I agree. I love the games but haven’t followed the lore too closely. I played the fuck out of Reach. The show was alright and I do go back to watch it sometimes.

My biggest gripe was that whole weird sex thing with that lady raised by aliens. Just so fucking weird

I didn't know they made a show about The Sacred Band of Thebes. Actually that would be an interesting show especially if they centered it around the war between Sparta and Thebes.
Oh the tumblr show, got it. Not making fun of the show just a strong association while from back when I was interacting with the New Vegas fandom circa 2014.
All my light fixtures have 2 lights. I always use blue and red because they he tri color shadows look so cool. I’ve been doing this before I discovered I was bi.
There are different kinds of colour blindness, aren't there? So you'd have to do one for each? And then there may be people who see MORE colours (cf tetrachromacy), they'd want their own too! Where does it end?! 😱
"Well boys, the atmosphere is trans, we're breathing in the soystrogen right now... corrupting our precious bodily fluids... gonna be the last straight sunrise we ever experience... they gay bombed us, we've only got minutes untill we begin growing tits and ravenously fucking each other to death."
... I feel like something approximating that either already is or could be a red vs blue skit.
sigh these guys really just need to suck a cock and get it out of their systems.
Incomprehensible to me how stupid you would have to be to be able to shit out such a malformed and worthless thought for the sake of getting upset at something completely imaginary.
Before, satire was easy. You could just make a message internally inconsistent and people would eventually realize "this can't be a real person's avowed opinion, because it doesn't make any fucking sense."
And then Death took on subcontractors to expand its market to communication.
Master chief has always been trans, that is to say transhuman. Also I'm pretty sure the dudes ace and is romantically involved with Cortana in some way my autistic ass can't quite comprehend.
Theu are adding three new missions in this new game, in the last one Master Chief os coming out as a trans. Mistress Chief will be the protagonist in the new remakes in the future.
I get the joke, but I'm getting tired of people behaving as though all these people just so happen to also be queer because "haha they don't want to be called gay and insecure." Like, gay men are the most likely group within the queer community to turn traitor because of their socioeconomic privilege, but it perpetuates this idea that queer people are only ever threatened by each other and not a system that functions to eradicate them.
This is important, though I also want to emphasize that my comment is meant to draw attention to the fact that even if they are secretly gay, their ability to benefit from betraying the rest of the community is only possible because of their position in the racialized and heteronormative hierarchies of imperialism and settler-colonialism. To focus on the moral failure of individuals like that is to ignore the systemic conditions that both enable that failure as well as our shared persecution. Queer liberation requires the dismantlement of these institutions, which means we must be critical of how position effects the choices that individuals make.
This article is good to point out that many homophobic and misogynistic social norms are reproduced through this self-hating narrative, and that is also something that every queer person should be noticing in liberals at the moment. Since more overt fascists have shown up, it has become more acceptable among liberals to rely on notions of white masculinity, ability, and strength to demean those that they view as morally impure (especially so since their bigotry is not the primary cause for liberals' disdain of these groups of people). Liberals use jokes like this not just because of their ignorance of the latent queerphobia within them, but because they view them as opportunities to express that bigotry with impunity when a more "deserving" target of that ridicule has been presented to them.
No, you don't understand! Imagine you want to show your buddies a game and the first thing they see is this BLATANT display of the gay! They'll have no choice but to conclude it's a gay game and you too must be gay! The horror!
I can imagine the conversation with the bro he's trying to impress, who's totally straight, too. Something along the lines of "Bro, a rainbow? That's so fucking gay, bro! Like, two hunky dudes kissing each other in the mouth gay, bro! That shit only girls like, bro! It's girly, bro! That's why I only hang out with real male bros, bro, even during sex!"
it's his job. He has an entire channel where he gets mad at anything "woke/leftists/progressive" inside the games industry. Also he worked in the games industry, he must have done some shit while he was in the industry and got fired and blacklisted. Why else would he dedicate his life to attacking the industry.
You'd be amazed at the amount of back patting idiots will do to their crowds. That kind of validation might be the only these dudes ever get in their lives
Kinda sorta. It's a remake of the campaign in UE5 supposedly with co-op but no other multiplayer. So if you want some Blood Gulch action, still gotta play CE.
I have this record cabinet with an led strip in one of the sections, and I tend to keep it on the magenta. I had no idea I was bisexual until this moment. Send penises.
Because its all the media tell them to concentrate on as the biggest threat to their existence (other than if your skin is the wrong colour). The major UK newspapers published on average 9 articles every single day on the topic of trans people. Thats 17,000 articles in 5 years. And people seem to lack the critical thinking to see this and see it for what it is.
World hunger, poverty, diseases, racism, sexism, billionaires, corruption. There are so many things to complain about but naaahhhh.... a rainbow in a game is a bigger problem to shout at.
World hunger, poverty, diseases, racism, sexism, billionaires, corruption. There are so many things to complain about but naaahhhh.... an anonymous Twitter account is posting bullshit and I need to tell everyone about that
This is as bad as the numerology people. Actually, scratch that, at least those loonies only hurt themselves. This transphobic bullshit in every tiny shade of color is stupid as fuck, and dangerous. It should never be tolerated.
She's undergone extensive physical and mental augmentations. That's classically the definition of a cyborg. But it's a fictional process happening to a fictional character in a SciFi setting, so...
I've been secretly sneaking trans propaganda into my work for years. I started with a book report in the second grade and have been steadily ramping up the output ever since. You will be trans and you'll fucking like it. Sorry. I have to. It's part of my super secret assault on the family.
Master Chief is intentionally never shown without his pants because he's transmasc w/o and marketing hides it to preserve sales.
Don't fall for it. Demand video game developers start proving their masculine heroes are cis men.
slams desk get me pictures of Master Chiefs dick
I mean, there was the horrible show. (Censored because I don't want to deal with the spoiler command thing)
Master cheek
Reporting for booty
Thats just ass. If they dont show full frontal cock swinging dickery, its clear they are just part of the trans agenda.
There was the ass show*
What was so horrible about the show? I thought it was fine…
I’m also not big into halo lore, though
I agree. I love the games but haven’t followed the lore too closely. I played the fuck out of Reach. The show was alright and I do go back to watch it sometimes.

