In Response To: Re: Prophet of Bad Voice Acting (Louis Wu) : I think you totally missed Matt's point. Maybe, though maybe I didn't get mine across totally well either. :) I wasn't actually disappointed with Halo 3 at all, it was pretty much everything I expected bar a few little nitpicks. I suppose I read Matt's post to the idea that publishers alone are mostly responsible for forcing developers to dumb things down in order to drive sales and that the days of artistic integrity are already gone primarily because of those publishers. Personally, I believe that is an exaggeration and that there are publishers that will remain fairly hands off with their developers. Perhaps all games are being dumbed down (though I don't entirely subscribe to that myself), but that's a different argument IMO. Developers can be just as responsible as publishers. Basically, don't lump all the blame at one group. As far as Halo goes and the idea of dumbing down the story, I don't know. Most players out of the millions never seemed to pay any attention to the story or cut scenes anyway, or even grasp that there was much of a story at all, so its hard to imagine that aspect being dumbed down to appeal to more people. It was always an aspect of the game that was there if you wanted it and pretty absent if you didn't. Unless of course its to help drive sales of the books etc.
