A genuine question that bugs me, did Bungie ever embrace the idea of MLG/Esports with Halo? Did they ever attend competitive events or do interviews saying first-hand that MLG could be 'the future' for its games? When? Where? Who said it? Drop a comment or 2...

1 ReplyBungie has done a lot with and for MLG, but I've never seen anyone from Bungie say MLG is the future for its games. MLG is just part of their much larger community. With the amount of customizing options that were available in Halo, MLG definitely benefited. I'm not seeing this for Destiny. I worked for MLG during the '08 season on the Video on Demand team and I remember Bungie letting MLG do an exhibition game with the never before seen Halo 3 map "Blackout". I think it was Luke, but I was pretty busy and didn't have time to go all fanboy on whoever it was.
