Ive always wondered what everyones thought about a halo rpg game. Think it would work? How would a game like that start? I personally think if they can make a strategy game of halo why not a rpg. There is already so much background story from all the games and books, the possibilities are endless.
Sure, but since the FPS games are the main driving force of the universe, the RPG would be very limited in the choice department. It cannot introduce too may differing variables to the overall story 343 wants to tell. Like, if the hypothetical RPG had different endings, 343 would have to dictate which one is canon for their story or ignore the events of said game altogether.
True but it could kinda fall in like halo wars where its i different timeline the somehow flows in with the halo universe. But i do get your point on the limits of it unless they make there own story like some of the starwars games
An RPG does not always have to have the option of choice making. Look at Kingdom Hearts. It is an RPG, but it has no choice making options within its story or even character “powers.” It is a linear RPG. I can definitely see Halo doing something of this sort.
Ive thought about this alot and I hope it’s something 343 will one day consider
I would like a game like Star Trek Online
Play as a Captain of a ship and explore the galaxy, fight other ships, ground missions on planets…
Upgrade your ship and personnal equipment…
Level up to higher grade and acquire biger ships…
Your character can be a human, elite, brute, jackal, …

There kinda is. Its a mod for sins of a solar empire 2 that lets you play as the unsc or covenant its pretty fun
I can’t believe they haven’t made one yet considering how rich in lore the Halo universe is.

I know right its crazy
The Elder Scrolls + Halo. I’d buy it.
Warhammer 40k + Halo = Awesome!
It could be a great game or a total flop, im a little bit worried but if they can manage it it would be fun.
But they need to make sure that HW 2 will be a great succes first.
As long as I get to play as a Spartan III i’m in
Or ODST…
I’d love for a game like Destiny or The Division where your UNSC or ODST and get to custom create a character and level up your soldier in a expansive open world universe. Collecting loot and better weapons/armor and skills, I think I’d be hooked for a long long time!
They could probably handle the open world element (assuming this is an open world RPG) similarly to Halo 3: ODST, while having the more open ended style of Halo 5’s combat. As far as when it should take place, I think it would make sense to set it after Halo 5. You could play as a Spartan IV aboard the Infinity fighting Cortana’s army of Created. Honestly, I think Halo would work better as an MMO, where you could collect different weapons with different attachments, and sets of MJOLNIR armor with different stats.
I remember there was plans for one but it got cancelled but why is this in the universe section?
Actually, I think it’d work great if it was a mass effect style rpg. You’d still have awesome gunplay and have the rpg elements too.
While it is not an RPG, a few years back, I was the project lead for a mod for Star Wars Empire at War. The mod was a total conversion mod which introduced various Sci-Fi factions, including Halo, into Space RTS battles.
In the end, I got board with the development, and I never released the final version of my mod. It was cool though. There is nothing like watching A Star Destroyer, The USS Enterprise, and a Covenant Assault Carrier just going at it, free for all.
I quit development just as I finished a working Lord Hood ground unit. It was pretty dope.

That would be a fun game. They made halo wars so maybe a rpg or mmo version of halo will come out
