If you're an anal old school fan there are minor differences all over the place but they're ultimately superficial and the average player won't notice. For all intents and purposes they're the same games.

There are a few spots that are pretty dark and require the flashlight but overall it shouldn't be so dark you can't see enemies.

I remember when "this started on the back of a napkin" was a pretty prestigious thing. Praise for a small idea that blossoms into something bigger than it had any right to be. Something like that.

Not sure when that stopped being a thing.

We can't say for sure they're again abandoning a story with Infinite but that was 343's entire MO. 4, abandoned. 5, abandoned. Infinite? Maybe.

Enjoy it while you can, bother. It won't last.

As a Chiefs fan, the conflict is real cause, absolutely, fuck that guy.

"Hey, can you stop pretending my headcanon isnt canon?"

That's basically my point. Us old heads have romanticized all these things and it kinda misses the forest for the trees. The point is to bring in new players. They don't care about the minutia of Forerunner architecture or how sprint is a net negative. It's basically Reach. That's fine for newbies.

Kammy kinda beat me to the punch with his reaction video. I wanted to make one that wasn't so hyper critical and re-framed the conversation but he got there first.

I still want to and probably will because I want to add to that.

I think most people are like us so I want more content for those fans

What's worse is enjoying something yet framing it as bad.

It's my biggest issue with the bigger Halo YouTubers right now. They basically all enjoyed the demo yet every video is framed like there's this massive problem.

At the end of the day, is the game fun? Great. Everything else is secondary.

It's literally cheaper to invest in renewables. The rich are so fucking stupid.
