I would still say the best part of Halo was the music. Every other aspect of the game has the small one or two things, but the music has never gone wrong, especially the original Bungie games.
Jonesy Same chief. But good things don’t last. But we as humans use the good things to create better things. Halo: reach and the good ole days of halo may be gone but. We will never forget them and we shall move on and prevail!
The 28 dislikes are people who died to grunts on easy mode 2023 edit: My comment is a relic of a less catastrophic time period in RU-vid lifecycle, back when you could see dislikes…
I'd rather have players who die on easy mode than players who never got to experience Halo at all. When I started playing Halo when I was 7 or 8 years old, I could hardly survive on easy difficulty. After a few years, my motor skills got more refined, and now I find it utterly boring to play on any difficulty other than legendary.
An extended hour, or as the learned men have called it, an hour and a half Edit: When I come back to this video, I always smile at the likes I have received. Thank you all
Coming back to this as an adult, I realize now how many different instruments actually play in the music we associate with Halo. Marty really went all out with the score and it really shows.
@@Drensoul O'Donnel and Salvatori are up there with the great composers. Maybe they yet haven't recognized video game OST or movie OST to be as big as classical scores but they definitly deserve a spot there.
some time ago I have been struggling with a depression that almost dominates me, to the point of ending my emptiness without inspiration. luckily I was able to resume my work and some of my activities, just that I am still alone, and I look forward to seeing my family again to try to recover. Halo always inspired me and helped me maintain it. for some it may not be the great thing, but I have every piece of music stored in my heart, because it manages to make me feel an air of inspiration, conviction. It is one of the things that I found in life that makes me move forward. Thanks for uploading this and right now. Greetings from Argentina rtas sorry for bad english
You are not alone man i find some motivation on overall halo when im depressed, lately im not having good moments on my life but halo music helps me to carry on
The first song already had me remembering my buddy. Lil talentz0228, I loved you man. Words couldn’t express it. But the memories we had together playing halo I will never forget. I just looked back and I have a file share of us fighting trying to survive on the last mission. But we failed. Anyone if you see this I miss you
I discovered Halo at the beggining of 2020, by watching a video talking about it, and the first thing that I've searched after this video was the Halo sountracks. I have much decisions I regret, but watching that video was not one of them, this is a true love letter to all Halo fans of the globe, and I hope this get more views. I, like everyone else that watched this video and many others knows how much this means to us. Thank you from Brazil. *I was blinded by Halo's majesty.*
Lasky's theme at 1:18:20 is one of the best pieces of music in halo, it's so nostalgic, melancholic... yet so heroic and hopeful at the same time, truly gives me chills. Hope they give Lasky the development and credit he deserves in the story in future games, he's a really good character and should be more fleshed out as is.
me gusto demasiado este estilo de ir poniendo la lista de reproducción dentro del video, se me hace una mejor estrategia y se ve mas chingón, con mayor presentación
Halo as a franchise is single-handedly responsible for the intense fascination I have with SciFi as a whole, genre and all. It never fails to latch onto me and pull me back into obsession year round, this series has always, and will always continue to be close to my heart, no matter the ups and downs. I'll never forget the first time I sat down to play Halo, specifically Halo 3. I was seven years old, my mom had decided to bring me along for a strawbale workshop she was participating in at the time, and there was only one other kid I could really hang out with who was around my age. His name was Panther, and his parents owned and ran the workshop. I think he was about a year and a half older than I was, so him and I had similar interests, but he was absolutely fixated on Halo at the time, and needed someone to play the game with him, so he decided to drag me into it. The rest is history. I never got to get my own xbox while I was growing up, it wasn't until I became an adult and had a job that I had to just buy it for myself. The only video game system we ever got was the Nintendo series, and that was only the Wii, and then the Wii U right as the new smash brothers game came out for it. Though I was grateful for that stuff, I just yearned to be able to play the game that I never stopped obsessing about. It led to the point that anytime I was over at someone else's house I would always ask if they had an Xbox, followed by if they had any Halo games, and whatever time I had I would spend it savoring the game, just trying to enjoy every moment I could until I had to leave. I watched all the videos about it online that I could, I'd book browse at Hastings and Barnes & Nobles for hours reading Halo books and comics, not even understanding what was going on, but absolutely adoring the series. My parents never wanted to get us an xbox, the only thing that makes me think why is because it had more violent games, and my parents were religious. Even then, though, my dad tried to be understanding of my interest in the series and he bought me two lego sets when I was about 12, but that's as much as he would enable it. Didn't help curb my obsession, though. It's like it just took hold of me and has never let go of me since. Nowadays, I work on developing my own SciFi universe. I have so many different characters and stories that I hope to tell one day. Whether they're a book/comic series, on TV as a running show, turned into a video game franchise, or whatever, I just want it to be as impactful, amazing, and deeply written with the love that the Halo writers did for their series. I hope that my life's work and inspiration will inspire others like this game has me. Maybe that's ridiculous, but I've learned to stop feeling insecure or embarrassed about it. This series had made such an impact on me, and many others like me, now I want to be able to turn around and do the same. One day, hopefully, my stuff will be published, one way or another.
I feel like this story is one as old as time. I know of so many people who were inspired by this series in incredible ways. Maybe it's the grand story, the impossibly beautiful music, or the incredible imagery, but it seems to be a catalyst for great universes. I wish you luck with your worldbuilding ambition. I'm sure it's already incredible, even if, like my ideas, it's just a large wad of hope and 40 pages of rambling.
Yo, I listen at this playlist everyday while im studying, and in this cuarintine its so good to hear music that reminds me one of the best videogames that I played on my childhood
Ghosts and Glass sends shivers up my spine. That track has always captured the melancholic nature of Reach so well. "They'll be another time" and the swelling chords with the minor key. It's a perfect little bubble of pathos that you can only experience with the unique medium presented. Also, I just recently realised that Lone Wolf's rally point is called Omega. The last letter. Been playing it for a decade and never noticed. I think it is because MCC puts the available rally points in a more obvious place.
For me, the Halo Reach music was by the far the most nostalgic and moving music in the entire Halo franchise. Great story and great music truly captured the ambiance of the entire experience. Looking back, I'm grateful that I spent that time playing my best friend. Family, careers and life have drifted us apart but when we get together we still crack jokes and reminisce about the good old days of being careless and spending 4 hours playing a game that brought so many of us together.
The first time I heard "True Arbiter" 00:09:09 when I watched Halo Legends, I immediately thought of Naruto lol. Like he's just alone walking through the village being shunned by everybody.
At the time I viewed this, 19 unholy demons consecrated this video. They have been blinded, paralyzed and dumbstruck by it's majesty. They have strayed far from the great journey beyond correction.
Man, the first one and ashes are the ones I remembered, but never knew the names to. Man, I agree with my brother; Martin O’Donnel is amazing. Now that I have listened to it so much, never forget makes me want to cry internally 19:16 these are the halo chords. Iconic, unique, thoughtful.
Absolutely perfect to listen to while writing for my GURPS campaign. I don't think any other franchise ever had an impact anywhere near as strong as Halo did on me. It's nice to be building a story for my players to enjoy while honoring the franchise that got me into the genre in the first place. It's a beautiful cycle that I hope continues forever. Cheers!
Classmates: Full marks are impossible to achieve! Me: Not without Kaidon's videos, they aren't. Music is so powerful, it can change your mood or ruin it. To be honest, it's the greatest creation man ever conceived.
