now thats petty, halos always had extended lore outside the games, you’re just ignoring them because, well i don’t really know why or care. i mostly play the games but i like to wiki the books because their just so interesting. i like to know more of the story outside the games because it enriches my experience ingame and could serve as planning out the next one, the only problem i see is 343 cant hold back the story for the games. even if the games and books don’t always connect their both still apart of the story, and it’s ever expanding so they could change anything like they did for infinite.
Sure bud. YOU like to google wiki. Most people don’t nor care to, and that’s the reality of it. Nobody cares if chief armed wrestled god and won. Or if Nobel 6 is now a AI robot cleaning up the streets of Installation 04. If it’s not in the game, it does not matter. The games are the prime source of the story, it’s what 100% of the player base is exposed to. The developers know this and use this medium to convey what they consider to be the most relevant information. In these games the relevant information that is passed to every player is that IV’s are weaker models than the II’s, they are mass produced, and they die regularly.

you know humanity was mostly losing the war against the covenant even with better spartans they seem to do little in changing the tide, it was only till the elites joined humanity that they won.
i dont even know how this argument started when i said “they aren’t just made to die” doesn’t mean we dont see them dead or dying. the actual story is the spartan 4s exist for a variety of tasks on and off the battlefield, even though we see some levels with dead 4s that shouldn’t represent the whole lot of them. while we’ve seen chief survive the longest that definitely doesn’t represent the other 2s, or else we’d see a lot more in games.
