Same, it gives me chills everytime Halo is just a beautiful as hell game, and the lore of halo does, and always will inspire me to look beyond, to the stars I ❤️ Bungie, 343, Marty and Micheal, and every other person involved in the game
It’s so incredible to me that Marty was able to create a song with a double meaning while STILL being emotionally impactful in both situations it appears. First it’s conveying the daring, stealthy rescue of captain Keyes from the Truth and Reconciliation, and in that circumstance it has a tone of being dire but hopeful. Then in Two Betrayals when chief walks out of that massive forerunner tunnel into the icy canyon he’s met with the sight of covenant desperately fighting for their lives on a hill, back to back as the flood endlessly assault them. In that circumstance it’s somber and makes you feel a fleeting sense of sympathy and brotherhood with the Elites.
@@Darth_Supaku "Cloaked Under Cover in Blackness of Night", I would have probably called it. (I made the "Trapped in Amber Clad" video, the Halo 2 equivalent 😁)
Brings me back to the nights I would just sit and listen to all the best halo tracks, I miss when halo had more sentimental value than what people give it credit for nowdays
Nicolas Miller lol I’m pretty mediocre/bad at halo but I love playing it from time to time. I might have to add you one of these days, I love those old campaigns
Truth and reconciliation & Two betrayals. Back in the old master chief Saga, Halo CE was like ME1, nobody expects nothing from you, even if you were a super soldier (when expanded universe wasn’t present), nobody was expecting that you will save the world, you just were following orders, surviving the covenant. Fighting in an unknown world (ring).
The story still had mystery to it's setting. Halo1 had a feeling you'll only kind of get from 2, 3&4 and promo materials blew the lid open on all of the series unknowns 😔 Look up the Gnomes of Halo, Golden/Yellow Banshee stuff, Cortana Letters, HBO, cancelled games, major fangames & cutting room floor deleted & bonus content sometime. Universe was big way before 343 took over, lol
I don't value Halo CE that well for its gameplay, but the score was just so ahead of its time. It's even more exceptional considering this was a completely new IP
Halo CE actually has my favourite gameplay of the series. It wasn't always, but it all just clicked into place for me at some point when I was playing through the series on legandary. I realised just how well balanced its campaign sandbox was compared to the other games. Not a single weapon in that sandbox I wouldn't be happy to use, but in all the later games there's a lot more reliance on the br/carbine. It's pretty much mandatory for halo 2
Yupp at least the one on halo infinite is a remake of halo ce not the others ce is the most night time theme ever and infinite not 2 that sounds heroic and 3 kind of idm
It’s sad that there will never be a halo as good as this one. Halo will never b the same and neither will any other game. Old games just have this charm that can’t be replicated
Both versions, add something to the other, that the other just lacks. Would be nice if the got the guy that mixed the anniversary music to work alongside Marty.
This is a rare occurrence, where I actually appreciate the remastered version of the song. Because most of the time, they took an awesome song and turned into literal garbage. No offence to Tom Salta etc. but.. yeah sorry but just my opinion. Yours is ok too!
