In Response To: Re: "This forces me to set Halo 4 down" (tiny) : This just seems like the wrong way to think about it, that now the only way : you can enjoy a game is if you're earning something from it and that once : that stops for even an instant, its no longer enjoyable? It's not really about 'earning' something, it's the pursuit of a goal really. The game provides the goal - reach SR130 - then frustrates it by imposing an arbitrary time-limited cap at SR70, with no idea when that will be lifted. It's not that they can't enjoy the moment-to-moment gameplay, it's that the wider, bigger goal that tied those experiences together is stuck half-way with nothing the player can do about it. If they think they can get the same moment-to-moment fun from another game, and not feel reminded that their goal is frustrated by playing Halo, they will.
