[[Yonhet|This new species]] kind of irks me. It's obvious that it was created for the sake of cutting down on the CGI budget. I really don't like the idea of a humanoid alien species in Halo other than the Forerunners. These guys seem like something you would see in Star Wars, Star Trek, or Mass Effect. Halo's aliens have always been completely non-humanoid. There's also the fact that it kinda spits in the face of the significance of why humans and Forerunners look similar. Now there's a third species in the picture?-- | [[Yonhet|This new species]] kind of irks me. It's obvious that it was created for the sake of cutting down on the CGI budget.

:Yep, that's pretty much exactly how I feel about them too.

::Yeah... Though I'm not against the idea of introducing new fringe species, the Yonhet were really lazily designed. Even with makeup and prosthetics they could've worked harder to make him look more alien. Add bulk in some places and some extra appendages, and alter the hands. Maybe they'll be explained as having been genetically engineered by the Forerunners (or ancient humans) for some reason, or they'll just get reworked into something less like a cheap ''Star Trek'' alien if we see them in a game where the CGI budget isn't an issue. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 03:27, 13 November 2014 (EST) | ::Yeah...

:::Yeah, I hoped they might expand on a connection with Forerunners or ancient humans. Maybe a Forerunner splinter species that got marooned on this moon and forgotten? Idk. It seems like they'll be a non-combatant species in the games, if they'll even be in the games. It seems to me that they might stay in Halo: Nightfall and that's it. 343 could possibly be including a plethora of minor Covenant Fringe species at various points in the franchise for whatever purpose, and the Yonhet just represent something that was created uniquely for Nightfall and will soon be overshadowed by the coming wave of many other diverse alien species yet to be revealed.-- | :::Yeah, I hoped they might expand on a connection with Forerunners or ancient humans.

The [[Sharquoi]] might end up being part of this "Covenant fringe"... "''I''" hadn't seen it coming, but now I'm thinking that the whole fringe idea may not be that bad. It could have been there all the time, actually.
