It seems to me that although the story of halo is basically a struggle for humanities survival, the forerunners are actually the gel that holds the story together. So a simple question for you all, Do you want to see what they look like? is it important to see them? Or would it be better to keep them shrouded in mystery, as a long dead race.

Your thoughts please,

what do you think they look like (maybe i'll make a thread about that)

If you don't got it, you want it. If you got it, you want more of it. Of course if you don't know what it is, it's hard to get any in the first place.

I think it would be a bad idea to show what they look like. Everyone has their own interpretation of them, and it would just be a bad idea. Kinda like showing the MC's face.

I dont think its important to see them, I am curious to know what they look like though. The books and games give a few clues but nothing iron clad. Perhaps we might stumble across a forerunner musoleum with effigies carved into stone.

It would be cool to fight them mabye in the last few levels. I would expect them to be insanely advanced and difficult to kill.

What exactly do you mean by "All there structures seem to be on to larger scale"?

You think it got what it takes to be..?.


God forbid you send me one of those I was checking for cool gamers and saw you messages too, I will scream to the top of my lungs and smash this damn screen/BlackBerry to pieces! You've been warned -_-

No, showing the forerunners will spoil all of the Halo series and spoil Halo 3. They should keep it as a mystery.

We will probably find out if they are related to the humans, covenant, or whatever, but I doubt we will see them.

I think the story should reveal who they truly are (are they Humans as some evidence states) but it should'nt show them. Well i guess if they were humans then there is no mystery. But either way they shouldn't be shown.

well all the structures are very large, and the passages are quite high. To me it seems that if the forerunners were humans why would they build things with such huge access corridors?

Halo's a hell of a drug.

who wouldn't want to see them? what's wrong with these people.

Id just like the barely see them. You know those type of scenes where you see the big plot line alien, but there is a really right light behind them so you can only see the outline? Thats how I want to see them.

Just so we know they are not gone forever, but choose only to be seen by those worthy enough.

  • 06.26.2006 4:08 PM PDT

Well i dont think they are god like at all. They must have been advanced but not devine.
