Halo is such a powerful franchise. I don’t know, but I feel like it’s more reluctant to die. The studio is so explicitly ideological that it seems inevitable though. Man, it’s crazy how widespread this infection is. I’m actively mourning the loss of CDPR, RIP.
@@fierce8943 Yeah stuff like this doesn't really just "die", even if it flops it can be brought back later... but it's sad not to see it running in its full potential right now for incredibly useless reasons. They have the money to hire whatever talent they want, they have the tech to make whatever kind of game they want, they have so much to draw from and a huge fanbase excited for it, but they're going down the same lame ideological route that nobody in the fanbase actually benefits from.
A corporate western millennial female with non-binary flags and gender identifies in the bio making a product for younger males not born like them. Good luck
I saw a post of a CEO dude defending the new Dragonage assuming that players wanting pretty female characters are incels. Its not thaaaat important to me, but personally I like playing as an absolute mountain of a man. Gears of wars, barbarians from Diablo, that kinda shit. I dont understand why these companies want ugly, sensitive and often gay characters instead of seeing these characters as the fantasy they are, allowing us to play as something we will never be in reality... In my fantasy I want to be MORE
Interviewer - So, what can you tell us about Veilguard? Corrine - I've always wanted to see myself represented in an RPG - Yes, but what about the game itself? - I think that everyone should really feel themselves in a game. - What? - What? 😂
She looks like the definition of dei hire lol the purple hair just tops it off, we'll have to wait and see what they start putting out and how they act on twatter lol Anyway keep em coming
@@slyaspie4934 We're replacing old out of touch execs & higher ups who spent the last decade shoving monetization into our games for profit, consequently f*cking them up - with out of touch ideologues and activists who are gonna spend this decade shoving DEI into our games for profit, consequently driving the last nails in their coffins. Uuughh.
dead Spartans in infinite! why were there dead Spartans in halo infinite? all there should have been is a radioactive hole, that's one of the main reasons why spartans are always listed as MIA not KIA.
So the leads for Halo Studios were the same 343i people that tanked Halo. What gives? A tinfoil tells me it's actually because of the contract system they want to fully implement, which former 343i head Bonnie Ross had partially, in order to keep her line of collusion. This is also why the new Halo Studios "Chief of Staff" has an open hiring page on LinkedIn now. Slipspace Engine were made by contractors, but thanks to the mismanagement of Bonnie Ross & co, there were no documentation to support its continued use. This is why they're now switching to Unreal too, even though Slipspace is still good to use.
I completely disagree about UE5 it’s an unoptimized mess, that devs WILL NOT even try to optimize. Silent Hill remake is a stuttery mess that runs like ass on on $1000+ Gpus. I despise the fact so many devs are switching to this crap, and it makes me wonder if some back room dealing are going on to use this horrible game engine. Aside from that I’m with you on everything in this video, and it’s just further proof that modern gaming is dead
15:10 Bro wtf this is so corporate that it feels like I'm reading something equivalent to grocery store stockers having to make sure all the items are uniformed and neatly lined up on the shelves and everything is in its proper place and nothing stands out to much or gets out of order so on and so forth.
I mean it may not be that much of a difference but at least they got rid of the old leadership who kept trying to reach a “broader audience “ by following trends and make they own version of halo
I am not giving this a chance; I’m betting they are going to draw more from the Halo show with our luck. Halo 4 was decent in terms of campaign, but they have constantly soft rebooted the series to the point they invalidate every single story decision I remotely cared about from the Bungie games to their rebooted universe in 4, once Cortana became Skynet in 5, it was all over from there.
Why learn UE5 to be a developer when we could show them our unique skin color/hair color/sexual orientation and get paid even more to be the boss of the developers? 🧠
They will never make a good "Halo". The biggest tragedy is that they could actually make a good game with the team they had for Halo 4. Why is anyone happy about having people work on a game series they dont want to work on while their entire history is that of intentionally dragging the franchise through the mud. This is only bad news for 343 shills, this is bad news for people who liked playing halo up to this point, this is not really any kind of news for those of us who checked out of this disaster after Halo 4.
when all this big corpos burns to the ground. maybe then we gonna start getting good games . until then we can play old games that is still legendary and indie games that produces amazing games
You're right, we don't know this lady who is now in charge of hiring. But....when is the last time someone with pronouns and gay flags in their bio were not there to push their message? Identity ideology drips off this bio. So forgive us for having zero faith in the future of Halo Prove us wrong.
not to mention basing infinite on an enemy from a lazy cash grab of a game that no one wanted and the majority of halo fans never played. halo wars was a BS vanity project only made because it was the original idea for halo, right up until they realised that was a stupid idea and evolved combat instead! halo wars 2 was only made to try and make bank on the name of a vanity project! I just purchased kelly gays halo epitaph a couple days before the halo studios announcement and I'm now wondering if that was a wasted purchase? is the story going to be even more bastardised now? I fear halo is dead!
