Fredrick, Kelly and Linda were chiefs closest friends and teammates from their group of Spartan Conscripts. Kelly is known for being the fastest runner, Linda is a master sniper and Fred has a fantastic mind for tactics. Kelly and Fred are the two helmetless spartans in the Pelican at the end of the movie Halo: Forward unto Dawn

Master chief thumb jiggle is due to an issue in the engine used to produced the game, since the shots are in game rendered shots there is a center of the world mathematically that the chief in that scene is far away from so the engine doesn't get to use as many decimal points that far out from the worlds center to properly display the information without it jumping around in place like that.

Also, the score is the best it's ever been in franchise, it's a real shame the story didn't live up to the hype.

My opinion on Halo 5 is a mixed bag. People might find some of what I say as a hot take but I like some of the innovation they took in gameplay elements such as Spartan movement abilities, aiming down sights. It gives the Halo experience a different kind of spin. The story itself for me was “It could have been better” to “it could have been different.” But who can resist the Master Chief, the Arbiter and the Nathan Fillion? And I will say that the openings for both Blue Team and Fireteam Osiris showed to a degree how powerful and skilled Spartans are on the field. Also the game we got felt a lot different from what the initial trailers advertised. A lot of the promotional material portrayed Agent Locke and Osiris as ONI’s reapers. The ones they send after Spartans going rogue. It felt like Agent Locke was Chief’s other side of the coin and was the only Spartan capable of hunting the legendary war hero. Instead the hunt became a team-up instead of a showdown. That’s how it felt to me anyways.

The thumb wobbling in the first cutscene with Chief is actually just a bug in the game's engine. The farther away you are from the map's center, the more some parts of character models will wobble like that. Infinite has that too, you can see it a lot on Chief's hand in first person.

Your summation at the end perfectly encapsulates how I feel about this game. Your words were almost exactly what I told my best friend after I played it, I'm glad I got more story and more halo but disappointed in how it all turned out. I also think that if the game had been titled as Halo 4: Guardians (kind of like Halo 3: ODST) instead of Halo 5, it would have gotten a much better reception than it did. People's reaction to only playing as chief in three missions while the overarching story was going on would have gone from "wtf why am I not playing as chief" to "Sweet we get to see what chief is doing during all of this".

I agree with you, the fight with Chief vs Locke was always lackluster, doesn't matter if lock could be leveling the playing field with his upgraded armor, they both should have been blindingly quick to the viewer. They both should have been destroying shit around them showing how durable/strong they are.

I really hate how they made Cortana into a villain. The ending of Halo 4 was so powerful, it was so unnecessary, and an incredibly bad idea to tarnish Cortana and make her into a silly megalomaniac villain. Having team Osiris in a Halo 4 side story game, would've been cool. The idea of Chief going awol and Locke going after him is an awesome concept, handled absolutely horribly in this game. Laughable, actually. Check out the Hunt the truth podcast! That's an incredible way to do a story about Chief possibly going awol. But as always, great video!!

This has probably already been mentioned by previous comments, but if you want to understand loosely what happened between Halo 4 and Halo 5, you'll have to watch the Spartan Ops which is a sort of post story. It takes place a little bit after 4 but not by much. Just like with this vid you'll need cutscenes and certain moments of gameplay footage to get all the context. Outside of the game there are a few books that bring up how Buck and Vale became Spartans and a book on Jul M'Dama himself. In case you were itching to read some good Halo Lore. To answer another question, ODST now Spartan Buck was portrayed by our boy Nathan Fillion. Locke was portrayed by Michael Colter.

The story so bad that they essentially sidelined it in Halo Infinite and soft rebooted. Imagine a mainline Halo game where you only play as Master Chief for THREE missions. Also you probably should have watched Halo 4 Spartan Ops before this, shows you how Halsey ends up with the Covenant and what they're up to. Also Locke IS Luke Cage, he appeared in a web series called Halo Nightfall. But the voice actor isn't him for this game sadly.

