Arbiter slander won't be tolerated
that's it oddheaders getting branded
This was probably the first time ive ever heard someone express the dissapointment of getting to play as an elite, how could u oddheader🤣
THIS
Literally almost disliked the video
Is this the “cancel Oddheader” moment? I love the man but I’ll stand behind the movement
Cannot believe the sheer Arbiter slander here, the worst take known to man. You will be removed from the blunt rotation.
yeah thats all well and good but have you ever seen the show homeboys from outer space
I'm glad this comment section has unified to defend arbiter. He's a real one
Oddheader is now in nightmare rotation
Oddheader definitely smokin crack with that take😂
@@arandomturd3775 yeah i thought the ending of halo wouldve kicked alot more ass if maybe master chief teamed up with the homeboys from outer space
I think the "It Takes Two" cut ending works in a way you might not expect. It works as a "final test" of "Do you really wish to stay together?" it also works to show a more visual aspect of what the child might feels during their arguments.
that game as a whole is ridiculous. I mean really, it's a game about divorce. That's so stupid.
@@sirrealism7300Let me guess, you're mad at the game because your parents got divorced? Did I get it right?
It also just fits better with how Hakim acts throughout the rest of the game. He comes across as useless and judgmental and often doesn't even seem to be trying to help. He feels like he's trying more to make them fight then telling them they're wrong for not wanting to stay together. I really did love this game, but I would have liked it infinitely more if I got to kick him down a flight of stairs.
@@CowWithTommyGunAltjeez no need for the aggression. I agree with the user about the game being a stupid direct metaphor for a divorce
@@sirrealism7300What would you rather you be the game about ? A military shooter ? A Sci Fi game where you're killing aliens ? A JRPG ?
Man, people always complain about all the reboots, remasters and sequels and when something new comes along that tries to do something different people still complain. Gamers are just crybabies who need something to whine about.
Fine. If you don't like the game don't play it. Problem solved.
The Arbiter is amazing what are you talking about?!
I'm so glad to see these comments. When he said that I was like, "Wait do people not like that part of the game? I thought it was fuckin awesome"
hell yeah!
I came here to say that and I'm not even a huge Halo fan (have only played 1 through 3). Big Arbiter fan btw. I do have the Master Chief Collection so maybe I should play it.
@@frizzlefrack253The original has that sweet ass Incubus track during the banshee bit!
Playing as him is my least favorite part of Halo 2. haha
‘The tonal whiplash would have ruined the game’
It Takes Two? Really? The one where you murder an innocent toy elephant?
True
Agreed. Knowing what little I know about the game, it probably would have been more on-brand
Yeah, seems to fit the tone of the game perfectly! It Takes Two doesn't even really seem like a children's game at all and I think it would've been better if they leaned into that fact.
Yeah, like.
"You mean the same game that looks like a fucked up mix of Rareware games, James and the Giant Peach, Toy Story, Alice in Wonderland, and somehow Super Mario Galaxy, talking about the complex topic of Divorce, in a game where it switches gameplay Genres on a dime? But you think that is Whiplash? Not how they did a complete ass pull on May's character for the last chapter? Mechanics and Engineering stuff WAS her hobby, not singing."
The ending just sorta happens. "Here is a Victory slide."
>Meanwhile, last Chapter you basically did a weird Yoko Taro boss. That at least had resolution.
"Just Hum really loud for the imaginary people."
Fucking, "Tonal Whiplash". lmao
That elephant wasn't innocent. You missed something in the game.
"Dr. Wily attacks the stadium and the only way to stop this act of terror is through beating him in soccer." I think thats how they do it in Argentina too.
as an argentinian person, i can confirm. soccer works as a form of duel for pride and justice most of the time. we usually also trash one specific MCdonald's afterwards, regardless of who wins the match
MegaMan fights Dr Willy: *Dies*
MegaMan celebrates his victory in a soccer game:
*Dies anyways*
7:58 "Thanks to The Real Hatsune Miku" that took me off guard.
Also, character with the legacy of Megaman dying after a soccer game is so ridiculously I kinda wish it was kept as an alternate ending
Megaman gets a BSOD after his victory and fucking dies
His quote is certainly "The Real Hatsumemiku."
