    • @hrthrhs
      @hrthrhs หลายเดือนก่อน +13

      I think he's grown soft so dances around the main issues to not risk annoying his fan base.
      The main reasons Halo has gone to sh*t are dicey reasons to talk about:
      1) The enhanced mobility makes the game appeal less to the more casual gamers, so the fanbase and community cannot grow as large as old Halos. Can't have your non-gamer housemate join in on your Halo Infinite 'lan' sesh (and therefor be introduced to the franchise) if they get slaughtered because they can't figure out slide, the grapple hook, and the general momentum based gameplay, quickly enough.
      2) The story in Infinite is garbage. It's an emotional tale and that's not what we want from Halo, regardless of how hard we squint or make excuses for. Give us back our political intrigue and world shattering story events.
      3) Go back to a linear story. Can't have as many biomes nor tell a fast paced story like Halo 3, in an open world setting.
      All 3 of these points will annoy half the Halo fanbase, and Act Man doesn't want to risk that. Plus it's as if he has to shill for 343/HS, so he's talking about the HS reveal trailer like they actually saying points of substance, when all they said was "lOok aT oUr gWaPhicS" and completely ignored all the issues we've had with Infinite.

      “This is how Halo ends, not with a bang but a whimper.”
      This shouldn’t really be a surprise tbh. The studio literally exists to make Halo games for money. They’re never going to intentionally end Halo with a banger finale because then the studio wouldn’t have a reason to exist anymore. The only way it ends is from a lack of interest for a new game leading to the next game getting cancelled and the studio shutting down

    I admit, I'm baffled by this video and how positive it is. Good for anyone who is happy, but Halo Studios is literally just 343 Industries with a new name. The "leadership" and the "devs" are largely the same people but in different positions. Further, UE5 means "pretty graphics", but little else until they actually make a product and we see how it plays and what the story and such is. There are numerous "pretty" games in UE5 that are bad games, or that run poorly with stuttering and fps issues because of problems with the engine. This is just them trying to change the name so people don't associate them with massive failure of 343 industries in the future, and there is no reason to be excited about this "new chapter" unless they release an amazing game on par with what Bungie used to make.

    • @meurumtrain4747

      It’s not the looks it’s the description. Over these last few years slip space has been described as hard to work on and with contract hiring made things difficult.
      Unreal is an engine described as easier than most and has tools that help developers. They described that it’ll be easier to produce content on this but we will see. If it’s any consolation look at Fortnite. It has TONS of content and that uses unreal engine.

    • @Zacvh1

    • @mattshelton7423
      @mattshelton7423 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Not about the engine itself, more about the fact that the devs aren’t having to learn a new system and are getting time back to work on the game, on top of now being able to use tools they’re more familiar with instead of having to make their own as they went.
      The result is the devs getting more time to focus on quality game work instead of fighting a new engine and the quirks that come along with that.
      Imagine trying to build a house but you have to make all your tools from scratch versus getting a top of the line Snap On full garage set. Which house is gonna be good quality, which one is gonna be bad quality? I think it’s pretty obvious.

    • @pavma7
      @pavma7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The diffrence is UE is an industry standard, so everybody that works on it, knows how because the person worked with the engine before the slipspace engine was made while they developped the game. Imagine building the kitchen while you're cooking😅
      And the engine was a mess, if you chamged something in the code you broke another thing.
