'''Sith Venator''': I would have liked it if [[Tovarus]] and [[Hyperius]] had been characters in this book as well. As of right now most of their characterization comes from the [[2022]] ''[[Halo Encyclopedia (2022 edition)|Halo Encyclopedia]]''. Hyperius has killed over a dozen Spartans! Would have liked to see some of that. Better yet, I would have liked to see the brothers’ relationship fleshed out a bit. If the player kills Tovarus first in ''[[Pelican Down (Halo Infinite level)|Pelican Down]]'' Hyperius will respond enraged. If the player kills Hyperius first Tovarus will call his dead brother a coward and that he deserved death. They clearly did not have a wholesome relationship like [[Pavium]] and [[Voridus]] do. | '''Sith Venator''': I would have liked it if [[Tovarus]] and [[Hyperius]] had been characters in this book as well.

'''TheArb1ter117''': ''Halo'' novels generally consist of multiple intertwined plotlines, and that is the case with ''Halo: The Rubicon Protocol''. However, like Jack said above, I really wish there was a dedicated Banished plotline.

However, like Jack said above, I really wish there was a dedicated Banished plotline. While we do get sections like the Gorian and Spartan Horvath adventure and The [[Harbinger]]’s discussions with [[Lucas Browning]], all of it is told from the perspective of the human characters. Going into ''The Rubicon Protocol'', I was expecting a Jega 'Rdomnai plotline following his hunt of the Spartans and detailing the deaths of each of the dead Spartans we encounter in ''Halo Infinite'' (including those killed by Hyperius and Tovarus, who are still in dire need of development). | ||
Additionally, I kind of wish the main story had advanced past the point of John-117’s return in late [[2560#May|May 2560]], with some hints and references to the Master Chief’s efforts to retake the ring. Maybe the boat crew hears some broken transmissions that imply the Master Chief’s raid on the [[Tower]] or the recapture of the ''Mortal Reverie'', ending the story with them filled with the hope that things might turn out okay. | Additionally, I kind of wish the main story had advanced past the point of John-117’s return in late [[2560#May|May 2560]], with some hints and references to the Master Chief’s efforts to retake the ring.
