Message: [QUOTE="TamagotchiTamaHero24, post: 355543, member: 215120"] It’s remarkably easy to mess up. To go back to the water, it’s so easy to say “we need water, our engine has easy tools to make water, so all we need to do is match the geometry of the original water. Cool!” It’s easy to think that way when you have an entire rest of the game to make, doubly so when you have Microsoft managing the project (and by managing, I mean screwing around letting their developers have no direction for five years until randomly laying off half their staff). And to the people who are defensive about this remake and think this forum is being too harsh: I agree. But it doesn’t come from nowhere. 343 has messed up simple things time and again, they have an in-house engine that was put together by people they fired and nobody knew how to work (that they spent half a decade working on, by the way), and they’ve had huge staff cuts in recent years because they’re under Microsoft (a giant conglomerate who can’t manage any studio they have for the life of them). I agree that many are being super harsh super fast, but it’s not for no reason. The EXPECTATION is to be critical of 343 at this point because they’ve done nothing to gain anybody’s trust in AT LEAST the last five years, let alone decade and a half. And this isn’t to put down Wars 2 or some of the other cool things they’ve done, but it’s a reflection of what they’ve created. They forged this fandom of doomers, now they have to live with it.
