Today in youtube... Influencer is dumb
Of course they would reuse assets, how do you remake something without the assets to remake. Does this chop think 1000 interns are gonna sit and eyeball every model from scratch

Reusing assets is still considered a remake btw. I'm sure he would be happy if it was called a reboot or "reimagining"

A YouTuber has an opinion: the perfect excuse to make a thread.
Jesus fucking Christ this video is retarded. Games are taking forever to make and budgets have ballooned, yet somehow developers finding ways to do things more efficiently is bad. What an absolute smooth-brained moron.
YouTubers aren't people. They don't deserve human rights.

The Resident Evil comparison is weird. If they made the remake from ground up like Resident Evil 2 Remake by being faithful to the original and then reused those assets for remakes of later Bungie Halo games, no one will complain. But they are reusing assets from 343i games like Halo Infinite. Even the main menu UI is from Halo Infinite. It does not make sense canonically.
He actually makes a lot of good points. Like from lore perspective pure form Halo from Halo 3 should not exist in Halo CE. They used the inferior elite sword swing animation from Halo Reach instead of the superior one from Halo CE. The lines of Sergeant Johnson are not as good the Bungie games. The prophets don't look as majestic like before they had gold crowns and priestly robes. The levels in Halo CE were not designed around sprint. Cortana looks shit. The elite grenade throw animation is inferior to the original Bungie one.

I don't think you watched the video. He's saying they reuse assets from later games which don't make sense canonically according to the timeline of the game.

Im not gonna give that loser any views.
If thats the context then thats even more sad take to have.
Its halo, the story is stupid, we wanna be buff space marines shooting the aliens, no normal people are upset by this.

I don't know how people still struggle with this.
Remasters - A resolution/frame rate bump at the very least. New shiny graphics on top of the pre existing game, maybe a few QOL improvements.
Remake - Rebuilt from the ground up with a new engine and systems. Shiny new graphics. Most likely changes to the story.
Halo CE is a remaster.
Also. Loads of games reuse assets. Look at RGGS. The asset reusing kings. Doesn't have any bearing on if a game it a new game or a remake using assets.

We? Normal people? Threads and people like this are very common, we got a thread every month for 5 years after the games release. There are some really anal purists out there but even so he's saying the game looks decent in this vid. Not sure why you're calling the guy a loser.

Id bet most on gaf dont really care about the story/lore of the entire halo franchise. Some grugnak the white ogre monkey is the big bad now from some rts game no one really played and a bunch of random comics no ones heard of.Who is the normal people here?

If the story/plot of the original game is basically the same and they are faithfully remastering the game then I dont see 99% of people caring.

No, the lore is a big reason why the game had so many fans.
Halo fans care about this stuff, 343 never did, it's one reason out of 3746363920 they sucked so bad.

I only play the Halo campaigns. I don't know if you're aware of this, but Halo actually had a bunch of awesome books that were written as well. The lore is really deep. Despite the bungling by 343 Industries from Halo 4 onward, Halo lore is awesome.
