Arbiter = corny

When I first saw Arbiter, trust me I didn’t like him. In fact, I said this 26 days ago.

On the base ideal that KI is a trope, I am not surprised. To have seen the “final” guest character wasted on Halo is appalling. I really don’t mean to come off so spiteful in my opinion, but I cannot help but be so disappointed in this decision. Halo… we knew they had Halo 5, we knew how big the eSports scene was in Halo and how integrated Killer Instinct was with Microsoft. But, it just feels like such a cashout by leaning on Halo for additional promotion and crossover.

After watching the trailer and seeing how he plays, I said this…

I am still not a fan of Halo so I can’t say that I’m eagerly awaiting the release of Arbiter. Nonetheless, I will say that he does looks great in KI, a lot different than I had imagined honestly. So much so that I can actually see myself having a blast with him. Great job guys!

I will never be as big a fan as some of the forum members, nor do I care to consider myself anything close to a fan. I grew up on Gears of War, Halo seemed to futuristic and childish compared. But, that is just me. Still, I genuinely don’t mind him being in KI anymore. You cannot say he is a bad fit, ESPECIALLY since Rash is the first guest and he is a giant toad talking butt kicker.

So take it from me, someone who actually IS NOT a fan of Halo. He fits well and he will be fun. I don’t doubt seeing myself enjoying a part of Halo that is KI, which is great because in some way, I became somewhat of a fan - even when I never intended to.
