>>10130937The guardians STILL scare the hell out of me (haven't played Halo in years, but I'm sure that I'd still freak out).
It was more or less okay to be killed by them when playing with friends online, like when screwing around on sandbox or foundry, but the worst was when I'd be forging by myself and they'd kill me. Most of the time, it was expected (stepping out of the map, etc.), but when you're forging and die for no reason...
FUCK NO.
They're mysterious, they're creepy..they sure as hell scared the shit out of me...
I've also had times where I'd be playing offline (internet turned off at 10 to discourage me from playing games late at night when I was a teen, didn't stop me) and forge pieces would just spawn out of nowhere, they just... appeared.
One time, I was forging on sandbox (canvas), and as I was trying to place a block into place correctly, I noticed the money bar rapidly running out. It was weird, because I wasn't placing anything at all, especially not that fast. I looked out to the guardian protected black area and saw a golf ball out there, so I decided to go check it out.
It was just...there. I didn't place it, no one did. No one could have even joined my game. Then I realized, how was I still alive? Walls and blocks were placed -perfectly- in front of the guardian towers. Like, down to the exact angle. Then I started hearing explosions (I hadn't placed anything that could explode, not even vehicles) and noped the fuck out of that game.
I've also been "haunted" by the ghost of Halo, on Blackout. It was creepy as fuck, so I tried inviting my friend to my game to see it. He accepted it, then his console froze up, and he had to restart.
