This video was meant to be part of a much bigger presentation which is taking longer than it should. The info here was becoming obselete so I share it now. Get Frank Oconnor off Halo.
He had no business being Hired by 343, he fucked up all the time under Bungie, Marty O'Donnell himself saying that Frank O'Connor never proved himself worthy of working on Halo, he is a open Sexual Deviant and a know racist even by some of the lower members of the development team that where at 343 before he joined that and his public comment on open form sites about his Love of Scat Porn, Stuffing Woman with Pie and Bouncing on their Boobs, Him say to Female Fans to Bring their Boobs so He can Sign them, and His Anti Semitic and Islamic Comments Saying that Only Muslims Beat Children to Death and that it was an Epidemic!
Another great video. If the Halo TH-camrs like Blitz, HaloFollower, ShaunW and many others had your level of fair criticism then the game might actually get some serious changes. Instead we just get more “you won’t believe what they added to halo infinite” every single day from them
From halo to boruto every childhood memory of mine that's been ruined is because of youtube shills either constantly speculating better and more interesting things then the game/manga/movie/etc story will ever be to just straight up shilling for the companies to keep the grab bags interviews and being flown out like a Instagram model going
They are the reason everyone was so hyped for infinite in the first place. They told everyone 343 has changed and they listen to us now. But it was all a fucking lie. And they are still making videos like "HALO IS BACK, 343 IS LISTENING GUYS" 343 has to pay these people off to not actually say the truth here. 343 can't handle criticism and will block people for it. we aren't entitled for pointing out the truth.
While Blitz has the same title like "guess what they added?" He routinely shits on 343s decisions. He probably has the most air judgement out of pretty much any big halo youtuber because most others fall on either the "Halo is amazing and great" or the "halo is fucking shit and will NEVER be good again" I find him refreshing because he knows how to point out good things AND bad things but of course because he didnt just decide to shit on Halo like everyone else and actually decided to give a fair critisicm, everyone calls him a shill.
Where did you go ItsDw232? We need your honest feedback for Season 4! You can now customize dead Spartans with cross-core customization that is UNAVAILIABLE for your Spartan avatar you pay money to customize! Infection is fun, but they ruined Last Spartan Standing. Cross Core has only been applied to specific coatings, not all coatings as promised, and the only hope now is Forgable AI in Season 5. STILL ZERO % ACCEPTABLE WATER OR WORLD PHYSICS! The guaranteed recurring theme of Halo Infinite from day 1 launch of EVERY single season is, NEXT season's gonna be the return to form, NEXT season will deliver what's promised...until the next day 1.
343i's LAST chance for Halo will be with Unreal Engine 5, its the one remaining hope for this studio, and if they blow their chance, cut the cord forever, and give Halo to a new developer already.
They won't because the harsh truth is: Microsoft is EQUALLY to blame for Halos fall from grace as the 343 management. Who do you think had the idea to make Infinite a Free to Play Live Service? Here's a hint: It wasn't Bonnie Ross.
If Microsoft cannot admit their own decisions that contributed to the current state of this franchise, they will keep 343 even if unreal engine 5 halo fails.
343 reminds me of the Human Resources team at my company. We have a full staff of people over there. They all drive nice cars and dress well, but if I need to go over benefits or anything HR related, I have to call the hot line. Basically everything is outsourced and we don’t know what the fuck they do over there. Complete joke.
I doubt I'll ever really feel a passion for Halo's story again unless there's a full-blown retcon of 343's content. Even if they try to go in a better direction, it'd all still be built on top of a pile of shit that they're too proud to cut out of the picture completely. Chief is still asleep on the Dawn until that happens.
Their future plans (the endless) in theory sounded like absolute horse crap. Which would top over their existing garbage. They planned to ‘retcon’ the main villain. And I’d assume these ideas funnel through Frank O’Connor and his idiot team. As much as we’d want to change the past. We’re stuck with 343s garbage. The best they could do is shut this whole thing down and stop working on halo. They should be held responsible. But instead are given a huge pay check.
@@itsdw2323 Retcon Atriox is THE STUPIDEST IDEA EVER CREATED! The only good 343 era villain everyone wanted to play against in Halo Infinite wasn’t a boss fight and The Endless is an abysmal substitute.
