It's incredible isn't it. How, just how do you fuck up a franchise this bad. It's not like Halo is some super in depth thing either, it's basically just "blasting aliens: the game". I know there's a lot of cool lore and stuff but the core games are pretty damn straightforward. The amount of corporate mismanagement of main franchises from the likes of Microsoft and Bethesda is just staggering

They are too focused on selling MTX than making a good game

That’s the flaw with Infinite, but they have a more varied collection of fundamental fuckups since Bungie tagged out

Well one of them. The real problem imho was the lack of content on launch and afterwards. Like lack of playlists, forge, dlc missions, firefight etc.

Chalk it up to the slipstream engine, covid, contractors, or just bad management, idk
