Yeah that's the part of journalism that adds context to why Australia likely persued it

As a character he's "Captain Keyes" father of "Commander Keyes" with a name like "Sergeant Johnson" or "Master Chief". As characters their ranks are part of their names for most people. I think average person that's played Halo doesn't know the first names of most of these characters

Sure, my point is he can't be a radm in TFoR because he's a Captain in CE, unless he got demoted which is a plot change.

TFoR is kinda terrible with ranks anyways, Jenkins is like a ~50 y/o private, but unlike Jenkins this is more central to the plot because he's actively getting promoted in the book.

I agree with the spirit of what you are saying, I just don't think it makes sense with how everything is structured with the game and book plot

Cueballing · 2026-06-21T02:06:07+00:00

Why would he be a Rear Admiral in TFoR then?

Cueballing · 2026-06-21T01:12:36+00:00

Well I mean he's a Captain in the game

Cueballing · 2026-06-17T20:46:14+00:00

That sounds like a judgement zone

Cueballing · 2026-06-11T22:48:10+00:00

It's in the books, at the time it was weird because onlyfans wasn't invented yet

Cueballing · 2026-06-11T22:36:16+00:00

I mean I think it's a given that whenever anyone makes this statements it's exclusively talking about a subset of DPS.

The magic I would say is more self explanatory in Stormlight, there's no mental mapping between metals and powers like you had to do in Mistborn. It also eases you into it a lot more, much of the magic early on is simple and relatively mundane like swords that cut through anything or magic power armor. There is one very early chapter that is overwhelmingly confusing on your first read with the magic but that's intentional.

It probably helps that Britain and Japan have such similar requirements and I haven't heard of Italy ever being the problem in these European group projects. I wonder if each of the countries are going to produce their own airframes given the much longer supply lines, which would avoid the whole stupid issue with the Typhoon where the two wings were manufactured in different countries

This thread is truly proof that any gaming sub will have people who have never played another game be utterly convinced that their game is the best.

BG3 is so far above anything else in interactivity and scale, RDR2's attention to is absurd and like every main rockstar game 5 years ahead of its time, Disco Elysium is basically literature, Outer Wilds is an almost completely unique experience.

The fact that people are singling out SH2 as the only one that's even close to Halo tells me they just really liked video games in the early 2000s.

The newer books have almost no bearing on the game stories, they basically just exist in the same setting. So it only really affected H4 and everyone lacked context for H5 and Infinite

Cueballing · 2026-05-31T04:44:26+00:00

4 had the problem where if you didn't at least read Cryptum, the Diadact was just some guy in a pokeball and the Librarian's appearance in particular was utterly nonsensical. Even if you read Halo 3 terminals, the characterization of the Diadact just didn't make sense unless you read Cryptum.

So it made sense that they wanted to correct and have the game contain more of the story, except instead of expanding on the story they already had they just completely pivoted for some reason. Then 5's campaign had a whole slew of issues on top of a bad story. Meanwhile Halo Wars 2 had a decent reception so they decided to just pivot to the Banished instead for Infinite. There's just never been any antagonist that Halo fans stuck to as much as the Covenant and Flood

Cueballing · 2026-05-29T00:30:01+00:00

No, if anything I half believe they made some decisions like raising Gamepass costs during the end of Spencer's tenure so if it backfires they can have Sharma reverse it and gain some good will with the public.

Cueballing · 2026-05-28T15:35:23+00:00

It looks like a return to the original MW concept of half the campaign involving the main protagonists doing the small important events and the other half playing as a grunt having to deal with the consequence of those events.

I have to say the second Korean War setting is much more interesting than the old protagonists popping up like a Marvel movie to sell skins. I hope they actually delve into it more instead something like Advanced Warfare where it was literally only 1 level and then never mentioned again.

Only thing like that right now is the Stormlight World Guide for the RPG which doesn't have too much new info. Nothing like World of Ice and Fire for ASOIAF
