The original Halo composer speaks up.https://deidetected.com/marty-odonnell-gamers-must-fight-back/>I believe the enthusiasm for the re-release of the original Halo is in large part due to the wokification of the gaming industry. After years of gamers fighting the infiltration of DEI in the industry, we are finally winning.>I saw firsthand the beginning of DEI in the industry. Instead of hiring people who played videogames, corporations began requiring “diversity” at the expense of the quality of games. The corporate demand of hiring quotas meant more and more employees in charge of creating games not only didn’t play games, they didn’t even like video games and they certainly didn’t understand the audience.>Bungie’s motto went from “We make games we want to play” to “We create worlds that inspire friendships.”>The results from forcing DEI on gaming companies were, predictably, disastrous.>The embrace of DEI led to a stoic hero such as Master Chief to becoming a weak, self-doubting shell of the character that made him, and Halo, so popular to begin with. And don’t get me started on that rainbow armor.>These crazy changes to games aren’t just limited to Halo, obviously. In Dragon Age: The Veilguard, you could have Rooks identify as trans or non-binary. Call of Duty introduced a non-binary character, as well.>It’s hard for gamers to immerse themselves in a game when they are required to choose a “body type” instead of gender and provide pronouns for their character at the start.He's also gonna run for Congress.
Is Halo a good series?
>>725989581I never got a single lick of DEI or any diversity perks and im a le 56% mystery meat in fact I'm playing on Dante must die mode because I am brown but everyone expects me to behave like the whitest of white men
Pretty sure halo became dead not because of DEI but because bungie stopped making it and microsoft decided to make 343 to fuck it all up
>>725989809No, but the music is very good.
>>725989581This dude's a fucking retard if he thinks Halo is going to be good. It's the same people who shit the bed with the Halo series for 15 years.
>>725989809it's the best
if you don't like this thread kill yourself
>>725989581He's great. I agree completely. What a great guy. I hope he makes a positive change in the world. I love his music too.
If trans identity were real then all you would need to feel "affirmed" is "male" or "female" gender at character creation. I mean you're REALLY "female" right? Surely you don't need to SPECIFICALLY IDENTIFY as "trans" right?
>>725989581Good, GOP needs someone who hasn't sucked another mans dick in charge.
Friendly reminder that jews have given their top goys permission to axe DEI because (a) they need whites re-engaged in a culture that is beginning to prepare them for upcoming war and (b) DEI has succeeded in its role in destroying white nations and is no longer needed.
>>725989581>composerfuck off, i hate "music" and "audio" in games
>>725989581He's a zionist.
had me until he praised trump and said he will run for congressamerimutts everyone
>>725991460>poketroon opinion
Martybros...
>>725989809No>>725989581Fuck off, Marty. I'm done with politics and its faggot pedo ass politicians. Retire, you annoying old has-been. The remainder of your career can die with the AAA slop you created.
>against DEI>massive zionistAbout as schizophrenic as being pro-Palestine while also supporting jew-run Ukraine, but I guess that's Weimerica in a nutshell.
>>725992217>guy who spends all of his time onlineyou should try going outside instead of spending all of your time on /pol/ and twitter.
>>725992314>clicking on an inherently political thread>being mad at someone other than the OP for politicsMaybe go play sudoku.
>>725989809Halo 1-Reach was an incredible experience and anyone saying otherwise was someone that missed out and had major sourgrapesHalo 2 custom games with modded maps was insane (no your custom quake or counterstrike maps aren't the same thing) and the same goes for Halo 3 forge and theatre. It was a world wide event and you had to be there nothing since has compared
>>725992482touched a nerve?
>>725992148>epstein was le ba-
>>725992314Nigger have YOU been outside? Shit is fucked.
>>72599196320% is actually way better than I would’ve thought desu
>>725992596Yes, he was a blackmailing child raping kike, him being racially aware does not make him good. Stop trying to make deals with the devil.
Women and cuck faggot men ruin everything, and I mean everything.
>>725992596>"delayed gratification">lusts after children
>>725992687whenever i go outside a jew tries to hold me down and circumcise me. /pol/ was right, why didnt i listen...
