>Halo was widely mocked and laughed as baby first FPS>fast forward to 2020s, suddenly everyone like and regard Halo as one of the best FPS game ever madeWhat happened.
baby grew up and took over the internet
>>725209927fpbp
Just because it was a simple FPS for babies doesn't mean it's not a BAD simple FPS for babies.As the best babies first FPS it's remembered fondly by those who didn't play the more complex games before and there were no more complex FPS after to really open their eyes.Add 20 years and there you go
>>725209827>suddenlyYou're confusing 4chan with humanity. Halo (and 2 and 3) has been VERY highly regarded by a lot of people since release.
I'm waiting for enough time to pass and shit games to come out that people start to unironically post 4, 5, and infinite were good.
>>725210894>Halo 4 is actually good and here's why:
>>725210894They aren't good but the old games were just as bad
>>725210435>a lot of peopleThese people you're speaking of are propagandized tools who also think status is important, that schools should exist, and that making 14 year olds pregnant is wrong. Strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. I'll stick to Godly truth over human delusions thank you very much.
>>725209827The arenafags who complained about Hail-o saw their genre died and were never heard of again.Good riddance.
Why are zoomers so resentful of the past? Is it simply because they didn't get all that fun?
>>725210894https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iX1mkYbPFFIWe already have teenagers shitting on CE and talking about how Infinite is the ultimate Halo experience.
>>725210894newer is better- bill gates
The only people that seethed about Halo CE were Quakesissies THO GoldenEye outsold Halo, and fits the bill more as baby's first fps if we're talking about Millennials If you want to talk about zoomers then Halo 3/CoD4 is probably more in line with that.
>>725212837Only tendies bought Goldeneye
>>725209827It's crazy how irrelevant Halo is now. I'm pretty sure I remember hearing that, a year after its release, Halo 3 was still pulling 900k+ concurrent players on a single platform. Halo Infinite's all time high is probably like 200k tops. What happened?
Quaketroons are still setting after 24 years. So pathetic.
>>725212904Series ended. Creators decided to move on. Microsoft's attempts to drag it out went predictably badly.
>>725212904Halo ended with Reach
>>725212890N64 vastly outsold Xbox. More people had it than the original Xbox even in NA where Xbox was the most popular. >N64 - 32.93 million (NA - 20.63M)>Xbox - 24 million (NA - 16M)It was also the system that was pushing console shooters in that time: GoldenEye, Perfect Dark, Turok 1/2/RW/3, South Park, Quake 1, 2 and Doom 64.
Can someone actually tell me an fps that isn't simple?
>>725213791Simplicity isn't why Halo is made fun of, it's that it's very slow and built around gamepads.
>>725209827first baby dudebro fps was goldeneye, which was a still good fps. Boomers memory hole it so they can pretend consumers had no experience in the genre.Halo was the 2nd blockbuster fps boomers lost to console and they couldn't handle it. More boomers die every year so you don't hear them yelling at cloud anymore.
>>725214041And yet FEAR however, slower than Halo and built for gamepads, gets a pass for being the best fps ever by /v/. Explain how that makes sense
>>725209827Halo has always been good. Just listen to the ones that "mocked it". Loser faggots that believe pushing buttons or sliding a mouse the right way is a "skill" or complicated. Halo is fun because it's dynamic enough to be engaging and slow enough to not overwhelm and be an all around chill game.
>one of the best fps ever made>the slowest fps ever madechoose one and only one
>>725214342I played Far Cry on pc and that game is half the speed of Halo. But you'll never hear that here.
>>725214174It's because it was on PC and PCBOOMERS have a chip on their shoulder for some weird ass reason. How curious, two of the best shooters ever are slow paced and have simple movement mechanics.
>>725214342Counter Strike is slower than Halo and the most popular and best fps ever.
>>725212904people gave the benefit of doubt to halo 4, its multiplayer was a shit mix with cod and people left the ship in the last 10 years
>>725209827>widely mocked>suddenlyHalo was THE dudebro console fps. Outside of elitist on niche Mongolian throat singing forums everyone praised it. Hell, even back in the day, on this very site, it was still well regarded amongst the average newfag and people would try to make threads for it constantly.This is the equivalent of saying Naruto was hated and a flop because /a/ hated it.
>>725209927bingo>>725210894I can't wait for 20 years from now when people are nostalgic for wokeshit and we have "ackshually Concord was an underrated hidden gem" threads
Same shit will happen with Minecraft and Fortnite in the foreseeable future
>>725214174>FEAR>slower than Halo and built for gamepads>posts a webm of him playing like a disabled retard, yet also better than Gaylo1/10 see me after class
>>725215218see, they're defending fear. This is what they do
>>725212904It had no competition, once it got competition in the casual space, to collapsed under its own weight. It was a product of its time which is why it needed to evolve into its own series no longer pushing the boundaries but just be Halo for modern faster gaming.
>>725215326Extra homework for a week.
>>725211520Zoomers are the ones that like this piece of shit, well, early zoomers that is.
>>725209827Anon, we have unironic minecraft nostalgia threads. I give it 3-5 years before we get the roblox ones.
>>725215148I never had an issue wither Fortnite or Minecraft. People can like it all they want and I couldn't give a shit. Halo uniquely causes derangement syndrome.
>>725215148Isn't that already happening with Minecraft? We always get threads where people act elitist over playing Minecraft "BEFORE it was kewl"
>>725212904343 is actively incompetent or filled with DEI that gives 0 shits about halo
>>725215590There was a 300+ post thread a few days ago about The Last of Us and most posters were arguing that it was a good game that predated "wokeslop"I didn't bother posting in it
>>725215148nigga minecraft's only like 10 years older than halo, zoomers ALREADY have nostalgia for the older versions
>>725214174>tries to play Fear like a retard to use it as a Gotcha>game still ends up looking very fun and better than HaloCool now show us some Halo 1-3 campaign webms of continuous gameplay with no cuts.
>>725214454Obviously false but I still went through the trouble of asking slopgpt to do the calculations. In 1.6 you're roughly moving at 25/30kmh (walking/running), it's a legit calculation based on units per second which are well known. Supposedly according to Halo CE's own physics engine you move at 18kmh, with characters that are 7 feet tall so it should feel even slower. So CS is twice as fast, and outpaces Halo even while walking.
>>725215218>>725215780What is supposedly so retarded about that gameplay?
Halo and it's consequences have been a disaster for gaming. Before you blame devs for dumbing down games for brown people you should remember that this was aimed at white American teenagers
>>725215639Halo did more damage to the industry, indies and AAs remained different from Fortnite and Minecraft with only AAA tards trying to copy those games. Halo damaged literally everything just like Xbox did. It was like a domino effect. There is no hatred for current Halo because its well past its heyday, but people sure as hell hate its annoying as fanbase who live in an echochamber.
>>725215934>not using bullet time>not using kung fu>moving slowly as hell>bad aim>corner hugging
>>725215908Which means nothing because CS has mechanics that influence the pace of the game. Movement inaccuracy, weapon handling, ttk, etc. Halo objectively plays faster.
