75% done with the "reset" at Xbox, 268 roles eliminated at Halo Studios, and Activision is tackling the future of this franchise. How are we feeling about Asha's decisions?
Obsidian is a joke of a studio. I’m not excited for anything they make. Avowed and outer worlds taught me what they are capable of
I really hope we still get halo 2 and 3 remakes, halo 4 and 5 remakes that push them closer to bungie lore would be even better. I genuinely want a modernized halo saga where all the games play very similarly, you can play them without thinking, this game clearly came out in 2001, this game clearly came out in 2007, this game clearly came out in 2015, yk?
My concern would be if there is still a compelling story to be told in the halo universe. I guess you could build something around the endless or the banished but not sure you can get 1-3 games off those plots.
Am I the only one seeing bethesda absorbing obsidian as a bad thing? Bethesda still gonna pump out broken, greedy releases. O was excited for obsidian fallout but it'll just be more technically poor crap.
So Obsidian gets to make a Fallout game but the development for that game is now going to have all of its decisions overseen by a studio known for hating obsidian for making a better fallout game than they ever could
I don’t trust Bethesda to not actively sabotage this game to try and prove Fallout should solely be developed by them
Longs they spread the games out from each other will be good

Gravemind to 343 Studios: "I am a monument…. of all your sins. You couldn't even match me."
You use the phrase "talent" as if the dregs of the developer profession who got fired in any way qualify as talent.
There's a reason they were fired. They took too much money to produce buggy games that lacked technical features, were tens or hundreds of millions over budget and years late.
Every single one of those who got fired richly deserves it.
A companies name doesn’t mean the employees that actually do the work are even present day to day 😮
The way I like to keep up with gaming now is actually to follow the games first and treat the console/ecosystem/industry as unimportant. A lot of the quality games are all multiplatform – which is why there's oftentimes multiple platform-direct youtube channels showing the same games. Well Dweller just dropped for example, and the same preview exists for ps5, xbox, Nintendo, and PC (steam). I don't necessarily care where I play it – only that I can play it.
First party and exclusives – there's no guarantee they will be good (or in Xbox's case, finished at launch, and may axe the studio anyways).
Yall are genuinely slow lol. Xbox threw the baby out with the bath water.
I don't feel bad for Ninja Theory & Halo Studios honestly
So you were happy about Kojima and paying 100s of millions for game that won’t be out till 2030 or might get cancelled. Now E day director gone and they shutdown halo studios less than a year after creating it. Explain yourself to the fans Matty
25:45 I'm disappointed Mualington you should have known Kayfabe is pronounced Kay- FAEb not Kay-fab lol
We saved halo
Nah, abundantly talented is insane
When it comes to the western game industry I don’t care what name is behind something anymore. Just release games they better be good. If they aren’t I will easily take my attention elsewhere.
Honestly I think most of these decisions are good overall. Not too sure about Obsidian + Bethesda, but, Halo studios gutted? About freaking time.
Halo: Call of Duty, Combat Warfare
Yea halo was mishandled. But no call of duty game has been as good as halo infinite the past 12 years.. id say H5 multi-player is MUCH better than recent cod multi-player.
So not real excited. Hope I'm off base.

@MrMattyPlays what is your thoughts about if the developers of Doom made a Halo game 👀
They did not go "all in" on UE5. Only the visuals were running on Unreal.
And it hasn't been nothing but misery. Halo 5 gameplay is still the best in the series.
Look as long as it doesn't have microtransactions everywhere in both main line games then I'll be fine with it
Xbox and PS are both shit. Just stick to PC.