The funniest, yet saddest part about Megaman Soccor was its part in the gag manga, "Rockman 4Koma Dai Koushin", that was made before game's release.
The artist was super pumped about the game. He made up a ton of cool ideas that he thought were going to be in the game... but weren't.
One of his younger fans wrote to him saying they had bought the game day one because of the manga made it look really cool.
The next panel is him apologizing for overhyping the game, even though he was never told what the game was actually like before it came out.
(That's why there is teams of giants bosses, small enemies, and evil Rolls, in the manga, but not the game)
As a life-long Megaman fan, thank you for sharing this!
Prayer With You: Heavenly Father, Your Son Jesus Chr1$t, born crucified resurrected For us ,Family ,Friends. Forgive Our Sins Give Us Eternal Life. In Jesus Chr1$t's name.Amen
There's a Battle and Chase manga too
Its nice that a comment about Mega Man trivia got so many likes. The series may be dead but the community interest and legacy status of the franchise is still alive.
2:52 he really just said the worst take and stated it as if we would agree
the arbiter is a beloved character
Didn't realize everyone was saying the same thing until after I commented. Love to see it.
Bbrrrahhhhahghhhhghh
That alternate ending to It Takes Two would have been worth it just to see the two kick the shit out of Hakim. My gf and I haven't finished the game but we both heavily disliked Hakim when we did play it, like bro this trial shit is NOT helping Cody and May.
Yeah for real, its like major gaslighting and abuse.
I've only played a little of it, but if Hakim doesn't turn out to be evil I'm gonna break the game cartridge
Look. Chief had a flashlight. The arbiter has cloaking. The arbiter was the fun character.
To quote the greatest game of this century:
"Nobody cares about your dead sister - I'm Alex YIIK!"
"WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?!" -Alex YIIK
"The elevator is moving, vibrating with motion"
To be completely honest, having played It Takes 2, this deleted ending fits MUCH better than what we're actually given. The whole game seems to build up that the book is not as much of a good guy as he seems, and in fact I'd say he often comes across more villainous or at least illogical and baselessly judgmental. The game itself also seems to take on darker and more serious tones as you progress, straying further from its more bubbly silly intro until the tone suddenly shifts back at the very end as a nonsensically happy fairy tale ending comes out of nowhere. It doesn't really feel like the end is climactic enough to be the end, nor does it feel like enough for the parents to have solved their problems at all. The whole ending just felt unrealistic and rushed, and it makes sense why now: because it wasn't supposed to be the ending. What a shame it was changed just because they were worried people couldn't handle a little dark gameplay.
Regardless, I completely disagree with the idea that the game's actual ending without this cut content fits better. This content makes Hakim's behavior throughout the entire game make SO much more sense because he just sounds like a nonsensical fraud who likes watching a dysfunctional couple suffer throughout the entire game. He's annoying, judgmental and often blatantly wrong in his assessments of their relationship, but somehow he still manages to help them and gets painted as the good guy which never made any sense to me. Plus it just doesn't feel like they should have learned much by the end of the game, but this addition of them confronting Hakim and potentially getting to see a lot more imagery of their daughter suffering would make the ending make a lot more sense. The entire ending of the game felt like a poorly written lie to me and now I understand why: the whole game was made with a completely different last level and climax in mind.
Yeah, his take is ass on this, this ending feels way more appropriate than the direction they went with in the final version. Plus the idea of having you two control one character for a very brief part in the end is gr at imo.
I agree fullheartedly. Part of me still wishes that Cody and May didn't get back together, but rather that they learned to more healthily split up and focus more on their child than themselves, but at the very least getting some closure on why Hakim was so annoying and manipulative would have been nice.
I feel like having two players control one character might be too hard but I would have loved to see that level in it.
Though I would have loved if the book guy was final boss. Like maybe book guy tries to get the couple to pay him for his "help" or was secretly making the couple do tasks for him so he can achieve a certain goal.