>>725215934He purposely tries to play the game like shit to make a point about Halo but fails completely because Fear is more fun than Halo even when playing like a snail.
>>725209827>Fortnite babs are unironically posting this meme now
>>725216147You can't even move and aim accurately at the same time on a console fps.>inb4 skill issueProve me wrong.
>>725216047*ass
>>725215067Actually, Concord WAS an underrated gem. It had... uhh...
>>725216114>>725216156If you can play the game "retarded" and bad and still not get hit or challenged that's proof the game is a simple retard game, fundamentally. You're not helping your case.
>>725209827Quakefags don't matter.
>>725209827>>fast forward to 2020s, suddenly everyone like and regard Halo as one of the best FPS game ever madeyoure kidding right
It was and still is baby's first fps. What changed? The 2016 flooded the site with american dudebros that never grew up and normalfags
>>725216232Damn, good point. Doom is a retard game because I can play like a complete faggot and hug walls while taking potshots at demons a mile away with the pistol.
>>725216114>>725216156Look at them defending FEAR. lol. What i tell you
>>725215963>>725216047halo's negative impact is overrated. it was a dominant first person console shooter in the era of first person console shooters. that's literally it.halo did nothing wrong
My only experience with halo is installing 2 on my brand new vista computer and being shocked at the cg_fov 50.
>>725216232Here's the thing, you have the option to play like a retard when playing Fear. There is no option to not play like a retard playing Halo. Only thing Halo had going for itself was vehicular gameplay.
>>725216347Detention for a month.
>>725216204>You can't even move and aim accurately at the same time on a console fps.>>inb4 skill issue>Prove me wrong.nintendo wii. but we were never ready to have that conversation.
>>725216204That's where the fist-sized crosshairs come into play. It's like those pianos for toddlers with big bright keys they're supposed to punch or slap.
>>725216232He does get hit in that webm.
Halo was the first FPS that was actually playable with a controller, but that's about all it had going for it.
>>725216349It made shooters slow while dumbing everything down for controllers and adding auto aim, it did a lot of damage that took years to fix. Even now Microsoft refuses to upgrade things, like their dated ass controller. Microsoft dropping gaming is a blessing.
>>725209827>Halo was widely mocked and laughed as baby first FPSmaybe for pc players online in doom / quake / UT in reality that is incorrect
>>725209827lol half the shit you losers spew on here is ignored irlall the people who hated on cool shit back then like halo or the star wars prequels are the same people who like gay ass woke shit now
>>725209827Outside of your boomer skullet ponytail quake / doom circle jerk, halo was quite popular, overrated even. Never saw anyone disparage it till the last few years here on /v/
>>725216518I always thought halo's greatest crime was the controller-centric design it standardized.Turns out, it also introduced the modern algorithm driven matchmaking.
>>725216529Not OP, but it was mocked by everyone, PC players, Nintendo players, and PlayStation players, wish I could say Sega players, but you know.
>>725216518Health regeneration was its biggest sin. It didn't invent "press X to take cover" but it might as well have.
>>725216518what shooters were slowed down? there was always cod and halo. and console and pc. if you don't like autoaim pc had it turned off. the xbox controller is as good as controllers get.
>>725216672Yeah, these piece of shit franchise did so much damage, I'm glad COD finally killed it with its fourth entry in 2007.
>>725216518It did the opposite. You cant name a higher skill based console fps before Halo came out. Any console fps before Halo actually had auto aim. And not the /v/ shitpost kind either. Like hard lock on, Goldeneye/Doom style auto aim. Halo changed that
Gaylo was slow dogshit with 2 weapons only limit and so on
>>725216673halo 2 wasnt and halo 3 definitely wasnt. halo 3 transcended the console wars.
>>725216420It's less the crosshairs and more the autoaim, the soft tracking of player fired projectiles (like plasma pistol shots), the slowness of enemies, how slow and lacking in agility you are and how often they stand still and most importantly having regenerating health (or at least a shield in the first game). It's all designed around a game where you aren't expected to be able to avoid being hit constantly or be able to track mobile enemies, it's designed around a controller. FPS games prior to the popularity of stuff like Halo are designed around you being fast enough to avoid enemy fire while shooting back. If you tried to play Quake like Halo, you'd die horribly very quickly.I also really hated the trend of 2 gun limits and how big and empty the maps were, though I think the fact that it was changed to an FPS late in development is the biggest cause of that.Gears of War came latter and reinforced a lot of this bullshit and limited mobility even more, you went from active platforming in Quake and similar games to barely any verticality in levels, to not being able to jump at all.
>>725216707It gave us, dumbed down boss fights by the second game leading to laziness of boss fights in games turning into QTEs.
>>725216805>console fps is a console fpsoh the horror. PCels had nogamez back then and were upset they got mogged by console
>>725216719Doom 3 and Quake 4 to name a few
>>725216904Quake > Halo
>>725216805And yet Half Life's enemies are way slower and you aren't dodging hit scanners either, but /v/ will tell you it's the best fps ever made. Let that make sense.
Controller FPS was popular with braindead normalfags because it is easier to just pick up and play and be mediocre at it regardless of how unskilled you are. M+KB intimidated consolefags massively.
>>725211310You're so cool, thirdiekun.
>>725209827What's baby's first rpg, dragon age?
>>725216924>>725216914fuck quake. no one but a couple of incel school shooter boomers played that.
>>725216904>PCels had nogamez>in 2001Are you pretending to be retarded?
>>725216783Perfect Dark and Timesplitters 2 eats Halo for breakfast.
>>725216997something made by bethesda
>>725216997no, SW: KotOR
>>725216783>skill based console fps LMAO, just LMAO
>>725216673idk, before I had internet Halo was a pretty reliable as the go to game for weekends>it was mocked by everyone>PC playersold men at the time>nintendo playerskids and autistic spergs>playstation playersweebs and only 2 controller ports>sega players you're right there I didn't know they had a console after genesis until I was an adult
>>725216949back then pc had no games and no one wanted to play doom with school shooters and trannies instead of playing halo with the boys>>725216997pokemon
>>725216997Either Oblivion or Skyrim, depends on when they were born.
>>725217019>Still gets played today>Unlike Halo. Which struggles maintaining players Uh huh
>>725217030He played on Xbox, the literal no games console. I'm pretty sure he's very retarded, anon.
>>725217051no they dont
>>725211184>picture of Cortana
>>725217105>pc had no games>2001Are you pretending to be retarded?
>>725217030pcniggers were starving all the way up until the ps4 launched. pre gen6 was arcade era and post gen 7 was pc era. gen 6 & 7 consoles had games and pc had jack shit.
>>725209827Friendless losers hate Halo, that's the simple fact of the matter. Even the console versions of Halo had more player-based customization tools for game modes than most PC shooters officially did at the time without mods. You could fuck around with everything from the weapons to the vehicles to the objectives, and it progressively increased with every game until Halo 3 was basically the Roblox of FPS games of its time. People were making the dumbest shit in Forge and customs to the point it wasn't even really about killing each other in a direct PvP sense. Fucking platforming on top of a jenga tower while one dude tried to topple you all off by flinging projectiles at you, or a functional pinball machine where you had to hold back the horde of zombies using the ball.
