Re: To clarify...

In Response To: Re: To clarify... (Leviathan)


: But it's a company that was created for the sole purpose of preserving Halo.
: They want to respect it. Why needlessly change iconic visuals? Subtle
: changes are one thing. But complete redesigns for no reason, I'm not a fan
: of...

To what extent do you want to apply the word "preserve?" If that were their mission statement (is it? I don't recall that) then I'd hope its simply to preserve the quality of the franchise. If they can't change the armor, what can they change?

I'm in the minority when it comes to things like this: I'm tolerant to change. I want to play a Halo game that gives me the chills again and if that means a new company comes in and tweaks the armor, disregards some constricting bits of canon and gives Cortana ultra-realistic jiggle physics, I'm cool.

343 know their stuff and I'll give them the benefit of the doubt until the game comes out. I've enjoyed the majority of the work they've done thus far with the fiction and they've got AAA talent working on the game. I'm looking forward to seeing more.
