Maybe this is me missing information, but I genuinely don't get how Atriox survived the explosion on Zeta Halo. Wasn't Cortana blowing it explicitly to destroy him and damage the Banished? She died but he survived, but weren't they in the same room? Was he teleported out by something? A monitor? The Harbinger?

I just don't understand why there was so much set up for Cortana's shift back towards Humanity in her last moments, and then it gets undermined by having the main person she was trying to kill survive. Her change-of-heart still matters, but why didn't it have the impact it was meant to? Why did she die if he didn't? I don't get it.

I need to look over Atriox with a jeweler's loupe and think about him.

This will take a long time because he's large.

What was it like figuring out Atriox was still alive?

Wasn't optimistic enough to assume he'd died.

Still disappointing.

Watching the Halo Wars 2 cutscenes for the first time and it's beautiful but maaaan is it cheesy 😂