I mean he has a point but re-releasing Halo with botched graphics made by indians is not really "winning" in my book
>>725992917Move out of New York if you want to keep your dick skin, those tunnel jews are no joke.
tunnel jew just flew over my house and stole my foreskin
>>725989809It was.
>>725992596As based as he was for wanting to help my people, I can't respect a man who sucks off another man, man.
>>725989581wait...John 1:17>For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christholy fuark
>Master Chief was space Jesus all alongWOWIE ZOWIE!
>>725989809Yes and no. Halo 2 and 3 suffer hard from plot bloat, so the pacing was fucked in those games. People were not happy with Halo 2 ending on a cliffhanger, but now with Halo 3 long since released most have moved on and forgotten about it. Halo Reach and ODST are fine stand-alone plots. All games are worth playing. Halo 2 reintroduced dual wielding from its predecessor Marathon 2. Halo 3 gets a little experimental at times with the usage of "tools" but all 3 main games give a consistently excellent experience overall and iterate on each other well. Halo 4, 5 and Infinite suffer hard from lack of clear direction in terms of both gameplay and plot and are largely mediocre games.
>>725992729this, i started looking at the bottom of the list first.
>Halo is bad because… of le DEI!Nah, western games are bad because western companies are inherently structured to be bad. And I say this as a nigger hater. American Capitalism is dead. Marty just seems to be your typical conservative/lolbert doofus who still believes America is exceptional. It’s a shame too since the music he made for Halo is amazing.
>>725990104And who was running 343 and their priorities? They did a political purge, and added a bunch of people who hate the millitary, and put as their top priority diversity in hiring. DEI is directly related to the low quality of later halo games. Take Bonnie Ross and Melissa Boone. To get an idea of what skills Boone has for example, I'm pulling just a keynote speech from her from 3 years ago. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZT9Oq-n9glAHere's her doing outreach.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JP7cpmrID_MBoon really isn't a technical specialist, has never said anything I can find about gameplay. Doesn't have biz background. Background is social science. He also claims nerd cred, which I do believe, but I would bet my reproduction phaser 2 that her core interest is not millitary sci fi.
I'm never voting republican after that stupid nigger bitch mcconnell banned hemp because of nigger alcohol lobbyists and my state republicans won't properly legalize marijuanaparty of small government my fucking ass
>>725989809Its pure unfiltered American kino
>>725994667fucking druggy fuck >just legalize it manand be like third world shitholes like portugal who depenalized it fuck you scum
>>725994747the bungie trilogy that is
>>725994667Fell For It Again Award
>>725989809No. It has some good games. particularly the early ones. >>725991118I thought it was DEI going all free palestine that was the trigger.
>>725994667Based can't wait to vote out my senators
Halo REACH needed at least 4 years, maybe 5 years to florish, even the standard 3 years between releases as a launch title on Xbox One.
>>725989581The only video games that are actually woke are those who include the cancer known as (((bisexual))) representation.Avoid any video game series with at least one installment featuring that garbage.
>>725989581>>I saw firsthand the beginning of DEI in the industry. Instead of hiring people who played videogames, corporations began requiring “diversity” at the expense of the quality of games. The corporate demand of hiring quotas meant more and more employees in charge of creating games not only didn’t play games, they didn’t even like video games and they certainly didn’t understand the audience.This is simply irrefutable. The modern vidya industry doesn’t play games, a lot of them even actively dislike games and the gamer community. I don’t give a shit what color or gender vidya devs are, but I swear a lot of shit that comes out these days is made by people who haven’t so much as played the first stage of Candy Crush. I’ve never seen a single producer industry more out of touch with their consumer base than the vidya industry. Thats the biggest problem with modern games. People who make games don’t play games
>>725990104>microsoft decided to make 343 to fuck it all upWhen they handed it to 343 the making of halo 4 documentary they made the director bragged about how half their employees couldn't communicate with each other because they spoke multiple languages they couldn't understand and needed different translators for each language which added so much diverse experience to the dev team.
>>725989809No, the first game was the best ans the rest are rushed out by comitee blockbuster slop to sell Xbox Live to the same retards that buy COD and FIFA every year nowadays.
