Halo 6: Should 343 replace Brian Reed?
Considering how bad Halo Escalation and Halo 5's story are, do you think he should be fired?
-
3 RepliesI get that the story is messy and all but can someone explain to me why everyone is hating this games story? It was a lot better than H4's.

Imagine Christopher & Jonathon Nolan writing a Halo game!! :0 12/10
-
Microsoft should replace 343.
-
343 should be fired. Id rather see the series die than see all these garbage games come out.
-
3 RepliesI think they should get someone better than both, considering Staten's writing was never really top tier either.
-
Just get Eric Nylund to do it. He should know what he's doing.
-
Absolutely. Show him the door and do not let him back ever again. Halo 5's story was atrocious. He needs some serious lessons in quality writing.
-
And who the hell is left besides Reed we all know Sclerf works for Bioware now up in Edmonton where they make their single player RPG's
-
He only wrote three issues of escalation and I was -blam!-ing dumbfounded and confused why the hell did he kill off black team?

Halo 5 might also be a victim of the Mattrick era too. A big problem is that there are people that believe Halo is a cinematic universe on par with Star Wars that can have Xbox TV shows, comic books, novels, and anime crap. The problem is 1) Halo's not -blam!-ing [b]Star Wars[/b] 2) The story has never been good enough to sustain that and 3) Halo 4 and Halo 5 were built around players having digested all the EU rather than (properly) using the EU as an extension outside of the games. For those of us that played Halo in 2001 there has been a noticeable crash in the quality of the games. We've gone from "Game of the Generation" contenders to "GOTY" contenders to games that aren't coming close to being even considered as one of the best releases of the year. Part of it is simply that nothing can last forever. Microsoft probably accelerated the process by releasing too many Halo games too quickly. Times change. You can only go to the same well so many times. I think what's most noticing is that the games aren't even as polarizing as they use to be. With Reach and Halo 3 you'd get God knows how many threads arguing how they aren't as good as the last game. People were passionate about Halo. Now they're not even making those posts. People just don't care like they used to.

The story in post ce halos is shit. Staten got canned from bunghole becuase his story sucked if that tells you anything.
-
Replace him with john cena
-
11 RepliesI think they need to scrap the whole "Chief and Cortana are in love with each other" angle that they seem to be going for. Just my opinion.
-
4 RepliesIf Staten's available, I'd be disappointed if they didn't go for him.

6 RepliesI read the third option as Joseph Stalin at first

3 Replies[quote]Yes, replace him with Joseph Staten [b]and/or Eric Nylund.[/b][/quote]This would fix everything wrong with the Halo franchise's story at the moment.
