Even the main series of HALO is in a devastating situation
Fans are gone, esports gamers are gone.
In such a HALO winter era, will the HALO spin-off come back?
I love the Banished army that first appeared in Halo Wars.
They are proud and brutal. very cool. (I also like non-human perspectives like Halo 2’s Arbiter)
How will the SoF crew fight? There is no doubt that you want to experience the continuation of their story as a game.
The game is also a very cool series.
There is no doubt that it is the best work if it is made correctly.
343 has decided not to fix save data bugs and achievement unlock bugs in HALO WARS 2.
I feel like they don’t have much love for the series (they didn’t make a commemorative comment on the HWseries release date last year!)
HALO WAYPOINT doesn’t have HALO WARS works in the first place. tough.
Will HWseries come back?
I will always support you…

If you have HALO WARS3,
It’s fun when it becomes an omnibus-like work.
Draw a fight with Cortana from Atriox’s point of view,
The story of the Spirit of Fire crew rescuing Anders,
Spartan rock’s escape drama is an element that is not drawn in the game.
HALO4, HALO5, and HALOInfinite are series works, and although they end like a cliffhanger, the story doesn’t connect.
If it becomes a work that connects everything, I think it will be a fun experience.
Atriox Outsmarts Halo 5’s Cortana… How Did You Do It?
How was he able to make Cortana disappear? I can’t see the connection between HW2 and HALO Infinite.
what did Anders do? what happened…
I want to know!

i dont know if you played infinite or not but he didn’t outsmart her, more like he wainted till she was vulnerable to strike. Really all the games end in cliffhangers but more time passes between halo 4, 5, and
that it makes the story a little hard to follow, but i still feel the games are contected, except infinite, thats where the story really takes a dive.
getting back to your post i wouldn’t want halo wars to fill the gaps between games maybe it can be used to tell stories of other great battles from the halo lore kinda like what 1 and 2, then use them as a way to be introduced into the main story like what 2 did. i really like the banished in HW2, they were badass and felt like a serious new threat! but infinites makes them almost laughable, like seriously these guy’s took down the infinity, how? they just rammed abunch of ships into it, thats how.

Yeah I agree that jumping the main storyline around too much between media/game genres won’t help, but they can absolutely tell parallel stories across the Halo Universe.
The main issue will be who to partner with as 343 isn’t an RTS studio and has always used external production studios for non-FPS games… Ensemble is dead, Creative Assembly pitched a HW3 and that got shot down (and have their hands pretty full with Total War (although do seem to be working more closely with Xbox Game Studios via Game Pass for PC now). That leaves: World’s Edge (which isn’t a production studio so doesn’t really help beyond project management of RTS games), Relic Entertainment (who made AOEIV and seem pretty busy with AoE…).
Other left-field options would be Paradox Interactive…they have a bunch of studios (including one based in Redmond) , have been working on strategy for years and have been increasingly involved with Game Pass and putting RTS on console.

I sincerely want HALO WARS 3 to return,
When Activision comes to XBOX, I want the Warcraft team to make it.
Oh! Sure, Paradox could be good.
I hear that Robot Entertainment has many former ensemble members.
Might be better with their power!
I also like Spartan stories,
I like the alien side of the story more.
The Arbiter in HALO2 and HALO3 was the coolest,
“AwakeningTheNightmare” is my favorite DLC.
The HW series has traditionally featured villains,
Atriox is my favorite universe character. I think he should be the next lead!
For me the HW series biggest strength has always been the Blur Cutscenes and narrative, though, retaining that is absolutely a must

After they butcher the Warcraft 3 remake and then want back to the older Warcraft 3 and cut content out of it to make the new one look better… no way.

In my opinion, HALO WARS 2 will be compatible with STEAM, and for the time being, it will be fine to continue adjusting work such as balance adjustment for half a year.
If the reputation recovers, DLC will also be desired.
Blitz is a good mode, but blitz card sales should end.
HALO WARS 3 is exciting if it exists.
I really want to, but I also understand that it is difficult.
I am sure it was said that they decided no to Halo Wars 2. Since Atriox and the Banished story has been ported into Halo Infinite that’s probably where that story thread is going to continue.
As for the Spirit of Fire and the Ark itself that seems to have been parcelled out to one of the authors as their little story corner. So presumably they will carry on that thread.
Anders is a problem since much like why there’s no POV at Earth you’d have to go into what happened to all the Created and they’re continuing to be vague on that point.
Well, they had every opportunity to offload the events between Guardians and Infinite in as a Halo Wars 2 DLC. Indeed from concept art the plan was very much that the Created would intervene at the Ark which would have made more sense. But they clearly had plans to do that in a FPS title and only late on decided on this time skip.
