In Response To: Re: It's always a bit depressing... (bluerunner)


: I think that's part of it too. Exploration in Halo 1 and 2 was fun because it
: was challenging. Many times it required manipulating the games' physics.
: It was a puzzle.

: Invisible barriers inhibited the challenge of exploring beyond the levels on
: foot, and theater and pan cam made on foot exploration basically
: pointless. Thus leads us to nostalgia of exploration in the old games. It
: wasn't because there were cool things to find. It was the thrill of the
: challenge.

The challenge is still there to do it on foot, and arguably its more difficult than ever.
That's what has led us to seeing people using armour lock ontop of Pelicans and Phantoms to get outside of the maps, or even figure out how to fly Seraphs.

Of course, there were plenty of complaints about Halo CEA's lack of theatre mode as well.

Moral is, its just impossible to please everyone and some people are just impossible to please, full stop.