@ItsDw232 bruh they basically retconned half the lore from the first trilogy and retconned the entire story for the show they don't give a fuck about being like 4 5 and infinite was all a dream
Loved the ending lol. Great video, I don't generally watch videos like this I normally just listen while I play another game but from what I saw while alt tabbing the editing was pretty cool I gotta say. You summed up everything pretty good. One thing I find strange is how so many people say exclusively the management at 343 is the problem. The guy that said 'Halo is competitive at its core and always has been' is as far as I'm aware not part of management. The community manager who regularly mocks critics is not part of upper management either. Frank the plank as I call him needs to go. Mr. Halo has always been competitive needs to go. Both of them show a lack of understanding or will to respect what Halo was when they inherited it. It would be like if I worked at a gardening store and said 'oh yeah computers are our specialty, we've always been all about computers' I'd be fired on the spot. Sadly though in the end I don't see anything changing. 343 only cares about forcing their own narratives and making a quick buck that has become especially evident to me ever since Halo 5 (remember that godawful REQ pack video?) At this point I hope Microsoft fires everyone at 343 and disbands the company. They knew what they signed up for, they knew what they were getting into. Shut down 343. End Halo. Enough is enough. Stop violating its corpse and let it go. So sick of fanboys treating 343 like some small indie company full of underpayed hobbyists. This is a professional company but they act like morons. No more excuses.
Absolute Facts! I’m working on Frank. I’m still uncovering how much damage he’s actually done and it’s deep. That man needs to go. He’s jus accumulating a fat salary for hiding. Wtf is he even doing ?
@@BrokenCircle1 Hmm. It says he’s fascinated with her scholarship of Frida Kahlo and her interest in photography. What’s up with that ? Bouncy castles ? Sounds about right after the retarded crap Iv seen from him ‘yet. So far I’m aware of how bad he fumbled the lore. He doesn’t know what he’s doing.
I’m really glad I’m not the only one noticing the forced diversity. It’s so clearly intentional. And my point is furthered every time they give us a stupid BLM or LGBT or women’s nameplate
Not sure about the nameplates, torn between it being ham fisted or a decent gesture. But yeah the forced diversity is so disingenuous. Like if you want diversity, give us real characters that actually have business being people of color or women.
@@trogo3402 nobody cares about someone’s skin color being different. Stop painting it that way. You’re being disingenuous. I don’t like it when game developers include real life political movements and symbologies into their games.
@@trogo3402 nobody is against basic human rights. Stop painting it that way. You’re being disingenuous. List some “basic human rights” that aren’t granted to black people. And if you can, I’ll agree with you.
How is Halo woke? There were always female Spartans, female marines, dating back to the first halo book and first game respectively. Chief has always had emotions, again since the first book and the first game, and he had them in halo 2 and 3 as well, so no, he's not being "emasculated". Infinite has a much slower story so, he has more time to talk about them. And Chief and Cortana is not and was never a "love story", its a chemically castrated man and a robot, the only "love" that they have is one of companionship, just because its a man and a woman who care about each other doesn't make it romantic love. But yeah halo has had pretty rough management for a good while now, 343 has never really found their footing due to them having a rotating door of staff, and the fact that it's a very different landscape than 2007. Games are more expensive to make and take more people/time to create, which leaves more room for error especially when it comes from the top. 343's issues have always been structural, not cultural. And trying to bring politics in this discussion is absurd.
Yeah the chemically castrated man archetype and his ai emotional support was never core to halo, purely 343 drivel in an attempt to mischaracterize their own characters and they succeeded. Just because mc had expressed emotions in ce doesnt mean he was always this whiny and depressed doomer the way 343 wants to portray him to be, theyre basically two different characters, bungies mc and 343s "mc". And yeah the romance sub plot was very much a thing its obvious to children what 343 was trying to do back in halo 4. This drift is even larger when comparing bungies novels to 343s novels
It would be amazing if halo 4- infinite was just a dream, and chief wakes up with cortana and starts kicking ass again right where halo 3 left off. You are totally right. It is pretty much impossible for halo to be halo again. Thanks to the T rating, we are now playing a kids game. Pretty fucking pathetic.
To be fair 4 and 5 gameplay wise (Not referring to campaign) were decent games. Halo 4 has at least some kind of a decent story going, but 5 just shat all over that.
@@megaman37456 Yeah I kinda messed up. I should of said 5 - infinite. Halo 4 isn't to bad and I do still play it from time to time. 5 is just god awful though and cortana becoming the villian just ruined everything. The game play was good like you said but the story was no bueno.
