    "Buying XP boosts doesn't level your character because you dont actually level until you spend them" is like saying "Buying groceries doesn’t get you fed because you have to eat them first"

    based on a lot of things i saw from the director he REALLY believed the old Devil May Cry games were lame, and only HE knew what was cool now. He didn't deserve all the hate he got but he also was living in his own world. I'm glad you mentioned they update DMC to change the gameplay, because a lot of people play it now and seem confused why people disliked the gameplay. not realizing it's no longer the same. (they changed it to emulate the original games more)

      There is an early 2000's comedy called Grandma's boy, and the main character in that movie works for a video game company.
      The guy who made DMC reminds me of the main antagonist of that movie. A super edgelord video game dev who treats everyone around him like neanderthals.

    So writing this as someone who has never played any of the halo games. If that studio really wanted to write a game with a new character who was better than Master Chef. They should have made them, at least at the start, kinda shit. Have them be a spartan living in the shadow of the god like Master Chef. For that brawl, MAYBE let Spartan lock get a few good hits in, but ultimately lose. Then maybe near the end of the game after some character growth or something, let them do another friendly brawl in which spartan lock barely wins.
    This doesn’t necessarily diminish the power of Master Chef, but rather strengthen the connection the player has with this new character and make them feel as though they worked for it

    I'll admit, it can't really be a Warf Effect for the Chief if he ever loses to like one other spartan compared to the games where he's played completely like a badass. Master Chief is a great power fantasy but I find it more intriguing when there is someone who can best him. I enjoyed Infinite and how it started with him losing and left floating in space.

    To me, there is no "Halo 5: Guardians", jus "5: Guardians"! And I wouldn't mind, but there was a question on the Chase, in the Final Chase no less, where the question was "what is the name of the main character of the Halo Franchise?"! I got it right, obviously, but the Chaser didn't know (might have been Paul "everything gaming comes back to Nintendo" Sinha) and the team guessed - GUESSED - at "Jack"! Now, if they had said "John", I, myself, personally, would have given them that as he is "John-117" after all!
    And I can tell you that here in the UK, Marvel Avengers was marketed HARD! The ads were on A LOT! Everywhere! And it was a pretty dry release window as well, if memory serves, jus to top it all off!

    The thing I love about Halo 5 is it ends on a massive cliffhanger turning Cortana into the new big bad and it's pretty clear Halo 6 was going to be about the war against Cortana and her new army. Even though Halo 5 sold just as well as any other Halo game, Halo 5's reception by fans was so negative that the sequel doesn't directly follow up on that cliffhanger at all. The entire massive war and fallout from Halo 5 happens entirely off screen, in spin-off's, novels and exposition in Halo: Infinite. Plot wise Halo: Infinite is like playing Halo 7 except Halo 6 never actually happened.
