* EnsembleDarkhorse: The unnamed Pelican pilot who saves Master Chief from floating in the void of space has been warmly received by the fanbase, and won a lot of points for how badly [[TheWoobie he clearly needs a hug]] and for his unwavering devotion and hero worship of the Chief.

** The Pelicon pilot has been drifting outside a broken Halo ring, and while he's fixing a hull breach, a holo of his wife plays, as she and his daughter send their love. He'd probably been holding onto that recording as he was expecting to die.

Is there an issue? Send a MessageReason:
Bad faith edit. A franchise is part of a continuing narrative. So, yes, the author — in this case 343 Industries — is changing the work. Halo 5 is not a "book", it's part of an active series. Also, nothing noted is rumor, it's expressly been stated by the developer as reactions to fan's requests. Also, the other reasoning (re: complaining) is A Distinction Without A Difference.

Added DiffLines:

* AuthorsSavingThrow: Many of the early details revealed for the game are explicitly targeted at fans who were put off by 343 Industries-era Halo, especially ''VideoGame/Halo5Guardians''. For examples:
** Master Chief is once again the sole protagonist, after ''Guardians'' was criticised for putting too much focus on Fireteam Osiris.[[note]]This was a complaint about ''VideoGame/Halo2'' regarding The Arbiter as well.[[/note]]
** There is an ArtShift back towards the Bungie-era aesthetic of grounded, simple technology in contrast to 343's more fantastical approach, without completely abandoning the latter. The reveal trailer highlighted a squad of Marines and the Chief himself as having old-school designs.
** There will be a comprehensive open beta testing period, after ''Master Chief Collection'''s launch issues.
** PC gamers are getting a ''Halo'' shooter for [[VideoGame/Halo2 the first time since 2007]].
** Many fans were outraged at the fact that ''Guardians'' didn't have split-screen in order to support constant 60fps, visuals and support. Bonnie Ross, head of 343 Studios stated at the 2017 DICE Gaming Summit that every Halo game post-''Guardians'' will have split-screen co-op.

Authors Saving Throw happens when an author makes a change in the work based on an Audience Reaction. This is more than just "listening to fans complain". Since it is about changes after the fact, anything written before the work reaches the audience is exempt even if it addresses potential complaints.
