Good riddance, it was Halo in name only. That trash won’t be missed one bit by anyone.

Halo’s been fucked since 343. Paramount was just kicking a corpse.

Commendable for them to try and make a series about the biggest void of personality in gaming.

I hear they even tried making him relatable to G*mers

My dad never played the games but was kinda into the show. Even he wrote it off when it ended ‘continued in 2026!’

I still don’t understand how they bodged it so thoroughly. There’s no shortage of people who played the games, and no shortage of story in the games. Even the Rooster Teeth crew did a decent job of fucking around in roughly the same universe.

All the Spartans should’ve been the tallest stage actors they could find. Big ol’ dudes who can do enough with body language that the cheap seats know what’s going on… and then get in the recording booth and project like they’re used to talking through an inch of armor. Even in the games, the story is mostly told by normal-sized people dwarfed by these walking tanks.

Actually that points to another missed opportunity: they could’ve exclusively cast normal humans from actors 5’5" and under. Shorten the legs on furniture, shrink the UNSC uniform details, let the world convey that these people are the tall and fit military types. Then it’d be dead easy to cast literal and figurative brutes who tower over them.

Better luck next time.