>>725994667I'm never voting for either of them, they're both led by faggots made to make our lives worse. My gut always told me to hate gays, glad I listened to it.
>>725992526>no your custom quake or counterstrike maps aren't the same thingYeah, they were better, still are
>>725995197Yeah Microsoft loves outsourcing to cheap labor in the name of "diversity" and still do now.
abortion bad, drugs bad, trickle down economy doesn't work, mass immigration bad, guns bad unless given out to qualified individuals under supervision, cheap education and healthcare managed by government, more power to unions, more public infrastructure like transportation, reindustrialise but don't antagonise your allies, regulate corporations, police isn't le bad but need proper training, cut off that DEI bullshit and treat everyone equally, there are only two sexesthere i fixed your country americans
>>725989809
>>725994797Legalize it but make doing it in and/or being high and retarded in public and any crimes caused by it have the death penalty. Nobody gives a shit about people who do drugs privately and behave themselves.
>>725995183>Trannyism isn't cancer, bisexuals areYou're both cancer you castrated faggot.
>>725995395>guns bad unless given out to qualified individuals under supervisionBasically just don't give any guns to brown people.
>>725994797As opposed to the glorious African nations where it's a death penalty offence?Cunt you're more black than a tranny is suicidal.I mean that literally.The USA is more than 41% non-white.
LGBT should be wiped out and women should be made into sex slaves and stripped of their clothing for me pleasure. Our mistake as men was not constantly removing more rights from women and making them our personal slave whores. We gave women too much freedom, why, why did we give women freedom and not make them our personal cum dumps, why?????!!!!!!!
>>725995509The KKK had the right ideaAmerican cities devolved into Detroit tier shitholes after they got fucked by the Fed.
>>725995642*men
>>725989809it was
>>725995642This but also men who aren't physically and mentally capable aren't allowed to breed.Also no ugly men can breed.Why the fuck would we want ugly, weak, and retarded genetics polluting our sex slaves?I don't want an ugly slave just because some retarded fucking munchkin-man thought in the glorious masculine utopia he'd get free women.Nah cunt, if you're an ugly fuck you should only exist to make the women glad that the men fucking them are far sexier than the uglies.
>>725995643We should've stayed individual colonies, there'd be no civil war, no gigantic federal government etc, the savage worshippers could turn their colonies into recreations of the congo without forcing it on the rest of us.
>>725995395>cheap education and healthcare managed by government, more power to unions, more public infrastructure like transportation, regulate corporationsall of that is gommunism and is therefore never happening.
>>725994667you are a shortsighted retard
>>725995443Ok, but the same thing for alcohol.
>>725996043If it were up to me I'd apply that rule to any public anti social behavior regardless of the underlying cause whether because someone is drunk high or insane.
>>725989809It's a wasted series. Only the first two are good games. The rest range from mediocre to outright shit.
>>725995509>just hand out rifles to retards as long as they're "white" brono. mandatory military training for high schoolers so they can learn proper handling of firearms, only sell guns to people who have passed some sort of test like a car license. anything more than a double barrel has to be stored in a guarded facility except when used. even machine guns and artillery can be legal if owned by a militia.also recognise palestine as a state so we can see israel seetheeducation should focus on STEM. more PE because americans are fat.fix retarded zoning laws. when are they gonna build the highspeed rail?marijuana isn't a soft drug, drug dealers should be harshly punished and anyone caught using them should be regularly investigated by police tto make sure they're not on something
>>725996504Why would you build high speed rail? All that would do is make it cheaper for urban violence to get into our communities
>>725996812amerimutt mindset of "nobody outside my suburban shithole in the middle of the desert matters" never ceases to amaze me
Kat Abughazaleh is also running for Congress. We will have a cute gamer girl in Congress.
>>725996812Low trust society: the post
>>725996504>Recognize Palestine>Put every jew in a camp and send them to Palestine>Nuke Israel the next day>See the nuclear fallout kill everyone in Palestine
>>725996923It'a boomer mentality>Think of the poor brown people just wanting a better live bring them all here>Near me? Fuck that!