I never finished It Takes Two, but yeah my partner and I always got the vibe that the book guy was sort of an asshole.
literally same here with Hakim, tbf tho never played the game. But i have watched streams/playthroughs of it, and i never got the impression that he was a good person. I totally thought he was going to be revelead as some weird self-help book that is only preying on couples who are too scared to get actual couple's therapy
"The guy we had to play as when all we wanted to do was be the Chief" excuse me, speak for yourself
Absolutely horrible take about Arbiter. His story in halo 2 is the best written part of the whole series
Good thing opinions exist
@@elliottblair31Bad ones too
@@elliottblair31...and?
Scrolled down to say the same thing. Beat me to it.
Was about to say this lol
I bet he did that on purpose to drive engagement lmfao, I knew the comments would be on fire when I heard it
Had to, right?
I mean, don't we all have our unique opinions that would start riots?
I prefer Star Wars Episode 1 over the other 8. 😅
@@emiliovanilla6833 Other 5*, unless you include Rogue One, which I do. And I agree with this take, except that I liked Rogue One better than Episode 1
@Caffeinated-DaVinci Dawg I dislike the Disney sequels as well but they're still canon lmao, nothing is changing that
@@triplek-dysongamingwithdan7771No? Fanfiction isn't canon. It's not even fanfiction. It's hate fiction.
I do actually like the "secret ending" of It Takes Two more than just the normal version
Agreed such a shame it was cut
Not sure you know much about the original megaman games. One of the characters looking off into the distance and thinking someone died is pretty standard across the franchise.
That's the standard in Japanese animation too.
Regardless, it seems outrageously goofy in a soccer game. I'm surprised they had the wherewithal to cut it.
Other Mega Man games do it in ways that make more sense though & are more consistent with the intended tone, albeit not always the the tone they actually end up with since Mega Man games are terribly written.
@@D_YellowMadness I mean not really? it is the same standard. Got to Wily's base to stop them. Base gets destroyed. Someone thinks someone else is dead. Stare off at the distance or sunset or helmet on the ground. This happened like in half of the megaman games why not in this one too?
#3. It seems to imply that if you don't get the mirror on your way to this ending it'll trigger a fourth ending where she's killed by her brother?
Honestly I would've liked that ending for It Takes Two better than the one we got. If it was finished up and ironed out that would've been the most hype shit ever.
Arbiter is the best. He partnered up with John Halo for a common goal
They totally should have hung out more after Halo 3
the baal ending sounds on brand for baal
Yeah, the cult of Bhaal did some very sick things, and trying to turn your back on Bhaal after embracing him is obviously not gonna go well, but it was a good decision to cut that ending. A bit too sick I think, especially to end your experience in the game like that.
@@theredeft5319 a bit too sick? This is a game with multiple endings where you basically destroy the world. The cut ending is tame
@@randomcatname7792I mean, is that not bhaal's end goal? Use Durge to seed monsters (though I find it interesting that they go for gross-out with Gnolls and Beholders rather than the traditional dragons and fae) in order to end the world.
@@theredeft5319 very true
@@randomcatname7792I think it would be a a negative end for players. Killing the world is a choice. Deciding not to and having this happen is not. I mean I doubt many people would go this route on their first go(playing dark urge then evil playthrough only to try to go against Bhaal at the end), but it you never know it could be. Also I think we also have to figure in that the dark urge was clearly going to be the main story for the player character until Lairan decided to let Tav be a thing so people had more control of what they wanted their character to be so this could have once been one of the main endings.
That Balder's Gate cut ending is definitely just some dev's fetish
No idea how they got the narrator to agree to recording that one
"hey guys wouldn't it be funny if your dad made you fuck ghouls haha just kidding but maybe I'll program it just as a joke haha"
@@JargonMadjin she was paid
@@1ard103 Must have been a decent amount
I feel like a lot of scenes in the game are a dev's fetish, so wouldn't be surprised at all
Woah woah woah, arbiter’s story was easily the coolest part of h2.

"Make people comment on your video"
-Oddheader:
"I wonder what can I say so I can force them into commenting more...?"
