Yes. I agree it looks more cartoon-ish than I would prefer. And yes, the AR sounds unrealistic and looks plastic and generic.
I REALLY hope it becomes grittier and at least somewhat more realistic looking and less plastic. But this is a DEMO, It’s not the final product!
We could end up with something more complete, which is something to expect, by the end of this year. They’re really trying! let’s give support and POSITIVE constructive criticisms.
EDIT (IMPORTANT): I’ve been thinking about the trailer and rewatched the demo walkthrough. I’m not gunna lie, we asked for gameplay and it was shown to us, and this looks REALLY fun. All aesthetics aside (Which we can still rant about), the gameplay looks very satisfying. There’s more ways to come about an encounter now, more areas to explore (because open world is money) AND if anything the sandbox is bigger. WHO KNOWS what multiplayer and FORGE have to offer. I’m ready to drop, I’m ready to become, can’t wait for this game.
But for real, everything looks like megablox. Let’s fix that.
they spent 5 years on this.

Not to mention, a certain pandemic threw EVERYTHING into chaos this year.
That being said, I DO like what they showed off for gameplay!
Also: BANISHED!

You know nothing about game development, do you.

why are you exited about banished? They look JUST like the covenant anyways. Default blue and purple colors lmao. No extra plating and armor like in halo wars 2.

I’m no game developer sure, but this is supposed to be close to the final game. I’m not complaining, but there’s no time to completely change the aesthetic is what im saying.
This isn’t a demo, kid. The game is finished, it could be released RIGHT NOW if they wren’t using it as a launch title for the next Xbox.

you are 100% right, yes they an adjust things but for a game coming out this holiday its impossible for them to make any massive changes. Gameplay and world design are tied in and they can only wiggle so much. graphics can be updated but especially with an open world looking title its not simple and talkes a long long time.
they arent changing anything. This is what we will get. stop it
yes this is a demo but isn’t for this reason it should look great? The demos are meant to outstand and attract players, but I feel infinity caused the opposite effect. I do like the sound effects, the sprint animations and the weapon effects. But I don’t like the graphics, I hope they improve them.

It says “Demo” for a reason, Bub

The majority of the groanings and anxieties are from how it LOOKS, not how it plays. This is a demo, and to be fair… the stream quality was terrible. Not to mention, We’re 5 months away from release time. This game is not finished quite yet.
I think folks are making a mountain out of a molehill, honestly.

Take a chill pill. Unless you have evidence to back it up, don’t make claims like this.
It looked bad. I had high hopes for Infinite and am keeping a open mind but in my eyes it was a flop.

I am just as disappointed, but no. It probably is not the final build of the game. These demos never are. In this day and age, games can be in development till the last minute. And even if this is the shipped build, they can easily work on a day-one patch. This isn’t the 90’s.
No, this is 5 years in the making. 5. This is what everyone was watching the stream for. This was the selling point for the Series X, and it looked poor (and it isn’t because of the stream’s resolution).
This is what Halo Infinite is…Destiny and Doom, rather than a Halo game. Make a Halo game. That’s my constructive criticism.

It’s a demo.
Also: I bet the OP is older than you with that attitude.

you can watch it in 4k on the youtube channel as well with a much less compressed video

Only if he was born before 1985, kid.