I disagree with two things 1. I think seeing atriox beat chief in a fight was pretty cool. Chief in the games at least has almost never lost a fight (not counting the didact cause 1 chief won but also the didact had bs telekinesis powers) , the dudes always won. Having him lose adds a sense of risk “like oh shit chief isn’t always unstoppable, this atriox guy is gonna be a really serious threat and tough fight, someone who is on chiefs level” GRANTED, it would’ve worked more if atriox was the actual villain. It would’ve been like in Devil May Cry when Dante, who is almost unstoppable, gets his shit kicked in for once during the beginning of DMC5. That and I don’t think having slightly more female characters in the spotlight is crazy. Halos always had female characters that could kick ass especially in extended universe shit like in the books and stuff. While im tired of the whole cortana and chief story and I think cortana becoming a villain is completely dumb, seeing chicks be in position of power in the games i dont think is dumb or woke especially when there have been just as many male character in the spotlight throughout halo if not more. Now if every halo going forward is just constantly all women then sure. That and halos always had a pretty diverse cast. So idk where the whole forced diversity thing comes from in this community
Yeah i was gonna say, the points made are fair but I was kinds confused as to how this game was "woke" Believe me, I'm incredibly anti-woke but absolutely nothing about this game stood out to me as woke or even anywhere near it
I don't think Infinite in necessarily "woke", but it is definitely creatively bankrupt. Halos 4 and 5 had so much cool shit to experiment with, Infinite is just uninteresting.
I can't agree with Halo being "woke", but being creatively bankrupt yea %100 Legit question though, anyone think the slipspace engine could have been good if it wasn't so horribly mismanaged? Dope video dude, I'm subbing.
I agree with everything besides the opening scene to Halo Infinite. I would never expect Chief to just outright win against Atriox -- especially when caught off guard in the middle of a ship raid. Could things be written differently? Sure, but it would either play out a similar way, or you'd be writing a scenario way out of character for Atriox. It seems you are continuing to expect a flawless and impregnable spartan story with the equivalent of a Marvel movie script. I'm not saying 343's writing is good, but trying to beat down a decent scene because "Spartan big" is one of the worst takes I've seen.
I'm not sure if I want to give halo infinite another chance considering that 343i has continually failed the halo community for over a decade as well as in recent times even though they're trying to "fix" or work on content for infinite that's long overdue and should've been shipped with the content we have now at launch. Whatever the reasoning may be, this is completely unacceptable and embarrassing of what 343i and Microsoft's management treated the halo franchise. I'm not saying that I hate 343i as whole or it's frontline workers that help create the game since they have little to do with this negative ordeal, it's the fact that the management of 343i and Microsoft pushed to make infinite a live service game that entails egregiously expensive cosmetics/battle passes and a very underwhelming update roadmap that doesn't seem promising to a veteran halo fan nor is it on schedule definitely. To conclude, I find myself extremely unlikely to give them another chance since they had 2 games in the span of over a decade before halo infinite's release to learn from their failures. I also feel that a good majority of consumers that are easily susceptible to modern trends and the such are part to blame for this since they are contributing into big first and third party video game corporations destroying the image of what games used to be genuinely fun in their own ways, instead a game that begs for your wallet suggesting that you haven't paid enough for this game to be fun. This is one of the biggest reasons why I have doubts of 343i and Microsoft's management not catering to pre-existing fans anymore nor their capability to keeping fans happy and the consistency of halo infinite's roadmap content.
I really like the editing style in this video. The transitions, on screen text effects and the pacing really elevate the whole thing. I don't agree with everything you have presented here but this is really well done. If only other Halo youtubers put in as much effort to their videos!
Unreal Engine is and never was free or open source, idk way you were saying that, also the nanite technology is meant for cgi in movies not for anything in gaming
@@itsdw2323 no it’s not, free and open source means that the software is actually has an MIT license to be available to the public for commercial or non commercial use. Unreal you have to pay to see it’s source code or to use it commercially, same with unity
Man just give me stable halo infinite. Halo Infinite just crashes now on RX 7900 XT and RX 6700 XT since season 3 update. So I had to use a RTX 3070. Surround sound haa gotten worse also. It's even harder to hear enemies near you or right behind you. It just sounds like they are far away.
Yeah 343 recently had a full makeover so technically the team that made halo infinite and the last two seasons of the multiplayer are gone . And recently we have been getting more content than the last two years these last several months
I think that microsoft invested way too much money and contract people for halo infinite. I really don't get why this franchise is going downhill even though it shouldn't be performing like this at it's current state if it weren't for things almost always foreshadowing something next. This is very sad and unfortunate to see and hear about.
I’m pretty sure 343 were doin all the hiring. Microsoft’s jus allows the contractor policy. 343 were obviously abusing it because they have to many useless staff in house.