>>725217117you don't have xbox live. so what do you know, weather boy?
>>725216997Western? Pick a Bethesda game post daggerfall and it'll fitEastern? Shit man I dunno. Pokemon.
>>725217181are you pretending to be a pc gamer? dumb larping zoomzoom thinks current memes always applied
>>725216793Nothing wrong with 2 weapon limit. If you're a good level designer you will be going through different weapons in a level anyways despite the 2 weapon limit, making you run out of bullets forcing you to pick up other weapons and use them, or having enemies be weaker to certain type of weapons making you think twice about your load outs. Really a nonsensical complaint by low IQ people honestly.
>>725217189fedoraniggers will forever be bitter that they had no games and no friends when halo came out.
>>725217269>Defending artificial limitations because consoles didn't have weapon wheels yetLow IQ post. As expected from a halo shitter
>>725217187How old are you? I have to assume you weren't allowed to own a pc during those years. What you're saying is pure nonsense.
>>725217030>senile alreadyYou were BEGGING for console ports pc didn't even have the indie scene lmao
>>725217402Counter Strike has a 2 weapon limit for a reason too
It will never cease to amaze me how PC players to this day still bitch about how Halo was "slow", when the most played PC shooter of all time is not only slower, but one of the slowest FPS ever made.
>>725217187And the dumbest post of the year award goes to...
>>725217187You must be 18 or older to post here little zoomie.
>>725217453>>725217187You must be 18 years of age or older to use this website.
>>725217404bro we can all clearly see the releases by year. larping as a boomer fedoranigger isnt going to save you. pc had no games. literally none. you had the sims and doom and like centipede and shit. consoles had everything and before that arcades had everything. it was nothing like now.
>>725209927Yep.Nowadays they're even trying to say shit like Sonic 06 was good. Just a complete lack of standards on all fronts.
>>725209827Because back then, good FPS games were a dime a dozen. Halo CE had stiff as fuck competition between Turok Evolution, Red Faction, Half-Life, Medal of Honor, King Kong, Killzone, etc.Most games in general from the past 15 years have sucked ass. It really just shows how good we had it in the 00's.
>>725217187PC always got games unlike the droughtbox
>>725217638>>725217593>>725217536larpers will seethe and cope and dilate bur they'll never post the games. fedoraniggers were playing flash games while consolechads were playing all the games. real oldfags remember.
>>725209827I am 37 years old and have always liked Bungie's Halo games. They never made a single bad Halo game. Even Reach was good despite its balance issues. In fact I would be willing to sacrifice my own life just so I can enjoy peak Halo popularity and the classic games again or a new game made entirely in the spirit of Halo CE/2/3 even if for just a few years. Yes I miss Halo that much and yes I thought Halo was that good. Sadly though I cannot foresee the masses ever wanting to go back to a slower pace more tactical FPS game again.
>>725217752what did you have? runescape? fuck outta here. fedorazoomer
>>725217525That was originally a simulator. It invented the tactical shooter genre. The fact is that your arena shooter for babies has significantly slower movement speed as pointed above.
I really can't tell if this board is entirely baiting faggots or if we really are overrun by underage morons these days.
>>725217893It's both. The biggest threadshitters are always teenagers, just look at the sharty.
>>725209827>babys first fps>one of the best fps of all timeThese aren't mutually exclusive, simple as.
>>725217809You're just a Bungie faggot jumping on the trending grift. Halo CE was mediocre, Halo 2 on up, sucked ass. Halo after Bungie wasn't any better, but the series rightfully died after damaging gaming. Now Bungie's dying, so that's even better because not even they can escape karma.
>>725217986Why in the hell has that shithole not been shut down yet?
>>725210894It's already happening, they call it "The Halo Cycle". A work of fiction.
>>725211310>Says something pedophilic and immediately follows up with some Jesus cocksuckery I'd call satire if it wasn't so common
>>725218056bingo
>>725217525I distinctly remember there was no movement slowdown from jumping in earlier versions.
>larping arenashitter ITT
>>725218117343 shills will write fanfiction in an attempt to make people think their garbage is actually good. God I fucking hate them.
>>725218117My opinion has literally never changed.
>>725218117in 2007 majority agreed halo 3 was the best with some minority liking halo 2. halo ce was a meme. afaik people kept liking 3 and still regard 3 as the best
>>725209827>>Halo was widely mocked and laughed as baby first FPSOnly on 4chan, and it was by the same kind of retards who would, in the very same breath go onwards and praise Half Life 2, a demonstrably worse game in every single category compared to Halo.The fact is, these people you're talking about were delusional retards, but it reached a critical mass of retards convincing other retards who had never even played halo, that halo was a bad FPS title, while to this day 25 years later, it's still not only one of the best ever made, but remains standing amongst the best as very few games since have come close to it.What you're seeing now are zoomers old enough to have played halo, but too young to have been posting on 4chan at the time, bringing their unmolested opinions with them. Halo was never subjected to some retarded social status and posturing game for them, it was just Halo. There was no console war faggotry, there was no "baby's first fps" spammed on the board for two years straight by people seething over Halo's success.You're seeing the real opinions now, not the manufactured and postured ones by resentful gremlins.
Halo kiddies mad ITT
>>725218610Half-Life 2 shits on Halo three ways to next week. Halo was an Xbox thing which is why it flopped multiple times on PC. Halo was never going to do well when it got off of Xbox.
There's more than 1 person on the internet.
>Halo was widely mocked and laughed as baby first FPS>it's real look! we wuz 4chan! We should hate halo! 4chan hated halo! look at this meme posted 999999 timesTwo more weeks. Archives proves you wrong also.
>>725218610>bullies are just jealouspathetic cope for little kids with inept parents
every game is a baby's first
>>725218781>Half-Life 2 shits on Halo three ways to next week.Half-Life as a franchise is literally responsible for in-game cutscenes you can't skip where characters just fucking blab for 10 minutes straight. This is a bigger cancer than anything Halo ever did.
>>725212904From the mouth of marty himself, halo was an allegorical story of christianity - how the jews used muslims to attack christian europe and how the actual chosen people were not the jewish led covenant, but white christiansYou can understand, looking around you at the current state of every single company and then some, why that story had to be ripped to shreds. Now you know why marty and half the original dev team were pushed out of the company following the microsoft acquisition and why the company basically underwent a hostile takeover.They called the game Halo for a reason, they just couldn't be openly christian about the themes and the story because the current state of our society is actively hostile to both un-jewed christianity, and right wing sentiments.
>>725218890And then you move on. I don't go around telling people how great Bad Toys 3D was just because I had a blast with it.
>>725218992Halo is responsible for the movie game craze of cutscenes being thrown in your face up the ass while having linear hallway levels. It's also the reason games started moving away from boss fights which Doom 2016 had to bring back. Halo fucking sucks.
