Amazing how 343 is just deadset on shifting the campaign and story side of Halo Infinite. While I don’t doubt the sincerity of the difficulty of the choice, I’m so sick of this being the one area they continue to screw over. It’s exhausting.
PSA: As we've refined our top priorities and shifted resources internally this year, we had to make the decision to forego seasonal narrative cutscenes to make room for the team to continue focusing on highly requested features, content, and improvements for Halo Infinite.
These…
I’m just going to say it. I do not believe 343 Industries views story as a priority for Infinite. I’m also questioning that priority for the franchise as a whole.

Because of the unique story and aliens, I was pulled into Halo and stayed for the gameplay and PvE. I wish my favorite parts of the games weren't being slowly taken out.
@DecepticonCobra
Those narrative events were already pathetically tiny and almost non-existent compared to how they were hyping up the mp story. But it was the only thing that was still keeping me even slightly interested in this game.
Not even mad or disappointed anymore. I was a long time ago.

I’ll keep saying it, Halo is going through an identity crisis. The core of players still active are not the BR/live service crowd that they tried to appeal to. Instead of focusing on features the community was actually asking for, 343 keeps shooting themselves in the foot
@DecepticonCobra
I wish more and more they had just wrapped up the story so far with a true Halo 6 instead of the future of Halo’s storytelling once again up in the air with no closure. I liked Infinite’s story at first, but the lack of a future makes me wish they did it differently.
@DecepticonCobra
They could very well be losing sight of what made the franchise what it is in the first place
The story in Halo is everything, Multiplayer is just a bonus, its great, but the reason people love Halo is for the Story
@DecepticonCobra
In all honesty, the mp narrative, as nice as the cutscenes were, never really worked imo. So I'm glad they're moving away from that for MP & focus on gameplay & features. Storywise I rather they focus on a full campaign for a sequel than small bits for MP without substance
Halo fans: “Fire 343! We don’t want their content! I will never play anything from 343!”
Also Halo fans: “Why is MS firing people at 343? Why is Halo Infinite not being promoted at the showcase? Where is the new Halo Infinite content? I’m quitting Halo FOREVER…again…again!”
