So....Halo 5 failed

Now. As a Playstation gamer. I've always looked at halo with curiosity. "It's just a damn shooter. How good could a shooter be?". I saw previews for Halo 5 and I thought "Hey, maybe this one will convince me to try it". Guess what? WRONG. I've looked at what the fans have said and have seen AngryJoe's review for it. Yes, I trust AngryJoe more than IGN and Metacritic. He's a player AND a reviewer and doesn't get paid to make good reviews for certain games unlike *cough cough* IGN *cough. Let's look at the fails in the game: -Amateurish campaign length (4 hours and 30 mins roughly) -It's very easy with 3 other Spartans at your side -the Spartans you play with are forgettable characters -AngryJoe even said the graphics look beautiful but I always felt that Halo had shit graphics. Killzone looks better and was released in 2013 -You hardly ever play as Chief -There are dumb missions that include just talking to NPC's -The main character is Locke. Basically the whole story is Locke and his merry men who rob from the fans and give to Microsoft and 343. -Halo 5 was advertised as a VS with Chief and Locke but that doesn't even happen! -Terrible cliffhanger that doesn't earn it (don't know what happened but most of the time when people say that I find it to be true) -Companion Spartan AI is dumb as shit -You fight that warden boss guy like 7 times. SEVEN!!!!! I thought Destiny recycled bosses too much. We fought the gatelord and then 3 carbon copies of it. This Warden guy takes it to a WHOLE NEW LEVEL. 7 times!!! wtf??? Whoever did that should be fired and never be allowed to make games again -and of course, the dreaded and most hated MICROTRANSACTIONS! -not to mention I've also heard people complain about how bad the spawn camping is The strange thing with the microtransactions though, is that halo fanboys are DEFENDING IT. DEFENDING IT!!!!!! Wtf kind of drugs are these children on?! We don't want MORE microtransactions in games than there already are! According to AngryJoe, my only source in this, he went to the halo forums and ANYONE who says they disagree with the microtransactions are bullied, attacked, crushed, shut out, and hidden away because they so much as say ANYTHING bad about halo. Is this what the Xbox fanbase is supposed to be consisted of? If it is then I'll stick to my Playstation Nation. So dear 343. You baited me on this Halo and I came SO close to getting hooked. But you lost it EDIT: Lol so many butthurt posts I can't keep track of them all! EDIT: Also forgot to mention that you guys are literally praising a sequel that TOOK AWAY shit from the previous games, nerfed the campaign and added microtransactions. That's Microsoft for ya. I hope you all know that Microsoft bought Halo specifically to gold mine the money from all you drones. The worst part is that it worked better than imagined https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ahRDm9Bwlyc

    You're entitled to your view, and I'm entitled to mine. I just want to make that clear before I completely counter your opinion: -The campaign is short, but it has way more depth than other Halo games with all the implemented lore. It's actually longer than Halo 3, and guess what? Despite a fairly disappointing campaign, Halo 3 became a legend because of its outstanding multiplayer. Sound familiar? And Halo 5's campaign is much better than 3's, as you can't predict exactly what will happen in Halo 5 or summarize it in a sentence. -The spartans are only forgettable to people who haven't looked into the extended universe at all. Every single character has a backstory. -Graphics are just personal taste, so there's not much I can say to that. -I personally think playing as Chief would have ruined the story early on. I like how the plot isn't clear until the end of the game- it adds a mystery, sort of like ODST did. -I personally liked listening to NPCs, but that's also a matter of taste. -The story is definitely not solely about Locke. He drives it, but the plot focuses on the return of the forerunners, who have set out to finish the Didact's destruction of humanity. Cortana pretty much spells this out when she quotes the Didact's speech in the last mission. -The cliffhanger is much better than the one in Halo 2. Halo 5 left a lot of plot for 6, while the end of Halo 2 basically revealed the ending to Halo 3. -I prefer having a companion AI over no AI. If they had been able to help me in Halo 2 legendary, I would have totally taken the assistance. And they're not the smartest, but they really shouldn't be in order to keep the player from relying on them. -Don't you realize the significance of fighting the Warden 7 times? -The microtransactions don't provide that much of an advantage, despite popular belief. I played my first three warzone games with only a magnum and AR and still came out positive while winning two out of the three. So Halo 5 is mainly skill dependent. Not to mention that I can easily hijack a scorpion (https://youtu.be/MKZkO87FHmc) or kill a guy using a power weapon with another power weapon or grenade. The reqs don't make someone invincible unless that player is really skilled. Oh, and I just added that youtube video. It was from one of my games today.

      • Halo 5 just looks dumb. I just don't like the gameplay of it. It doesn't look like Halo anymore. This is coming from a person who doesn't have Halo 5, I just looked at it.

        • I am a massive Halo fan, unlike most people that say they are on here when they only play the games, and I whole heartedly disagree. This is possibly my favorite game since Halo 2. If you would like me to write why I will, but I would rather not write that much.

