The businessmen that planned this

what should we do to make halo seem fresh, new and exciting?

lets make it open world and add in a grappling hook

hurr durr! Good idea!

Maybe it's time to either retire the series or hand it off to another developer then?

I'm uncertain about some of the things, but ultimately we only saw 8 minutes of gameplay. Hard to really judge what the final product will be. I still expect this to be the best 343 Halo game.

visually it looks really nice, halo 5 was a visual mess and everything looked identical. this seems to have gone back to enemies looking really distinct

No shit. The fans wanted a return to the classic Halo feel, and that's exactly what they're getting. That's why the parallels to the first game are being so heavily advertised.

I mean, that wouldn't really be saying much.

Halo 5 and MCC are both great. They got off to really rocky starts (especially MCC), but they eventually became very solid games.

i think there's a fine line between paying tribute and blatant nostalgia pandering and from a marketing perspective at least i think it's clear where this game lies

even the fucking box art is just "remember Combat Evolved?"

I loved CE and halo 2 back in the day, but i think its time to move on from their gameplay.

They keep trying to keep it similar with a few touch ups and it's just not working. The classic feel isn't quite there, yet it's too similar to feel new.

Just go all out and change it. Make it feel like you're actually a spartan. They're supposed to run at like 60 mph. Faster and more visceral gameplay with more movement options.

I like it. It looks more like what halo used to be.