>>725996504>>725996923
>>725996504>noNah. Statistically white crime with guns is infinitesimal in america and filtering with an IQ and physiognomy test (see mass shooters) would prevent 90% of them, the remaining 10% would mostly be crimes of passion and suicides that would happen regardless. Its not hard to use a gun if you're not retarded.The rest of what you said is insane and like the gun rules completely ignores demographic realities.
>>725996812What are you worried about? Trump's gonna fix everything, remember?
why don't they just station armed guards inside trains if the crime in public transit is so bad anyways? why do you allow people to do drugs there?>but that's le heccin' right wing fascism/left wing gommunism!!!>>725997339>Its not hard to use a gun if you're not retarded.why do i see news of something retarded like 6 year old american shooting his sister every week?none of what i said is insane kek
lmao i just remembered one time we were at this total dorks house smoking weed and he was loading up hacked multiplayer maps, his dad fucking comes in and starts being all dad about shit and then makes us stand in the driveway while he said a bunch of boring gay old shit, i was pretty much laughing the entire time, and just walked away midsentence halo is so fucking trash
>>725997487why don't you worry about muslim rape gangs and tv licenses and leave the topic of firearms to those that can actually own them
>>725997534That's nice sweety. Run along now!
>>725997487>why do i see news of something retarded like 6 year old american shooting his sister every week?Because retards and brown people get access to guns which is why I suggested banning brown people from owning them and instituting an IQ test for white people even though its honestly a net benefit to society to allow such darwin awards to happen.
>>725997679american "whites" leave their kids inside a car on a hot summer day and let them fry to death. i wouldn't trust them near rifles
>>725997781>"whites"so brown people and retards, who I've been saying this whole time shouldn't own guns. Glad we agree.
Lol @ gamers who think there is a political solution. Just shit on all these people and point out every subversion they put in gaming. There is no art. Only politics. There is no product. Only politics.
>>725995395Abortion rights are whatever, I don't care and most arguments against our are just religious in nature and should fuck off, but i largely agree overall and would accept your proposal, despite that reservation.
>>725997487>why do you allow people to do drugs there?one side thinks that doing something would be too expensive and the other side thinks that would be too mean to the druggies
>>725998286>Abortions NOW>WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH PEOPLE TO REPLACE THE NEXT GENERATION WE NEED MORE BROWNS IN THE COUNTRY
I want to fuck and marry Martin O'Donnell.
>>725990814You can't logic them away, buddy. The Flood are a one for one trans allegory.
>>725998623please don't be trans
>>725994667>muh mcconnellthat nigga can't even go two weeks without having a stroke and wont even be in congress soon, settle your horses
>>725989581i like the guy for his music but hes become a basedfag red pill faggot
Put me down for no game developers in Congress, thanks.
Medals are an important part of Halo!
>>725994667Fuck no I'm tired of smelling it everywhere in my shitty city and the fact that niggers ooze this stench every where they go.
>>726000619>becomeretard. marty has always been on the right.
>>725990041There were benefits, you just missed the boat. it's called intersectionalism.
>>725989581He saw that the trump admin retards were posting halo memes and immediately revved up that gift He has been irrelevant, failed his last political run and will remain irrelevant when this one fails tooAmazing music though
>>725989581Marty made great music, but he's also an insufferable asshole and I'm not talking about his politics. He's just a narcissistic douche and he was fired from Bungie because of that.
>>725989809only play 1-3, odst, and reach then never acknowledge the rest of the series ever again
>>725993270>toxotrannyNow I know it's shit.
>>726002068If he's an actual gamer, he should just ignore the series entirely, it was good when Bungie made it, it wasn't good when Microsoft made it, retards that defend both should honestly have an axe thrown at their heads for being as insufferable as Marty himself.
>>725989581>Chuddy O'Donnell
>>725989581Marty O’Donnell is a chud???
>>725989809Halo 4 is the start. Title Update, otherwise TU, is just conjecture. This Ring with be destroyed and every Microsoft CEO will enjoy it.
