Even by Halo 3 they were no joke.<\/p>\n<p>The Prometheans were not scary. I think them being revealed before the game came out kind of ruined any surprise. Even then, the Prometheans lack personality. Not like the Flood have it either, but the Flood were truly scary.<\/p>\n<p>Watchers are a pain in the arse, but easy to take out. Same with Crawlers. Knights, meh, they were never really a challenge.<\/p>\n<p>When I compare beating the games on Legendary, Flood were tougher than Prometheans.<\/p>\n<p>I hope in Halo 5 there are new enemies. Either new classes of Prometheans or finally some rogue still living Forerunners. I was disappointed that we never REALLY got to fight the Didact. Sure there is that QTE at the end of the Campaign, but it&#8217;s not the same as having to have a strategy to take him down. Just hit some buttons at the correct time and he&#8217;s toast.<\/p>\n<p>I suspect the Flood are going to make a return to Halo, could be they are an instrument of the Precursors, could be that the Gravemind is a Precursor. Whichever&#8230; Prometheans really need to amp it up in Halo 5. We essentially had to beat birds, dogs, and quirky hunchback beetles.<\/p>\n<p>The Flood were infected Humans, Elites, and Brutes. Definitely scarier as they were abominations. Prometheans are to armor and &#8220;clean.&#8221; Nothing really says, &#8220;Be scared of me!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #00ccff;\"><strong>-Sal<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is pretty simple to answer, IMO.