Do you think Bungie, having severed ties with microsoft after halo reach, could ever get halo back from them? If its not making money, has a low player count and constant staffing issues, the franchise is probably a lot less lucrative to them than it was in 2011. Having made destiny 1 & 2, they would be pretty much ready to create a modern day true halo sequel.
@Ion Force I'm so tired of people not even doing the slightest research on this matter. Bungie signed away all rights they had on Halo to Microsoft. They can't buy them back because M$ isn't looking to sell them. Secondly, there isn't a single OG Halo dev left at Bungie, which makes them less qualified in this day and age to make Halo than 343.
I dont like this video because it paints everything as an unrealistic black and white... but I'm not going to dislike it either because there are some good points. Also presentation. The entire last chapter was the best chapter and should have been at the start as a hook.
@@heftymagic4814 so woke just means shitty writing to you people now? I keep going back and forth between whose more tarded the alphabet brigade or yall and every time they jump up with a new gender yall jump up with dumb shit like this
Vailed criticism but calling halo the game woke is a super stretch women in power been a thing Since halo 2 and 3 were not being lectured about how much better women are than men for our play through I find this pretty okay
I would take off “woke” from the title, so people don’t use to as a buzzword to discredit you, otherwise solid video. Also you’re wrong about the campaign. It was amazing, didn’t you love all the feelsy wheelsy moments and marvel quirkiness? Don’t you want 343 to deconstruct him like Kratos in Ragnarok?
@@cobinmitchell6829 How exactly? By warning him of how people would act? Even when I said I agreed with him. Are you that dense? Are you denying that there are people like that who won’t even watch the video because they see the word woke or would simply show the videos title without using the context of the video to instantly discredit him?

Woke?
Finally someone else said it. The campaign is so bland and boring, idk why everyone hypes it up so much
It's not my favorite but I liked it. In some areas more than others, but yeah I liked it and I replay it fairly often
All they need to do for "campaign" content, is put in the Firefight Horde Mode. They already have the mechanism in the last levels of the Campaign.

I agree with everything besides the opening scene to Halo Infinite.
I would never expect Chief to just outright win against Atriox -- especially when caught off guard in the middle of a ship raid. Could things be written differently? Sure, but it would either play out a similar way, or you'd be writing a scenario way out of character for Atriox.
It seems you are continuing to expect a flawless and impregnable spartan story with the equivalent of a Marvel movie script. I'm not saying 343's writing is good, but trying to beat down a decent scene because "Spartan big" is one of the worst takes I've seen.
I'm not sure if I want to give halo infinite another chance considering that 343i has continually failed the halo community for over a decade as well as in recent times even though they're trying to "fix" or work on content for infinite that's long overdue and should've been shipped with the content we have now at launch. Whatever the reasoning may be, this is completely unacceptable and embarrassing of what 343i and Microsoft's management treated the halo franchise. I'm not saying that I hate 343i as whole or it's frontline workers that help create the game since they have little to do with this negative ordeal, it's the fact that the management of 343i and Microsoft pushed to make infinite a live service game that entails egregiously expensive cosmetics/battle passes and a very underwhelming update roadmap that doesn't seem promising to a veteran halo fan nor is it on schedule definitely.
To conclude, I find myself extremely unlikely to give them another chance since they had 2 games in the span of over a decade before halo infinite's release to learn from their failures. I also feel that a good majority of consumers that are easily susceptible to modern trends and the such are part to blame for this since they are contributing into big first and third party video game corporations destroying the image of what games used to be genuinely fun in their own ways, instead a game that begs for your wallet suggesting that you haven't paid enough for this game to be fun. This is one of the biggest reasons why I have doubts of 343i and Microsoft's management not catering to pre-existing fans anymore nor their capability to keeping fans happy and the consistency of halo infinite's roadmap content.
I really like the editing style in this video. The transitions, on screen text effects and the pacing really elevate the whole thing. I don't agree with everything you have presented here but this is really well done. If only other Halo youtubers put in as much effort to their videos!
Unreal Engine is and never was free or open source, idk way you were saying that, also the nanite technology is meant for cgi in movies not for anything in gaming
I use unreal. It is free and open source. And Nanite works for everything.
@@itsdw2323 no it’s not, free and open source means that the software is actually has an MIT license to be available to the public for commercial or non commercial use. Unreal you have to pay to see it’s source code or to use it commercially, same with unity
Awesome work new editing style too. I love it and the work you put out keep it up!
