Re: Halo remakes? *Reach SP*

In Response To: Re: Halo remakes? *Reach SP* (Quirel)


: But why? What's the point in making those changes?
: I understand that armor changes and more Covenant ranks are added because of
: gameplay and artistic license, but /what/ is the point of making Foehammer
: a Falcon pilot? What's the point in adding Brutes? WHY (oh God, WHY) add
: the melted-anime-style Mark IVs from Halo Wars?
Well, I don't necessarily want Foehammer to pilot a Falcon, or for the MC to get a distinct new look, but I'd have no problem if that happened. But dual-wielding? Sounds good. New weapons? Go for it! Brute Chieftans? Those were some of my favorite fights in Halo 3 and I love Halo 3/ODST/Reach Brutes, so why not throw some in? None of that really changes the story, just some insignificant details, and it keeps the game from being an uninspired cut-and-paste job.

: Now, someone is going to come by and disagree, saying they like the new PoA,
: and that's going to prove something else. There is no middle ground. You
: can't build a game like this without splitting the fanbase, and I'd rather
: see resources spent exploring the rest of the Haloverse.
I can definitely agree with this.
