I'm sure General Battuta is a great person

But I am sick to death of only getting Battuta and Vaquero gear in drops.

I think that's a reference to the actual Battuta who was a writer and world traveler.

I DIDN'T DO IT

by General Battuta, Sunday, October 02, 2016, 12:59 (3066 days ago) @ Kermit

This, ironically, has nothing to do with me. The Comet strings were written after I left, and I think Jill Scharr just named this armor for the cool-ass explorer Ibn Battuta.

I doubt she had any idea what my online handle was.

e: altho maybe it's sort of a sweet 'best wishes' from Bungie telling me to be a bestseller :3

You have the intellect and storytelling know how to do so my friend. I mean, you did contribute to HRINC :-p

Yes, he has the talent despite that foray into one of your crusades--must everything relate to some argument you have to keep going?

Kermit, if you'd been keeping up I've come around to the plot choices in reach conflicting with Fall of Reach. I'm okay with it. Look at which emoticon I used. I'm not trying to prove a point here. Just having some fun. At this point that's all HRINC is.

One of the first things I did when I got to Bungie was start asking questions about what went 'wrong' (in my opinion) with Reach's campaign. It led to a ton of really fascinating discussions about the interaction between writing and design! I don't like Reach's story any better, but I understand a lot more about how it ended up the way it did.

I got to meet the guy who designed the awesome 'fight until you die' level, which was probably the best piece of storytelling-through-gameplay in all of Halo. He's cool. He worked on the recent game Asemblance!

If you want to accuse Cody of carrying an argument way too far, at least he didn't join Bungie so he could get the inside scoop :p

Any secrets that can be shared in a massive article for HRINC?

I think that would break trust a bit, unfortunately. These were personal conversations, not for-the-internet interviews.

Bungie would never ever hire me. Hell, they wouldn't even sell swag at Pax to the DBO admins if any of it were going to me! True story.

I got the Battuta reference, but assumed you were the guy to make that reference. I thought it was cute.

I don't think mine is as funny.
