I'm self aware enough to admit that most of my negativity is because this show doesn't taste like the 'Member Berries I'm used to eating.

When I started dating my wife, she had never heard of Halo. Then she stayed up late with me one night when I started the Halo Reach campaign. She was interested in the story, started asking questions. She read the Fall of Reach book, then insisted I play through all the games so she could watch. She was interested in Halo as an entire universe. As a story being told. There is so much good stuff to build from...and the makers of this show basically said "nah, we're good. We'll write our own thing."

This is a Halo show about as much as 300 is a documentary on the Battle of Thermopylae. The names are the same....that's about it.

I'm just butthurt that they turned MC into a mindless, thoughtless, wool over his eyes military asset being manipulated by Halsey.

Whereas in the game, he knew what had to be done and even commanding officers let him do his thing.
