It just felt plain, if there was biomes and maybe another type of enemy, (like flood or promethians) there wasnt an enemy to fill that hole. and i think open world is the worst part.
if Chief does come to an end he must go out with a bang like Johnnsan in Halo 3. Also the Spartan I think who should replace him is Jerome from Halo wars 1 and 2 he is a beast
"This ring is different" repeated every 10 minutes with 0 examples of how or why its different. Halo infinite is effectively a far cry reskin. The gameplay rocks but the campaigns story is effectively save the pilot, kill the brute, kill the harbinger. Early on it felt like it was gonna be something about how john has gotten old and tired of the constant war in his life. That was at least the vibe i got from his tone. But the story is big time butt cheeks hands down and doesn't explore that at all. I feel like the standard in gaming has gotten so low nowadays that people are ecstatic to be able to play something that is at least mediocre. The best part in the story is Cortonas message to Master Chief. But beyond that theres about as much character exploration as a book cover
There are many reasons why it's difirent than the other rings. Multiple monitors, cylexes, the rings reformation abilities along with the silent auditorium and the endless. Let alone all the lore related to The Flood.
I suppose you guys are right about the examples. I just got more sick of them saying it more than showing it. Just bugged me and I got passionate and exaggerated a bit. Is that so bad of me? Am I bad guy for being a little over passionate. Look I'm all for fun and games. But if you're gonna start attacking MY character then buddy you got another thing coming. Because if you're gonna come in here and raise logical observations at MY fanatical writings!? HOW DARE YOU!? Keep your occursed logic elsewhere oh wise one. Big man out ♂️
Sorry but that’s so reductive and just a stupid ass comment, this games story is really good as a story about the chief and escherum and it wraps up the shit with cortana pretty well
@@anguswaterhouse9255 okay Angus I'm honestly willing to hear you out. I'm not trying to say the game is horrible. But by the end of it I was heavily pickled and ready to bounce off the game. Perhaps I just didn't give it a good enough chance. I ran straight through the campaign because I wanted to experience it like a standard halo game, so my experience may very well be sub par because of that. What would you recommend I do differently upon replaying it to get a better feel of the game?
There is a reason Halo Infinite doesn't get the credit it deserves and that's because it doesn't deserve it the campaign is very lackluster very few objectives and what objectives it does have are very repetitive. 2nd very few vehicles I expected there to be a lot more vehicles in Halo Infinite because of it being open world 3rd. Very few weapons and it's just not the lack of weapons either the amount of damage the weapons due the amount of ammo they hold and the amount of extra ammo you can carry for them it's just pathetic. And 4th lack of biomes something that's been part of Halo since the very beginning don't get me wrong Halo Infinite had things in it I liked the graphics are good the weapon designs were good and I liked the addition of the grappling hook, threat sensor, and shield upgrade system but it could have been better a lot lot lot lot lot lot lot lot lot lot lot lot lot lot lot lot lot lot better I felt like the open world had so much potential and then they just didn't do anything with it
Yeah, I think the idea was at one time they intended to ADD on to the open world for DLCs, like either there were rumors of an Arbiter DLC or something like that, and it would make sense to add the other biomes in the expansions. However, all the development people in 343 got fired, so sadly we never saw it.
It’s the best thing 343 has put out, and the grapple for campaign is great fun. With that said - The environments and objectives are incredibly repetitive which is the worst thing. Everything about the atmosphere feels Halo except the feeling of wonder traveling around the Galaxy, and encountering wildly diverse locales. Halo CE recycled almost every level but still managed to place us on at least 5-6 completely different feeling locations..Halo infinite maybe has…3? Which are broadly recycled. Incorporating areas which felt totally unique would have been really nice. I thank them for finally getting back to an appropriate LOD for the feel. Just lacking in imaginative environments. It feels like nothing will compare to weird glowing pools on Keyes, or remember the feeling of being on high charity in “Gravemind” or discovering the ancient lost civilization that led to a religion on Delta Halo. Or even the eerie locations of the multilayer maps. They always felt engaging and unique in the first 3 games. That magic of environments has been lost since then in campaign and multiplayer. We need the art direction, and creativity that sparked the whole universe to begin with, along with that thematic ancient culture/ruin/religion meets alien/technology/ astronomy / futuristic. Halo feels like one of the greatest accomplishments of that since Star Wars and has lost it since the original Trilogy.
@@dVTHoR I had to look it up since it's been so long since I've played it, but The Ark from Halo 3 is probably my favorite Halo mission of all time. The location and visual design of that level is just burned into my memory
@@milkmanchannel1 Ark/Covenant back to back was a seriously powerhouse duo of levels. If it weren’t for Cortana being so annoying and lackluster, the ending the game would have been simply perfection. It was still phenomenal, but if they really had perfected a flood invested High charity level. Just wow.
You pretty much perfectly described how I feel about Infinite's campaign. The only thing I partially disagree with is retiring Master Chief. I don't think they should, but I wouldn't dislike it if they did.
@@MrFrootcakeOfficial I fully acknowledge that I'm probably in the minority with that. But if the next Halo really knocks it out of the park, my feelings may change
Please rewrite this script. Multiple instances you reiterate on core, fundamental information that all Halo players already know and drone on for unnecessarily long chucks of the video. We all know Halo's history as a franchise and how it trailblazed the idea of a console shooter just to fall into irrelevancy under 343i. Don't waste three minutes explaining this to Halo players. Your weak tone and neutral passiveness toward the subject rapidly becomes stale within the first minute. You're behind the curb so hard and your commentary is surface-level at best and repeats basic redundant information. "Halo Infinite was developed by 343i and published by Microsoft." We know. All of us know this. Stop including explanations of redundant core information that the viewer already knows. This is the video you *hopefully learn from* and improve.
