I am surprised to see everyone foster the Series X version instead of Xbox one in the case of this long developped Halo Infinite
It’s impossible to turn that thing into a next gen worth version within one or two years with a reasonable workforce
On the other hand, we are still frankly not even sure that the Destiny-like gameplay is worth anything in Halo. People are tired of it.
Sure thing, okay, it is true that these creatives are trying to find some good evolutions, but they are always the worst ones.
In short :
No one will buy the Xbox Series X in two years, so no one will play the new Halo even in a few years.
Halo Infinite will still look like **** in two years, concurrence will strike hard, there would be no reason to play a frankenstein Halo.
Players who already own an Xbox One will have nothing to play or buy until then so that is a complete waste of fanbase money.
I’ll toss my own coin: dump that Halo project on gamepass as quick as possible 343. And on EVERY platforms.
Keep the initial launch window and face your initial choices. Only the Xbox One community will back you up financially.
Extending the developpement of something that does not even feel promising gameplay-wise and art-wise is suicidal.
The quicker you get away with that project, the better it will be to make a truly good Halo on sound foundations.
I have never bought any 343i’s Halo title aside from the MCC, and with what you guys are doing, I still have no intention to buy anything anytime soon.
I have always despised next gen Halo titles, and with a frankenstein Halo Infinite solely on Series X, they are really not doing themselves a favor.
Still, thank you for the MMC refresh, the Halo2 remake was tasteful, but it is quite frustrating to see so many good talents used on these suicidal projects.
