343 Industries will then take on a parental role for Halo, overseeing new games and content while working on maintaining the game's engine. This isn't entirely new territory for 343 Industries as it has relied on outside help to develop Halo Infinite's multiplayer content (Season 2 is a prime example of this), but Bathrobe Spartan claims that the planned story-based DLC has been scrapped due to it being considered not cost-effective under 343's stewardship.

I knew it already in my heart but I'm still devastated.

(If you come on this post to tell me how bad you hated Infinite's campaign, kindly fuck off and get your own post)

"Players First" says the microtransaction-filled, bug-riddled, half-assed game that couldn't even fulfill the promise of co-op on time.

It's interesting that halo conservatives call people who like things that aren't the holy pentagon of halo (CE,2,3,ODST and Reach) shills, because their views are so strong that they cannot imagine someone freely disagreeing with them so they choose to believe that people who do disagre with them really agree with them but are payed to say otherwise

I stopped following Halo Infinite updates like a year ago, but every few months I’ll search for it on youtube and it’s so funny how the big talkers flip-flop their opinion on it on a weekly basis.

Yesterday: 343 has SAVED halo!

2 weeks ago: Halo Infinite is DEAD

3 weeks ago: Gameplay has been FIXED?

4 weeks ago: 343 KILLED the Halo Franchise

1 month ago: Can Halo Infinite be SAVED?

With how often people complain about how 343 handles Halo, I never hear my own biggest issue:

343 pushes the fantasy elements HARD and forgets to approach it as a war story at all.

The original Halo games' narratives were war movies in a sci-fi fantasy setting, not sci-fi in a military setting. That is, it was a war story first with fantasy set dressing. The earlier books and Halo: Reach took this approach the strongest, but that was the priority for Halo's story for Bungie's entire run.

Basically all of the grounded but glorified approach to war that you'd expect from an American propaganda film, but set in a sci-fi universe with sci-fi bad guys.(another example of this style of story is the movie Battle: Los Angeles)

Even in the more fantasy leaning parts of the original trilogy, the UNSC and the Covenant had the appearance and feel of a functioning military, especially in terms of how characters interacted with each other outside of combat.

The sci-fi elements on the humans' side were also much more grounded than 343's interpretation. Outside of spaceships, the games, books, and other media always mostly showed humans using technology that, to some degree, already existed in the real world at the time, only inserting sci-fi on the humans' side where it was necessary for gameplay or to facilitate events in the story.

343's portrayal of how military personnel (Spartans moreso than normal soldiers) interact may as well be ripped from an MCU film, and most of their sci-fi leans WAY harder into fantasy than Bungie ever would have.

Beyond the contents of the narrative itself, I grew up in a city with a population that was 2/3 active military and veterans, and I went to a public high school that was on an active military base. Tons of people everywhere from ROTC to the actual military preferred Halo over other games because its story portrayed military personnel more accurately and respectfully than more "realistic" shooters like Battlefield and CoD. I've heard from other people that this sentiment didn't end at my hometown.

Halo Infinite managed to correct or compensate for a lot of the problems with earlier 343 titles, and Halo Wars 2 brought back the best of the old visual elements, but I'm worried that what made Bungie's Halo stories stand out might be gone for good.

I’ve been saying this needed to happen. Blame floats to the top and Ross has a success rate of 1/4. 343 industries needed a big shake up and here it is.

Some Halo ideas I had. Included is some aircraft that is a mix of UNSC and forerunner technology.

My feelings of "Infinite felt like an apology to me personally for 5 and I accepted it" and "it's extremely sad to me how Halo has swerved its story on every installment of the last decade" coexist because having feelings is complicated.

You ever think about them? And how we last saw them alive in Shadows of Reach (2020) which takes place in October 2559*. Do you ever wonder? They acted like this in front of Halsey.

*Yes I know Lasky got audio logs in Halo Infinite from December 2559 but he just quoted Palmer and said a bunch of embarrassing boy scout shit for the Hope theme. I miss seeing his square little head and Palmer.

I know it's been a while since it's been a hot button topic but holy fuck the reporting system in newer minecraft versions is so so bad and only getting worse. They're absolutely ignoring their entire community which has consistently and constantly been telling them its a horrible idea.

#Youtube #minecraft #343i absolutely failing and losing all respect from the halo community also lmao #honestly everything microsoft touches is poisoned

if your read on the weapon is that she’s the chief’s new girlfriend then im taking you back to high school level english class so you can revisit your critical thinking skills

#txt #this isn’t exclusive to fans but also like. @343i. #1) people only say that bc shes a copy of cortana not bc theres any chemistry literally at all #2) look at the ‘cortana is replaced w a non mentally ill and younger/naive version of herself’ and tell me thats not gross #3) pairing said young naive copy with her predecessor’s forty whatever year old former best friend…????? #literally how does any of it make sense to people. its not even funny as a joke… #every day i hope this is not the direction 343i is going in for the weapon and every day it seems that that is. actually what theyll do #it just feels so gross on so many levels LOL #im just trying to brace for impact at this point #like yeah to bad we completely fucked over this established fan favorite for a moment of shock value. now how do we dredge the emotional #impact of this franchise which is founded in that characters relationship w the protagonist #oh yeah lets copy her and make her younger and less complicated. that’ll work. LMFAO #AUGHGJJFJSMAM
