I played the game for the first time today (free on XBox Pass), and was very surprised. It positively feels like a game from the late 2000s, in every aspect, and especially in multiplayer. Boring graphics, stiff movement, cobbled together audio... I'm puzzled how it has any appeal.
- tested23 5y agoYour criticisms about the gameplay are very unique given criticisms of this game in general are almost always qualified by saying the core gameplay loop is good. Why dont you give a comparison of a gameplay you think plays better.
- n3dm 5y agoThey are not unique. Game feels dated, and is just not fun.
- ricardobeat 5y agoCSGO, even though it’s still essentially the same game released in 1879, has much more interesting gameplay. The maps are designed for interesting combat and not just piles of boxes scattered at random. The Halo maps look the same from every angle. Apex, Overwatch have much more natural movement and better graphics. Even PUBG with the worlds most terrible engine/movement/physics has more fun to offer.
- dvsfish 5y agoFunny, mine and my friends experience is the exact opposite. For Halo, the movement feels better than ever, like what you'd expect a truly "20s" Halo should feel like. The game just felt a bit fun. I'm not in any way a halo snob either, tried it cause it was free and found my expectations were exceeded.
- leetrout 5y agoThe levels I saw in the tutorial felt very empty and hollow. Like the environment artists just copy and pasted the same crates around with the same little doodads. Just seemed bland.
- ahartmetz 5y agoHalo has always been a very slow (and therefore kind of boring) FPS. I guess its real claim to fame was that it was the best one could do without a mouse. Super overrated game IMO.
