The Halo TV Show RUINED The Fall of Reach (Season 2 Episode 5 Review)

[@TRG_R17]

They really puss out the destruction of reach. Even modern Bungie would hate how they treated the fall of reach.

[@djanthaz]

Modern Bungie isn’t as bad as people make them out to be. Modern day Bungie could still save the Halo franchise, easily.

[@ascissordollynamedgwen9409]

Honestly Halo reach didnt do a great job of showing enough of reach's fall either. Considering how massive the covenant invasion was made out to be. We saw two small glassings in New alexandria, two frigates blow up two scarabs with some longswords, and after Kat's death we saw some burning buildings... Nothing really eye opening tbh. Neither did the fall of reach movie, although it was very well done. Just doesnt show much, of covenant destruction. Just small bits and peices. So Bungie missed the mark on Reach's fall also. Honestly go replay the game. It's mostly just noble team receiving orders and losing the fight. More than showing Reach itself.

Glassing of Reach not in CGI budget. Glassing half full.

[@JynxedKoma]

They've fucked with the timeline massively by taking Chief off of Reach to another planet during the glassing. He NEVER left Reach during it's final hours until the Pillar of Autumn left it. At which point, he was already in cryo.

[@nobodykayaks1041]

id argue its a glassing half empty, but im too pessimistic for this show

[@ninethieplays]

It's hard being a Halo fan these days

[@Methyll]

no its not it quite easy, the show since before season 1 premier already said this is the silver timeline the non canon timeline, so no issues as it does not disrupt the original lore.

[@ninethieplays]

@@MethyllThats such a strawman excuse and I'm tired of people thinking that justifies creating a show using Halo's name as a vehicle to push some genuinely awful writing that wouldn't have made it off the cutting room floor had it not been attached to a franchise name. "It isn't canon" then WHY MAKE IT

[@Methyll]

@ieplays I think it perfectly justifies it. Especially given that the mass majority of other IP adaptions are straight connection of Canon OR go out of their own way to subvert it to by saying there is superior. In these products regardless of the outcome the original lore is fucked because it has those connection. This adaptation did not go out of their way to say it superior and it went out of their way to say that has no connection to the original timeline, that is very good, because its OFFICIALLY says it has no credibility by their admission, so I can easily think and enjoy the actual halo series and completely ignore this without consequence.

[@kledu6028]

@@Methyll theres still no reason for the show to do such a shitty representation of the most basics concepts from the source material, it could be a non canonical show with its own original storyline and still do a good representation about what halo is, but it doesnt, it doesnt even made a good sci fi show because is so poorly written(especially season 1). take the castlevania show like an example.

I used to think the writers didn't have any clue what they were doing but that's changed now.

It is very much giving the impression that they want to destroy halo. And you are right the fall of reach being one episode...? Wtf. Chief is asleep for the fall... Wtf?? Why does anyone know what the Halo ring is yet? Noone has been to it, they should have zero knowledge of what it is. Why is the arbitrator called the arbitrator?????? He hasn't gotten that title yet. Nothing in this show makes any sense. I hope to fuck in the next 16 days (in-story) they don't get to the wrong and the covenant set it off and it kills all of the galaxy to end this abusive story telling. What an absolute insult to everything that is halo. Remember they get to the ring 19 days after the fall of reach. 2 days chief has been out, 1 day this BS story on some random planet has taken place so that gives them 16 more days before the covenant set the ring off not knowing what it does. If chief doesn't blow up the pillar of autumn then that's game over for the entire galaxy.

They ruined the reclaimers from the lore. They ruined New Alexandria (WTH is Reach city?! Lazy writing!) They ruined the fall of Reach. Now I guess that it will go so that Makee and the Arbiter will find Halo. Then Cortana will send the location to Master Chief and they will arrive there in their pirate ship. No Pilar of Autumn, no Keyes, they are one event at a time wiping the most iconic moments that are in the lore and what would make the series look awesome, emotionally in the right way and dramatic. Come on, imagine the start of Halo CE on the big screen! How cool that would be!!! They could´ve made it so that it is the first episode of season 3 while the escape is the cliffhanger of season 2.

They could have spent the rest of season 2 on Reach alone.

[@ImKevBe]

The last part of this episode it seem there all Spartan 3 which are going to be lead by 125 to there deaths! The writers are going in the wrong!

[@Wahhabaaron]

How tf is the fall of reach not the focus

[@SeraTheSeraph]

No fall of reach, its all about shamans and magic and kaun whatever her name is 😂

[@ccrrey6121]

Droped it. A mess without sense, leaving spartans as non-essential personel, vannak death was disappointing, mix a fantasy and religion on trama, reach fight even the little (to little to be honest) it showed was reduced to a bridge.... Damn. Forward Unto Dawn was much better with much less budget

[@ChoomOfDoom]

Not even a whisper of Noble Team. Truly the most show of all the times as Chief would say

[@haydenmcauley7715]

This series is the equivalent of m night shyamalan screwing up avatar. The pillar of Autum was a fundamental part of halo 1, it introduces so many different storylines. They have so much source to work from and instead theyre creating a sci fi feelings show, its so disappointing.

[@Gravelgratious]

The covenant ship was definitely the Truth in Reconciliation.

[@gsamalot]

The fall of reach the most epic moment in human history that saw the death of many spartan and signal the doom of humanity and lead to the events of halo falls in one episode and happens off screen with master cheeks here FUCKING ASLEEP!!!!!! WHO WROTE THIS SHIT?!

[@DPham1]

This show has done an amazing job of making me not want to watch it anymore

[@johnsmith-tt6to]

The budget of halo should have been the same as avatar and then the FALL OF REACH would have been amazing

[@Eli-gn1em]

Given it’s a tv show with clear Limits on the budget i don’t understand the whining. I liked the show

[@mikalhernandez]

At least we have the waxing of 298 Spartan 3's to look forward to.
