Rules:

1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Not only that, they probably would have been better off not using the original 4 playable characters since every game comes with a new set. Just make sure the side characters are done well and you keep the same feel as the games and it should have been an easy win

I think the Halo show could've been much more interesting too if they focused on someone not the main character of the games.

But no, gotta keep the most recognizable character

Only if they read anything about the games or books. Leaving master chief out doesn't fix the active contempt for the source material.

I would have fully supported a movie with Mister Torgue running around having adventures. Of course he would be played by John Cena in a mullet.
