We screwed up Halo’s future. Not its time.to screw up Halo’s past.

People are huffing massive hopium if they think that 343, of all studios, is going to put out an UE5 game that isn’t unoptimized trash.
RightHandOfIkaros@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Yes, it is still 343. “Halo Studios” has most of the same people working at it as 343. Literally 343 wearing Mustache Glasses.
They changed their studio name because the 343 reputation was so bad, they needed to try to trick consumers into thinking the next Halo game wasnt made by them to get any sales.
BigDaddySlim@lemmy.world 5 months ago
It’s not 343, most of that leadership has left or fired. It’s Halo Studios now, game runs UE for graphics and the Blame! engine underneath for AI and everything else.

I'd rather Blam! be doing both.

Halo is such a hollowed out and rotten franchise.

If the pistol isn’t the same I’m not playing it

How many times is this game going to get remade…
fox2263@lemmy.world 5 months ago
I’m pretty sure this is the first time.
It was remastered in 2010ish for its anniversary.

How many time will people pay for it?

Might as well keep milking the old ones I guess, since Microsoft clearly are incapable or making good new entries :/
TheFeatureCreature@lemmy.ca 5 months ago
Good point.
ampersandrew@lemmy.world 5 months ago
It’s only the campaign, despite the fact that the competitive multiplayer was just as responsible for this game’s success back in the day. Split-screen is only supported on consoles and not on PC for some reason that I definitely cannot understand. And while it’s got online play, it surely won’t support LAN…in Halo…a game known for LAN parties.

This is a weirdo complaint but one thing I don’t like that some modern games keep doing is adding a lot of visual/texture noise by having a lot of details.
Sometimes its OK, but sometimes it gets difficult to tell what’s going on in the chaos of a fight. Combined with particle effects, reflections, and the DLSS or FSR or whatever and it gets to be a bit of an eye strainer.
Halos usually pretty good about strong enemy colors and easy to read room layouts but a few glimpses of this have me raising an eyebrow.
Omegamanthethird@lemmy.world 5 months ago
That’s a normal complaint. I thought Reach was peak esthetic for Halo because it was big recognizable variations in armor.
After that they made intricate armor variants that largely go unnoticed because they just look like a mess.

Giving it the old George Lucas treatment?

Hard Agree!
More != Good.
The added textures really take away from the reverent, almost divine nature of the ancient forerunner structures.
This just looks like halo infinite… Generic af. Not angry, people must have worked hard on it, but kind of disappointed.

They already made this remake. You can buy it on Steam for $10
psx_crab@lemmy.zip 5 months ago
That one is kind of a remaster though, this one is a proper remake. Not sure if it’s necessarily.
Rhaedas@fedia.io 5 months ago
Proper remake was the Cursed Halo variants.
MimicJar@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Yes, but that was lazy remake, this one they put effort into, probably.
FWIW I did enjoy this remake, but it did have some janky looking cutscenes.
Doc_Crankenstein@slrpnk.net 5 months ago
They couldn’t let this franchise just die with what little dignity it had left, could they?
