I think something is gravely misunderstood...

In Response To: Bungie Spread too Thin? (dolbex)

Why does everyone assume Bungie is going to be "all up ons" these new projects? They've said it countless times "it's their project not ours, we're excited to see what comes out of it."

They may drop in with a few "Hey, that's way off" here or there, but don't think Bungie is going to have a few reps in Ensemble or Wingnut every day keeping the direction in line.

There seems to be much faith in both developers by Bungie, perhaps thats enough for some peace of mind (then again, could they really say "omg we have no faith!" ...don't think they'd get away with that).

Perhaps Jackson's project will be more promising since he's spent much time with Staten and the movie which seems to have plenty of Bungie influence. At this point, I get the impression that he may as well be part of the Bungie team. However, while Ensemble may be a great RTS game producer, I don't know if they have the same "Bungie influence." What constitutes Bungie-influence? What occurs within those walls that makes these games so distinct? I do not know, and I'm not sure Enesemble will fully understand that. That trailer alone seemed very... non-bungie (We'll give them war? :/, Cool looking though).

Bungie isn't stretching, they're watching. You're certainly right that these new games will have their own distinctive styles seperate from what we know to be "Halo." Which was my point all along.
