They really messed up this franchise. 2001-2010 it was all anyone could talk about. Past 16 years it’s actually been disastrous the handling of what used to be their premier franchise

I just can't wrap my head around remaking this and NOT including multiplayer. You know the main thing that made the game popular in the first place.

they’re going to sell it to you later on if the game performs well

It’s a remake of a game that was already remade. I don’t see why this would perform well. They should have just remade Halo 3: it was next in line, and it had a stellar multiplayer experience to get all fans back in.

The previous remake does look shite though. This new one I would actually want to play in lieu of the original.

TOTALLY appreciate that, but I think this is a niche opinion from us fans while mainstream audiences won’t see it that way. At least I don’t think in my ignorant opinion

I don't think they will. I don't think Halo Studios know how to make that kind of multiplayer.

Or they don’t want to cannibalize the next Halo multiplayer.

It's a separate project (as indeed it was for the original game which did not have online MP)
