Thats not the point.

Riiiight. Right. I see.

Or they could just use a different headline..

As somoene who LOVED the first game but absolutely loathed the second..im wondering if its worth my time getting invested in this show if its actually going to follow the seconds story arc. I really...really hope they don’t. But i have this terrible feeling they will.

No ones replied to this because they cant. There’s nothing to come back with. You are 100% correct. That’s all there is to say. Could not have put it better myself..

343 are bad at making halo...and Bunjie were good at making halo.

Christ. Its a show, dude. About fungus zombies. Based on a video game. Its not going for the Oscar in realism. Same type of people who tried to shit on Top Gun Maverick because some of the abilities of the jets were exaggerated. Its a movie...starring Tom Cruise..being a fighter pilot...thats the selling point. Not…

Because they have no faith that 343 can unfuck Halo. Its that simple. 

That’s not how business works and you know that.

Honestly - at this point they may as well. Daft as that sounds. When you mention Halo now people just laugh. No one takes it seriously. Its gone from being one of the most popular, genre defining, games to a joke. Thems the breaks.

That’s a common thread i see bandied about a lot. But it doesn’t really explain how badly the game has been managed to this day.

That’s putting it mildly.

Its not about that though. Read the article. “....to make sure the companies are meeting NASA’s requirements for workplace safety, including the adherence to a drug-free environment.” meaning...the people working on, you know, ROCKETS are not high while doing so.

Its not just these guys. And its part of a much bigger problem. The mentality of a LOT of people today feeling the need to prove themselves online to someone who ultimately does not matter over something that ultimately does not matter. A complete shift in people priorities and not the good sort. Sometimes, after a…

The irony of that and then Microsoft cutting 10,000 jobs , a lot of which are in their own in house gaming departments. What the actual fuck is going on over there?

Oh! I might have read that wrong. my bad.

“I don’t care for the unilateral price increase to $70 that the industry seems to be foisting upon us*”

Er.... id argue that the real reason MS hasn’t bought them is less about that and more about them being, well...a bit shit.

“...10% payrise to account for the inflation crisis and the implementation of a four-day working week.”

To be honest i wouldn’t even mind IF the games were worth it. But what recent release is? Not a single game in the last 5 years i can think of was worth the upgrade. They just inflate the specs to drive hardware sales. They clearly have a deal with Nvidia and AMD because for all the horsepower running these games Im…
