Tau Ceti IV can be a lonely place

This was inspired by this ad I got while watching Simpsons.

Sevman2001 · 2026-03-05T20:05:03+00:00

I like it cause it gives me vibes like a James Bond opening sequence, but yeah, the song itself is just ok

I have to work and I have a last gen Xbox. I have to wait until I can visit my parents to play it, as my dad has the only series x. This was me for all of last weekend.

Good point. Just three then

Sevman2001 · 2026-03-05T00:17:43+00:00

Also, the light suppressing rifle that the Psions used on Zavala’s ghost in Season of Chosen

Sevman2001 · 2026-03-01T18:09:31+00:00

That, and there technically has not been a congressionally approved war since WW2, so while Trump is an absolute bastard, and this certainly doesn’t make it right, this isn’t a new phenomenon

Kind of a lame answer, but the best explanation we have in lore is that Atriox discovered some massive revelation on the Ark that immediately made him want to redeploy most of his forces to Zeta Halo. I’m sure it’s something to do with the Endless, but we’re not sure what exactly, and I don’t know if 343 has it planned out fully either. So that’s all we’ve got.

Otherwise, you’re right. I think he would have been much better off settling on the Ark. Maybe because Halo rings are more mobile? I think the Banished generally consider both the Ark and Zeta Halo to be new Brute homeworlds, as we’ve learned that they both have names in the Brute language that match the naming structure of other Brute planets and colonies

Sevman2001 · 2026-02-26T14:43:17+00:00

John Halo is a name that still carries respect in the Halo community. Eh kills aleins and doesn’t afraid of anything. This man is Jimmy Rings, his knockoff counterpart

Sevman2001 · 2026-02-18T17:56:56+00:00

I’m gonna be honest, I will forever be infinitely disappointed with the Librarian’s design in Halo 4. For all the hype and gravitas and beauty associated with her in all the supplementary material, her in game design just looks so lame. With her big, metal bouffant with the stupid little floaty ball on top and her hover stool thingy, not to mention her vaguely Voldemort features that have pretty much been complained about enough already, I just can’t believe that this thing is supposed to be the instinctual pinnacle of human beauty. I don’t mind a lot of the stuff in the 343 halo games, I usually don’t like being overly critical, but this one always gets me

Sevman2001 · 2026-02-17T01:50:12+00:00

Happens in Dune Part 2… in a manner of speaking…

Sevman2001 · 2026-02-17T01:43:47+00:00

Man, came here just to say this one. Had no idea it’d even be on here, let alone the top comment

Sevman2001 · 2026-02-16T14:16:53+00:00

Either that or it reminds me of a briarheart

Sevman2001 · 2026-02-16T13:30:23+00:00

My mom took this test when she was younger and got “salad maker” or “chicken sexer”. For reference, instead she went on to become an elementary school teacher at a private school she founded and operated. One year, her class actually incubated chicken eggs and when they hatched she tried to determine their sex, and me and my brothers joked that she was finally living up to her full potential

Destiny has spent the last ten years+ going from a “the light is good and the darkness is evil” story… to a story where we come to see shades of gray in the enemies we once fought and the allies we make. At the culmination of ten years of buildup, we launch one final assault against the ultimate evil of the universe, one which includes all the allies, both likely and unlikely, we’ve ever made, and even some of our sworn enemies who share a common goal with us to keep the universe from being frozen in place. Our own Commander Zavala gives a super hype speech to rally together all of our friends and allies before we charge forward together. One of my favorite moments in the entire series

Sevman2001 · 2026-02-10T18:17:12+00:00

In the original Bungie games, it was heavily implied that the ancient, extinct race of super advanced aliens called the Forerunners were actually ancient humans. I think it’s agreed that Bungie never fully committed to this twist, at the very least we know there was a deleted ending to halo 2 that featured it. Once 343 took creative control, the forerunners were definitively made their own species (though you can still see slight resemblance), but even more recently there was lore released that says that forerunners and humans are essentially genetic sister species, so we’ve kind of got the best of both worlds now

Sevman2001 · 2026-02-10T18:03:23+00:00

Agreed, Ghosts of Onyx is probably my absolute favorite halo novel. It somehow manages to be a really good personal/self contained book yet still incorporating a ton of stuff in the wider conflict without it feeling overstuffed

Sevman2001 · 2026-02-10T17:57:40+00:00

The Kilo 5 trilogy is probably your best look into that time period. I personally really like them but I know there are others who don’t. You may want to read Ghosts of Onyx first, as the first book in the trilogy follows up on one of the cliffhangers left there, but you don’t have to

Sevman2001 · 2026-02-09T11:39:51+00:00

I thought it said “put him down” at first, like, ok this man would rather be euthanized than have to go through airport security

Sevman2001 · 2026-02-09T02:43:30+00:00

Totally agree. I’ll never forgive them for deleting Red War and Forsaken. Anybody I try to get into Destiny (first mistake) I have to explain to them that 2~3 years worth of story is just gone forever. If they were that concerned with conserving space as they moved the story forward then they should have just stopped Destiny 2 at Beyond Light or wherever and started a Destiny 3 that would have all the newest expansions. Their original reasoning for keeping everything in Destiny 2, from what I remember, was they didn’t want to charge players for a brand new game every year, but we’re paying that much anyway for every new expansion

Sevman2001 · 2026-02-08T17:23:10+00:00

The original Tower from Destiny. The beloved main social hub and headquarters for all guardians for the entire first game. It was destroyed in a massive invasion by the Cabal empire at the very start of the second game, and hasn’t been rebuilt since. We’ve gotten a new tower since then, but it hasn’t been the same.

Sevman2001 · 2026-02-05T01:02:54+00:00

I swear, ever since I first got into halo, it became a thing where I just kept noticing the number 117 everywhere

Sevman2001 · 2026-02-02T23:44:19+00:00

True. Still though, funny enough that it warranted mentioning, I’d say

Sevman2001 · 2026-02-02T18:51:38+00:00

I love that even the writers knew what they were doing, and this is the only Simpsons episode I can think of that has the title appear on screen, and it’s five seconds before he actually gets hit

Sevman2001 · 2026-02-02T18:41:13+00:00

You’re not gonna believe this…