>>725990814No no they’re just as real as actual men and women, that’s why everyone needs to pretend they are and never ever ever use the wrong pronoun or they’ll kill a bunch of children because they also happen to see right through their little costume
>>725989581Marty reminds me of one of those guys who peaked in High School and can never let it go.
>>725989581The emperor has no clothes
>>725989809Halo 1 was good, the rest are mixed.
>>725990041You are also part of the group of have naughts. It breaks racial barriers. Welcome brother.
>>725989581He makes good points but at the end of the day he's a musicianHe has nothing to do with making good games. He was brought in to make games better.
>>725989581based Marty

reminds me of that mangaka that ran for parliment against censorship
>>725989581>Gamers must fight backHow does he propose we do this exactly?I'm doing something I can do, personally, I'm writing the kind of sci-fi novel I'd want to read...But how does he actually propose people "fight back" against DEI and woke culture?Don't tell me he thinks the government will do anything useful...
>>725989581>Went from making beloved soundtracks for some of the most successful video games to writing a post on chud.comWhat happened?
>>725989581>the wokification of the gaming industryAww, man. I hate when my games get stir fried.
>>725989581Couldn't he find a better platform? I can't take fucking deidetected seriously and I'd consider myself pretty chuddy
>>726009704>What happened?The last 15 years, unfortunately.
>>725989809Under Bungie yes. Anyone who says otherwise is a seething PC contrarian.

test
There were 6 halo games in no time at all and people got tired of the franchise.Not every franchise can last perpetually like Mario. Gears of War, Halo, Final Fantasy. People just stop giving a shit after a decade or twoTintin and Popeye were the biggest cartoons in the world for quite a while but people move on.
>>725989581How do you suggest gamers fight back without fedposting Gamers won't do shit
>>725991118Yeah well they're doing an absolutely terrible job of actually getting rid of all the verminous culture so I don't see this plan working.At least not on me or anyone I care about.
>>725990041You missed the boat mate. Sorry to say.
Gamers are spineless retards.Fighting back is extremely easy: DO NOT BUY.But companies have been introducing more and more money gauging while producing increasingly shit quality games.And yet gamers keep paying.
DEI wouldn't be necessary if everyone would just be me.Just saying.
>>725989581He's a fucking composer not a game developer why the fuck should anyone care what he has to say
>>725989581Wow, either Marty has a really bad take here. Or this interview just sucks. Because it makes him look like a racist, homophobe. Trying to virtue signal to a bunch of maga chuds. Either way, not a good look.
>>725989581>washed up has been forced to dance for the chuds to cling to his last strands of relevancySad!
>>725989581Little did we all realize back in the 2000s that we were at the forefront of modern Nazism, just by becoming fascinated with the games industry. By 2014 we went through cognitive dissonance of being told what we liked and how we talked was fundamentally wrong.10 years on, I am fully at peace with the fact that I prefered when society was 90% white and all the entertainment consumed was for white, straight men, and that the best creative ideas and best team cohesion came from having such a demographic, by developers who love computers, to gamers who like gaming.To us, and those like us.
>>725989581Based chud.
>>725990041Mutts consider arabs and hispanics white...
>>725994912>I thought it was DEI going all free palestine that was the trigger.It literally was.Pride in June always came with gigantic swaths of people in downtown copenhagen for the entire month. I interned there in 2018 and felt socially pressured by women to attend a transgender bingo night. Just because it was Pride Month. A HS female friend texted me that since I was in the city, I should come watch her DJ. I chickened out because the idea of going to a lesbian DJ event sounds undignified to me.But guess what. 2024, even before Trump 2.0, the head of arrangements at the Annual Pride Month organization said "FREE PALESTINE" and suddenly, and I mean literally EVERYONE, who sponsors the event quit.There was the same hype for Pride 2018-2024 and in a snap, it was gone, just because the gay Pride CEO guy said "free palestine" and started complaining when he got pushback that it had nothing to do with LGBT.And now it's completely dead. Not a trace left of it. There wasn't even "pride month" this year. My Job Centre contact said I should seek "ESG Courses" but suddenly all my friends in the business are going "WHAT? Don't listen to her. ESG is fucking dead in 2025". That's how you know.
