    As always, a pleasure to see you experience these games for the first time. I think it's pretty interesting how invested you got into the characters here, even without knowing a lot of the contextual lore: Without spoiling anything, since IIRC you said you may read the novels at some point, a LOT of the interactions between Jorge, Emile, Halsey, etc makes more sense once you know more about the different SPARTAN programs and why and how they came to be. Halsey in particular actually originates from the very first Halo novel (The Fall of Reach) which established a lot of that information and covered the same conflict (albiet following different characters and the game retconned a few things). Actually, even as somebody who HAS read the novels, I personally think ODST executed on a lot of the same ideas (a squad, a darker atmosphere, etc) better, but that makes your different perspective all the more interesting. Will be fun to see how it changes once you do listen to the audio logs, know some more of the lore, and come back to the games in a few years, maybe!
    JC already covered how Noble Team's death's are ironic (Commander goes down with the ship, the brains gets shot in the head, close quarters specialist is stabbed, Jorge loves reach but died in orbit, the sneaky sniper is MIA rather then killed, the lone wolf dies alone), and the fact that the Glassing beams caused the glaciers to melt and the area around Sword Base to flood (honestly, I forgot about that myself!) but there's some other neat stuff to note: That squad of Zealots elites that ambushes you at the end of the first mission that Halsey mentions is actually the same Elite squad that killed Kat and then drops down and kills Emile and then you have to take out before getting into the Mass Driver at the end of the game. In fact, the Elite with the Fuel Rod Gun you assassinate at 7:49:25 ("The Field Marshall") is the very same elite at 1:23:49 and that shoots Kat. So the whole game there's a whole team of Elites hunting Noble Team down, which is pretty neat..
    A more environmental storytelling detail is that the 2 missions where you primarily encounter Brutes instead of Elites is during the missions where you're inside a occupied city, which I think gives some pretty clear grisly implications as for how Brutes were used by the Covenant before the Elites were replaced by them: Wheras the Elites are used as actual military troops, it seems the Brutes were sent off to "clean up" civilian population centers. Speaking of the city they were in (New Alexandria) and the mission named after it, JC showed you the Club and drivable Dropship Easter Egg, but he wasn't able to show you a third one: The buildings you go to and the tasks you do in the mission are semi-randomized, and there's a chance for one of the tasks to be to escort Buck from ODST to evac, showing how he made it off planet. Also, the original plan was that instead of flying across the city in the Falcons, you would have hijacked a Scarab and walked it through the already glassed city.... there's also one other major Easter Egg in the game, which i'm surprised JC didn't show you, but I think he may be saving it for the extras stream(s) so I'll refrain from talking about it. It's during a cutscene on "Pillar of Autumn", if you wanna ask him about it.
    JC also showed you the Bungie Farewell message, but in the original game, there was also an extended credit sequence after you complete "The Pllar of Autumn" but before the teaser with the PoA coming across the Halo ring plays (which is then when the message shows up). In that credit sequence, that is the ONLY time in game the full version of the "Tip of the Spear' music track plays, and midway through the track, it plays a tiny bit of the Halo theme, which is also the only time in game the main Halo theme plays aside from a few notes when Cortana shows up in Halsey's lab
    Lastly, regarding the Deliver Hope live action trailer, that is not only showing how the former Noble Six you're replacing (Thom) died, but also how Kat injured her arm: I'm not sure you picked up on it, but if you look at Kat in the cutscenes or in missions, one of her arms is a cybernetic prothesis..... I feel like there's some stuff i'm missing or i'm forgetting, but I need to sleep! AH WAIT, I remember one: The Seraph fighters you were blowing up during the Space mission is the same sort of space fighter ship that the Heretic leader in Halo 2 had in his hanger that looked like a flying saucer: It's at 2 hours, 34 mins, and 12 seconds into the Halo 2 VoD, if you wanna go back and look!

      Yeah I'm not a big fan of Reach. I can appreciate what Reach does for what its going for.
      But I feel like its cliché and contrived in places. That's really my only issue but as a lore fan I can't truly abide the butchering of Fall of Reach.
      I don't mean like a retcon (I just see it as different adaptations although you could try to connection) but just that this took center stage.
      Lore aside I wasn't a big fan of some gameplay decisions.
      Regardless Reach did cool stuff but I'm hyped for Halo 4.

    Actually the ships don't just look like giant guns, they are giant guns. The entire UNSC armada is built around the MAC round being the superior method of damage output. MAC rounds are basically giant rail guns that shoot 300 ton tungsten slugs at up to 4% the speed of light. Truly one of the strongest weapons in mankind's arsenal only beat by the nova bombs which are way less practical. Not to mention just using 300 ton tungsten slugs means they're increadibly cheap compared to shooting bombs or anything complicated.