"Bisexual lighting" is a phrase I never thought I'd read.
It even has its own Wikipedia article!
The example image is just Chef's kiss
Doot
Seems like every neon cyberpunk lighting, ever
Damn, that's basically everything in the '80s
Yeah, I very much feel like most uses of that lighting have no idea that it's the bi flag colors and rather just think it looks cool.
It’s uswd heavily in the club scenes in Scarface.
Then there was Miami Vice. '80s Miami must have been the most bisexual place ever.
Next up: vagina bones.
Glayre flare
It is all over certain TV shows featuring very manly men doing manly things with their brotherly bros. 🪽
I didn't know they made a show about The Sacred Band of Thebes. Actually that would be an interesting show especially if they centered it around the war between Sparta and Thebes.
The one I'm thinking of does certainly involve a profound bond.
I legit don't get the reference because the last TV show I watched was Hellsing Ultimate and I have no clue what's going on outside of Nazi vampires.
lel it's Supernatural, don't worry, it's an acquired taste :)
Oh the tumblr show, got it. Not making fun of the show just a strong association while from back when I was interacting with the New Vegas fandom circa 2014.
I just laughed out loud at half past 3 in the morning in my silent flat because yep "the tumblr show".
All my light fixtures have 2 lights. I always use blue and red because they he tri color shadows look so cool. I’ve been doing this before I discovered I was bi.
Also it helps you see in 3D.
It's one of my smart light profiles. 💁🏿♀️
This just in!
The sky is gay!
That’s right folks, the sky is now gay!
It's all the frogs, they did it. That's what all the jumping was about.
This must be why the franchise removed all the purple from their art direction.
All those colours are in the pride flag, therefore anything that's not black and white is woke gay propaganda /s
Pretty sure a lot of them would prefer white only.
nope, those are gay AF too!
Wait.
Is there a pride flag that has been specifically designed to work for the colorblind?
There are different kinds of colour blindness, aren't there? So you'd have to do one for each? And then there may be people who see MORE colours (cf tetrachromacy), they'd want their own too! Where does it end?! 😱
Mantis shrimp pride flag when?
If they haven't, they should, which should use all those male/female/trans symbols in all sorts of combinations
Anybody old enough to have used paint programs on monochrome monitors where instead of colors the palette was patterns like this?
Return of the Obra Dinn, IIRC, is fully monochrome, and all shading is done with dithering. It's really impressive how well they made it work.
I've seen varied dithering patterns in some olde games, but those were already in color
🇳🇵
It's too late anyway, he's looked at it, now the craving for peens will devour him from the inside!
I think that ship had already sailed with this dude
"Well boys, the atmosphere is trans, we're breathing in the soystrogen right now... corrupting our precious bodily fluids... gonna be the last straight sunrise we ever experience... they gay bombed us, we've only got minutes untill we begin growing tits and ravenously fucking each other to death."

I can think of worse ways to go.

