@VogalGryph @RetronicGamer I give up. I don’t care.

[Valen ‘Duram @Disgraced_Elite]

Alright, cool. A bunch of ex Bungie Devs confirmed Humans *used* to be Forerunners. Doesn’t change the fact they’re not anymore

Which is still in my eyes a great lore change given how much 343 expanded things that Bungie never did. Bungie era Halo also flip flopped on this point

[evolved 🇦🇺 @evolved117]

So that’s Marty, Marcus and Joe that have confirmed Humans are forerunner

Cry more 343 defenders

[Valen ‘Duram @Disgraced_Elite]

@VogalGryph @RetronicGamer The lore was changed by 343 not o’conner, that’s what I’m referring to.

[Valen ‘Duram @Disgraced_Elite]

@RetronicGamer @VogalGryph The old lore exists, I’ve never said it doesn’t
Not once in any of my posts did I say that

[Valen ‘Duram @Disgraced_Elite]

@henchgirlsylva I can’t help it

[Valen ‘Duram @Disgraced_Elite]

@VogalGryph @RetronicGamer I’m being civil, nothing I said was meant to be inflammatory. Just once again stating my stance on matters and facts of this situation; the lore got retconned

[Valen ‘Duram @Disgraced_Elite]

@VogalGryph @RetronicGamer Lore got changed, I don’t know what else to say. Retcons happen

[Valen ‘Duram @Disgraced_Elite]

@RetronicGamer @VogalGryph I’m not going to admit I’m wrong when the new lore states that they’re not. Forerunners got retconned, it really doesn’t change that much in the grand scheme of anything other than add contradictions which Halo lore was already known for even when it was owned by Bungie

[Valen ‘Duram @Disgraced_Elite]

@RetronicGamer @VogalGryph I just don’t care anymore, there’s zero sense in me arguing my points.

[Valen ‘Duram @Disgraced_Elite]

@shreksnow You use the word retard a lot I’m noticing, starting to wonder if your projecting onto others because of your own deep rooted insecurities
Got something you wanna get off your chest buddy? Or do you want to keep whining and calling people retards to make yourself feel better?

[Valen ‘Duram @Disgraced_Elite]

I like the 343 era lore and no one can change that. The games could’ve been better and I’ll never disagree on that

[Valen ‘Duram @Disgraced_Elite]

Been fascinating to see the replies on this post, to those who had a conversation with me I am thankful and for those who argued senselessly… well thanks for that too

I honestly just aired out my opinion and got called a retard or stupid mostly, doesn’t bother me any

@JRedpilled I’m literally gay, have a boyfriend and all. So go off I guess lmao

[Valen ‘Duram @Disgraced_Elite]

@el_FG_ Exactly

[Valen ‘Duram @Disgraced_Elite]

@Parker_Guth Much love to you and your opinion, always nice to see someone on the same page

[Valen ‘Duram @Disgraced_Elite]

@AbbongJin Wasn’t bait, genuinely love 343’s EU
Not arguing the games aren’t keeping up with Bungies, but the lore content in the novels is far better imo

[Valen ‘Duram @Disgraced_Elite]

@corporal0524 If they stuck with it and saw it through the story would’ve at least been coherent by the end

[Valen ‘Duram @Disgraced_Elite]

@corporal0524 You understand the drastic shift from 5 to Infinite was a response to fans like you having such outrage towards the changes made in it right?
5 picked up from a proper conclusion with 4 and used a point from a comic to work off of, so that one is on them I agree.

[Valen ‘Duram @Disgraced_Elite]

@corporal0524 Halo 4’s was pretty straight forward, as was Infinites. 5’s did not have a very coherent story whatsoever
The writing might not have been the best, but 4’s writing and Infinites still beats H3’s

[Valen ‘Duram @Disgraced_Elite]

@ShoddyLegion Infinite was supposed to be a dramatic shift back to Halos roots as a soft reboot in a sense which avid 343 haters still didn’t like despite the art direction and story going much more back in line with setting up ominous threats
Granted it didn’t do a lot well, but it was rushed

[Valen ‘Duram @Disgraced_Elite]

Ah yes, let’s bench lore that’s largely fine and only adds to the story.

Easy way to fix the problem Halo has; stop putting key plot details in books. Didact convincing Cortana to off herself, Cortana tricking Warden Eternal and so on.

Show important character moments in game

[Marcus Lehto @game_fabricator]

I would probably bench much of the current lore - respect it, but build a new future narrative for both the old and new audiences which makes much more sense.

[Valen ‘Duram @Disgraced_Elite]

@ShoddyLegion Halo 4 had a relatively decent story in the end, making it non-canon is pointless. In my opinion it would’ve been a good place to stop telling chiefs story
Halo 5 was all over, Created could’ve been good, but too many didn’t like 343’s shake up for that game and we got Infinite
