    I fail to see why he wouldn't introduce himself to Chief, like any soldier would and has in every other piece of Halo media.

    Framing on that space jump was horrible, the one shot approach is only going to be a disservice to this game's direction. Why would a Spartan need their neural interface to light up when they're on comms. New AI is forced cutesy, oblivious ditz, and it doesn't land. Ugly design too. What was...

    "When the Covenant discovered Doisac in 2492, the First Immolation had just recently concluded. At this time, the Jiralhanae were just rediscovering radio and rocketry, as well as the applications these technologies could have in warfare.[1] Ill-prepared for the Covenant's arrival,[5][10]...

    Which the Enduring Conviction is. Halo: Silent Storm has twelve Spartans use said Banshees to destroy four Covenant supply ships, whose nanolaminate plating is far better suited to taking plasma fire than the Titanium-A the Spirit of Fire sports. I have no reason to believe they would not...

    Yes, I would be, just like every single one of those Brutes surrounding Atriox was until literally five seconds after he stabbed his executioner. I'm supposed to believe all of them were ready to die on the cross for the Great Journey today, but then all it took was Atriox saying "but what if I...

    If I had never known a life outside of the Covenant and had been indoctrinated to fight from birth, even at the cost of my own life, for the promise of the Great Journey, no, probably not. Just like every other member of the Covenant we've seen, save for the ones who were told by their gods...

    What does any of that have to do with the Banished weapons looking like little more than bricks with knives on them? No, it showed us he was invincible, in the same shitty manner that these very three S-IIs were guilty of when they slaughtered twenty Elites in a way that made them look like...

    Halo Infinite

    True, but that is no way for the style of the series to develop. It needs new things that are good too in order to continue. 343 needs to learn why the old things were good and make new things following those rules. They can't remodel the Mark VI forever. "Vague" thematics is how design...

    Halo Infinite

    Every day 343 reveals itself to really be Bungie in a different skin. Who else is ready for Destiny 3? It is an improvement, but most of that improvement comes from the fact that they are, for lack of a better term, tracing over Bungie era designs because what they made on their own wasn't good...

    Gods, Heroes, and Empires

    There are a couple spots that seem nice, but I don't want to jump for a region before I have a faction in mind.

    Gods, Heroes, and Empires

    Not sure what god I would play as yet, but I'm certainly willing to participate. I had a lot of fun designing my previous faction, it'd be nice to give actual play another shot.

    Halo Infinite

    The art style at a general glance seems passable/okay, but nothing about it so far stands out as being anything iconic like in the older games. Meanwhile, the weird hexagonal poking bits in the environment aren't doing it for me, and all of the weapon designs have been mediocre to crap. Not...

    I am unimpressed.

    I remain cautiously curious until I see the gameplay. Armor looks better in the darker green, though.
  15. Draco

    Halo Infinite

    The key to my statement was "start with," as in the UNSC would begin by compartmentalizing the design that was already successful even further (see how the Spartan Laser was something that started as a vehicle based weapon for the Sparrowhawk in canon that was later miniaturized for troop use)...
