And Cutter looks younger than he did before ? So upset and disappointed in the controls as well. The Professor, who had a clear Asian ancestry is now a white woman in this game. So I guess 343 did try to find the original cast, except complete switched it up on us and hoped nobody would care. Then I discovered they used the same voice actor for the Cutter as they did for Jermone in HW1. The game is very distracting because the whole time Captain Cutter is suppose to be the one talking to you and giving you orders but I kept getting lost thinking it was Spartan Jermone. But I have to ask 343 why they decided to completely change the look, sound, personalities of the main characters ? Were the original voice actors unavailable? Did they even try? Doesn't seem like it.
The cut screens were very nicely done and didn't just 'drop off' or end awkwardly like they did in Halo 5, they actually told a story with is nice. For what I played it for, which was for the story, I enjoyed it. However everything I loved about Halo Wars the fine folks at 343 once took a dump on it. I love the Halo universe and looked forward to finally being shown the fate of the crew of the Spirit of Fire. I'm attempting to give the most unbiased review that my soul will allow to to write.