Calling it the best feeling halo is such bs, it felt like something was a little off most of the time, didn’t feel bad, but a little off. And saying that it was the first halo to make you feel like a badass is ridiculous you literally take down giant scarabs and fight in insane large battles in those games aswell in 2 and 3 and even reach. I think the story and campaign was very fun but it still felt like there was so much missing, and felt so underwhelming for a game that took them 5 years to make and delay. Also saying chiefs story needs to come to an end right now is Ridiculous, yes he’s been in the games for 20+ years but I honestly think he should have a couple more games in him or atleast have a fully compelling story unlike “infinite” that really impacts the story of all the characters and humanity. It still feels like he isn’t finished with saving humanity even if he did it for a short while before. I personally think you’re just a casual fan that probably hasn’t play the games in awhile. Just wrote a script but didn’t fact check much. Just my thoughts though.
"They decided to make weapons have different roles... plasma deals more damage to shields, bullets deal more damage to health" This has been a trait in all Halo games, you're praising Infinite for doing the bare minimum
I almost agreed with you until you said Chief's story should end. Also open world does work, but it needs to be more like ODST. Not like what they did.
@@jhnyjoejoe69 i definitely don't expect a lot of people to agree with me on the chief. But like I said, I like the campaign of this game enough that I'm curious to see what he does next
This screams, "i wasnt around when the halo cultural revolution started but my parents were" kind of energy. Aka, you didnt grow up with what made Halo so important in the gaming sphere and your only comparison is what was released from when youve been around. It makes sense. But understand that Halo infinite is bottom of the barrel when it comes to halo. PS, take the playstation contriller out of the thumbnail lol. A video about a Halo gane should probably have a Xbox controller. Just saying.
@@milkmanchannel1 I'd have to agree with that. With what actually made it into the final game, I think just staggering the indoor/outdoor levels better would've made it a better campaign. Now, don't get me started about what COULD have been…
Infinite's campaign missions are the worst in the franchise which is saying something because they are pretty bad in Halo 5 as well. At this point praise for this abomination just suggests someone isn't really into the original Halo games, or at the very least doesn't understand why they are great.
In my opinion I really liked this campaign, and Cortana’s story from tyrant to realizing her mistake was good, I really hope there are people who stop criticizing like the lame “official” critics of the world and actually use their own feelings towards it.
@@JonathanTacoman I definitely expect to be mostly alone in this thinking. But who knows? Maybe if the next Halo is home run, my opinion might change...
Hi always had blood splatter effects. The real issue is, it's very little and unlike older entries, blood barely stains the environment and doesn't linger. You asking about it shows how little it really is. People don't even notice!^^' I guess it is to keep it T for teens while still giving somewhat of an additional hit registration feedback to the player - as little as it might be.
@@Rafinha_estraga_rabo I believe reach did that if I'm not mistaken. I would like a voice actor though. Generally not a fan of the whole silent protagonist thing unless it's gordan freeman
"it wa immediately ckear thia game qanst up to the same standard shalom fans came to expect" That opinion has been turned around by 2015. By 2016 most big voices in the community even turned their opinions around on the muktiplayer too. Halo 4 is regarded as one of the best stories in the series next to 2 and infinite.
The only thing I don't like about Infinite is how it feels with a controller, the aim-assist for me almost feels absent and and turning around feels stiff. If it was like on MCC then I would've played it more.
im not a huge halo fan or have nostalgia for it, halo infinite was my first halo game, and to me the controls felt great, the open world is fun building up ur tiny army
It all comes down to personal choice so everyone will have a different opinion. I’ve been playing Halo since its launch in 2001. I’ve always loved the campaign's and while things can always be done better, most of my greatest memories come from the first three instalments. In saying that, I love Infinite the most. It’s open world, it’s general gameplay. The mechanics, the story line. In my opinion a true masterpiece and I’m grateful for every game they give us regardless of any shortcomings.
I couldn't even push through the campaign with a mate, and co-op usually makes everything fun... it's dreadfully dull. -The open-world is grindy and generic in formula. -It visually looks grotesque, as any large expanse of area looks laughably bad. -The comedy is too forced. -The combat is average and stale. -The mission designs are totally forgettable and basic. -The vehicle physics are ass and most of the terrain doesn't even account for it? -I don't find the grappling hook to be particularly satisfying. -There's no life to this environment whatsoever... outside of birds which constantly get stuck on the environment. I can't even comment on the story because I didn't care. There's very little redeemable about Infinite's campaign. 5:00 there's a reason for that. Aiming is irrelevant and unnecessary for most guns. 6:20 this has always been a primary feature in Halo.
@@emittfuller6348 the campaign of halo 5 was cheeks. But honestly, for the little bit I played the Multiplayer, I really enjoyed it. But I pretty much did swat or fiesta like 99.9% of the time so I may not have the full picture

It just felt plain, if there was biomes and maybe another type of enemy, (like flood or promethians) there wasnt an enemy to fill that hole. and i think open world is the worst part.
I’m gonna play the campaign again, see how I feel with a fresh game and explore different routes to upgrade everything from scratch
Try with different weapon combos/tactics in the campaign. Hint: the infinite ammo skull ALSO gives unlimited abilities and boosts :)
Play without Grappleshot and you'll see how fun the campaign is.
