I’ve spent some time reflecting on everything I’ve read and seen about Halo Infinite over the past 24 hours. I ask myself, what would be my reaction to my team pitching me this most recent demo that was presented? Curious to hear what you would say?
Great Mega Bloks ad, where’s Halo Infinite?

Honestly, I joined the stream late and thought it was some kind of Megablocks toy thing.
I wouldn’t be happy, i would be surprised that they even wanted to show that.

Agree with you
I’d gasp and be like wtf is this why are we time skipping again and disavowing the last two games? Sure they weren’t great but are we learning and taking what was good from them? Did we even listen to the fan feed back or are listening too much? are we really gonna reset again ? like why are we going back in time to make a shotty attempt at copy pasting halo ce? And what in gods name is that grapple hook mechanic ?! Chiefs a tank on legs he’s not going to sling shot across the map?! What’s is this apex!? Listen we’re not bungie nor will we ever be. We need to take halo forward and do 343s halo this time. We have to make the best damn halo of our generation not grasp at the past. Like sure keep what’s good from the originals but move forward, improve, evolve, we need to revolutionise Halo. We need villains to be threatening and intimidating not cringe and cliche. We’ve gotta give our players a real sense of danger, we need a story to hit the players in the feels and get them attached and inspired even, we need gameplay that’s inventive, ground breaking and fun. The kind of stuff that keeps the players coming back and wanting more. We NEED to show the fans that we have what it takes to take on the halo mantle!
Now take this roblox looking, janky -Yoink- playing and lack lustre driven plot away and don’t come back until it’s worthy enough for the next generation, worthy of having HALO in the title and most of all you do it for FANS.
I don’t care how many times we have to announce a delay but by god we’ll do it right and make it the best damn game ever.
This is what I would say.
I would issue a “-Yoink!-’s rant” dub for this scenario.
Tell them we need to delay the game if this is really the best vertical slice they had for me

The large majority of ppl criticized 343 for trying there version of halo. Everyone wanted a h3 clone and they’ve tried to please everyone equipment in mp for h3 lovers and large campaign areas for ce lovers and sprint and clamber for the advanced movement fans
I’d say interesting gameplay demo, can I see an example of what the actual graphics will look like? Oh… Is this it? Hmmm I think we need to tell Microsoft we’ll need another 2 years… Can we get the guys who worked on Halo 2 anniversary campaign graphics in here? Oh and call up the guys who did textures in Halo Reach and the people who worked on explosions in Halo Reach. We’ll also need the guys who did dynamic lighting in Halo 3, remember pulling out an energy sword in a dark room in Halo 3 and how it would light up everything? Yeah, we need that and at least another 2 to 3 years of work.
“Djeez guys, what happened to the slipspace engine demo you showed me in 2018? And by the way, didn’t we finally NAIL the design of brutes in H2A? What’s going on there? Chill out though, I’m calling Phill and tell him we need to postpone this game and the launch of Series X by at least two years, that’ll brighten his day.”

Well quite honestly… I would be…frozen for a full minute. Think about it. And finally just say this. Here is what is off about the game. Fix that first, then get back to me.
Even I reflected on this. And I feel this is really the only things which are making me feel troubled about the game.
I am content with sprint. I personally dont enjoy it nor love it. I just look at situation and decide is it time to use sprint or not. What is the best tactic for next few moments.
I would be like what in the world is this and why??? and then I would delay the game until further notice
“I’d buy it for current gen.”
Which is what I will be doing.
I would be quite pleased. The game looks like it plays with nice fluidity. I like the open world implementation, while still keeping a focused story. The gun variety seems fun, and all of my favorite enemy types are present.
Of course, there are still plenty of details to learn about each thing I just mentioned, but I would say so far, so good… And I am HYPED baby.

I’d be like delay this until it meets the standards Halo deserves.
“Hm, looks good. I’m liking how we’re leaning back on some of the classic designs and introducing new, exciting things for our gamers to explore. Great job! So we’re aiming for a 2021 Fall release, yes?”
I would be more in line of open minded, yet contructive critical discussion of how to progress. Show em side by side comparisons with older games and ask WHYOWHY is it how it is?
Is the graphic phidelity toned down since the processing power is used to generate the vast terrains and effects? ETC