>>725218610>reddit spacingNot reading that shit.
When I was young everyone in my country played quake and, HL, UT and CS. And they were literally 9 years olds. We had LAN clubs everywhere and it was common place to skip school. Quake, UT, HL, CS were baby's first FPS played by literal children. Facts.
The people who shat on Halo back in the days are not the same people praising it nowadays.Old /v/ consisted of Quake 3 and DOOM loving boomers. Modern /v/ is XBOX 360 and Gamecube kids.
>>725218610>a demonstrably worse game in every single category compared to Halo.Stopped reading there. Halo kiddies actually believe this? Jesus, you people really are hopeless.
>>725219023Maybe they should have been less Christcucks and just made it a hidden Marathon sequel like it was supposed to be. 90% of the world is shit because of Christians, and no, I'm not a faggot atheist. I can see why other countries banned the religion, it turns people into schizos.
>>725219114>Halo is responsible for the movie game craze of cutscenes being thrown in your face up the assYou have not touched Halo fucking ever. There's a cutscene at the beginning of every level, and a transitionary end cutscene into the next level, and guess what? You can skip all of them. Unlike Half-Fuck where I'm forced to stand there listening to some dumb shit NPC yapping for 5+ minutes, effectively killing replayability. Again, this infested not only every fucking FPS post Half-Life, it infested every genre of video game.
>>725219162post gameplay of Half Life ever looking fun

>>725219114>It's also the reason games started moving away from boss fights which Doom 2016 had to bring back. Halo fucking sucks.What drugs have you smoked to believe Halo killed boss fights? Boss fights weren't a thing in most FPS titles outside of arena shooters.>>725219425MCC hasn't been broken for like four years at this point, and even went ahead and fixed shit that were broken even in the original releases.

>It's a horror game

>>725209827It’s literally just snoys. You say “2020s” as if people have been praising Halo CE for years, but I’ve never once heard anyone praise this game until they announced the remaster coming to Playstation. I personally never liked Halo CE and anyone who pretends they do I just dismiss as someone desperately trying to make his age his entire personality. >wow look at me, i’m old, isn’t that so cool?Whatever, grandpa, shouldn’t you be getting a colonoscopy?

>horror games don't have to be scary
>>725219892>horror games don't have to be scaryIf a horror game isn't scary to the average person, then by definition it's not horror. Claiming it is horror otherwise is just a blatantly wrong opinion. You don't get to claim you're a racing game and then not have racing. I don't know a fucking soul outside of this thread that would call HL a horror title.

I don't even want to share a space with retards who were raised on sewage like this. You don't have enough of a frame of reference to be worth conversing with, you don't belong here at all.>>725220097Half-Life has a blatant horror and thriller feel to it. Also irrelevant retarded debate because Half-Life is 10x faster with more mobile enemies you need to avoid than Halo, you fucking retard. Why the fuck do you think it was marketed with the tagline "Run. Think. Shoot. Live." ?
>>725209827My first fps was doom in 1995 and halo was still a great game

>>725220260Nice twitter screencap you invasive nigger. Go back there.
>most PC shooters die off because their companies want all the profit elsewhere or they simply are too niche>Xbox dominates the gaming scene for a decade because they have the premiere console shooter that everyone else wanted to be>then everybody loses out to the multi-platform Call of Duty and Sony giving it exclusivity deal blowjobs behind the deskIt feels like it's mostly just bitter, angry PC/Sony fanboys acting like it was the worst thing ever to blame everything on Halo for a scapegoat, more than any actual reasonable arguments ever made about why they're so supposedly terrible. Yeah, okay, lets just gloss over the couple dozen "Halo killers" like Resistance, Killzone, Advent Rising, Pariah, Haze, Crysis, Bounty Hunter Griffon, and the list goes on. It took Halo killing itself to take it out of the leading runnings and Call of Duty basically absorbing everyone into its biomass to shift the industry permanently.
>Half-Life is 10x fasterAnd quake 3 is 30x faster than half Half-Life(dogshit).Half-Life is baby's first fps
>>725209827>Halo was widely mocked and laughed as baby first FPSdefine widely. only people still playing quake 2 thought this way.
>>725220351Hey, it summarizes your fucking media library if you think Half-Life is a horror/thriller. The only possible explanation is you've never actually played a fucking horror game before.
>>725214174Halo's pc port was dogshit until the recent master chief collection. Meanwhile, FEAR has always been fine on pc.
>speed>speed>speedWhy don't we just judge games based on what they wanted to achieve? Not everything needs to be a fast paced arena shooter. Imagine ARMA with rocket jumping.
>>725218117Halo 2 is pretty bad and I am not changing my opinion no matter how much people tell me it is the best in the series.

>>725220583Released 2014, got the PC updates and release at the tail end of 2019, significant patching after that to add mod support and fix the majority of major bugs over the next couple years.

>>725220701It's this type of thinking that made companies think chasing the E-sport cash cow was going to be their next ticket.
>>725220701So is Rainbow Six 3 or SWAT 4 a game for babies?
>>725220701>it's a game for babiesFPS? Yeah. RTS is where you need to actually put effort into playing.
>>725220632No, anon, it's not a horror game because it has none of the hallmarks or design philosophies of a fucking horror game. You absolute fucking dipshit, think about what you're saying. You don't get to be called a horror game when you have access to a squad's worth of weaponry and every enemy dies in a couple of shots. This is why nobody actually into the genre considers Dead Space a horror game, it's an action TPS with thriller elements at best, and Half-Life isn't even close to Dead Space in terms of trying to be a horror.

>>725220537It was only good because of the multiplayerEveryone who says Halo 2 is good is fondly remembering online multiplayer with their friends, they are not remembering the campaign. It's campaign was dogshit, especially how it forced you to play the arbiter instead of fighting over earth like every ad for the game was talking about and what all the development PR was showing. The game was a complete rugpull and a massive disappointment in quality compared to the first.Halo 2's only saving grace was because the multiplayer hit a home run
>>725212213The same guy who said 64k of RAM would be enough for anybody?
>>725209827Halo eclipsed counterstrike as the big tournament game at centers and in MLG. They were the only ones with any legitimate reason to be eternally assmad at Halo. Since you're probably not that coordinated and couldn't afford to have both an xbox and a PC, I have to assume you're one of those faggots with a playstation who would seethe about no one wanting to play Timesplitters 2 with them and blame Halo for it instead of your own poor life choices.
>>725220829>NOOOO /vee/ SHOULD HATE HALO U ZOOMERSLol >>725218840
>>725220875It's faster, looks better, and isn't empty because of console limitations. It also has ALIEN WILDLIFE on it.
Its funI don't think its the best FPS ever made, I like quake more than halo, but its fun.
>>725220875>Biggest problem with anniversary was the reuse of Reach assets>This game is reusing Infinite assets
>>725220903>0/10, actual drooling retardation, horror has jack fucking shit to do with how able the player is to fight backThis has to be bait at this point. There is no way a functional human being typed this shit out with any level of sincerity.

