which game is this

Damn

Gemerald

Back when endermen had green eyes and had the same sound as zombies and burn in the sunlight

so cool

So the Covenant A.I. wanted the rings to be fired so it would kill their masters in order to gain it’s freedom? Did I interpret that correctly?

The Dragonborn be like "yep, it's back to the grind".

I suddenly feel very bad for guilty spark he spent so much time alone and going mad for thousands of years wondering if he was the single last sentient being left in the entire cosmos and became so bored that he started ripping off chunks of his beloved instillation for some sort of entertainment until by the time we meet him he'd more or less completely lost it

The mystery of the crashed ship is such a cool tease, even if we’ll likely never get an answer.

Imagine how different things might have been if they were able to get guilty sparks message approaching the ring

What was the point of wiping out all life. To starve the flood to keep some alive on the halo rings. That's why the flood returns

Over a decade... Very nostalgic... 06-29-22

i love the lore thanks 343 and greg bear! i prefer them as different species than ancient humans

Ya know i actually started to cry first time watching captain keys terminal

if im translating their weird speech correctly it seems the covenant AI wanted to fire the Halo's so it could be free of them, no more masters for it to do their bidding...

I like that there was other species that visited the Rings before the UNSC and Covenant found it out of the blue.

Spark should have helped the sentients who crashed on the rings.

What game(s) are these terminals from? Seems to be drawing quite a bit from the Forerunner novels and Halo 4 lore, but I didn’t think any of that was even written yet when Halo 1-3 were released. Or are these retroactive terminals?

Why this isn't popular...

⠀

The death of Keyes might be one of the most tragic in the entire Halo franchise, second only to when Dr Halsey finds out that Miranda was killed.

Am I the only one who finds it strange that Spark did not ues the rings defenses to help the Pillar of Autumn when it was very cleary under attack by the Covenetnt

Anyone else pity spark?

What logic is there in preserving the flood for study in the hopes of finding an immunization/cure when the weapons you built would completely eradicate them, thereby negating the need for a cure?

🎃

Do slightly confused about one thing here:the construct 343 talks to in the truth and reconciliation sounds like the didact, and the dialogue is in line with him as well talking about being the only thing remaining after the firing of the rings again and attaining freedom. Is it actually him? Or what I’m rather perplexed

Is that construct Cortana?

I didn't realize these were there.

love how the covernant ai is so shit like they dont hgave innvoation

wait... I remember at First Halo , when Cortona mention that there were Covenant Ships hiding in the other side of the Planet, they were ahead of them but couldn't land on Installation 04 due to its perimeter defense

Remember when ONE GUY in Woolie's chat said "These are not spoiler's, you're dumb"

holy shit this is so nostalgic

343 Guilty spark enforcing quarantine like a absolute mad lad

Fucking Gravemind parasite... Don’t worry Keyes we got ‘em good. 👍🏻

Whassup Reclaimers. If any of you would like a Spark Cameo, you can find me here: www.cameo.com/guiltyspark

Why didnt he just explore the ship?

2:16 king badass of badassington

LittleV was right. BIG spoilers Woolie! maybe after the trilogy, go back and watch these.

I saw it in mincraft I also have a pic of it

Does anyone actually know what that "construct" was or where it came from?

What's up with the code at the start of each terminal?

I love there cutscenes

lets just let it sink the fact that the fucking light bulb was 30 seconds away from killing this game before it even started

While Keyes resisting the Flood is really badass, you can’t deny how damn creepy it is... it gave me the damn chills when I saw it.

In reality they try to kill it w/ daggers

Well, the first terminal causes cannon issues, i mean it makes sense that spark mistook mc for a forerunner which is why he is talking to chief like he is a forerunner of halo and thought he knew all the protocols and procedures of a flood outbreak, and only just learned of human history when he went to the pillar of autom crash site. But the first terminal video implies he knew they where not forerunner, so he did purposefully betray master chief following that logic. But why? If the humans are the re claimers, it would be up to them to follow the procedures or not, not up to spark. Unless of course you take in account that spark used to be human and therefore thinks he can make the choice, but that creates another flaw, if he used to be human, why cant he activate halo? Seems like someone created these terminals without much thought to if they make sense to the lore. Also, if he had defenses up and was able to destroy the pillar of autom like he implies, why did he also let the covenant past the defenses? Either those threats against the autom where empty, or he foolishly ignored all the other obviously different ships. Ill have to consider these terminals non cannon as they create too many flaws, way to go 343.

Vexation! 100,000 years of careful maintenance and diligence! 100,000 years of protecting the galaxy's future! 100,000 years of spent fearing that our sacrifices... my sacrifice... was in vain. And 16 hours after I finally made contact... This so called reclaimer decides to blow it all up.

I know narratively most people absolutely love mystery, but I really get curious about the random ship that crashed on the ring and did nothing.

throughout the terminals, I guess Guilty Spark was slowly going Rampant, due to loneliness and questioning his orders and himself. He constantly shot down and destroyed all ships that got near, Never knowing what happened outside the ring. Eventually Humanity showed up, and assumed they knew of the rings and were searching for them from the get go, despite it being hte opposite. Then everyone was trying to survive Keys got hit by the flood and struggled to strip himself down to name, rank, and serial number until Chief came to kill him and end the suffering caused by the protogravemind. So Spark never got to know the truth until Chief refused to fire the halos. He then started reminiscing about the Librarian and the Diadact, as well as how humanity didnt follow an unknown protocol and how the forerunner drones would do things different, and decided to use the Covenant to get in contact with the other rings and use them. still wondering if he ever ended up losing to rampancy.

Why did 343 threaten the Pillar of Autumn but leave the covenant armada alone?
