How much respect do you have Bungie as a game developer? Has it changed over time? If so, what events have affected your respect towards Bungie and why?
For me, I have respect for Bungie. They could have played it safe by continuing their development of the Halo franchise, however, they did not. Bungie instead are creating a whole new world for us to explore; a new game, that if it lives up to our expectations and the gaming communities predictions, could enter us into the next big gaming 'thing'.
My respect for Bungie definitely lessened since Halo: Reach. I found its multiplayer fun (for the most part), however, I was disappointed in how they unequivocally took a [b]dump[/b] on the Halo canon and just created a boring campaign with [i]terrible[/i] characters and character development. Please don't even get me started on how the let down the Halo community with how they ignored us post-launch.
Ultimately, I have a lot of respect for Bungie. Despite their failings with Halo: Reach (my opinion, bros), I have a new restored sense of respect in them due to Destiny.
What about you, Screw?

I've got respect for Bungie, but no respect for people who blame Bungie for an inconsistent canon. Nylund wrote stuff without asking Bungie so it is no surprise that Bungie's version of the story is different. And that Bungie as a "canon maker" stands over Nylund is beyond debate.