>>725220914Halo honestly would have died a lot sooner if it wasn't for its multiplayer. It showed that Halo was on a timer in its popularity and the moment something more casual came, it was over.

>>725221080>dogshit source port>crosshair>minimalist hud>underageyep, all checks out
>>725220981Biggest problem with Anniversary was that it wasn't a remake using the entire Reach engine but modified a little.
>>725221163Can' wait to discuss Half-Life in horror games thread!
>>725220914>Halo 2's only saving grace was because the multiplayerIt was soccermom toddlerified, which made it more popular, but I vehemently disagree it was better. You could crank the sensitivity to absolute maximum and just spin to win with the sniper rifle or plasma sword waiting for your reticle to stick to someone like glue. Incredibly clowny in my opinion and it was only really fun in the highest tiers of the FFA bracket where it was more about mind games than map strats and power weapon denial.
>>725220981It's still reusing Reach's assets. It's a modified Blam engine with UE5 slathered on top of it for 20fps goodness. Look closely at shit like the enemy animations and you'll see they're exactly the same as Reach.
>>725220815>None of the resident evil games are horror
>>725220914>especially how it forced you to play the arbiter instead of fighting over earth like every ad for the game was talking about and what all the development PR was showingThat's because they literally had to cut the entire final third of the game out that would've returned to Earth to fight over the Ark as the big finale. All those ads, the trailers, the hype were focused around a game that outright had to scrap entire portions to meet the actual release deadline because Bungie shot too high and flew too low.
>>725221185What did she mean by this
>>725221305Depends on which one you're talking about. Resident Evil 5 and 6 certainly aren't horror games.
>>725221097I imagine you're having nam flashbacks about being told Timesplitters 2 is fucking gay right now. Its not that serious lil bro, just let it go.
>>725209827>suddenly everyone like and regard Halo as one of the best FPS game ever madeMeds, schizoid retard, meds this instant, you retarded faggot.
>>725220815>nobody actually into the genre considers Dead Space a horror gameWhat a silly post
>>725221367Neither RE3, RE4 desu.
>>725221305Realistically, you have enough ammo in Half Life to kill the vast majority of enemies. Shooting every zombie in Resident Evil, especially 2 and 3, is a death sentence.
>>725220939>they hate us because we're popularI wouldn't be shocked if Halo had a bigger marketing budget than every single video game that came before it put together. It was astroturfed as fuck. Babies (their moms) fell for it.
>>725221387>more consolewarring retardation
>>725215709>>725215148I was here when Minecraft first dropped and /v/ turned on it like a dime the moment it started getting really niche popular with the Nether update, maybe even a bit before. The threads were like “Minecraft is slop for kids with autism” or something.
It's kinda funny Halo shitposting has ramped up recently with the remake announcement, whereas when 4, 5 and infinite was announced it was all laughing at 343 with a few gullible retards falling for it again.
>>725221434>Shooting every zombie in Resident Evil, especially 2 and 3, is a death sentence.You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about at all.
>>725221163you're confusing FNAF-likes with horror games, the former is a subgenre
>>725221425neither are 1 and 2, as you have weapons and can fight back
>>725221418No, he's right. Isaac is a fucking powerhouse and the Plasma Cutter, the very first weapon you get, mulches through the game with zero issue. You have tons of ammo, you can throw shit at the necromorphs to kill them, you can freeze the necromorphs in place etc.For context, I scare super easy. I am a pussy bitch when it comes to true horror games. Not once have I ever felt scared in Dead Space, it's hard to be scared when I have a supply of space marine gear in my pocket.
>>725221556I would've used Amnesia personally, that was the first no combat horror game I can remember getting very popular.
>>725221434you can kill everything in that game that is killable.
>>725221631Absolutely nothing about your ability to easily kill every single threat you encounter has anything to do with a game being horror themed in the slightest. Zip. Zero.
Complaining about about Halo slowing down FPS to fit console pacing is naive, because consoles themselves were already blowing up and were the dominant form of gaming. SOMEONE was going to find a way to make a FPS work for console pacing at some point, the opportunity and unrealized demand was too great. The PC purists were in their own bubble to not get that these types of games were never going to remain a specific form of high paced arena or tactical shooters made only for nerds who PC game in the 90s. Being the fact that the game to do it was Halo, a unique and kinda weird sci-fi schooter based on biblical themes, effective story with a unique aethetic, setting, atmosphere, and even within the realm of console shooters a unique feel to the movement... that is what makes it so revered. That and the highly successful multiplayer mode. People are too underaged to appreciate how good even the functionality and quality of Halo CE's multiplayer in balance, level design, system link connecting for 16 player matches, and all of that is WAY better than other console shooters whos multiplayer was some dumb dogshit you do with friends who come over for split screen before getting bored. That is self evident that those games are long forgotten and Halo is still the iconic series it has always been.Within the scope of gaming, with the understanding that consoles are a big part of it, Halo is and will remain a legend, as it should, for what it achieve in the era that it did.
>>725221548>>725221665Granted, I am terrible at survival horror. I'm not usually bad with resource management (Grand Strategy and 4x games are my shit), but there is usually something about survival horror that I'm terrible with keeping up ammo and heals.
>>725221072>>725221163You have to be able to fight back in a horror game, if you can't then it's just instantly game-over when you get spotted and then it's just annoying, not scary, I mean the fear comes from not knowing if you're going to be able to make it through the next encounter
>>725210894Halo 4 came out 2 years after Reach, exactly when do you think that's going to happen?Infinite would actually be about okay if not for retarded Microsoft mandates about how they wanted to monetize it combined with Seattle brainrot so they spent the first two years their "ten year GaaS" was out not actually working on it then gave up because it wasn't making any money. Movement, shooting, the base art style is all fine for once, but you have six different human starting weapons and overall a dozen rifles and pistols that only cover two actual roles and way too many crappy semi-auto shotguns and shit that are barely worth picking up because they were all designed for the battle royale mode but stuffed in the normal multiplayer eventually anyways, you have red and blue armor replaced with red and blue outlines to try to sell cosmetics but in reality it means you can't even see what armor they're wearing let alone what color it is 99% of the time, in general you have an unlock model that runs people off more than it keeps them addicted, they waste a bunch of time every match just so they can actually show off what cosmetics people have, and of course like every battlepass game it is flooded with stupid ugly meme cosmetics that need to be as gaudy as possible for the retards that spend money to feel they are being seen. (even though if you go into a game you will see almost all people limited to the free options using the canon armor like Mk IV and not the dumb alternate universe crap, which probably means that stuff actually sells like shit too)I mean there's still other issues like 343 being incapable of making good matchmaking playlists, VRAM management being fucked so an 8GB AMD card on low textures and low geometry settings still gets Star Fox looking LoDs in BTB, and god knows how many users they've lost because of the fucking XBL login not working until you fuck with your Steam browser settings.
>>725221286Not him, don't see a problem with this, 343 kept breaking the blam! engine post-Reach.
