Oh wow. That is truly a huge Jab at halo and 343I.

Going. “Halo 3 should have been the last game of MC story. We were smart enough to leave him alone after 3”

Nevermind the legendary ending of halo 3. Setting up Halo 4

It’s a joke. It isn’t a jab at anyone. I personally thought it was funny.

This analogous to stating that removing the Destiny Easter egg in ODST is a huge jab to destiny because they retroactively removed their content, but in reality it was removed out of respect for the Destiny IP.

It all seems familar, like a distant dream, whose content is vague and fuzzy in retrospect, but I cannot shake the sense of deja vu.

Naw, It was a pure legal issue, they even stated that.
But This is an Easter Egg
This is a Jab The Destiny thing felt like a Jab

That is pretty cool OP.

I wouldn’t say it was a jab, just a subtle nod I think.

I really hope you guys understand that 343i and Bungie still greatly respect eachother.
Infact, here’s a relatively long speech Frankie made in defense of Destiny on Gaf.

You’re reading too much into it.

Possibly. But you go on the MCC forums and the Halo reddit and you have all the “Hardcore” Halo fans going, “Halo 3 was the end of the Series. MC never left his cryo tube. Halo 4 never happen. 343I ruined halo”

This Easter egg seems like a nod to those fans.

Because a reference to Halo has to contain subtext criticizing its current direction? I tend to be a pretty cynical person, but this just seems absurd. But, I guess you’re free to interpret it how you want.

I’m pretty sure you’re just seeing what you want to see.

Bungie planned Halo 4 before falling back on Reach anyway, so they would have followed up Chief’s story if they felt they could finish it. It’s just a funny reference. Hell, Cayde-6 even mentions Pathways into Darkness in a humorous fashion.

Well not really if halo takes place in 2557 than destiny takes place in 2300 see my point

Pretty much, I am one of those fans.
