I would buy smth just to support them, to keep this game alive… But they decided to create core restrictions and ugly coatings ( i can’t even choose the color I want). That’s why I’m not gonna support this system.
I could but not everyone lives as comfortable as I do and I do feel bad for everyone who has to play with the default stuff ( and don’t want to)

It’s not just ugly coatings, even all the emblem palettes are horribly ugly. It’s so weird how half the shop items are super cool and well made, and the other half are so painfully unlikable. It’s like they dump all their budget into the $20 and $15 bundle, and put virtually no effort into the free and low cost content. Sure, “you get what you pay for” but come on

How is MCC $700 worth of content? Also, it’s not free. Gamepass costs money.
Yeah. I’d gladly support the longevity of the game, just not like this.

All the games plus all the DLC and then additional DLC added in the last 2 years that weren’t included in the original games

There was a time when what separated Microtransactions from DLC was that DLC ranged from $10-20 and contained actual new content, while Microtransactions we’re usually $0.99-$3 and we’re just little things like cosmetic weapon skins.
Now those same skins cost as much as actual content expansions used to.
If anyone doesn’t think this is overpriced, Idk what to tell you.

Does that really add up to $700? Like, even at launch the price of the five games only added up to $300. And right now you can find copies of Halo Anniversary, Halo 2, Halo 3, Halo Reach, and Halo 4 GOTY on amazon for less than $20 each. You can also find a digital code for MCC for $25 on Amazon. Look, I like Halo, but you’re not getting $700 worth of content in the MCC. Maybe if you totalled all the content when it was brand new, but I’m even doubtful of that without seeing your math.
Honestly, my friend, you can take all the credit. All I did was make a suggestion and you went above and beyond by looking up all the content and thoroughly detailing them in your update.

Bro don’t compare the prices to buying used discs online. Nintendo would happily sell you Super Mario 64 for $60 for another 20 years. Halo CE, Anniversary, Halo 2, 2 Anniversary, Halo 3, Halo Online, ODST, ODST Firefight, Reach, 4, additional content and ports, and including the DLC listed by the OP, I’d say $700 is a good estimate
Otherwise you could shovel it all aside and say you don’t have Game Pass and paid $100+ for all that above content, which is still a great deal for $100. What can I get for $100 in Halo Infinite? A Campaign, and a couple armor sets from a few battle passes in 3 years, or blow it all on DLC armors and skins, idk, you decide. I believe OP’s post is pretty fair.

I believe that you gotta give credit where credit is due.
I used to work in journalism and now moved over to film/tv, so I genuinely appreciate the gesture.

Don’t call me bro, why would you call a girl that? And regardless of what Nintendo would want you to pay, no one is going to pay $60 for Halo 2 anymore. They just aren’t. And used copies are fair when considering price for this reason. You’re not going to pay $60 for a game you can get for $10. That’d be crazy. And the MCC on Amazon is a digital code sold by Microsoft’s storefront. It’s not a used copy.

I use bro and bruh regardless of gender, species, or sentience, as well as dude and man. It’s a filler word like using the good ol F-bomb for no reason, as a sentence enhancer. As for prices, are we not comparing apples to apples here? OP is comparing what you got then VS what you get now. You’re comparing apples to oranges, like a grandparent going on about how they used to be able to buy a hamburger for $0.01. The argument is that the prices for items we can buy in Infinite are not equivalent to their value.

Referring to girls as bro isn’t enhancing anything, and I don’t like it. Please, don’t call me that again. Would you like it if I called you sis? Sup sis? Just using a sentence enhancer woman. Don’t worry about it girl. Doesn’t sound good, does it?
And when MCC was new you got all the stuff in it for $60, and all the games were already old. And, in fact I think this shows even more why things like $20 for Hazop aren’t worth it. Why would it be worth it for Hazop when you can get the MCC for $25 new from Microsoft?

Wouldn’t care. I grew up with Xbox Live trash talk. You get used to people throwing words.
When MCC was new, it didn’t even work, and had basically nothing in it. Each additional game was like $10 DLC.
I’m already arguing that the store prices are overinflated, so idk what you’re getting at by saying what OP and I are already saying.

Well, just because you wouldn’t care, doesn’t mean it’d be being polite. I would respect you if you asked me not to call you something, so please don’t refer to me as bro, or bruh, or man. I don’t like it.
Yeah, maybe it wasn’t great at first. But that’s not the product people praise now. The product people praise now is the current version of the MCC which costs $25. It’s a great price. Not worth $700, but a way better deal than Infinites store.
And I’m not disagreeing it’s overpriced in Infinite. I was just saying the content in MCC isn’t worth as much as you said, and you don’t get it free with gamepass. We can agree on one issue and disagree on another.

I would advise not getting hung up over names in halo. It’s a waste of time. We are all here to talk Halo.
It doesn’t matter what price it’s at and what price you think it’s worth. The content you get in MCC and in halo 5 are far greater in features. Everything in infinite can be done in all the other halos.

These are the only “new” experiences and some of them are free while only two is $60. It’s clear as day that they are giving us a product with less and charging the same. If anything the campgain should at least be $30.

We may be here to talk Halo, but is pleasant discussion not better while being respectful?
I agree with pretty much everything else you said. As much as I like Infinite I don’t think it does so much more than other games to justify the $60 price tag ontop of a store where they charge $20 for one piece of armor. I really don’t. It was mainly the claim that MCC had $700 worth of content I was disputing. I totally think it’s a better deal than Infinite, regardless of how much I actually think it’s worth in total.