The internet sucks.
What in the bi erasure is this idiocy?
It’s like this dude forgot that Purple is like, the Covenant’s primary color.
Pffft gay ass Covenant
Bi erasure? This is bi manufacture.
Checked the account thinking it was maybe satire, but nope - just a vile ragebaiter. People can seriously suck.
Before, satire was easy. You could just make a message internally inconsistent and people would eventually realize "this can't be a real person's avowed opinion, because it doesn't make any fucking sense."
And then Death took on subcontractors to expand its market to communication.
Cue the idiots: i.e., influencers.
Ragebaiting is good for engagement and shareholder value. Or are you some kind of communist tankie that is against folk making an honest living???
As a communist tankie, nobody should be living, for I am a monster hell-bent only on the destruction of Western civilization.I love American.It was so utterly ridiculous and straw grasping that I was convinced initially it had to be satire.
Reality really is disappointing.
Master chief has always been trans, that is to say transhuman. Also I'm pretty sure the dudes ace and is romantically involved with Cortana in some way my autistic ass can't quite comprehend.
Actually, I think he's involved with Cortana in a very autistic ass way.
It's a case of "I like you, we get along well. Wanna hang out all the time?"
I think canonically spartans are auto-wanked by their suit. But yea Chief and Cortana are definitely ND pals
However Master Chef feels about Cortana, I believe she's got the maturity and respect to keep it professional.
Master Chief, wake up! They rainbowed fucking Reach Master Chief
Theu are adding three new missions in this new game, in the last one Master Chief os coming out as a trans. Mistress Chief will be the protagonist in the new remakes in the future.
Waiting for the cutscene where Captain Keys deadnames MC before handing over the pistol then gets his skull caved in
This guy is definitely gay, and TERRIFIED of anyone finding out.

100% agree with you. Straight people can hate gay people because they are assholes, not because they are secretly gay.
Here is an article you might want to read. I keep it on my Mastodon account to grab real quick.

quick, comply !!
Tell me you are in the closet without telling me you are in the closet.
Is this not just God keeping his promise not to Flood the earth again? Who's the heretic now?
So much trans on the "truth and reconciliation" level
well.... all the while Cortana and Chief are following Keyes' transponder after all
It's only gaslighting if you're actually not crazy.
Sparkling conspiracy
This dude should touch grass.
I can't imagine searching this hard for stupid shit to be angry.
Touching grass might involve seeing a sunrise though, and that apparently might make him trans, therfore, touching grass is gay.
If he goes outside after a rain he might see
a rainbowthe sky getting too PoLiTiCaL with forced diversity and start shooting in the air.Hell just the other day the sky looked like the lesbian flag!
it's his job. He has an entire channel where he gets mad at anything "woke/leftists/progressive" inside the games industry. Also he worked in the games industry, he must have done some shit while he was in the industry and got fired and blacklisted. Why else would he dedicate his life to attacking the industry.
You'd be amazed at the amount of back patting idiots will do to their crowds. That kind of validation might be the only these dudes ever get in their lives
Man this SmashJT chud is so fucking pathetic. He makes so much rage bait yet only gets 10k views per video.
Oh! They're re-releasing CE!
...didn't they do that already?
Kinda sorta. It's a remake of the campaign in UE5 supposedly with co-op but no other multiplayer. So if you want some Blood Gulch action, still gotta play CE.
This is a full remake whereas the last one was basically a re-skin. That’s why you could swap graphics on the fly.
I have this record cabinet with an led strip in one of the sections, and I tend to keep it on the magenta. I had no idea I was bisexual until this moment. Send penises.
I thought the person was stoked about it being a secret trans thing. Why do these people spend so much energy thinking about trans folks?
Because its all the media tell them to concentrate on as the biggest threat to their existence (other than if your skin is the wrong colour). The major UK newspapers published on average 9 articles every single day on the topic of trans people. Thats 17,000 articles in 5 years. And people seem to lack the critical thinking to see this and see it for what it is.
Probably having gay thoughts and desperately trying to find some external reason for it.
World hunger, poverty, diseases, racism, sexism, billionaires, corruption. There are so many things to complain about but naaahhhh.... a rainbow in a game is a bigger problem to shout at.

Almost literally "Old man yells at cloud."
Damn the Norse for their gay Bifröst bridge!
Can't anyone think of the children (watching Marvel, probably)?
I mean have you seen Thor?
Can't believe they changed my favorite cyborg's gender.
Was he a cyborg? I just remember him being genetically engineered, but it's been a long time since I played Halo, so I could have forgotten.
She's undergone extensive physical and mental augmentations. That's classically the definition of a cyborg. But it's a fictional process happening to a fictional character in a SciFi setting, so...

If only.
Just get it over with buddy, life is so much easier that way.
How else were they going to get PS5 owners to play it?
Nobody is that fragile are they?
SEXUAL LIGHTING
Dude, get a hobby.
Unfortunately I think this is his hobby
Nobody tell him.
I wanna see if we can make him stroke out.
I don't even see the first one.
In the original thread someone zoomed in for a comment. You basically can’t see it on the OP.
