343I Halo games experience

I want to start of this topic with that it’s sad to see Halo as a franchise being in this situation because of all the things that have happened since Halo 5.

Halo does not seem to catch a break from not having games launch as they should, or have a story that seems fulfilled. All the backlash, hate and laziness. It seems that since 343I took over, Halo has been placed in some dark toxic place. I think both parties are to blame for where Halo is today. When 343I showed they wanted to care, it was already too late because of all the frustration and hate the fanbase has kept since all the letdowns.

Looking back, it seems that the fanbase was frustrated when the games was different. Heading towards a new chapter with different artstyles. They tried to do something different with Halo. I really can understand why. Because Halo had its golden day, Halo had its peak. So to produce a new Halo game with so much similarities to the old games, would make it boring real fast. Because everyone has already experienced it.

So my personal opinion, looking back at 343I Halo games attempts, I’m glad they made their games stand out from the previous ones. It feels good to have variety in the storytelling playing through the campaigns.

What I do not like is that it seems they wanted to have their own identity on their Halo games so very much, that they excluded and alienated what the previous Halo games did so good. Even when you create your own identity you should learn and respect the past. Use it as a tool to forge the very best game.

It seems like Halo got an identity crisis because of the conflict and confusion that was being built up between the fanbase and 343I.

What I do not like was the laziness. Like the excuse about Master Chief having so different armor in Halo 4 and the new covenant designs. The excuses appeared to show laziness towards the game.

But enough negativity.

I want to say everything I appreciated about their games:
I liked the mantis, wasp, grunt mech, Infinites forge, Halo 5s smartscope, spartan abilities, warzone, prometheans, the didact, Infinites open world, flying the pelican in Halo 4 campaign, spartan ops, using the hunters shooting arm and more.

Everything they made was almost where it should be. It’s sad that their games only stood as a Halo game with potential. It would be great to have witnessed them create the games and nailing it. But sadly for me, that wasn’t the case.

It was a great journey, and I’m thankful for the Halo experience 343I gave even when it felt lazy sometimes.
I really wish that Halo gets what it deserve in near future.

the spartan ops in halo 4 was something a lot off people not like about it since there wane see more that firefight was make its return in halo 4 and not spartan ops.

the reason halo infinite has fail hard and there is a lot of negativity about it is all thanks to the wrong choose’s from 343 there have done.
and not forget the problems the game has there cant fix good.
and also to promice things and tell later its not going to happing is also asking for the negativity you can get.

the point is more how there have make things worse in halo infinite why things have going wrong.
the multiplayer has a long list off problems that are also game breaking there cant fix good.
the rotation playlist system what is also the wrong choose.
the campaign was also not good since it was fast boring since there not know how to make a good open world game and what it most have more to make it good then only a story line and a few mini missions.

and most off all is the comunication between the communety was also not good.
look is good when there was a hot topic on the forum do you ever see a developer make things clear about that topic at all and explane things to us why there have choose for that and not for something else.

what the diffrend is between halo 4 and halo 5 vs halo infinite is the state there have been release in.
halo 4 and halo 5 both have been release in good state without big problems and if there wase some it got a fix in a few month’s also.
halo infinite was release in a bad state with a lot off big problems there cant fix good in month’s.

if any game gets a release in a bad state then there will always be a lot off negativity against the developer company since there release a game in a bad state to us and thats something that most never happing in the first place to release a game in a bad state then the company is asking for the lot off negativity it gets then.
