MLG, a few others and I talked about this. We came to the conclusion that a long cutscene at the beginning of the game, explaining and introducing.
Sorry, I really don't think twisting, bending and otherwise forcing the story to fit a spartans reunited scenario is worth it, especially when it only serves the purpose of quenching fanboy thirst. I agree with you, because I don't want any other Spartans, I think it is a terrible idea. No where did I say I wanted or thought there would be more Spartans. Owned.
Stating 'owned' at the end of your posts is a quick way to acknowledge that any reader would struggle to perceive any 'owning' going on at all.
I state again; it is not worth forcing the story to fit a scenario where spartans could return, such a move would only serve the purpose of satisfying a fan's desire to see them. Nowhere did I mention you or what you want, you clown. It was a direct reply to your post about explaining it with a long cutscene.
Here is where I would have typed 'owned' at the end of my post, if I was a complete numpty. I don't ever say "owned," for I pride myself in having proper grammar. It was a completely rare occurrence and as such it should have been considered a joke. I hope you aren't offended, but apparently you were and decided to take a somewhat hostile stance for a reply; I hope that I am hardly considered a "Clown."
I don't want any Spartans or think there will be. I only agreed with the insane [that think there will be more Spartans, or rather, insist there will be more of them] that a good way to introduce more of them (Spartans) would be a long cut scene (but not like Final Fantasy [I deeply dislike Final Fantasy] ) explaining, for lack of a more blunt phrase, "what's what."
"I state again; it is not worth forcing the story to fit a scenario where Spartans could return...." I agree with the aforementioned in a literal manner, however, you including unnecessary sarcasm and satire forces me to somewhat lower my general opinion about the above quote.
"...such a move would only serve the purpose of satisfying a fan's desire to see them." This is your opinion only, but you stated it matter-of-factly, so be prepared. Bungie might have a completely different reason for the inclusion of more Spartans, I am NOT saying I agree with it, but you cannot say "...would only serve the purpose," because it is your opinion only, but you stated it as a supposed "fact," so it required me to address it.
"Nowhere did I mention you or what you want, you clown." This was unnecessary, I cannot understand why you felt you needed to call me a "Clown." But you are correct, you did not imply that it was what I wanted.
"Here is where I would have typed 'owned' at the end of my post, if I was a complete numpty." Really? Irrelevant, but still insulting. Wether or not you implied that I was a "Numpty," is also irrelevant, as that is how I took it, and will likely not change. Why do you feel you need to insult me? Did I offend you? If I did, I apologize but that still doesn't change the fact that you decided to include a derogatory comment in your post numerous times.
