But there is something about him that I feel neutral about because I feel it’s hindering, but also interesting, you know? And I’m obviously talkin about his voice! If you guys have heard him in game, he talks in such a strange, almost vulgar manner, but clearly 10x smarter than, say, Decimus or Atriox, you know? His voice, interesting, and that’s not bad, I just haven’t heard an elite sound like this before, and many a day I hear talk about phenotypes and the benefit of matchmaking, but as me and ChocolateRey have discovered, it’d be a blast to have some sort of customization UNDER the armour, not necessarily the undersuit, but the skin, and the texture! Something makes me wonder if Shipmaster is a different phenotype-now yes, he’s clearly Sangheli and we’ve seen this kind of elite before, even ones that don’t habit that low voice we, or at least III associate with Elites! The voices of Halo 5’s elites, Halo Reach’s to an extent, according to the grunts they make and stuff! The last Shipmaster we saw in Halo 3, however, let alone the arbiter, they had the very human voice that I think those who have grown to THIS Shipmaster’s voice are used to! But not even they can say they’ve heard an elite sound like this! Could this be a potential customization option, I don’t know man, I’ve been loving Overwatch to death, and part of that love is the character’s voices! I’d love to interchange between them, even if it is for just grunting when getting hurt, but Oh contraire! Lately I’ve been hearing a lot of “Friendly fire Spartan”

I thought the Shipmaster is the phenotype we saw in halo 2 anniversary though. (I could be wrong.) He looks very similar, if not the same. Maybe his voice sounds different because of the place he comes from, an accent of sorts. A new clan or keep that hasn’t been mentioned, but in one of the the areas or on one of the planets where the h2a phenotype resides. Eather way, can’t wait for halo wars 2.
> > > > >
> > > > > Man me too though! Also sorry I actually believe he is a phenotype we’ve already seen, he is most likely the one you are talking about because I remember seeing him like that in the anniversary edition! I only said that he’s potentially different because of his voice! I thought that it might’ve been a secret as to the scraggly tone he has, so much so that maybe his voice was damaged, maybe tortured behind the scenes and that is something to think about however unlikely it is, haha! Also, I am with you! 'My faith in them drives the manner of which my money is spent, and that’s a terrible way of putting it but it’s true, haha!
> > > >
> > > > Um, what anniversary edition? The Shipmaster in halo 2 is R’tas Vadum, not Let Volir. Shipmaster Volir is a completely new character introduced in halo wars 2. (I may be misunderstanding who you are talking about.) I am saying that Volir may be from a keep or clan, comprised of the phenotype seen in halo 2 anniversary, we haven’t heard of or see before and that may explain why his voice sounds different. He has an accent so to speak. ( not necessarily a different phenotype) Then again, it may just be something unique to him to help distinguish his character from others. ( Sorry if there is misunderstanding.)
> > >
> > > Oh yeah, pffft I know Let’s not in Halo 2, by anniversary edition I meant Halo 2 anniversary, but I could’ve sworn you brought up a specific shipmaster in Halo 2 Anniversary that was the same phenotype, and I was just agreeing with that! But dude, I like that whole “Unique Character” Idea, I might just take that if its not explained, cause I did like the idea of Atriox “forcing” him to effort as the Banished Shipmaster, using some torturous means that might’ve involved damaging his windpipe! But that’s just a theoery! It sounded cool when I recited it in my head, haha!
> >
> > Ok, now I see what you mean. Speaking of theoerys, I wounder if we will see a plot twist in halo wars 2 where 'Volir changes sides. Something where he gets fead up with Atriox and joins Cutter. Taking orders from a brute starts to get to him maybe. Or, sence he cares greatly for his crew / values their lives, he can’t take seeing his troops die for a cause he may not support / being sent on suicide missions. Something like that causes him to change his mind completely and move on to the Arbiters line of thinking. What do you think?
>
> Also! I am so sorry! I am just so hyped right now! You wouldn’t believe it! I feel like they are really going to do this story right, and I am going to standby for when that happens man! And if Shipmaster is in it, like part of the story, he is going to create a conflict that I will hold close to me heart for the rest of the Halo Series!
My, My, you have a lot to say, lol. No need to apologize, I enjoy a good conversation. I am as hyped as you are man, I have high hopes as well. I believe the story is going to be done right. Its thrilling to have an established villain and I too can’t wait to see how Atriox’s portion of the story plays out, he is diffidently one of the more extreme and built up villains . I really hope that they will give the Shipmaster a big part in the story. I guess that may just be because I have a huge interest in the Sangheili, but hay that’s why I’m here man. I would like to see something like what I said earlier happen with him, but will be completely satisfied if they give him a good villain roll like Ripa in halo wars one. I too, like most here, hold high expectations for story content in the games and all the media for that mater. So I am completely amped for halo wars 2 s story!
If 343 adds playable Elites, Split screen, and an improved take on the forge for Halo 5 then I’ll be sticking around for a good while.

I deffinently support that, this is all they need to add (other then weapons and that sort of thing for those who want that). Make the story better and the game is set.
I wonder what is going to happen to Let after the events of Halo Wars 2.

You’re making it sound like coming up with a better story is some small feat.

Sorry, I know its not a small feat, its one of the toughest parts of the game to creat. I was just trying to keep my respons short, I have failed to at times though. Sorry once again.

I am curious adout that as well. I wounder if we will see the Banished, Atriox, Decimus ( I misspelled that, not the first time), and Let in Halo 6.

Atriox is going to be so cool! I may be a Sangheili, but dang I like me a good Brute!

we need the plasma rifle back (removing it was maybe one of the worst artstyle desicions 343 has made), also if they get to add dual wielding at least in social playlists, and also the classic Halo 3/Reach/4 armor customization, Halo 6 would be the perfect game (if they get to fix the campaign story telling too).

Removing a weapon is not an artstyle decision

Exactly my point
I’ll be annoyed if we only get them in customs/forge…
I don’t care about competitive, I want them in warzone tbh, that’d be great.

Yea, all social games and campaign. This is far for everyone.

If we get this, I believe most will be completely fine with it. I would be the happiest man in the world to have this, anything else is a bonus.

Halo 6 is looking promising I’d they follow that.

Odds are they won’t be in campaign unless 343 want to expand on a specific character that is a sangheli. Halos story has for the most part revolved around Spartans, and to me it’s sad cuz you then have people who won’t play it if it’s anything else. I personally believe halo can be much more than the chief, Spartans, ODST, ect ect due to its setting in space sci-for 500 years into the future. It’s why I’ve always loved BioWare games, they don’t restrict the story to a specific character for the most part which in turns lets other races be explored more.
