Honestly, it could be worse, it's not bad

Kai is cute
I'm going to marry her

Meh I think its just ok. It has its problems and makes some odd changed from canon but I don't hate it. There are far worse video game adaptation and far worse sci-fi show also being put out by Paramount right now.

Was he seriously trying to superman punch Halsey?

Kai is a fictional character and probably a fucking dyke

They really tried their hardest to make her fucking ugly in the show

Oh, that's not good in the long term. They might have another season left, potentially a third one, but I'd be a little bummed if I were them.

Its absolute crap and has nothing to do with halo. Its an original show made up by a bunch of kike writers fresh out of liberal arts colleges and use the name of a well known IP to get people to watch it. But its absolutely trash.

:(
That's Qwan though?

didn't even watch the show, like half of the people in this thread that are talking shit about it.

Pretty sure it's already booked for a season 2.
It was kinda funny how once she got emotions she immediately did something to her looks.

Read a book nigger. Theyre way better than this shite

I have the three original books. Are they worth a re-read? Haven't read them in a long time.

>tfw no awkward 6'3" gf
it hurts

I wanna kiss her so bad

Halo is one of the dumbest, most intellectually and creatively bankrupt normalshit franchises of all time. It's a consoleshit shooter for people who say "bro" unironically and those sad losers who became "nerds" by necessity because they weren't cool enough to hang with the former crowd, not because they had any affinity for nerd interests.

Every moment is suffering

Sure "The Fall of Reach" and "First Strike" are probably worth a re-read. "The Flood" is mediocre though and just a novelisation of Halo CE.

It's dogshit from the moment Master Chief first removed his helmet.

I can't find Fall of Reach, but found First Strike and The Flood.

>Honestly, it could be worse, it's not bad.
that's the long way of saying it's shit

yes, and that's not even the most retarded bastardization. TWICE instead of locking up the mjolnir suit to stop him, they used retarded methods instead. A spartan can hold their breath for a long as time, that's why they augmented them. Biologically shutting him down makes no sense. Why is this show so retarded?

I don't know why people get so mad over this show, the games will still be the games and now with the time travel shit in halo infinite, you can just say this is an alternate timeline.

they already handwaved it with it being the "silver timeline" but that's not the issue. I'm frustrated because you would think after all the flops in adaptations where they made huge changes and all the successes where fans were given what they expected, they would know what it takes to make a successful show. But instead they pull the same shit. Halo has established proven lore, there's no need to change it. So it's not that they're ruining halo, it's that I can't believe incompetence at this level is still being found acceptable.

To me there is a big difference between making changes for adapting to another medium and making it nearly unrecognizable except for surface level things like they are doing with this show

I’ll post this again and again until paramount’s pr budget runs out
>the shills unironically have to say “okay so it’s not good, but it’s still okay!”
Bonus points if they use the “I’ve been waiting for some decent sifi” line.

He just found out she is a space nazi wh spent years kidnapping, brainwashing, enslaving and experimenting on kids. It's natural to want to punch somebody after you see and feel that happen to yourself on top of trusting your abuser for decades.

It's kino and I'm tired of pretending it's not

not for spartan II's. They're already fully indoctrinated and are 100% for the cause. Their family is the other spartans, they don't care about their original family.

Tell me how I know you're a virgin.

I dropped it after three episodes. If we're being honest, if it didn't have the Halo name attached to it, absolutely no one would care about it.

>Dr. Halsey's intent was to mold the candidates into effective soldiers through "persuasion and acclimation" as opposed to the brainwashing suggested by some of her colleagues within ONI, believing that in order to be truly efficient the Spartans must be able to properly understand and embrace the significance of their mission. As such, the Spartans possess a profound understanding of their role as weapons and the weight of the life imposed on them. Most of them do not hold grudges over their abduction and treatment, instead having come to embrace their lives as a Spartan as both a necessity and something they were born to do.

The story even if it doesn't follow the games well is still good imo.

if you're going to shill, you can't be obvious about it and say really stupid lies like that.

Ah, guess I should not talk about Halo and talk about the nth capeshit movie.

fuck off shill, you're not talking about halo, you're just given the same stick to the script responses. The story, even if it doesn't follow the games, is absolutely shit. It's not even remotely good.

Have you even watched it?

unfortunately every last second.

Its nothing great but I could live with the story if there was more action. No one wanted a Halo show this slow and boring.

Yeah, this is still brainwashing. Brainwashing is not magical mind control, it's manipulating people into accepting the reality you choose for them via various methods, sometimes violent, applied over the course of months or years.

Yea I agree with that. The whole 2nd story with the asian chick is completely unnecessary. They're drawing it out a bit too much. This is before the fall of reach though, and I assume they will lead into that.

don't be that autistic faggot arguing over semantics.

I think what the quote is saying is that they passively got them to submit, not through any explicit means. Like they didn't strap them to chairs and erased their memories like the show implies they did. They just culted and stockholm syndromed them into being spartans.

It literally says this is not brainwashing, then describes brainwashing in detail. This ain't autism, it's fifth grade reading compression.

>It literally says this is not brainwashing, then describes brainwashing in detail.
Literally? It literally didn't. Persuasion and acclimation isn't brainwashing.

It is when it's applied to kidnapped children being raised as child soldiers while being experimented on and routinely traumatized in other ways at the same time.

see

Tell me how I know you can talk about Warcraft lore for days but can't name a single TNG episode without looking it up. Halo is for braindeads.

Well, all I can say to that is it just makes it sound like Halsey or whoever wrote that quote does not understand what brainwashing is. That, or maybe Halsey really is a narcissistic cult leader who thinks /her/ brainwashing was just healing to the kids. The plot thickens.

Idk why they didn't just use Cortana from the games; it was legitimately that easy.

>you can just say this is an alternate timeline
or just not canon

>could have had band of brothers but ODST or even a group of spartan
>instead we have retarded angsty no helmet chief running around like a faggot

It could also be better.

biggest mistake was starting the series already in conflict with the covenant. Makes the whole point of having innies retarded.
