I miss halo when it was actually halo.

Don't you guys? Halo 5 is a good game but it just isn't the stuff many people who got into OG halo want. Classic halo was simple and minimalistic. 343i halo is complex which isn't what halo was in terms of gameplay. Even the art style is complicated now, call it detailed oe whatever but it doesn't look appealing just a shiny mess. Who else feels the same way? Current Halo just isn't the game I got into to. [quote]OH GOD THE NOSTALGIA! I LOVED THOSE DAYS! Problem with 343 is that they put story ahead of gameplay. - No forge at launch. - Gameplay is too fast paced (343 are trying to appeal to COD fans) - Smart scope has the same aesthetics of ADS - Barely any playlists - 24 free maps we were supposed to recieve are only forge maps. 343 never specified this as they knew the free maps would be a selling point. I agree with the art style reason. Every Halo game has its own unique style however 343 got lazy and just recycled Halo 4's one.[/quote] ^^-BezerkLlama Edit: Halol 5 is now 9th in the charts, dropping off quickly. Now Halo 2 back in the day was top for like a year and halo 3 1st or 2nd for 3 years! That is saying something. Oh and before people say there are more games now, guess what? When destiny and -blam!-ing gta and madden have a higher population it isn't because their are too many games releasing (exampled games are old or not mega titles like Halo). Halo 3 was 9th in 2012 to 2013.... Shows how lackluster halo 5 is. https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/forums/6e35355aecdf4fd0acdaee3cc4156fd4/topics/halo-5-9th-most-played-game-on-xbox/e78b13e1-4001-4db7-8f82-2b7a491d5649/posts?page=4 It has also sold the least out of any halo game. Halo 3 sold more when less 360's were out than xbones. Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jWyFIbl9BP0

  • I think the multiplayer is going on a good detection. It's a little faster then traditional halo but due to the time to kill you can still run away or win the fight. Your 100% right about the aesthetics, 343i has made it to complicated and futuristic. One thing that I always loved about halo was the simple almost modern looking aesthetics. The campaign is way worse then any thing bungie ever did. I saw a kotaku article and it explained the problem perfectly, halo doesn't feel heroic any more. Nothing you do feels heroic and they've completely changed characters from what they were in the bungie era ex: they've made Halsey a mad scientist that everyone hates. Overall I think the multiplayer is great but 343i needs to improve their future campaigns and cutback on the aesthetics.
