Halo Infinite has issues holding it back, and im not saying Halo Infinite is not a good game because it is and i love it. However, i will not be blind by fanboy-ism. There is only a few things holding this game back: The constant PC crashing, Lack of Customization, and the delay of forge mode and certain game modes. I will try to break this rant up to be easily digested.
First id like to talk about the lack of customization, that was one of the big things that was advertised to us in halo infinite. And i dont mind the monetization, but even with the battle pass, and paying for the campaign. the customization is so lack luster. Many people really expected more stlylized spartan suits and armor coatings, but what we get looks so dull. we have to pay 20$ in store at the time of this post for a armor helmet you get after a few levels in reach. and the armor coating scheme is so dull. it doesnt catch my eye, doesnt cause me to want to spend money in fact it feels overpriced. But im hopeful that the store will get better as well as the battlepass.
However, what is unacceptable is the lack of campaign armor unlocks, it is a SIN upon the halo community, to not give a special armor coating or armor set for players who completed campaign achievements such as completing it on LEGENDARY or finding all the hidden skulls. This was so important in causing a feeling of prestige amongst halo players. and now it feels like there is no point to completing the campaign on legendary. or even attempting the LASO achievement (without the cheating scorpion gun bug). The have things called armor lockers but ironically they contain no armor for the player to unlock just more boring coatings and emblems. It feels like they did not put ANY effort or love into giving us customization unlocks for campaign buyers.
Other than that, and the fact that PC rampant crashing needs to be fixed. i think this game is amazing and with the release of forge, the community will carry this game to be #1 no doubt this game will improve after adding small updates over time and we have to be proactive about our concerns and wants.
