Spartan removing their helmets mid-battle, Halsey being misportrayed (again), Master Cheeks doing it with a traitor, jackals having energy swords, Forerunner tech working however the script wants it, Spartan-IIs went through memory supression instead of being told by Halsey that they kidnapped them for a special program.

Absolutely agree with the editing bit. The Carnage Counts format and your editing does make it look like a show worth watching, that delivers on what fans wanted and to some extent were promised. Above everything else that irks me about the show is that in certain aspects, the attention to detail *IS* there. With the exception of the unfinished props, the physical props department was on point. The armours look great, the Warthogs looks great. As shown in a pre-release bts video, the minigun from episode one is labeled with the identification of the CMA, the UNSC’s predecessors to mark its age, an amazing little detail even some of the deepest lore and book fans would be forgiven for missing. While the CG is FAR from good and maybe not even “par”, there are moments that allowed for insight into Halo’s world we haven’t seen before. For instance, we have a true on screen representation of a Needler supercombine as well as the brutal reality of what would happen when Elites swing around swords of pure energy. Beneath the rot of preachy, cliché-laded storytelling; non-sensical character motivations and decisions and random oversimplifications of parts of the lore, there is a darker more mature Halo story that could exist down to the tiniest detail. Despite how hard the showrunners tried to bury that. So i have to hope against hope that the people running the show have seen our complaints and concerns and will be working to fix them for season 2
