343 killed my interest in Halo with Halo 4, and I skipped 5.

Infinite didn't look that great at the start, but it seems like 343 is trying really hard to improve and not mess up yet again.

I've been following a bit of news for Infinite and it's been kind of hyping me up.

Sort of where I am. Though in my case it's more than Halo 4 only kind of mostly killed my interest, and it was Halo 5 itself (plus the huge emphasis on all the books) that finished off my last thread of giving a shit.

Which is a shame, because Halo was originally one of my favorite franchises. But Bungie dropping it and leaving to make Destiny just resulted in two franchise I hate now from two developers I no longer trust.

Ehh, almost nothing about Infinite appeals to me at all.

Most of the 343 games just feel like no one in the studio actually understand Halo, or they actively resent it and keep wanting to change it into something it was never meant to be.

There's an argument to be made that franchises need to change over time to stay relevant, but there's also an argument that if you keep changing everything that makes you what you are you're eventually going to lose the audience that fell in love with you in the first place - and you risk doing it without successfully managing to build a new audience to replace them.

This sounds good in principle until you realize it means they're charging $60 for just the campaign, which is gimped. Complete bollocks.

sounds about right

they seriously fucked up with 5s story for no reason at all

just introduce all these characters from absolutely nowhere that, unless you read this specific book from years ago, won't even have any concept of, then throw the entire catalyst of the story into the end of a graphic novel and a seemingly throwaway line in one of the recent books, and also had watched this tv show movie thing, you won't have any idea what's going on or even really what the motive is

it was just

mechanically and gameplay wise, the game was rock solid, but
