Was a pleasure to be there, thanks a bunch for the invite!
u/GrimBrotherOne lore question, can Spartans blow their nose without removing their helmet? 🤔
All I can say is that Kelly's runs the fastest.
I honestly really enjoyed this. It reminded me a lot of a smaller-scale Red Storm Rising. It also had some nice parallels of the commander's relationships with their superiors (John with Cole and the Fleetmaster with the Prophets).
It was a bit tech heavy, and the Castoffs were a bit too annoying at points, but it was a very solid book.
Glad you liked it!
Why?
Why not?
Nice!
I just finished watching the Panel Video for Chicago. I was slated to go to the event and then I had to travel across the country unexpectedly, and I wish I could have seen it live.
For those of you curious, it is DEFINITELY worth a watch! Seeing all those creators together was immensely interesting, but even getting a peak behind the curtain about the collaboration efforts was awesome. What I found most surprising is the apparent freedom that creators have, especially considering the subject matter in Greg Bear's Forerunner trilogy.
I guess I always assumed that 343 would say "Here are your story beats, this is what needs to happen, write within constraints." After hearing these authors speak it sounds like the opposite, the creators will tell 343 what their plan is and if there is a conflict within the lore or something doesn't align, they can veto it.
Anyway I can go on and on but those panels were such a cool look into the creative process and are worth the watch for sure!
Thanks so much for checking them out! And to your point, it's definitely a mix and match of some scenarios that require tighter parameters and many others where we get to work hand in hand with fellow creatives and benefit from the imagination and skills that each individual brings to the universe. :-)
I imagine they co-exist, based on previous decisions 343 has made on how things look.
We currently see them as co-existing.
He has always been fond of Mjolnir...
Oh man I remember this!
Um, this is awesome.
This is awesome!
Denning is so good. Looking forward to folks digging in to Oblivion soon!
Haven’t read it yet but I dig the title lol.

The panel was great man, thank you!
Thank you for being there!
What's amazing is that I gave you the best moment of gamescom all the way from Outpost Discovery in Houston... ;-)
