That was interesting but I'm glad they cut it, it really dragged on. I wish they'd kept the tablets in the level and given cortana some lines guessing at their meaning while you're running around. 18 years later I'm still wondering why the elites submitted to the prophets.

Old Ubisoft developer here, an I can honestly say, no one puts love an passion in there games anymore an if they do it’s not no where near to this level
That is categorically, absolutely, totally not true. To even say that is asinine. Yes, there are some major problems in the industry that didn't exist back then. Yes, there are greedy corporations who shit out garbage for a quick buck. But to say that no developer has passion anymore or that no passion goes into games is just insane. You're telling me that no passion or love was put into Tears of the Kingdom? Witcher 3? FF7 Remake/Rebirth? Baldur's Gate 3? the Last of Us 1-2? Horizon? That Dragon, Cancer? Elden Ring? A thousand other masterpiece's that have come out in the last 2 decades??

What 29:16-31:18 made me think of is that one reason why I think UNSC had a better chance on the ground than in orbit is that I don't know much about the Covenant's infantry tactics, but professional militaries in the real world teach you to fight as a unit. You are not an individual; you are a part of a whole. Sure, there are special operations units and Spartans, but people only make to those units because they can be trusted with the basics, and they know how to make their individuality serve the whole. The Covenant (especially in the case of Brutes and Elites) seem like they are more about personal honor and glory, and I say that as someone who likes the Elites. This entire video is good. For those of you too young to remember or who didn't get a special edition of the game, I got a special edition of Halo 2 when it first came out in which the game was in a metal case and included a disc of this. The manual was narrated by the Arbiter with in-world descriptions of weapons and such as part of an intel report before his hearing in the first cutscene as a cool touch. "Used as a pathetic last resort by desperate humans" was roughly his description of the Magnum lol.
halo is renowned for its first 5 games being extremely polished and very well balanced and play tested beyond what any other game developer ever did, which is why they were such a gigantic hit on release.
Yeah multiplayer wise sure. But im replaying the campaigns with the mcc and the campaigns usually werent great. 1 is so dated and empty. 2 is decent. 3 really struck me at how lame the campaign is. Its weird i dont have much memory of it even though i played it when it came out. And i realized i just didnt like the campaign back then either and it just disappeared from my mind. And its still bad now. Story not good. Strange set pieces that just feel shoehorned into it. Didnt work for me. Odst and reach arent bad. This series always seriously excelled with the multiple but the campaigns arent that great. Theyre corny. Generic space marines, dumb aliens that speak english and said really silly things. Hard to take it seriously. Some of the weapons are just awful like the 3 shot battle rifle and that huge thing in 3 that has to be charged up.
@@trenken you're looking at it through the current lens. All of the campaigns were legitimately ground-breaking when they came out. That isn't an opinion; that's a fact. There were plenty of other franchises out that were producing similar games, but none of them even came close to the popularity of Halo. With COD being an exception, but some people say they aren't the same genre, so...meh.
this was the inspiration to go against all odds grind a fulltime job at constructions while studying all night for a decade to look back at this as a lead developer and tech engineer of a game studio.
Imagine if they had 1 more year to get it how they truly wanted...its amazing even now but especially back then....but i think it would be INSANE how much better it would be, and there would be more of a finish to the story as well and more missions. If only they werent under a 18 month time crunch

It was a magical time to experience. Although Bungie let its ambition overstretch it, it at least tried to amaze us (and succeeded a great deal). Nowadays, we expect to be disappointed rather than amazed.