A lot of people had an issue with the Locke vs Chief fight because everyone thought Choef should've one shot him. But the way I look at it, the MJOLNIR armor exponentially multiplies your speed, reflexes and strength. Combine that suit with Locke's ONI background and he is definitely not going to be easy just because he is a Spartan IV.

some small lore details related to questions/observations made and other stuff first of all the cortana that appears in this is from the combined fragments she split off during the end of 4, the main cortana (prime cortana or whatever you wanna call her), the one who said goodbye at the end of that game, she’s dead. forerunner ships automatically jump to a safe space for repairs, so the didact’s ship jumped to genesis along with the cortana fragments a few things about vale: near the end you said she’s got a bit of an elite look to her, well lore wise she was a diplomat with the unsc focusing on inter species relations. Shortly after her 11th birthday she was on a ship when the slipspace drive broke, 6 day trip turned into 6 months and she figured she might aswell spend the time getting smart so she worked on translating the sangheili language, finding out a lot of the official translations were wrong and ended up developing an obsession with their culture. Also when cortana brings up her father it’s worth noting he was a spartan 2 candidate who escaped his abductors, the only one to do so. she’s also the youngest human seen ingame outside of flashbacks iirc, 22 during the events of 5, which means she was just 16 during the events of the original trilogy also when cortana calls them not real spartans near the end, it’s a callback to a line chief says earlier in the game where fred asks blue team what they think about the new kids on meridian (osiris), chief simply says “they’re spartans” as for the size of jackals, their average is 6ft 7 or 2m tall, they just appear short since you play as a 7ft tall walking tank. there’s also a part in the arbiters camp where a grunt walks past halsey and you can see they’re almost the same size, infact the average grunt is taller than the average woman and 1/3 of men, but a hell of a lot stronger

So some interesting info for you Kai. Whilst Mike Colter (Luke Cage) did play Locke in halo nightfall he was not available for voicing him in the game. The voice for Locke was provided by Ikechukwu Prince Amadi. Also I'm not 100% on this but I think Axis studios did the cut scenes and not 343

Now that you've seen the Halo 5 Guardians cutscenes, time for some lore. If you remember at the end of Halo Wars 2, there is a scene where Professor Anders gets teleported away while remaining on the halo ring. That halo ring is the same ring that is shown for the legendary ending of Halo 5 Guardians hence while you also see a guardian being summoned directly in front of the halo ring at the end of Halo Wars 2. "Its all connected man."

Another (often overlooked) weak point of 343 Halo games, and which got worse when moving from 4 to 5, was the lack of military consultation. It was a staple of CE to Reach, that almost every conversation was full of military jargon, and logical military decision and orders (insofar a civilian like me can judge) which gave the series some serious credibility for a scifi series. The lack thereof is really showing with Del Rio screaming like a petulant child in 4, for example. Also, but this can be a matter of taste, is that they made the IV's to over the top badass and full of themselves. Case in point is that opening cutscene, one of the worst ever I think. They take down a whole army by themselves, completely trivializing the Sangheili in particular. When they were always almost equal. Anyway, thank you for coming to my Ted talk. And sticking by me to the end 😉

They went too far down the route of space magic and spectacle. It was always science fiction, but the original games were largely grounded in believable technology other than the Halo rings, which made them feel special, and really emphasised the threat of the flood that such power was needed to stop them. Chief felt powerful, and yet still vulnerable and relying on skill as much as his technology, whilst humanity did it's best to survive. Now it's just a bunch of superheroes running about without much care as they effortlessly take out whole armies, whilst bad guys float around using force powers when it suits and a new super weapon appears around every corner. Nothing feels that special, which is why when they introduce the endless it’s just like, "oh, another floating bad guy that can throw stuff".

Right so yea they build her up as a villain but is thrown out in infinite. Also the reason she’s evil now is explained in a book… basically she was under the Graveminds influence to cause as much suffering as possible just as it did to the didact which also is in the book and wasn’t just killed off in a earlier book. The book is called Halo Epitaph

Cortana going rampant was part of the story structure since BEFORE HALO 1 WAS MADE. Bungie made a game called “Marathon,” back in the day, and in that game, an AI goes rampant and you have to kill it. So the plan was to always do this to Cortana - but people fell a little TOO MUCH in love with her before this storyline arc. However, I will say that her rampancy really helped me in a time when I was watching my great grandma go through dementia and slowly die. It also helped me understand the Me Too movement a lot more: heroes can always go bad.