        • I have seen this video, and I completely agree with every second of it. I gave the game a 7/10 overall However, here's some bits that I don't mind: -no splitscreen. I used to play splitscreen all the time back in the halo 3 and reach days, but I mostly play online now. I don't live anywhere near my buddies anymore :( -the repetitive boss. I didn't think of the warden as a main boss, but just as a sort of upgraded knight that showed up every once in a while. I did hate it that there wasn't a final boss fight tho -the microtransactions. It sucks that they're in the game, but it doesn't really affect me at all. However, if someone else bought loads of gold packs and (as an example) spawned scorpions over and over again in warzone, then it just makes it more satisfying to take them down. Also, is it just me or are there literally no variation in things to do on this game. There's campaign, arena and warzone. That's it. And arena only has 5 options to choose from. All previous halo games including 4 had 10X the amount of shit at launch, INCLUDING FORGE! Why are devs so lazy these days? It used to be about creating something special but now it's all bout dat dolla

        • Cortana as the antagonist was a fairly forced development. Firstly, it's not like cortana at all. Cortana hating humanity wasn't developed at all in any of the halos. The only thing that was developed was her rampancy. I mean the part of her that loves chief is still there but it's buried under angst and, again, forced antagonistic character developments. Also they reused the meridian guardian model for the final sequence wich bugged me. And the Locke vs chief was dissapointing as well.

          • AngryJoe reviewed the game based on his experience with previous games. I believe he stated that if he wasn't such a Halo fanatic, he'd rate it higher.

            • Halo fan boy here, I refused and still refuse to buy a copy of halo 5, I didn't like the look of the campaigns direction (and after watching videos of it I stand by that original assessment). The graphics do look good so that's a plus, but and its a main reason why I didn't buy it. They took out Splitscreen and firefight, loved playing those two modes with my little brother...

                • As a Playstation gamer: you have not played it but are reviewing it? Amateurish campaign length (4 hours and 30 mins roughly): forgot to mention how much more in depth it is. It's very easy with 3 other Spartans at your side: well who would have guessed more firepower helps speed things up the Spartans you play with are forgettable characters- buck sure as hell wasn't forgettable. AngryJoe even said the graphics look beautiful but I always felt that Halo had shit graphics. Killzone look better and was released in 2013- no evidence to back up your point. You hardly ever play as Chief - that dosnt affect gameplay There are dumb missions that include just talking to NPC's - these aren't exclusive to halo 5, other big games use them The main character is Locke. Basically the whole story is Locke and his merry men who rob from the fans and give to Microsoft and 343: yes Locke is the main character. Why? Because the halo universe is bigger than just chief. Halo 5 was advertised as a VS with Chief and Locke but that doesn't even happen: there was one fight I guess, but I do see your point on this one. Terrible cliffhanger that doesn't earn it (don't know what happened but most of the time when people say that I find it to be true): I personally didn't hate the ending, but that is all based on opinions. Companion Spartan AI is dumb as shit: yup. But they help when your down or need help dealing with a boss. You fight that warden boss guy like 7 times. SEVEN!!!!! I thought Destiny recycled bosses too much. We fought the gatelord and then 3 carbon copies of it. This Warden guy takes it to a WHOLE NEW LEVEL. 7 times!!! wtf??? Whoever did that should be fired and never be allowed to make games again. Fair enough. not to mention I've also heard people complain about how bad the spawn camping is: true, but only for swat (from my experiences). The strange thing with the microtransactions though, is that halo fanboys are DEFENDING IT. DEFENDING IT!!!!!! Wtf kind of drugs are these children on?! We don't want MORE microtransactions in games than there already are! According to AngryJoe, my only source in this, he went to the halo forums and ANYONE who says they disagree with the microtransactions are bullied, attacked, crushed, shut out, and hidden away because they so much as say ANYTHING bad about halo. Is this what the Xbox fanbase is supposed to be consisted of? If it is then I'll stick to my Playstation Nation: micro transactions are replacing DLC. I won't lie, I reacted badly upon seeing the dreaded world micro transactions, but they are very optional. Only one cannot be eared in game, which was suppose to be a pre-order bonus.

                        • Micro Transactions are an inevitable change to AAA games due to riding development, publishing, and commercial costs. Even so, there are right ways and wrong ways (from a design perspective) to add these into games. I like to point out guild wars 2 as an example of how to do it right. I think H5 did alright with its Micro Transactions. The people who want to spend hundreds of dollars on REQ's can go ahead, but the guys who want to pay very little, or nothing don't feel left out due to relatively cheap costs of packs, and the fact that you can earn them through gameplay. We have to make sure that companies don't go crazy with Micro transactions though. H5 is straddling a dangerous line by having power weapon cards available in Warzone. Just watch em.

                        • With the way warzone works, the micro transactions do not in any way help you win. You get enough good cards just by playing normally.

                        • It failed? Are you blind? Lol, it's halo... People are gonna buy it regardless of the microtransactions. I bought it just for the story alone although it was somewhat underwhelming. The controversial req system I can deal with. Opening packs is obviously addicting a hell but I enjoy the hell out of it.

                          • Why the hell are people even posting in this thread defending Halo from this idiot? 1. He plays on PS, his opinion has no merit. 2. He can't/or won't play the game himself without looking up reviews, which makes me think he can't form opinions himself. 3. Why am I posting in this thread? 4. This is bait and i fell for it. 5.f[b]uck[/b]
