If you guys let AI spread I'll put uncs+AI companions in charge and the world will be healed.
My only issue with Campaign Evolved is this dude:
Also that one cutscene. If you have seen it you know, lol. The one with the aliens. Not a Blizzard level animation section, lol.

He deleted his original Halo 2 review, but there he made his point clear.

Infact if you watched his original Halo Infinite review, he starts with saying he never liked Halo.
My issue with him was that he was reviewing Halo Infinite from the POV of someone who didn't like Bungie's Halo and mentions it first.He's twisting himself into a pretzel trying to make a coherent sounding argument and failing
"Why would I trust someone who hates Bungie's Halos"
"Oh also he hated the last Halo game from 343i"

I don't need protagonists to be pornstars but if they intentionally make them less acttractive than their real life counterpart, that's a problem.
As much as I dislike the long term mismanagement of Halo, I also can't listen to 30 minutes of whining from a YouTuber, his voice acting is absolute torture.
Maybe it made more sense inside your head, idk...
Anyway, the one on the left is less generic. But of course, for those with a compulsive disorder, measuring games on a masterbating scale, it's probably more like a 50/50.
The why do you care?-crowd obviously cared enough to make a female character less attractive. Only the women, only in Western games. I wonder why

Infact if you watched his original Halo Infinite review, he starts with saying he never liked Halo.
In the infinite video he says he's not the biggest fan of Halo, last he had played at launch was Halo 2, until Infinite. I mean that's not that controversial. Not the biggest fan vs never liked Halo. Do you see them as the same statement? I can too say that Halo's CE is probably one of the biggest moment of early 2000's gaming, that made me go say fuck it, and search on a huge radius around me to find a store that still had xbox for sale and drove 2 hours to get one and then played Halo nonstop for like 4 days. And I don't consider myself the biggest halo fan, I have only played Halo 1, 2, 3, reach. That's it
. I'm sure there's peoples who have spent >10k hours on that franchise and all the spinoffs for strategy etc. Not me.He ends his outro with "Halo infinite just kind of feels like it's a game not aimed at people like me, people who only kind of like the halo series" "the game taught me is what I already knew, that I'm not an halo fanboy"
What a nothingburger. This undermines his review of Campaign evolved how? I identify on his view of Halo franchise as a whole a lot more than the >10k hours nerd that will scream sacrilege at any changes of the OG.
The halo 2 PC review is not watchable, no comments. Not sure how you extrapolate anything out of that, but let's say he hated it, let's go with that. Halo 2 PC , not his OG Halo 2 review. is also not well regarded on PC community, Vista exclusivity, games for windows live, lack of online coop, no Halo CE toolkit for custom weapons/vehicles, single player campaigns, etc.
Maybe, just maybe Gmanlives' review reflected the PC port? I guess we'll never know.
Game is full of bugs and cringe moments. Those new cutscenes were REALLY bad... like they did it on purpose just to annoy Halo fans. It's 343 Industries all over again. Fuck hAlO sTuDIoS. We deserve better than this Twin Snakes Unreal Plastic Engine bullcrap:
get the fuck out, there's only one real Metal Gear Solid 1 game and that's Twin Snakes.
They made that PS1 clunky POS with warping textures and shit gameplay into the game it should have been from the start.
Blessed Dyack.

Well it sure didn't go away but storytelling storyboarding scriptwriting matured a lot in some games compared to the xbox daysYeah. Cringe dialogue is an "old game" thing.

I do because the library was designed to make you feel a certain when you reach the end. Relieved, tired, glad the desperation of it never seems to end is over. Whatever. And it works.

I vaguely remember the original Halo 2 review made it seem like he hated Halo, not just the PC port. Like he called Halo a "cover shooter". He may be trying to mask himself now for a broader audience by deleting that video, but he originally had a very PC elitist view on Halo.
While watching his Halo Infinite review, when he started with "I am not the biggest fan of Halo", the original video was going through my head.
He is just being subtle now, but he hates the OG Halo trilogy. Now he is trying to hide this for some reason.

It's funny how there's always this hyper masculine female being represented as a boss. I've had female bosses, they do not act like this at all, 99.9999999% of females don't. The people making these games are 100% cracked out of their mind. It's not even about having a girl boss, its about emasculating men, even Master Chief. It's a joke.