>>725221463It didn't until Halo 2. Halo was literally just 'uh we need a launch fupiss game for xbrick cancel that PC RTS and put bungie to work on it.' >>725221487You're the one implying its still a war when it was nearly thirty years ago retard.
>>725221719>Absolutely nothing about your ability to easily kill every single threat you encounter has anything to do with a game being horror themed in the slightest. Zip. Zero.I agree, which is why silent hill 2 isn't a horror game, since you only need to shoot twice and then kick to kill virtually every enemy in the game.
>>725220815survival horror =/= all horror games
>>725221727>consoles themselves were already blowing up and were the dominant form of gaming. SOMEONE was going to find a way to make a FPS work for console pacing at some pointCorrect, and it was Halo, hence why we shit on it.The entire rest of your post is just fellating it for doing basic bitch shit worse than what PC fps games were doing years before.
>>725221719That's not the same thing as being a horror game though.
>>725221545Halo fans themselves are the biggest haters of Halo in terms of genuine emotion and consideration, beyond the whole "UGHH SPRINT" thing you can generally tell someone actually cares about the series if they talk about the details. But the remake's announcement sparked a double overdrive of contrarianism out the fucking wazoo, between blind defenders just trying to proclaim it's good because new, and the usual /v/ detractors seeing popular thing that's easy to punt for trolling. Never mind the sudden upsurge in actual Sony console war shitposters .So any actual concerns are being squashed with this arbitrary shit.
>>725221463This
>>725221827>>725221861Hence why I wasn't the one brainlessly asserting that ability to fight back prevents a game from being horror, and was in fact calling out that retarded sentiment.
>>725221719>Horror-themedThat sounds like an incredibly vague distinction between itself and "actual horror." It's like saying a fun Halloween party and a professional scare house are on the same level. Crypt of the Necrodancer is horror-themed by all technicalities.
>>725221847>wewhich refers to literal basement dwellers who think their opinion is more valuable because they didn't have friends. the majority of well adjusted people respect Halo properly
>>725221823I wasn't aware that your post full of consolewarring faggotry somehow became free of consolewarring faggotry because you are referencing things from the past.
>>725221974>respect Halo properly
>>725221945>Hence why I wasn't the one brainlessly asserting that ability to fight back prevents a game from being horror, and was in fact calling out that retarded sentiment.You said it has zero impact, which isn't true in the slightest. It has a massive impact.
>>725220815Is Doom 3 a horror game?
>>725221548Maybe if you play on baby bitch easy difficulty in those games. You will absolutely run out of ammunition on normal or higher. The only time Dead Space felt actually frightening was on Hard, as no matter how much ammo you get, you're always strapped for more of it from how tanky necromorphs are.
>>725221973No, it's a pretty obvious distinction. Scooby Doo and Terrifier are both technically horror themed, but you know they aren't similar at all. You know nobody was implying Half-Life or Dead Space are Scooby Doo style family friendly funny halloweeny horror, so don't try to be disingenuous now.
>>725221878>Halo fans themselves are the biggest haters of Halo in terms of genuine emotion and considerationIt's so bad that this is the case for every slightly nerdy franchise these days, because the current owners of said franchises don't give a fuck any more. It's fascinating go back to listen to Bungie when they were designing shit and the reason behind all of the stuff they did. It's the same listening to the crew of Star Trek or Star Wars.I hate the idea of forever franchises to begin with, but I doubly hate the idea of forever franchises being raped over and over again.
>>725222065>Is Doom 3 a horror game?No anon, I'd personally classify Doom 3 as a shit game.
>>725221783H4 campaign has had lots of apologists years ago. "Good ideas, emotional moments, at least they were trying it"H5 is 10 years old and I have rarely seen someone actually liking the campaign
>>725222039It has absolutely zero impact. A game being horror and your ability to defend yourself have nothing to do with each other in the slightest. You can have a game where you have no means to defend yourself that is horror, and a game where you can easily kill absolutely everything you come across with no problems whatsoever that is also horror.
>>725222109>Terrifier>HorrorIt's gore porn, this is not horror. The same way SAW is not horror.
>>725222068I have literally done a no upgrades no new suits plasma cutter only run of DS2 out of sheer boredom and autism and you never run out of ammo due to how drops work, Nicole just takes forever to kill at the end since you need to farm ammo from the shadow babbies. I started doing one on DS1 but quit halfway through the medbay out of boredom again and my inventory was literally full of plasma cutter ammo.
>>725222163>The player's ability to feel horror within the supposed horror game is not swayed on any level by having a rocket launcher and an assortment of machine guns in his backpackCome the fuck on.
horror is a platonic ideal that cannot be achieved in the material plane
As slav enjoyer who was born in the country where Halo didn't exist I should say the mental gymnastics of "Halo haters" are hilarious. I assume when entire US played Halo on Xbox, some poorfags didn't have console and their childhood was forever ruined. 4chan's "Halo bad" threads with 3-4 posts were their shrines. It's a trauma they still carry in. Feels good to be beyond all this. Halo? Military SF kino. Multiplayer during Halo's peak (when cheaters didn't exist) was probably insane experience. HL, UT, tribes, doom, quake? Games of childhood.
>>725222239That was your last chance to stop being disingenuous, no more replies for you.
BF1942 are BF2 are slow games.BF > HL trash
>>725211184Halo 4 was 11 years ago and nobody is saying anything other than 4tana was the cutest
>>725222363Your idea of horror seems to begin and end at broken blinky lights and funny noises around a corner. There's no real discussion to be had with you. If you think Terrifier is anything but popcorn slop akin to Final Destination or SAW, then you're just kinda dumb.
>>725222014Why are you so upset I stated simple facts? Timesplitters 2 is so fucking gay it became a meme because everyone's friends group had that 'one kid' orbiter always trying to get everyone to play it with them. That's just how it was back then. So was the feud between professional CS players and Halo players, but at least that was fun instead of just sad.
>>725222425BF is copying COD:MW, which was copying CSIt's at the tail end of the human centipede of corporations trying to chase success
Guilty Spark and The Library are horror games
>>725222152Halo 5's biggest single failing IS the campaign, plain and simple. You'll see people having turned their opinion on multiplayer after all the updates, that Warzone is actually pretty cool past the P2W lootbox elements, that if you're into some hardcore competitive shooter for a console game shit that 5 is pretty tight for it. But no one will probably ever actually like the campaign, simply because there's nothing to really salvage from it. Poor advertising, bad design, a wasted focus on squad co-op, a horribly bad plot with no solid direction or cohesion, Warden Eternal spam, etc. The only reason people even remotely look back on 5 with any "maybe I was too harsh" sentiment is entirely because Infinite soft-rebooted so hard it resolved all of 5's plot hooks off-screen in shitty handwaves, but that ruined Halo Wars 2 in the process as well, so hey.
>>725222340basically, yeah. the only way you didn't get to play halo in the us back when is if you were too much of a social retard to have a friend who had an xbox to play it on, even if you were a poornigger.
