Farewell, Ashen One. Let the flaymes goide thee.
Nintendo is the only company that still puts out Triple AAA games featuring whites. However, there was recently an announcement about how Nintendo was going to start diversity hiring soon, they basically pledged to hire a larger percentage of women in leadership roles. Go ahead and assume Nintendo is heading in the same woke direction.
Quick review for the campaign.
No nigger characters in whole story, if there are niggers they are either confirmed KIA, MIA, in audio logs only, or nameless marines.
Don't recall other leftist drivel shoehorned in other than the emasculated nature of life in the unsc(space futurism makes us "better people")
Best 343 made halo by a mile not as good as halo 2 but it tried. I enjoyed it more than halo ce overall but that is mostly the age on halo ce.
Campaign is maybe 20 hours for a full clear if you use a guide for audio log collectables. I hear tell of people being able to steam roll just story missions and beat the game in 5 hours on any difficulty.
I could write a dissertation on this game and its place in the franchise but I'll just say my criticisms outweigh my praises but my praises outweigh halo 4 and 5 combined.
Halo 2 anniversary multiplayer maps on MCC still look better.
Bonnie ross and kiki wolfkill should have been fired a decade ago when they drove away talent before H4s launch, will they be pushed out now after making a 180-200 million dollar game for ~$600M? God I hope so.
Play Splitgate. It scratches that itch, and then some. Seems free from globohomo so far.
Picked up the MCC a few months ago, have been enjoying it. Never knew about Infinigger until all the gaming channels suddenly have play throughs of it. Just knowing it's a modern AAA game makes me automatically not want play it. Thanks for letting us know to avoid it.
I hear the campaign starts with hours of boring grey corridors.
Nah, the forerunner architecture in this game is the best 343 has ever made and is by virtue of their inspiration from bungie games actually the best designs for the aesthetic we have had yet.
It does get a bit into hallway simulator territory because of the open world nature of the game they don't want players to pass outside and back inside in one mission like was common in old halo games. This only becomes noticeable in the final mission.
I will say that I hope this shuts up the shitheads begging for open world halo games, this should be the only one unless the franchise survives long enough to render an entire ring as an open world, that, or we go to the other ark.
And not a single nigger.
They had to create the spartan academy and that character after the riots last year because the actual campaign has 0 niggers in it; hell, they even lightened the skin tone of the brutes.
Just one of the reasons I don't fuck around with modern video propaganda bullshit. They're not video games anymore, they are indoctrination software. Complete with other added features such as sucking your wallet dry even after your initial purchase, invading your OS's ring 0 and even more DRM hoops to jump through, not giving you any physical media, cutting you off for criticizing or going against the narrative ... this list goes on and on.
Well, there's all those reasons, plus the fact that I'm just old now. I've made this elaborate RGB CRT TV plus emulator box setup thinking I was going to spend all day and all night playing some old games. Since after the first two weeks of having it, it's just been collecting dust. Had more fun modifying the CRT TV for RGB input and setting up the emulation environment on the PC than I apparently do actually playing the games.
Pretty cool technical ability. I wish games weren't tethered to constant patches and updates that required connection to a server. It was nice when you were given a disk and could play the game on or offline.
It's not even made by the same people. They'll never achieve the same level of quality as the old games.
