Halo doesn't have quirky millennial self inserts that ruin your immersionCome home, Metroidfriends
>>725959575Unscslop.
>>725960284>Metrosexual so tilted he can't spell rightSad!
>>725959575Literally every marine in halo 1 until odst is a quirky millennial thoughESPECIALLY odst
>>725960964Nah.
>>725960372Fake fan
>>725961161Elites in halo 2 are like that as well. Brutes in 3 too. If you don't like it, you don't like halo.
>>725961168>nuhalo versionAtriox and Promethean Commanders upon ye
>>725959575Cortana
>>725959575I've played Halo 1, 3, ODST and Reach, and had zero amount of fun all tallied up
>>725961324Nah. Halo predates reddit. And the people who made it weren't Millenials. The style of dialogue came from the jingoist culture of the time, and 80's and 90's action movies. Nah. It's too old to be reddit quirky. Except for ODST.
>>725959575Funny enough I actually like Cheif the most in the first game, he's very deadpan and snarky he's not like that in any other Halo.
>>725961827Try not playing timidly next time
>>725963851The thing about reddit/MCU humor is it's not actually funny and seems to mostly exist to snap you out of the scenario. Chief never says anything out of character or unfunny in Halo 1.
>>725962006halo 2 definitely feels like proto MCU or star wars second trilogy space saga shit though. they got their shit back together with halo 3 and ODST and refined it with reach.
>>725965723No. Not at all.
>>725965835https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ePLDO68lcA4if something screams "game of its time" more than this
>>725959575Yeah, you're gay. Sorry.
>>725966341That is definitely of its time, but it's a very specific Pre-MCU, pre-Reddit, mid-00's emo niche. And it's still cool, frankly.
>>725959575Infinite did, get fucked
Halo doesn't have much of anything really.
Halo 4 and onward are dogshit.
>>725959575What is 343 Guilty Spark
>>725959575>Come home, MetroidfriendsYour 343fags came to Retro and ruin shit
hmm hmhm hmm~
>>725971289C3P0 if he were psychotic.
>>725959575I better not tell you about Niko and Lessa. I really enjoyed those books
>>725959575Halo has the opposite side of Gen X/millenial narrative pitfall where it feels the need to explain everything and bring in characters and story from expanded universe crap and spin-offs to "unite" the franchise.There's a reason that, despite Reach being dogshit, people still liked it; it didn't ape the books or pat you on the back for reading it
>>725971997>where it feels the need to explain everything and bring in characters and story from expanded universe crap and spin-offs to "unite" the franchise.Only if you count the 343i games.
I already like both Halo and Metroid. The good ones...
>>725965187I dont recall chief ever saying anything to be funny. Its more of cheesy cool guy lines. Only Johnson of the named characters tried to say funny lines.
>>725959575>soldiers that follow you around and talkHalo has done this since the first game
>>725971997Reach was fun. Its only hated for puritism autism when abilities were hardly even used.
>>725959575I don't think the Halo and the Bing Wahoo fanbase overlaps in the slightest.
>>725972150Yea you're right actually. The only jokes I actually remember from him are both non-verbal. Anon pulling stuff out of his ass I guess. >>725972162Thing is they're useful and likeable, and you won't get a fail state if they die.
>>725972480> get tank > 5 soldiers > 1 for turret> 2 sniper rifles> 2 rocket launcher > yep its gaming time
>>725959575someone post the gay mexican from infinite.
You now remember the Pilot.
>>725959575Egghead
>>725973310This character was 100% written by a woman he bitched so much
I guess you forgot about Chief's and Joyeuse's discussion about the Skimmers when they first appeared in Halo Infinite, huh?
>>725959575GAYLO
>>725960964If Halo is Quirky Millennial then both Aliens and Predator would have to be also.
As a fan of Metroid and Halo, I hope that one day both our tribes will regain our former glory.
>>725973708Nobody talking about Halo means anything past the Bungie Era unless explicitly stated.
>>725972138
>>725973992I don't need that. I just want them to stop adding bad shit to their names.
>>725959575>playing 343i HaloCome home, white man.
>>725974134To be fair, OP's image is promotional art for Halo Wars, which was still Bungie era.
>>725959575Yeah, it has a whiny loser instead>>725973310
>>725974041>little helmet>big gunbased and cute
>MILLENNIAL MILLENNIAL MILLENNIAL>BOOMER BOOMER BOOMER>ZOOMER ZOOMER ZOOMERJust wordfilter this shit already. Jesus.
>>725973654They are all written by women because they think its normal for your brain to turn off when the silent protag doesnt have character drama.
>>725974134reminder that you can download the original halo ce, launch it, go on multiplayer, pick a server and play it. literally no workarounds, its still working and there's still some people playing
>>725973891It is because those terms have no concrete meaning.Millennials aren't the first generation to talk like that and they aren't the last.
>>725974621Millenials aren't even responsible for "Millenial writing". That'd be Gen X.
>>725975194idgaf what you call itthe point is halo isn't all serious, there are mountains of brevity delivered by quirky charactersi suspect the reason the library is so hated is because is has no brevity343gs and two betrayals have very few grunts
>>725975491Guilty Sparks says a lot of silly shit during the Library. The level is just bad.
>>725975594He's kind of a creep more than silly. It's not serious but it's not brevity. He's cold.
>>725975710"This portal is the first of ten!" is 100% dry humor.
>>725975491Wit and comedy aren't the problem. It's specifically this brand of ironic comedy that's meant to snap you out of whatever you're enjoying, a la Joss Whedon Marvel Movies.
>>725975793I guess it's funny if you can't take anything in life seriously. If that's the case, you should talk to someone about it. You can't be a father with that attitude.
>>725975956I think you might have autism, Anon.
>>725959575>quirky millennial self inserts that ruin your immersion
>>725972267Yeah the only Halo games I like are CE, ODST and Reach. 2 is anti-fun and 3 is better but doesn't quite recapture the magic of CE.
>>725974016Shut it, your series is dead and turned into a Marvel quip machine before Metroid Prime 4, go fuck yourself.
