they not preserve themselves? They said in Halo Legends that they made, "the ultimate sacrifice, wiping themselves completely out" WHY THOUGH, they had the technology to survive their own weapon why not use it? Were they retarded?

Yes. They were the most retarded beings in all existence. I always wondered this same thing.

They were noble and felt they shouldn't live when they failed to save an entire galaxy; though a small amount of them did live and moved elsewhere

"I may not be perfect, but always been true."

They didnt need to. They built shield worlds; and I think the forerunners that got preserved are on the legendary planet.

By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.

The Forerunners did not die. Origins is from the POV of Cortana and she doesn't know that they simply left the Orion Arm.

Please, at least learn some of the lore before saying stupid things.

If you're passionate about the thing you're talking about, I'll always lend an ear.

Because this is science fiction. Nothing in this universe is fully concrete.

Better to be mad rather than stupid.

Well I guess cortana didn't read the halo books either not my fault, and 343 said halo legends was canon so.

You were totally and absolutely correct in every way, I don't know why we were arguing, you're so amazing I should never have doubted you.

This. Also, don't forget that we still have much to learn about the Forerunners, with 3 games and 2 books coming out that will give insight on them.

It's "canon", but you basically have to dismiss the majority of the things it says as artistic license and stick to vague, general facts, like the existence of a prototype weapons system on Algolis. Is it a Gundam mecha in the actual lore? No, that was artistic license. But there was a prototype there.

Also I'm still pretty confused about why the Covenant don't speak their own language
