I'm not necessarily talking about you though, but rather the line of thinking that produces the minimization I've seen in this thread because "most people don't seem that bothered with forge not being there": a lot of that is BECAUSE people aren't considering custom games. I feel as a result when you say stuff like that it's super disingenuous. |
"Just hope they can get it out ASAP and cause Halo Infinite is a 10 year project or whatever, it ain't too late and folk will still be invested deeply into the game in 6 months from release, and I hope it's easy for the content creators to quickly make stuff, I have read interesting leaks about Forge from someone on Era (Prior to the Halo Beta leaked files!!!) Which makes it even more vital that Multiplayer is content packed on launch to tide folk over until Custom Games/Forge craziness comes." Not really relevant but you quoted me in the middle of an edit Okay that line should definitely be more along the lines of "Most folk seem accepting of Forge's delay" or something, obvs it's disappointing but I think the expectation is Forge is huge and almost its own entity now, folk assuming this Forge will also have huge improvements, so they're more willing to wait over something like Co-op Campaign which should definitely have been there day one. God I really hope they add AI though, I was doing some reading and apparently it would have had to be built into the engine to allow AI for Forge...Well...They did revamp the engine so...We probably aren't getting AI but it would be so cool. |
"Most" was the part of the comment I had issue with though (that wasn't an actual quote from you, it was paraphrasing). Unpopular truth: In reality, most Halo players would be ok with Campaign being delayed indefinitely, especially because it's the only part that people have to pay for, so they'd be waiting for the part they actually have to spend money on whilst also getting to play a free multiplayer mode. And by "most" we mean a majority. Doesn't matter if it's 51% or 78%. Does that make it ok? I don't really think so. Frankly even if that margin of error is off (like say, 48% were fine with no campaign instead of 51%) the fact that is even close to a reality proves the point I think.
I think the real stinker is what supplemental game modes are there even in Infinite if it doesn't have co-op, forge, or firefight?