Man just give me stable halo infinite. Halo Infinite just crashes now on RX 7900 XT and RX 6700 XT since season 3 update. So I had to use a RTX 3070. Surround sound haa gotten worse also. It's even harder to hear enemies near you or right behind you. It just sounds like they are far away.
Yeah 343 recently had a full makeover so technically the team that made halo infinite and the last two seasons of the multiplayer are gone . And recently we have been getting more content than the last two years these last several months
unironically one of the worst fps games ever made.
Finally; a content creator that's actually worth a damn.
Appreciate man
Check out shredded nerd and the channels in his podcast
Absolutely true. I doubt that Halo can be saved.
$500 million budget to make this game BTW 😂
6 years in development!😂
Yup. Just zero faith in Halo, as long as its in 343i hands. I got better things to do.
We should just petition for Mr.beast to buy the franchise and hire a competent team. Lmao. Just kidding. Probs would be a stupid idea.
This Game was never going to save Halo I know it Before 343i showed us the first Trailer!
I think that microsoft invested way too much money and contract people for halo infinite. I really don't get why this franchise is going downhill even though it shouldn't be performing like this at it's current state if it weren't for things almost always foreshadowing something next. This is very sad and unfortunate to see and hear about.
I’m pretty sure 343 were doin all the hiring. Microsoft’s jus allows the contractor policy. 343 were obviously abusing it because they have to many useless staff in house.
Do you think Bungie, having severed ties with microsoft after halo reach, could ever get halo back from them?
If its not making money, has a low player count and constant staffing issues, the franchise is probably a lot less lucrative to them than it was in 2011. Having made destiny 1 & 2, they would be pretty much ready to create a modern day true halo sequel.
Idk the destiny series has also had lots of hard times . For example the latest storyline light fall was pretty mediocre
Bungie would arguably be worse than 343 is. Trust me when I say bungie is NOT the same company it was in 2010
@Ion Force I'm so tired of people not even doing the slightest research on this matter. Bungie signed away all rights they had on Halo to Microsoft. They can't buy them back because M$ isn't looking to sell them.
Secondly, there isn't a single OG Halo dev left at Bungie, which makes them less qualified in this day and age to make Halo than 343.
damn dude amazing video congrats, i totally agree. i am gonna share it as much as possible!
Appreciate it thanks
so incredibly based. Good work lad
Halo Reach more like “Gaylo : Breach.” another franchise sacrificed to a grooming agenda
Can u do a campaign review? I feel like a lot of TH-camrs were too positive
i couldnt agree more with you well said
I dont like this video because it paints everything as an unrealistic black and white... but I'm not going to dislike it either because there are some good points.
Also presentation.
The entire last chapter was the best chapter and should have been at the start as a hook.
Preach!!!!!
Halo Infinite sucks, but this topic has been beaten to death for over a year now.
Dolphin banged Elite lol
What was woke about infinite someone enlighten me
Nothing. This dude is fucking dumb
A few things
@@heftymagic4814 such as
good video
Female Spartan commander = woke?
MC getting stomped by Atriox too? Nah dude this ain’t it.
They ruined masterchiefs character and its personified in the first cutscene, so dumb
@@heftymagic4814 Nah
@@heftymagic4814 so woke just means shitty writing to you people now? I keep going back and forth between whose more tarded the alphabet brigade or yall and every time they jump up with a new gender yall jump up with dumb shit like this
Vailed criticism but calling halo the game woke is a super stretch women in power been a thing Since halo 2 and 3 were not being lectured about how much better women are than men for our play through I find this pretty okay
I would take off “woke” from the title, so people don’t use to as a buzzword to discredit you, otherwise solid video. Also you’re wrong about the campaign. It was amazing, didn’t you love all the feelsy wheelsy moments and marvel quirkiness? Don’t you want 343 to deconstruct him like Kratos in Ragnarok?
let the man speak! Woke is exactly what is wrong with half of the story in this new 343 adaptation of Halo.
@@cobinmitchell6829 I agree, just saying he should retitle so he doesn’t get discredited for using proper terminology.
@@r.e.z9428 don’t even say anything cause you discredit what needs to be said
if anyone thinks using "woke" discredits someone THEY are part of the problem
@@cobinmitchell6829 How exactly? By warning him of how people would act? Even when I said I agreed with him. Are you that dense? Are you denying that there are people like that who won’t even watch the video because they see the word woke or would simply show the videos title without using the context of the video to instantly discredit him?
I mean, mission replay is in the game. Also, Halo is woke because women?
so your video was the woke project?
How is Halo woke?!?? Lmao.
they removed male and female for the players spartan
This video is ass❤
