Not Marathon Infinity... (Gaming)

I’m basically with Raga in that I didn’t dig where Halo went and just moved on. I think I might have made a post or two about the narrative, but that’s really it.

But it’s more along the lines of living in the past rather than moving forward with something new. You might be able to capitalize on the nostalgia, but the way Halo felt, looked, and played is really a product of its time. Halo played and looked great, but there are games now that play and look better. Part of this is advancing tech, but part of it is the collective knowledge about what feels good to play.

When you forge ahead you can create an experience for the ages. When you move back into nostalgia, you create an experience for the moment.