>>725222301It isn't in the slightest. You can annihilate everything in the first Silent Hill with the pipe and handgun you acquire within the first few minutes after the prologue, and do it easily (you can also use the kitchen knife if you want but it's annoying and inferior to the pipe you get 5 seconds later). You get more than enough ammo to kill everything in every single classic Resident Evil game, and you get shotguns and explosives in those as well. There are also many horror games where you die instantly if an enemy touches you and have no way to defend yourself at all. It's completely irrelevant.Horror is a theme, an atmosphere, a way of presentation that attempts to inspire fear and dread in the player.Listen to this in a dark room, and keep in mind this is from a game where no enemies are much of a threat to you at all and you have practically infinite ammo and a ton of healing items:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1LDtpowvLbA
>>725222570It's amazing how having to turn the last 2 missions of Halo 2 into an entire game with no writer comes across as a pretty good idea compared to every way that 343 has handled creating a sequel.
>>725220939I was also a psfag and thought Timesplitters was fucking gay. There were a bunch of better FPS games even on playstation, but you're right, there was always "that guy" who kept bugging people about it.
>>725222728>Kitchen knifeyou can't actually unless you feel like resetting the game for a 1/1000 run to get past the first enemy in the diner>t. watched a knife only attempt from a professional runner
Hi /v/ can you recommend me more horror games like Half-Life and Counter Strike 1.3?
>>725222920Dragon Age 2
>>725222739Halo 3 may be a weirdly designed and poorly written experience, but if you're just focused on the shootan and want more Halo, it does that to a T besides Brutes kinda just not being very interesting versus Elites. It's "safe", it's bombastic, it's basically what people wanted for more Halo at its core. 343 tried to experiment too much to leave their own mark on the series, turn it their own direction, and it basically stopped being "more Halo" and tried to be something else entirely. By the time they pissed their drawers and shit their pants to try to go back to "more Halo" with Infinite, they were chopped up, mutilated, and left a shadow of their vapid hopes by Microsoft's contractor policy shit and fucked that up too.Let it be said that 343 as a company brand title deserved what they brought upon themselves, but they didn't deserve the Microsoft shittery.
>>725222728It's the fact that there are enemies that you have to engage with that make it scary though, like it's not scary on its own and there's probably a million other examples of similar music that don't invoke the same feel because you haven't attributed it with a game
>>725222776Killzone was pretty nice, playstation fags finally got a game everyone wanted to play with them, just took a while.
>>725221783It's less to do with time and more to do with the greater industry being shit. If games come out that are worse than it for it to smell of roses. Time helps with this, they're interlinked, or at least seem to be with the way the AAA industry has been and with Indy's not really focusing on competitive FPS.Infinite managed to be better than 5, but if it wasn't you know what'd that do to 5's perception.

>>725222904Yea I should've said "annihilate almost everything", still it's not a matter of combat capability, air screamers can be swatted with the pipe and are very easy to shoot down or avoid, the knife is just the shittiest meme weapon to use mainly because it's range is so bad it can barely hit most enemies at all.>>725223023It's absolutely scary on it's own. The feeling you get from that music has nothing to do with it being from a videogame, ambient horror music is a genre in itself.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hTFYn0fGRNM
>>7252108944 sucked5's campaign sucked but the MP and forge were excellentHaven't played Infinite's campaign but same deal as 5 with the MPI've been saying this since each game came out and have been a fan of the series since 2003>>725211184>>725221783>>725222453Bafflingly, there are a lot of people who defend H4's campaign>>725212904CoD 4/MW did better then Halo 3 due to being multiplat, but they were competitive. But wheras it took years for Halo to put out the next mainline game, CoD had yearly releases and kept building momentum which allowed it to overtake Halo as the top FPS, especially also since that next mainline entry, Reach, was controversial. Then Halo 4 came out and was even more contentious, and then the Xbone bombedPeople will blame shit 343i did with Halo 5 and Infinite and those are indeed factors (Infinite especially botched a perfect launch opportunity since people liked the playtests and BF2042 and the CoD game at the time were getting shit on, but it couldn't put out new content fast enough), but for the most part Halo's spot as a major, industry leading franchise being lost was sealed well over a decade ago
>>725223237Why is this delisted now?>14 fucking years agoJesus Christ
>>725209927/thread
>>725209827I still remember how /v/ mocked Halo and laughed out any newfag normalfag who tried to talk about it back in the day.
>>725223084Halo 4 is never going to escape being a crappy hybrid of Reach and MW2 though, no matter how bad things get it will still be a forgettable mediocre game among its peers, not helped by the primary way to play it now being in a collection where people choose to play 3 and Reach instead.
>>725223237The parody videos were funny in the day but honestly, they ring hollow when you realize that past at best a brief control tutorial at the start of a couple games, the only thing that actually stuck in the industry were waypoint markers for everything. People acted like Duty Calls was some massive statement on the industry as a whole, when in reality you just had the obvious Call of Duty, and Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter on the side, actually fitting the bill for the time, and that's being generous. The complaints of the loss of old-school shooters ended up getting hit with the retro indie boom and people sucking the Doom reboot's cock off like it's some euphoric experience.Most of these parodies end up feeling like it's literally just people angry about CoD and then applying that onto everything else.
>>725223678all shooters are normal fag
>>725223678i'll take things that didn't happen for $500, tom
>>725219472While I had and played a good amount of Halo CE on Xbox but really my main memories are from playing the PC version. Yeah Gearbox broke the graphics but holy shit, Custom Edition was something else. I was scrolling through some old files on my Data drive and I still have all my old faces saved. And my CD key. I went and downloaded the ISO from Internet Archive along with Custom Edition and the most recent patches for both. Got them installed and working too. Holy shit that port is so antiquated compared to the MCC. Can only go up to 1080p and the fov is weird. I wanna set CE back up too but I doubt it's populated considering you can mod MCC nowadays.
>>725223703Are you joking? 99% of the crap that video is mocking is still present these days. Every time I pirate a modern AAA game I either need to delete or rename video files or download a mod to skip the trillion intros.
>>725223237Based video>>725223703Cringe post
>Halo still mocked for being slow, called a zoomer game>Battlefield recently had an uproar over the movement tech being too fast, called zoomer movementWhich is it?
>>725223819This site used to be different. Halofaggotry, DBZfaggotry, Narutofaggotry weren't allowed.
>>725223905>99% of the crap that video is mocking is still present these daysYou don't even get notable shooter campaigns in the AAA space that aren't Call of Duty or Battlefield as the object of such parody in the first place. The only real exception to the rule is Doom and the modern Doom clones. How can you really declare it prevails an industry that doesn't even make much of that kind of game at all anymore?
>>725209827Unironically, Better gunfights than most PC FPS of it's time.
>>725224179It's chatgpt.
>>725224348>this doesn't happen in AAA games outside of (biggest AAA games on the market), it's not a thing in (indie games) so it doesn't happen!Shut the fuck up retard
>>725224513Call of Duty and Battlefield haven't been the biggest boys for a long time, it's been overwritten by the fad genres like battle royales and hero shooters.Why do you think that CoD dipped their feet into cross over slop and Battlefield tried to be a hero shooter in 2042?