Being able to use the ship in space, the mac cannon, the different cars, and seeing the big beasts is just so incredible. The level in the cave is so freaking good. Honestly, all considered, I think this is Bungies greatest masterpiece....I know that may be an unpopular opinion, but this game just hits different than Halo 3. Im biased though cause I played forge so much with my friends so I have so many good memories. Thank you Bungie:)

For example, when Carter dies with the Pelican, I'm almost certain we would of had a close up on his face while delivering his final lines so we could see his facial expression. Then the camera would probably have switched to Noble 6 and Emile's empty visors, who are looking at their commander die.
      But we didn't get that. We actually saw it the way Noble 6, the player, did. They didn't use the excuse of it being a cutscene to cheat what the spectator (us) could see (if that makes sense). We were there, on the ground watching 1's pelican turn around and head straight into the scarab while only hearing him by comms. All that and the camera was not first person either.

    Halo 3 will always be my favorite, but Reach holds a special place in my heart. It was the perfect goodbye from Bungie. We still got all the awesome action-packed gameplay with an incredibly emotional story. The Fall of Reach was such a big pivotal moment in the Halo lore, and for like a decade throughout the games and books there were always references to Reach and what it meant for humanity. Finally getting to learn Reach's full story was amazing.
    In case you didn't know, Halo's lore is vast and in-depth. There's so much that you'd have to read 10+ books to get most of it. It is one of my favorite fictional universes and has surprisingly good stories for an FPS franchise.

    The logo that was on the civilian at the beginning of exodus is the symbol that's on the doors in the levels of their previous title, Marathon.

    So, at one point Milo remarks that the human frigate looks like a gun, and I just wanted to share some Halo lore.
    It basically is. The main weapon of the UNSC ships is the Magnetic Accelerator Cannon (MAC) and in most of their ships equipped with it, the MAC is so massive and requires such structural support to keep intact that they literally design their ships around the weapon.

    Also kat drove me off the map so many times that despite being shocked she died, i was happy she did. The reason though that she got 1 shotted to the head was because the glassing beam they were escaping gave off a emp like effect and so much radiation it disabled the shields which is why the Covenant sniper was able to head shot her

    The meta aspect of Halo Reach is my favorite thing about it. If it wasn’t for us, we wouldn’t have Halo. We would never have this journey, this story, these memories. Bungie laid the path, but we made the journey. That’s why I love Bungie and Halo and the whole community.
    Halo has been a part of my life since I was four. Sneaking into my brothers room, playing on legendary because i didnt read the description, and getting lost on the ring will always be treasured in my mind. Playing with friends, online. Things I will never forget and I love sharing these feelings with someone new. I love you guys ❤️

Read all the books for years until the story got way to convoluted, and started watching Hiddenexperia because of that. But even then I’m learning só much about all the detail in the games, and the storytelling happening through the environments, but also just seeing more of the bigger story arc. I’m enjoying this series so much because of that, and also reliving the games through Milo’s unexperienced view. Thanks for doing this!

    If anyone ever wanted proof that Jorge is one of halo’s best characters just remember that Milo has constantly struggled with remembering names throughout his play throughs.
    He remembered Jorges name after 1 mission.
    Bungie did learn from their mistakes in odst, the odst squad are all memorable but never got the same amount of attention as noble team, you could argue that duch, Micky and Romeo could have been completely different and the story would have played out the same because the only important characters are buck, Veronica and the rookie.
    You know a character is not as memorable when a completely silent protagonist is more integral the the overarching narrative, and non of noble team seems to suffer from that.

    Listening to your conversation about character development and now that I can comment on it a bit deeper, here is some lore things that are no longer spoilers: I think the tighter knit characters and deeper personalities fits reach better than ODST. An ODST is trained from an older age and may be trained at separate times, for the most part Spartans are trained from a younger age and typically in a group together. Naturally Spartans are tighter knit and less trusting of non-spartans solely because of their training. I think that leads to a Spartan coming into the group and being closer off the bat with the new team than ODST where you could see more diverse backgrounds.

The analogies that you and JC gave about the stories and gameplay of all 5 are great food for thought.
    I'm embarassed to admit that being in the UK I haven't been able to watch the all of the streams in one piece... Although I have watched every second of them all!

    They never really "retconned" linda or the other Spartans. But most of the Spartans were on reach when it fell and since John was the only spartan to escape that was actually functioning, they assumed he was one of the last spartan 2s. Linda was in stasis in a cryo tube so john could resuscitate her. And the rest of blue team was spread out after the fall of Reach in a secret base. It wasnt until they returned to Reach between Halo 1 and 2 (in the book First Strike) that John is reintroduced to Blue team and several other spartan 2s like Grace were rescued (who inevidibly died later anyway.) Since the books came out in tandem with the games, most people just didnt know about it

    So after watching you talk about the swapping out sprint topic I have to say that when you say swapping out sprint makes you slower, but if you look at some of the missions, jetpack makes you faster like on exodus. You can skip half the mission with one jet pack jump.
    In mp sprint is really all you should run but the only 2 abilities I use in campaign is jet and sprint. But you are fast af when you know how to use jetpack properly
    But it was great to see you play reach. It's my favorite game and it's nice to see someone understand the story

    Halo Reach is arguably the best one of them all to showcase a military feel, aside from ODST I never necessarily felt a true military operation in the other games, moreover a save the world effort. With Reach they made it abundantly clear after Jorge’s sacrifice that Reach would fall, and that at this point you the player began having an inkling that you and your team may not make it out alive.
