Celebrating 25 Years of Halo

<p>Twenty-five years ago, Halo: Combat Evolved introduced the world to the Master Chief, Cortana, and the Covenant menace in a legendary fir

Yeesh, 25 years?? It's also been about a year since I posted a Waypoint comic page (I have been working on another comic though. It's not Halo (boo!), but I personally I think its a considerably better comic so far (yay!). 2025 Ended up being a very strange, surprisingly Halo themed year for me. I discovered a podcast by Jumperscape called The Library, where three friends get together and nerd out about Halo lore. This was at the beginning of 2025 and it just re-kindled my love for Halo harder than a beam rifle to a blue Air Assault helmet (sorry). I have a pretty busy lifestyle these days, but I still manage to get a few rounds in on Halo before work and before the rest of the house wakes up. Honestly, silly as it might sound, it's been great for my mental health. I even had a Halo 3 LAN party for my 35th Birthday like a big boy!

I'm beyond stoked for the Halo CE remake this year. Who knew all the jokes about Halo on Playstation back in the 2000s would predict the future! Hope you all thrived or at least survived 2025. Thank you for supporting my silly little stories and projects! ~ Drunksylvari

This was inspired by an interview with a composer in Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi's book, Flow: The Psychology of Optimal Experience. I have not read this book, but spotted it in this article which spurred the idea for this page of Waypoint. Hope my fellow Neurodivergents enjoy it!

Story time!

Back in the Xbox 360 days, McFarlane released a collection of 8 Halo themed Xbox 360 avatar figures. Either I missed out on them at the time, or they were hard to get outside the US. Either way, I am now a grown up and I want one. After managing to find one on ebay from a UK Seller, I ordered it and eagerly awaited my very grown up parcel. Royal Mail notified me it had been delivered to my storage box. However, the photo they provided as proof only filled me with dread, given that it was not my storage box. I ventured up and down my road, desperately trying to figure out where it could've got to. I knocked on neighbours doors and did my best not to look too shifty as I hovered in peoples gardens whilst looking confused at my phone. Exasperated, I zoomed in on the low quality photo from Royal mail and noticed the house number on the address label was off by 10 blocks. I went to the house to be greeted by a doorbell-camera. The chap who lived there said he had my parcel but was out at work and would deliver it to me that evening. Finally! I thought. I'll get my parcel this evening. When the neighbour popped round, he apologised profusely as he had opened my parcel. He had seen it was his address and didn't even notice the name. Continuing to apologise, he showed how he had taped the parcel up again for me. I kept reassuring him it wasn't a big deal- I was just happy to finally get it! Horror dawned on me once more as the parcel felt very non-small figure shaped. I opened the parcel to be met with three self help books. No wonder the neighbour looked so sorry for me. Apparently I was trying to lose weight, find God AND declutter my life! Were it so easy… After some back and forthing with the eBay seller, we worked out that two address labels must've been accidently switched with someone else's at the post office. Thankfully, the seller had a spare figure and just sent it to me. Again.

Anyway, I am now the proud owner of this little dude in golden Elite armour. Pretty sick! I'm currently going through MCC with my younger brother. Maybe i'll treat myself to one every time we finish a campaign- Or each time I do x amount of comic pages? The part I find the most hilarious about this story is that some poor person somewhere in the world was awaiting three books to try and change their life for the better and instead, has probably received a tiny Spartan. I hope it brings them more joy and peace than the books would have.