>>725209827The mocking was coming from people who got tricked into buying PS2's. Back then it fucking baffled me that people were spending any time playing garbage like Final Fantasy X while I had this glorious fucking game in my console.
>>725218610>Half Life 2, a demonstrably worse game in every single category compared to Halo.Utterly retarded, and I fucking despise HL2
>>725224513Most shooters either abandoned campaigns, or are open world or some gimmicky shit that doesn't fit the purview. Literally, RETURN TO THE COMBAT ZONE shooters are a dying breed on a fundamental level to an excessive degree. It's not profitable or seen as desirable, the closest you really get to this shit is Crossfire X which crashed and burned altogether and 98% of you don't even know it existed. People can lambast the BF6 campaign for keeping the trend alive, but what other shooters fit the bill in the past year or two?
>>725224745> tricked into buying PS2xbox was the type of scam console that clueless relatives would buy for children, like a Segait's no surprise that Microsoft had a hand in the Sega Dreamcast
NOOOOO YOU CAN'T JUST REGENERATE HEALTH YOU HAVE TO FIND IT!
>>725225123NOOOO YOU CANT JUST AVOID DAMAGE YOU NEED TO TANK IT BECAUSE YOU ARE PLAYING ON A CONTROLLER LIKE A RETARD
>>725225092How was XBOX a scam?
>>725225212But I like playing tanks in my RPGs...
>>725225212>NOOOO YOU CANT JUST AVOID DAMAGE
>can avoid damage>still needs a health barI don't understand.
>>725225348and yet you don't regenerate health in Blood, curious...
>>725225019Shooters will live on in indies and AAs. AAA can die for all I care.
>>725225348CRUDUX CRUOMARIMAX AND FEAR BOOKS
>>725212904Shitbox sales cratered and PC has actually good games.
>>725209827The new grift is that everything that requires effort is for trannies. Even modern fps are less casual than Halo, like there is no way a halotard is gunna be able to wrap their head around valorant, so everything outside of their tiny bubble is trannies
>>725224745It's the other way around, PC, PS2, GCN, and GBA were all must gets. Xbox sucked and I hated that it stole some exclusives tanking many franchises into their graves. DC was even better despite dying too soon. Xbox's current death should have happened years ago, honestly.
>>725225391you couldn't in Combat Evolved, either. gee, i wonder why people are annoyed it's missing in the remakeand when they did add regenerating health in the sequel, it was too little health, so every enemy pops you like a grape on Heroic and Legendary if they popped your shields already
>725225546Still ban evading I seehttps://arch.b4k.dev/v/search/image/P3vN0dq9zcG-vnFxZC9p0A/
>>725225715>he thinks bans exist on 4chan
>>725209927Doom/DukeNukem3d/Heretic were all babies first fps for a generation of kids that were born in the mid to late 80s grew up in the 90s. Everyone I knew had Doom or Heretic demo that was like 8-9 levels on floppy and very kid with a divorced dad had DukeNukum3d. All of the babies first fps critique on Halo was just late genX and early millennial wanting to shit on something popular with a younger generation and now people that hate microsoft and gen z have picked up on it. Same thing happened with CoD4 and Fortnite and Minecraft back in their heyday. If you have any problem with any game listed above that's great but actually list your critique and don't just say Babies first...
>>725226343Halo was also inferior to all of them, hence why people mockingly call it Babbie's First FPS, because the only reason so many retards liked it was because it was their first exposure to the genre.You fucking retard.
>>725226343its designed for consoles which inherently has limitations because of that, slow movespeed, strong autoaim, 2 weapon limit, low skill ceilinghalo was great for what it was, a well optimised game with fun ai and campaign with high production value, unfortunately like with all things that appeal to the lowest common goleminator it set the standard for what fps was for 20 years
>>725226343Based.
>low skill ceiling
>>725226343Halo was made for gimped as console on a console more gimped than even its competition while being dumbed down heavily, by design, to appeal to the most casual non-gaming audience possible. Halo is the literal Baby's First FPS.
>>725227118>>725226887>>725226617All me
>>725226617>Halo was inferior to a fps with no vertical axisNo>Halo was inferior to a fantasy fps where 1/3 of the weapons all feel like the same machine gun with slightly different rates of fire and DPS.No>Halo is inferior to a corny, dirty game with strippers and a jetpack.Agreed.
>>725227201kek based
>>725225092>>725225602Yeah? Why aren't you playing jrpgs anymore then?I got the conclusion that those games sucked massive fucking dick back then. Because I had an actual humans right console, the fucking Xbox.And I finished FFX by the way. I would never put that slideshow next to Halo. lmao
People who say old games are better are geriatric boomers who feel nostalgic.
>>725209827dont like fps's but like halo a little bit. definitely like it less now though
>>725228197>Why aren't you playing jrpgs anymore then?Who says I don't?>Because I had an actual humans right console, the fucking Xboxlmao
>>725228264>nostalgicI can play classic Halo right now and compare it to modern slop.
>>725209927FPBPNOBODY CARES WHAT OLD RETARDS HAVE TO SAYHALO CE IS BETTER THAN HALF LIFE 2, HALO 2 AND HALO 3 ARE BETTER THAN HALF LIFE 2 BTW.
>>725228776You statistically aren't.>lmaoI said the same when I saw Splinter Cell running on PS2.You had online back then? No, you didn't. You were too busy pretending to like SotC running at 8fps.
I like counterstrike but desu just play counterstrike if you want mouse aim point and click gameplayhalo is a million times more fun and interesting than other shooters that try to add features beyond clicking
>Gaylo zoomers get gaped in here>run to /vr/ to shit that board up instead>>>/vr/12158710
>>725230121>Thought a thread like this, even shitting on it, would be banned for "not retro">Forgot that PS2, Gamecube and Xbox are now allowed thereBros...
>>725230104In what way?
>>725215067>this chart>again/pol/ newfags were not that 2015 wave. Those were /v/ newfags, and /pol/ isn't "responsible" for 4chan's decline or whatever you think it is, that is still /v/.
>>725230297If the jannies weren't faggots, the Xbox 360 would be allowed too.
>>725209827fps games got much worse
>>725230668The 1-2 combo of The Fappening closely followed by Gamergate ruined this site forever.
>>725209827What universe did you come from? People used to freaking love Halo.
>>725209827It's a good game. That's all. And people only made fun of it for being a console fps. Generally speaking everyone loved Halo, obviously. So the idea that things have changed at all is ridiculous. It's a good and popular game and always has been... so. But good work getting 300+ replies on making a nonsense statement.
>>725209927Yup. Baby incels grew up and got louder to voice their trash opinions. Chad millennials and gen x bros will continue to call out shit taste and stomp them off the board like the good ol days.
>>725209927FPBP
>>725226617It was not only their first exposure to the genre, but on consoles. Halo on PC lived a quiet life. All the hullabaloo was on the consoles.When Halo 2 came out the console nature of the series was apparent.
>>725216997Dragon quest was literally designed to be baby's first rpg.
