they didn't

Halo ended at 3. Everything since is just poor attempts to emulate the original trilogy's success. Blame Microsoft for continuing to parade the corpse around.

Microsoft ruined Halo. Bungie only wanted to do 3 games at max but Microsoft forced them to create an entire series of games, Bungie got seriously burnt out and when they were declared independent it was the biggest relief for them.

343 Industries just did their best to keep the lore going obviously it wouldn't be the same but it left the title alive.

Imagine the last Halo being released in 2007

Bungie ruined Halo.

Technically this but only because of Microshit forcing them to

Bungie did that with ODST and Reach, /hg/.

This

Halo 1-3 is MC's legacy, Reach is the participation trophy for the other Spartans, ODST is a nod to the best of the rank and file. Everything else is just the afterthought confetti.

They want to make it their own.

They could have done that with the original without bending it out of shape, the in game universe is huge with millions of possibilities for original stories and conflict.

They didn't, halo 5 has the best multiplayer experience and soon halo infinite will come to destroy sonyfags next-gen, cry some more bungiefag.

Heck, with ONI having been confirmed to have divisions willing to do human experiments you have epocs worth of material for heroes and ambiguous villians during Halo 1-3 that happened in the background that MC wasn't able to be apart of.

>hating ODST
>Hating Ghosts of Onyx, Contact Harvest, etc.

shit taste

They're also much better able to expand the story than other space franchises like DeadSpace and the dreaded ME

Correct

Incorrect

Stop trying to shove the shit that is ODST and Reach with 1-3, /hg/.

Didn't mean to quote 503380569

It's a nice touch.

I can't wait for this game to nuke /hg/, Halo doesn't need a general.

>shit taste
/hg/ are well known for their shit taste.

ODST, at least, reach is Eh.

343 was made up of people who didn't understand Halo's core design, and as a result they tried to change it into something more generic and familiar to their normie-brains.

>Incorrect
Correct, Bungie were the ones who made ODST and Reach so they ruined it, Joe is writing Tell Me Why while Marcus is making Disintegration, both look like absolute shit

Not really, Joe's writing had problems since back in Halo 2.

Bungie were gamers that wanted to make fun games. 343 are self proclaimed “artists” that don’t even know nor care what fun is. They have never made a good game.

Bungie versus 343

Bungie changed Halo because they felt Halo 1-3 were dated.

Because they're retarded and tried to make their own thing instead of make the thing people wanted them to make
Also put Frankie at the top, a fucking community manager

Bungie was run by idiots who were lucky CE-3 turned out so good.

Halo was a product of a particular time and place and trying to drag it out for another decade just didn't work.

Even Infinite is only promising to turn back the clock to what's familiar... but why not invest that effort in creating a new, ground-breaking FPS franchise?

There will never be a developer like Bungie during Halo 1-3
And what is 343 run by?

You had to watch a movie before you could give a shit about Halo 5 campaign. And even then Halo 5 story was still shit. Halo is dead and 343 somehow keeps killing it.

Yeah, 343's direction was shit but I don't want a Halo 3 2.0. Anyone that wants that never understood Halo.

die shill

>but why not invest that effort in creating a new, ground-breaking FPS franchise?

because when you're throwing around the kind of money MS does when developing games taking risks isn't wise.

Halo 2 did have a ton more potential, but it's still a solid series in my opinion. Videogames are a bizarre story telling medium stuck between a bit too much at times corporate legislation

Idiots but with no smart people to reel the retards in. It took until the MS shareholders to get involved for 343 to start putting the right people in charge and fixing Halo's campaign which has been shit since 2009.

343 is just whoever microsoft could find from the world of corporate media based off of resumes and connections. they hired people who didn't care about or in some cases even know what halo was before being hired.
