This franchise deserves more love than it gets. Halo is second only to Star Wars, there are arguments to be made comparing Halo and Warhammer however I personally prefer Halo.

[@halocraft314]

Eh, that's debatable. I think Halo is better, mostly because Halo is steeped in science more than Star Wars. I still love both though, and my fanfic combines both, with the MCU happening in the past.

[@gavinlane7038]

@@halocraft314 valid points the only reason I play Star Wars at first place is because of the overwhelming amount of lore that it has and sentimental value. I will, however, say that halo is absolutely the greatest video game series on earth in my opinion.

[@deathsinger1192]

same, I love Star Wars and Halo too

[@DarkraiNewmoon]

I've always wanted to make one of these videos. May give me the push to make my own. Great job with the video!!!

[@thepolishtech1552]

As always an absolute pleasure to watch/listen to, can’t say i am not hyped for the future podcast episode. But before that, get well soon Mark

[@ne9d133]

This podcast was great and I would love to see more. For a background maybe you could steal one of the Halo Reach menu themes e.g. the Covenant glassing Reach.

[@Paladino0692]

Utilizing the playlist functionality in MCC is great to play through ODST as a linear experience. There's one to play through all of the main squad levels, then there's another for the the Rookie missions. So when I do chronological replays of all the games, I do just the first few missions of Halo 2, then those two ODST playlists, then the rest of Halo 2. Breaking up Halo 2 like that helps make the slipspace travel from Earth to Delta Halo not feel instantaneous.

[@deathsinger1192]

I have now played all the mainline games and have read fall of reach to first strike, pretty fantastic so far, probably gonna read contact harvest before ghosts of onyx now because of your recommendation

[@novadelsol8127]

No love for Sgt Lopez and the Mona Lisa?
Great video, I really should read some more of the books.

[@Lazypackmule]

From a pure information retention and comprehension angle, I would absolutely not recommend playing 4 before reading at least Cryptum if not the whole forerunner trilogy, people still to this day misunderstand what happened in that game because of that.
Now, Reach before CE is another matter- being a prequel showing past events is so much a part of that game's identity that it is literally presented as a post-war ONI report compiling footage from the invasion

[@xxmattopsxx3931]

Skip Bad Blood and New Blood. That's my suggestion for reading the halo books.

[@DreadKnight-wg8bd]

You should make a video on the thermopolaye class supercarrier

[@gono4806]

First

[@SpartanJoe193]

Games first

[@anthemanatheme1638]

Alternatively, you can always just dismiss anything written by Karen Traviss. Also known as Travissty.

[@joshuapurdy7065]

Cringe take

[@Jaydee-wd7wr]

You’re gonna need better bait than that if you want to catch anything.
