Halo Infinite |OT| Negative Infinity, I don't like it

[Legend]

The online community is kinda imploding right now, with this being an example: Longer Message From Ske7ch : halo

I think the early multiplayer release was a poor decision in hindsight. There was so much hype in the beginning but now the official launch day will need to win back the community. And on that note, the review embargo is supposedly set for 3 AM eastern on Monday.

I agree. They are completely different, and they didn't even have the same launch date either. This will help the single player score better

Technically the current multiplayer is still in beta with the official launch coinciding with the campaign, but yeah ideally the campaign should be scored as a standalone $60 game. It's kinda like how TLOU2 lost multiplayer.

I feel like we are out of "hype mode" now.  can we change the title to: "343 are GaaSlighting us"

That's too clever to skip so sure.

I'll change the title again once reviews come out. Lots of game quotes could fit perfectly if it does bad.

2 hours till reviews!

I was listening to a Halo 4 song on repeat and it was making me nervous lol. I really just hope the reviews are somewhat accurate. Ideally the game is great and reviews great but Infinite has been so polarizing.

edt: This was the song

From the reviews I skimmed, looks to be the later.

Campaign is seemingly not good outside of being built off good shooting mechanics.

Halo Infinite is always fun, but it is also awkward and compromised. Where Halo Infinite's multiplayer has charted a clear course for the future, the campaign continues to live in the shadow of those that came before it. My campaign review:  https://t.co/caLh0IFUOD

87 on meta at the moment. I doubt it holds, but currently I'm the only one that was in range lol. See yall in the morning.

If it holds then I'll be pleasantly surprised

might have to subscribe to game pass PC to play this if it turns out decent.  I'm assuming its gonna be on gamepass PC and not just the console version

My biggest complaint regarding Halo Infinite really is that the disc doesn't contain a playable game. This'll be the first Halo game you can't really own as a standalone copy. This is not a good trend and I hope MS reconsiders things like this.

I'll mostly be avoiding Halo discussion now. Just 2 days to go.

i listend to (while working) half of that DF analysis.

...i got to say, i'm fudgy tired of these kinds of analysis that treat realism as the only form of beauty.   i soo don't care about these "visual nitpicks".

Well that's the whole point of digital foundry. They just break down the technical side of the game.

i know.  it's my fault for watching i guess.  i just think it's bad for gaming that soo many gamers eat this shame up.
