The Ark | Act I | Halo: Reach Machinima

It's September 2010 when Halo: Reach just released. Noah, an avid gamer and social recluse, is dumped by his girlfriend and as a result becomes the #1 player on the game. A clan of the top players on Reach takes notice of his skill and tries to recruit him where he meets a girl named Joan.

I lost it at "Christ is watching, and so am I!" God, the memories of 360 prox chat hit me like a tidal wave there.

[@SwampLad1019]

Stuff like this can happen. Something so bad can make someone get addicted that comforts them. I didn’t get along with other people at school and Xbox was my comfort zone. So I know what Noah is going through.

On a machinima binge. This shit still holds up. Holy shit it's so well made why did you stoooooop!

[@redtail564]

This came out six years ago as of writing. I was in tough spot, dealinv with early college and trying to keep myself going, somehow your channel caught on to me. Ark series made me cry because I went through a similar event in life but found someone who made my life happy. Want to thank you for making this machinima even if youre usually not on here as often.

[@johnson_737]

This is fr not only one of the best stories I’ve ever heard the camera angles are amazing throughout each part. I watched this during quarantine and I keep coming back to watch it about twice every year. You got to release some type of a part 2 to this entire series. AMAZING JOB with this series🙌

[@TickleMeTner]

love how simple it is. such vibey

[@breadsta5585]

[@unseendawnproductions8267]

It is impossible offline, your CR limit is 200,000 per day and I think you need 20 Million CR, but I like how the machinima did it

[@remnantproduction8518]

I died at the Freddy part 😂

[@divineraccoon1276]

Inheritor in 6 weeks is quite literally Impossible 🤣🤣🤣

This wasn’t what I was expecting based on the title but it was really good and really funny. If you need help on terms of voicing for more characters I’m happy to help out.

[@lava2266]

Yeah thought it was war or something

[@bleeksama2734]

Of course Romans good at bowling :D

Are you the other Matt Ackerman?

[@BlueStreakCinema]

XD Indeed good sir, I like your name.

[@Mackerman]

Thank you, my mother gave it to me haha

[@BlueStreakCinema]

Could it be possible we're both from different dimensions?

[@Mackerman]

That would mean the multiverse theory is true, and thats a good thing

[@helixredux4203]

Just saw all three parts, and man, I gotta say this was amazing! Keep up the excellent work! Maybe when I get some decent not-backwoods-internet again, I might look into how to make stuff like this.

[@drewdavalos2746]

This is a great machinima it got me in a really good upbeat attitude and actually reminded me of an old friend and that part actually made me a little depressed but that was only for a sec cus this is so cool! Noah and Seth kind of remind me of me and my best friend

[@drewdavalos2746]

and on second thought Freddie's got nothing on kids in my community, I bumped into a 5 year old going to pick up my little sister and he cussed at me so much I think he was just cussing because he liked screaming

[@XxQmanxXP2B]

[@the_priest_of_holy_moon_cult]

Imagine how hard it was for them no to laugh at freddie's bit

[@randy7853]

This is the best thing since sliced bread. So glad this was made and I was able to find it. (to anyone reading this comment. please give me some suggestions on Halo series to watch, these are awesome)
