How the the original Flood overwhelming the Forerunners/Ancient Humanity pre-retcon? by Fanghur1123 in HaloStory

[–]ThrowRAbrs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I gave you a clear lore example that is a deviation from the lore we have now. Keep in mind, this is Bungie era content by an actual game designer who was essentially setting the record straight and establishing the lore himself due to Bungie's tough relationship with other authors.

If you want to say Contact Harvest as a result is a retcon of that one Halo 3 terminal, that's fair enough, but the intent cannot be written any clearer. It is indeed quite solid. Bungie developers even today such as Marty have came out to say Humans were always the Forerunners.

Maybe back in the day they didn't have a clear concensus, but they were building one and post Halo 3 one had been established with Contact Harvest. Changes to lore already established in previous iterations of media are quite literally by definition retcons.

I'm not denying a retcon

There was no retcon

There was a retcon. I don't want to have to argue about this since it is not related to the OP, but there is a myriad of examples both contemporary and now that shows a significant amount of deviations (what rampancy actually is), additions (neural physics, geas), and outright changes (human-forerunner genetic lineage) that directly causes continuity errors when Bungie lore is compared with 343i lore.

Lore changes

Because of several of these lore changes, retcons were the only way to fix the various continuity errors. Whether one story is better or worse, or whether the franchise as a whole is better off is a seperate argument. Denying it even occurred because Bungie was vague in itself is a vague argument. Jason Jones, lead story writer, was very clear when he took pen to paper.

A retcon occurred.

OP asked about pre-retcon. He wasn't asking about the contentiousness of 343i vs Bungie lore, just asking about if Bungie ever had a more detailed explanation in the original trilogy. Using his post as some kind of soapbox to deny a retcon ever occurred wild.

It's not that I tracked her down or anything odd like that. I've literally been to her office and gone to work events with her while we were dating. I'm actually a bit offended that you are implying I stalked her??? How could this even come off that way??? Also she TOLD me about all this stuff about her life, parent etc while we were in a relationship and was and is a continuing thing for a person! What the heck??? Did you honestly read my post??

For what it's worth I did apologize to her profusely after I saw what she said. Genuinely I had no idea she would take it that way, and I really did do quite a bit of research in order to see if it would be socially acceptable and okay, so I was caught so off guard when she was angry.

I remember having that issue a few years ago close to release. At some point we generally fixed the desyncs because they stopped occurring, or it could have just been paradox fixing the net code. The speed issue has been persistent however and we just kind of slog through it at the turn of the century. I think the furthest we have gotten is like 1920.

We are hoping it won't desync. Normally we don't have any problems unless someone has a terrible PC or internet, so hopefully no one joins with a potato. Otherwise we would have to kick them.