I feel like hes talked about not liking playing as Arbiter instead of Chief in another list vid, but I could be wrong
"The arbiter, the guy we got stuck playing when we just wanted to play as chief. Didn't we get enough of him in halo 2?!"
Tell me you didn't play the halo series without telling me you didn't play the halo series.
9:42 Elden Ring won GOTY
Okay good, I wasnt the only one who noticed.
In 2022. In the following year Ragnarok won GOTY at the BAFTA Game Awards

I’ve always wanted to know why some random giant head was in the pit in the Aperture Hand Lab ending, but now I want to forget it
Did he just call out Arbiter and Dick Masterson in the same video?
God of War Ragnarok didn’t win game of the year, it was Elden Ring.
Do you know how many game of the years there are? A butt load. It won something.
It didn't, if it did than it was a very obscure one.
Weird mistake
(Also he said game awards).@@RanOutOfSpac
@@J.B_alpharius Do you know how many game awards there are? A butt load. It won something.
@@RanOutOfSpac you are replying with the same message so i am probably arguing with a wall, he said the game awards, TGA as in the game awards, THE game awards.
God of War 4 did win game of the year tho.
So that's prolly where the misconception comes in.
Arbiter slander isn't tolerated. Tbh I'm sick of playing the chief for every game, let alone a Spartan. I want ODST, Elite, Brute, Possibly forerunner stories to play.
Wasn't expecting a Dick Masterson reference from Oddheader.
Maddox lost
@@MattPieti well yeah but juju the cow lost as well
It's quite a surprise.

Absolutely horrid Arbiter take you should feel bad about that one. Voiced by the legend Keith David you don’t say stupid shit like that.
Shut up dude. It's his opinion. Plenty of people didn't like that style
the cut balder's gate ending reminds me of the Invincible arc where the general guy mates with an alien species a bunch to create an army of his own children
man's bad mouthing halo's best character :(
Y2K?! I've never thought it was pronounced like that. I always called it YIIK. Yick, like Yuck.
no its YEEK
Why ik
It's pronounced like YEEK and the main character is Alex YEEK and he is making me shriek as we speak. Kiss Rory.
I'M YEEKING OUT!!
It was supposed to be a roman numeral which sounds like a good idea but on paper its def bad lol
The parents in It Takes Two weren’t shrunken into dolls. Their bodies are still asleep in the house. It’s like their souls were transferred or something.
Does the script seem off to anyone? The Game awards mistake at around 9:44, the blatant false "the parents are shrunk" in the it takes two part, and the arbiter slander? It doesn't seem well researched.
You'd be surprised how badly researched the script is almost every time a japanese game comes up. This time it just happened with western games too.
Also saying that Sinmara becoming Ragnarök would make more sense (which completely goes against the game's main theme of fate being undetermined)
Oddheader’s been weak lately tbh. Not just minute details. I’ve been surprise no one else has mentioned it from what I’ve seen, but then again, I can’t pinpoint exactly what about his videos lately I don’t like and I think it might just be me more than anything.
Yeah last few videos have felt a little bit rushed tbh, but that happens
@@TheJayson8899 A friend and I used to watch almost all of the vids together and we've both noted how... I don't know, sloppy the content has gotten?
It's so funny how this appeared even in the last video - some dialogue was in Turkish, and mr. Odd just went "since this is in Turkish, I can't translate it :)"
Dude, just get translators? The entire discord servers feeds him ideas for videos, I'm sure there's at least 1-2 Turkish people with like half an hour to spare.
More funny with the fact the comments straight up translated it for him regardless.
Another time the friend and I riffed on a video because we just googled something regarding an UNEXPLAINED CHARACTER from one of his videos.
ruclips.net/video/ph_hxjctQOQ/видео.html
We literally googled "crash bandicoot skylanders untextured guy", and found a thread giving more detail than he did in 20 seconds
www.reddit.com/r/crashbandicoot/comments/8yzxac/unused_crash_bandicoot_model_from_skylanders/
These two are just off the top of my head but the quality has for sure gone down - and it's sad, because he's still posting some really interesting stuff.