The biggest issue was master chief, the LITERAL face of the game series for over a decade, was suddenly no longer the main character even though they hadn't displayed that at all in the advertisements before this. the most we got was a possible hint at a choice between being chief or locke in a confrontation, but even then it was fake. the best part was 343 came out of nowhere and said oh we didn't know he was the main character. apparently none of the staff ever played halo 1-3 or just didn't realize chief was a character who was in all three.

Halsey being in M'Dama's possession is a Spartan Ops story beat. It technically isn't a hallucination, Chief has access to the Domain, which Cortana also has access to. It's...not really explained too well in the game, that's more novel storytelling stuff. Smart AI, especially the Gen 3 variants are capable of being very 'human', in a manner of speaking. There are a few problems with the Chief vs Locke fight, in both how we perceive it and how it is. A lot of us forget that Chief isn't going to slaughter someone, he's not going to intentionally hurt someone on his side. At most, he'll incapacitate them and make sure they get a recovery team to rescue them while he moves on. However, the way they tried to portray the fight is also problematic. A fight between Spartans would basically be a blur of punches, kicks, and grapples, so they made the poor choice of slowing down their movement to make it seem like we were seeing it in Spartan time (where a Spartan perceives time at such a pace that they almost see the future, almost). All it did was make the fight look like two sluggish old men fighting at a bar. Her missing arm is another Spartan Ops puzzle piece. Part of her visual changes are because of the drop in rating from M to T. No no, that's fair. See, Halo 5 had a very rough development cycle due mostly in part to bad decisions made by executives. Microsoft likewise had a hand in its bad development, but largely it was due to mismanagement by upper execs. Halo 5 could have been a masterpiece, but sadly it fell a part.

for me the biggest issue with 4 and 5 was this art style it went for generic sci fi instead of the unique designs Halo was known for - this was fixed with Infinite, a lot of people hated the advanced movement but to me it was a step closer to being able to play as a lore accurate spartan, the story was mixed, some of the ideas and concepts were really good like Chief struggling and Cortana being the villian, but the stuff with Locke and his team was really boring, if it was Chief and Aribter working together to take down Cortana i think that would have worked a lot more

The most lacklustre hunt in gaming history. Personally, I would have preferred they left Cortana dead and if they really wanted to bring her back, approached it from the angle of him being given a new Cortana AI and struggling with accepting her since despite a lot of the data being copied across, it's not the one he went through everything with. Going this route of making her a generic AI bad guy kind of cheapened her character and the end of 4 for me. Also I think a lot of the fans who know some of the background lore from the books were frustrated they keep introducing new characters that nobody's heard of rather than pulling from one of the many interesting characters already in the lore. Halo Infinite's gameplay was pretty good overall, and they brought back the classic art style rather than the shiny plastic look with LED's everywhere, but be aware that continuity is going to be pretty confusing going into Infinite, as they kind of skipped past a chunk of the lore and explained the rest in the books. It feels like there is a game or two missing in between. Honestly, at this point, the lore for halo is a complete shambles like they were throwing stuff at a wall to see what sticks. But in short, Cortana and the Created (the AI who join her) use their power and the fore runner tech under their control to try and subdue all sentient species for their own good with force if necessary (yeah, the classic generic AI story). The infinity uses it’s advanced jump tech to avoid detection whilst it comes up with a plan, later meeting up with the remnants of humanities navy. Cortana then goes to the Alpha Halo Ring for some unknown reason. Humanity's navy follow her there to try and end her control. Meanwhile, the banished also follow her there for revenge (it's explained in infinite what for), and clash with humanity, and that's where infinite starts.

The funny thing is for everything people hated about Halo 4 gameplay wise, they were far more vocal about Halo 5's gameplay. Which I always found funny, because Halo 5's game mechanics are the closest to lore accurate spartans we'd gotten to that point. Though, hard to make arguments about the story, especially after the Hunt the Truth series that set it up so well and then was nothing but pure marketing and had no actual impact.

44:34 I thought it was. you actually felt like an unstoppable god of the battlefield. you were fast and lethal, in the original trilogy everything was just so slow. Reach fixed that a little, and 4 further changed things, but the Spartan abilities introduced in 5 (thruster packs, spartan charge, the ground slam, all of that) further increased the power fantasy of being a Spartan
