I love seeing the old Bungie, always saw them as big teens that never really grew up in the way they acted, and that's what made them fun, it was great being able to see people in the industry not acting so formal compared to other companies, unfortunately those times have come and gone and so has that version of Bungie sadly, BUT that doesn't mean you cant look back fondly at this and enjoy those memories.
You can see how a lot of the magic was already lost by the time they moved into third third studio and expanded to over 200 employees, and then things just got progressively worse from there.
I miss these kinds of game developers who were passionate while also making good money at video games as the best they could deliver to their fans the morally correct way not just solely profits like it is with most first party games now and days. Most people now and days that are younger that weren't around during the bungie days of halo like I was, most likely will not look back to these once good times that worked for many fans that loved these games for many years. We now live in a modern era of halo with 343i at the helm not having halo what it used to be in terms of it's consistent gameplay experience that were in all of bungie's games up until reach despite some game engine changes, and many other factors that plays into why some people genuinely think that bungie did the halo games the best despite their small controversies that to me never majorly negatively affected the halo experiences I had with each bungie halo game. I mean sure, Bungie wasn't perfect with decisions they've made to halo, but the consistency of the gameplay, fun factor, and the small things that add up to the bungie games was virtually the same, or, if not, very similar regardless of the differences of each game which is something that bungie kept for good reason which 343i failed to capitalize on and forgot what was important of makes a halo game actually good and fun factor of the game that aren't just entirely monetized driven with a sense of greed that most corporate companies do now and days which is unfortunate. 343i should've focused on bringing back the bungie era ideologies and philosophies that help shape what made halo great in the first place instead of the formula of the halo franchise being significantly changed or reinvented unnecessarily. That is the biggest reason why I'm not a fan of what the leadership and management of 343i did with the halo franchise for past decade since Halo 4. The halo franchise could've been something much bigger but unfortunately we will most likely not see the light of that since the leadership of 343i and Microsoft held this franchise back and didn't take the necessary appropriate action to growing this franchise to it's maximum potential to dominating steam and Xbox player base numbers to sky heights for a long period of time and the fans genuinely enjoying most of the game that should've been present with infinite. But, oh well. It is what it is.
А ведь когда то все новые игровые компании выглядели так - коллективы из молодых веселых парней, объеденненных общими интересами и создающих шедевральные игры в индустрии. Всем бы компаниям быть такими же, как старые Bungie, вот только время уже не то - деньги правят балом (причем не только в игровой индустрии). Господи, я аж растрогался, пока смотрел эту документалку, спасибо вам ребята, за то, что подарили нам игры детства ))

i want this Bungie back 🥺
My bisexual Italian friend thinks so too.
Damn what I'd do to go back to this era we need to progress but I'd rewind time and enjoy these day's again.
The Myth years at Bungie were the pinnacle of PC gaming. I know HALO is the big beast everyone loves...but Myth I and II were so much better...

is that why... there's a dude in Myth that talks to a severed head...?
Halo la mejor saga de juegos :)
no fuckin way.. ling ling's head?