I can confirm Dick Masterson is in YIIK and he makes Alex get on the scale or he smashes a mother's milk Funko pop
Lol, dude come on. Elden Ring won GOTY at the Game Awards over GOWR, & rightfully so I might add! 👍
Never stop uploading man
every time there is an “Odd Head” it gets more bass boosted. cant wait for 5 more after this so i cant hear.
I think Oddheader is the only RUclipsr that I immediately drop whatever I am doing to watch a new upload.
I'm subscribed to 200 people exactly and Oddheader is the only one I do that for.
Same
"there's a legitimate way of achieving this ending" SPAM X OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN TO DOUBT.
I expect a video apology for that arbiter take.
NAHHHH OddHeader has never been THIS out of touch. The Arbiter take is ridiculous and reveals you never had to be player 2 nor did you grow up with Machinima Content. Arbiter is the GOAT
seeing yiik in an oddheader video is Wild
In sonic adventure directors cut the gamecube version you can play local co-op even when its never mentioned you can wish youd cover this :)
That's common knowledge. You can also do this in Sonic 2, Sonic 3&K, and Shadow.

I'm so sick of generic ass comments.
That "guy we had too play as" is an ICON. I'd be more than happy too play as the Arbiter again. I would love playing co-op in halo 3 because it let you play as him!
As a bonus ending that wasn't cut, Far Cry 4 has an exceptional one. At the start of the game the antagonist tells you to sit and wait while he goes to "deal with a problem," and it's the game's queue for you to get up and start exploring. But if you sit for 10 FULL MINUTES he comes back, thanks you for waiting and helps you do what you came to do. Then the game ends. It's great.
God of War didn't win game of the year in 2022, that went to Elden Ring my dude
So excited to watch these videos as soon as they come out!
I can’t believe you would slander the Arbiter like that
Why the hate on arbiter
This is unrelated but howcome it's 2024 and YT still has that glitch where it says there's more comments on a video than there actually is
It's not a glitch. Comments get checked for "no-no stuff" before getting published and then either get removed or only appear when sorting by new.
@@GrzybeK3009 And then there's the ocassion when you post something but only you can see it and only when in your own account.
you can see more of the comments if you sort by "new". default sort is "top" which only has a fraction of all comments
Also when I post a comment or reply and then it just vanishes so I can't re-read, edit, or delete it.
GOW Ragnarok didn't win game of the year at the game awards. It was Elden Ring. Might be confused with the original GOW.
It's always a good day when we get a new Oddheader video
The megaman endings seem more like a game over scene
Bold of you to attempt to dunk on a beloved character such as Arbiter Thel 'Vadam.
Also misguided.

arbiter slander detected, jail for you
I can tell you why they cut the Halo Infinite ending, because they didn’t want to commit to a full cliffhanger because that would have meant they would have to work on another full or side game, instead of making Halo onto a live service game.
Dark Urge looking around like "who the fuck is talking right now" is hilarious
ODDHEADER POST??? MY DAY IS SAVED!!!!!!!!
Barely knew what YIIK was, now wanna know even less after what that reveal was lmao
Don't worry, Oddheader just didn't do any research and simply copied what everyone else was saying
@@grrrr255as someone who has seen the entire game, no. the games just really fucking weird.
Isn't that the game where the shithead protagonist can accidentally drive one of his friends to suicide but the narrative basically brushes it off?
Can’t wait until I’m older to see all the Easter eggs to the games that I’m playing currently
Its always a good day when Oddheader posts a new video! 💖
PSI OPS Mindgate Conspiracy messed up with that cliffhanger when shortly before they had nice ending...
was that the one where you could surf on doors with the telekensis power?
Actually, that game was supposed to have a sequel, but it never went into production because the game sadly flopped. Which sucks too because I've always liked the game.
Always a good day when oddheader drops
I'll have you know Mr Header, that Arbiter slander will NOT be tolerated.
Love the channel oddheader keep it up 💯
A fun little note for some of y'all digging into these unused endings...
In the Halo Infinite one, you can hear something over the pilots headphones... Morse code. If anyone's feelin' eager, they could try to decode it, see what comes of it?
Arbiter is the GOAT, his bromance with Chief is the best part of Halo 3
