How bad was the Halo 2 crunch? Why did it take two years for Bungie to realize their original vision for Halo 2 was not realistic?
I don't know, I wasn't there bro. Maybe they were still high off how much cocaine they could buy after the Halo 1 success.
>>12768676>How bad was the Halo 2 crunch?So bad that everyone with ambition fucked off or phoned it in for Halo 3's development and we wound up with lazy garbage. You can tell Halo 2 was not playtested whatsoever and that the last portions of the game especially are falling apart at the seams.>Why did it take two years for Bungie to realize their original vision for Halo 2 was not realistic?Great question there. It seems like a case of them, fresh off Halo 1 and high on their own farts, trying their best to make something out of the Xbox's league work only to have the looming deadline and pressure from higher-ups suddenly shoved in their face leading for them to scramble and do whatever they could to finish it.

>Why did it take two years for Bungie to realize their original vision for Halo 2 was not realistic?This always confused me too. You would think bungie would have a deep understanding of what the xbox could and couldn't do
>>12768676My dad's uncle worked for Bungie and he said there was pizza and mountain dew every day and every friday they hired hookers to dress up as Cortana and build up morale for the crew