A lot of people enjoy halo wars, yea some people didn’t like the RTS style but they appreciated halo branching out to other genres and expanded the universe, not to mention u did have that fanbase that wanted to expand the story of the spirit of fire
Didn't 343 have 3 rounds of layoffs as well as hire all new leadership? Its not the same studio my guy, you need to research the topic a bit. At the end of the day, they haven't produced a game yet so only time could tell. I just think you have some uninformed criticisms
, sorry man, but you're the one ill informed. Yes, they removed a lot of ppl, but go further and see who those ppl are. They were replaced with ppl arguably Worse than the ones they replaced. There is very little hope for Halo's future, sadly. Not to mention, they left a Lot of ppl employed that were the problem. One of the top dudes doesn't like Guns! 😂😂
@@yaboijosh2645 you're calling me ill informed then spouted absolute nonsense at me 😂 please explain who they hired that are worse than the people before, and please don't go reaching for the woman with red hair every drifter youtuber is profiting off of. Also I had to do a lot of digging to find this person you were talking about. The guy's name was Nick and the full tweet he put out was about him disliking modern guns but halo being super sci fi gives it enough separation to where he doesn't have an issue. But I'm assuming you didn't look into anything and just say what your grifter overlords make a big stink about.
@@Meltdownlv100 how is it a big stink? The guy shows that he is bothered by guns and shooters even in fictional settings. And that he struggled with Halo. The only thing making it possible to work thru it was the separation thru sci-fi. You eat that shit up and that's that? You don't see how stupid the concept is? You don't see the issues of when that separation is not enough? You don't see the problem with having an issue with guns in a fictional setting in the first place, completely hindering your ability to give it 100% when it comes to making your game have the best guns, and the best mechanical and audio design FOR those guns and for action setpieces caked in guns blasting at one another? You talk a big game here about "grifter this" and "research that" but you didn't even watch the f*cking video 😂 And you pop that qualifier in there too about the DEI lady not being relevant. How is she not relevant? Do you have ANY argument at all to back up what you're saying with anything at all of substance, or is that all you got? It's not relevant because "all the grifters are profiting off of her"? It's off limits, can't talk about the big red flag in the room specializing in the one thing f*cking up our media and even making SBI go into hiding 😂 like damn that's one hell of a Kung Fu technique. "Hey this big problem here? IRRELEVANT. Only grifters talk about it" Not gonna work around here. 🤷♂️
@@TheDezembro have you ever worked a job in your life? You don't have to love everything about what you're working on to have a good impact on a job. Not all cops like guns, not everyone in the military love war (let alone their own government),ect. A guy not liking guns who is a producer on halo infinite doesn't suggest anything. Also, you don't even know what his job was. Please tell me exactly was job entails if you think it hinders his ability do his job. I watched half your vid an saw many inaccuracies which led me to believe you didn't research a thing. Why would I grant you all my time watching a video when it's clearly brittle foundation? As for the DEI hire, I didn't say it wasn't relevant. The claim the other person made was that they hired more people worse than the 343 devs. I already heard about this lady but if that is the only person that anyone can link to being a problem, but not all the other hires, goes to show you all parrot each other without looking into anything at all. I didn't even neccesarily call you a grifter but you latched onto it pretty hard so that says something
@@Meltdownlv100 I didn't say you HAVE to love what you're doing. Again, watch the video if you want to talk about it, otherwise, this is *useless*. Why should I even bother replying to a goddamn thing when i already stated everything in the video. HE'S A PRODUCER. The receipt is IN THE VIDEO. Strong emotions and strong leanings, including intentions ABSOLUTELY MATTER in the direction of a game or any other project, if you're too blind or lazy to go look up the many examples of these kinds of flops across the Entertainment Industry, then inform yourself, before hopping in here, seeing HALF a video, claiming there's inconsistencies which you don't even back. And then assume the rest of wtf I'm saying, imply I'm a grifter, and then drop a pointless quirky little sentence about me latching onto YOUR OWN f*cking words.