Sounds "toxic."
Represent.
Represent(ative) of bad opinions
We, I think, have similar tastes. Play the game, it's fun and fucking gorgeous. Plus … it's halo… on PlayStation. Just try it. The people hating it are Halo elites, enthusiasts, gatekeepers. If you have no halo experience it'll just be a fun gorgeous FPS. Most of the complaints boil down to black woman bad and chief no aura

How much does a group have to signal they'd rather be a man? I mean that's what it is. It's not celebrating femininity, it's attempting to hijack men's masculinity for themselves. It's not even just ass backwards, it's upside down all twisted around. It's insanity.

This revisionism about The Library is insane. Nobody liked the OG level. It was literally the most infamous level in the entirety of the series for how much of a slog it was. The lead designer of the map, Tyson Green, even said: "If I had to all to do again, I'm sure the level would be shorter, but no less difficult." (taken from halopedia).
The new level is shorter, but still difficult and no longer just repeating the same handful of hallways/big doors to holdout in front of for 30 minutes. Plus the whole atmosphere of the new level, how each floor gets more Flood-ified as you go down, is pretty great. Only thing I'm iffy about are the lightbridge rooms. Not sure if they were intended to be puzzles originally, and then changed at the last minute? Kind of weird. Overall though just better in every way than the original.

I like campaign evolved, I knew it wasnt going to be a 1:1 but having fun and in some aspects feels like the old Halo, but I agree with a few parts in the video, give the franchise open to 3rd party developers (like Warhammer does) and let them make spinoffs, Halo Wars was extremely good and to an extent 2 was, potentially a spinoff ODST titles or Total War: Halo
They need to build the franchise back up, I just see Campaign Evolved in someway a tech demo for them testing and trying stuff, the game visually looks unreal but at some point we have to also agree some of the way the original looks would just get slated to non-halo fans, this is just to drive people into the Halo world before they make it either exclusive again.

The overall artistic direction is also messed up, as it couldn't be any other way with these remakes perpetrated by hacks.

How is the remake supposed to look like? Completely leagues ahead of the anniversary's infamous raping of the art style. I've seen nothing but praise on how it looks by peoples whom I respect their opinion, not youtuber drama farming paint sniffers.

Getting that reaction from you is basically a win

Nobody cares about stuff like that, it's literally 4 guys and you are one of them. It's 0.000001% of the game and has no weight. Nobody who is a virgin to Halo is gonna care about a hint.

I think John from DF did an excellent analysis of that imo.
I'm sure there's peoples who complained at RE4 remake's visuals too, but cmon. Are we also expecting Zelda OOT remake to have N64 fog and barren world with complete lack of details?

Apparently they act of liking the original Bungie Halo games is equivalent to being James Sawyer Ford.Getting that reaction from you is basically a win

Keep living in your bubble of 343i fans who actually like this remake and think everyone else is a troll. This is like the Marathon fanbase at this point.Who is the normal people here? Because as someone who bought Limited Edition of Halo 2, 3, Reach and even 4, I sure as hell am not.

I was so excited to get this in my hands. Screw the random weird woke stuff, the core game is what I'm in for. I have been playing Halo since day 1 and stopped after Reach as 343 has no idea how to make good games (however, MCC is excellent).
The one thing I was most excited about was gaming with my brother again, doing a co-op game on legendary and struggling. Except this Halo has taken the challenge of legendary and turned it off. It's the easiest Halo I've played so far which ruins the fun of battling it out for over a week to get through it all. I'll probably be fully done this weekend with the easy platinum. The AI is atrociously horrible. It's a remake, why is the covenant worse than the original game?

343i themselves failed to make people care about their Halo fanfics. And looks like they never will.
Incase you have never played the OG Halo games, that was literally the big reveal of the OG Bungie trilogy.
Bungie built up to this reveal with hints since Halo CE. 343i not only retconned this, they are removing aspects of those hints from their remake by changing dialogue.

To be fair I think I will buy it but when it's probably $15 but other than the graphical upgrade I've always thought the series was overrated but will support their initiatives especially when they first brought Master Chief to Steam.
