Absolutely love the choice of soundtrack halo wars 1 was so underrated

The Arbiter seems to have this aura screaming "you may fear Spartans. I don't instill fear, for nobody is alive to fear me rightfully."

[nightstars]

Ohhhh!!!! That was an awesome video and the intro... I really really feel like an ONI officer was telling the story

[FilmCritictheone]

Being so informed about halos lore and story, I'd be interested how you would have progressed the story after the Bungie era.

[Rock-cecz]

Maybe a good what if could be “What if the Arbiter stayed at installation 04”. Also amazing video, keep it up!

[xander.]

The narrator made a fair number of canonical errors and i still enjoyed listening to him. That's the mark of an entertaining speaker. Well done.

[lizardon]

It didn’t look like the spartan 2 was overpowering Thel to me. Looked the other way around or that they were equally matched.

[nappa]

Just found your little channel and I like it. What ifs on Halo is something I wish people did.

[Dreez]

Great vid, i've always been interested in Halo lore, despite not playing the games.

[shom]

loved it! thank you for making this video

THIS needs to be the next Halo game. Arbiter needs his own solo game handled with the same care the first 5 Halo games(CE, 2, 3, Reach, ODST). Whatever it takes to get the old Bungie band together....let's do it...343 and Microsoft need not interfere.

My favorite Arbiter will alays be Ripa Moramee, he was such a bad*ss it was insane. he was massive and duel wielded custom giant energy swords. His death was a crime, he got the general grievous nerf. Otherwise, Ripa Moramee would have crushed forge in 2 seconds frankly it was unbeleivable.

[AAP]

How come no one ever talks about the fact that the Arbiter used to do track & field in high school?

[Wildnmemes]

We are about 400 years in the past during the time halo took place.

[danyh.]

What if Doom Slayer meets Blue team in Halo 5 Guardians?

[DarthTextingStories]

what if master chief went back in time to just before doc Halsey started haveing the spartan ii's start their training

[mirapagan]

What about Vadamee's wife her assassination put him on his path

[ethan]

Hay reclaimer game when you go to the life streaming for halo infinite? And also keep doing what you do.

I feel like the arbiter, and other elites would like Japan, and especially as history. Due to the fact in our universe, the writers made the elites similar to Japanese soldiers.

If people want to read about Thel, you can just read the cold protocol it also talks about grey team which is awesome
