives you a feeling of becoming the master chief and wraps you in the story in a way the shows makers never understood.
@@antsonseadoos1287 I recently bought it actually! Just the controller configuration is the issue for playing. I prefer controller over mouse and keyboard if given the option.
@@WarriorHumble24 You can use a corded controller on PC that's what I do. And start with Halo Combat Evolved if possible, the gameplay difficulty is very well paced, introducing new mechanics as the levels continue. You could probably beat it on heroic difficulty no sweat even if you're not that great with controllers.
The halo TV show might be better as just pure entertainment to someone from outside the community, but if you know the lore and are into it, the show is a disgrace. The lore isn't just inaccurate in the show, but it's not even similar at all. Granted, it takes place in a different timeline, so no one was expecting 100% authenticity, but it has literally nothing in common with halo. It's like the writers wanted to make their own sci-fi show but couldn't get it greenlit without having it piggyback off an already established IP. If you stripped away all the props and replaced them with just generic space guns and armor, no one would know it's supposed to be Halo.
It got him interested in the wider lore and games so it’s not that bad. At least the show takes place in another halo universe and not the one in the games. They could’ve done some real damage to established lore.
One of my favorite things about the Halo universe is that the Master Chief, as well as the Spartans, aren't the central factor of this world, they are just soldiers, just like all the rest. The games themselves follow the Master Chief, but I always interpreted it as it being a story of humanity and it's fight for survival.
It originally started as bungie lore. Got retconned lightly by 343. Ultimately Humans are still related to forerunners, just not as direct decendents. Instead the Forerunners were our distant cousins who gave us the mantel as their final act. Dont act like 343 lore is complete and absolute garbage, its good lore. Not perfect, but not trash at least.
I'll look into gears of war! Transformers war for Cybertron I played and seen cutscenes already but still I might look into it again since it's been a whie
I said his name because in the video when the humans started the space industry and sending crafts and people into space so as a joke, I said Elon Musk will be the one starting it in real life because of SpaceX. That's why.

Right off the bat, as of today, the Human-Covenant war has been dubbed officially the Covenant and its client races, the "War of Anihlation."
Bro you're gonna love Halo. The music, the atmosphere, everything. Hope you enjoy and just nerd tf out when you start playing the games
Loving it! I've been reacting to the cutscenes, but I might make a change about that soon!
@@WarriorHumble24 Halo MCC is very good on PC and has every good Halo game

The elites are my favorite species in halo. Lizard space samurai are dope

Yeah I mentioned it in a Halo review video I made. It will be on the channel about 1-2 days based on my thoughts.
@@WarriorHumble24
If you haven't seen it yet, watch "Halo: Forward Unto Dawn"
That’s so messed up you biggest introduction to halo was the show, possibly the worst piece of halo media

master chief in the series doesn't even have the same values as the one in the games/books

Your destruction, is the will of Gods and we are their instruments.

You should definitely react to the halo TV show season two and post it on RUclips
That is plan actually, but when it comes to movies and tv shows, the copyright issue is a headache, but I will try though
20:12 NOT BUNGEE LORE SO IGNORE

Watch more brotha!
Got it and saw Halo 4 and it's coming up soon
I would like to recommend gears of war game or transformers war for cybertron game

(Hrm. another too bad, unfortunately much).
The TV shows is really bad. They really messed up master chief
