>You taught me that Justice is a contract. Once broken, it can never be mended. You sacrificed so much to preserve the innocent, but to the guilty, you offered no mercy. I loved my mother, and I never wanted to hurt her. But with what she did to us, she gave up the right to exist. My hands were shaking when I did it, but you were there to steady them.
Best daughter.

I only wish there was more stuff like this throughout the game.
So many from DMC3:SE.
Do I even have to post links?

Fucking dumb. There's always a minute possibility that anything you do will contribute to a coming apocalypse. Being a massive pussy and giving up on everything for fear of unforeseeable consequences is no way to live.

Shame the combat is pretty shit, but damn I love the setting and story.Here's hoping Legends isn't a total shit show.

Watching Tassadar go super archon and kill the Overmind always gets me especially the music. Shame all future renditions of his head were changed, I always loved that tiger striped skull appearance that he had goin on.
And watching the UED get introduced was a great. Especially Stukov.

Activision and Bungie's former president, thank christ he stepped down, put very strict shit on him, and were accelerating the timeline so much that he said Destiny would suffer for it. He protested the shifting requirements and refused to work and was fired by Ryan.
I feel awful because knowing if Marty was respected like he was during the development of Halo, then Destiny would have turned out absolutely fantastically. That, and if Activision and Ryan hadn't shifted the timeline so much, and caused so much strife.
>>381173939
>Implying 343 will ever meet ODST or Reach's level.
Reach had a god tier style for the armor, vehicles, and the Covenant. ODST had a great ambiance to it, and a pretty damn good soundtrack. 343 has managed to butcher every single aspect that has made Halo Halo. The soundtrack for 5 is unironically pretty god damn awful.
With that said, I enjoyed what they tried to do with Halo 4.
>>381174345
>>381174762
Both are the worst selling FPS Halo games and most of the guys that made Halo 1-3 either left the company or was working Destiny. Both ODST and Reach had a massive drop in quality after Halo 1-3. You can shout all you want about 343 killing Halo but you guys need to stop revision history, Wars, ODST, and Reach almost literally killed the series. While Halo 4 lost all of it's playerbase it brought the series sales back up, Halo 5 even sold better than ODST and Reach in it's first three months. Halo is less dead then it was in late 2009-2010.

correction
>>381175517
Just because they were financial flops doesn't mean that they were objectively bad. I'm not revising history, and it's silly to view Halo as not being killed by 343 because it's financially successful. EA is financially successful but that doesn't mean their awful business practices should be encouraged. 343 is killing Halo, from raping the visual style, the story, fucking Chief over so quickly in place of a random new protagonist that we're forced to warm up to when he's going against best boy in a single game. Their advertisement campaign was pretty much on paper, Cortana being brought back as an ugly villain who controls the strongest shit in hundreds of galaxies is bullshit, and the soundtrack is god awful.

You missed the part where it was.
>>381175985
True, but at least Chief, split screen, and lan are coming back and staying this time. Halo 6 also needs to have everything AT LAUNCH.

You must've not played the wii version. To me this cutscene only invokes pure agony and frustration.

All of Halo 2 Anniversary's cutscenes.
Something about being able to flip back and forth from old to new whilst the new cutscenes are absolutely amazing is an entirely new experience.
>>381175517
Halo 4 sold well because of the massive amount fans wanting to finally see chief again.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y9iQiHNXgMU
Halo 5 sold like hot cakes because of the youtube tier clickbait that 343 advertised.

>"Yea whats up jim?"

>"But in reality halo 5 will basically be a massive waste of all their time"
>"and as we do it we'll slowly integrate our new protagonist Oh Yea! make him black aswell, his armor should look even more complex so add more dents and curves..
>"Are you sure this is a good idea?'
>'Of course, we got to continue making our big bucks"
>"Especially on the new microtransactions we're implementing"
>>381179816
Halo 6 will sell well because Master Chief is the main character again and staying, split screen is back, and lan is back. The game just needs to have everything at launch like Bungie's Halo then they could have player staying power.

>>381179816
Also continuing from this>>381180185, Halo 5 did sell worse than Halo 2, 3, and 4 because it sidelined Chief and people found out about it before the release, axing split screen didn't help.

Ending of mgs 4. Just felt so peaceful and after realizing how much big boss went through it made it seem like death's not that bad and that endings don't have to always be sad. I hope they never continue the series.

Shipmaster is a bantlord. I honestly thought of posting this for that one line.

The lead writer for Halo 5 and those garbage ass Escalation comics, Chris Schlerf, isn't writing Halo 6's story at least.
>>381181134
Halo 3 sold over 14 million
Reach sold over 4 million
Halo 4 sold in the Halo 2 numbers 8 million
>>381181521
>Chris Schlerf
He wrote Halo 4, the writer you're looking for is Brian Reed who got fired after his shit writing killed Halo 5.
>>381181425
Wasn't Ripa's armor custom because of how huge he was?
>>381181657
Ah, shit. You're right. Either way, the asshole that gave us Halo 5 got kicked to the curb and that's all that matters.
>>381182231
That's why I have faith that Halo 6 will be better.
>>381181657
>>381182231
Imagine, theres an alternate universe where halo 5 wasn't shit.
>>381182498
I still imagine in another universe on a world just lie ours, Halo 5 had the original storyline, where Chief wears a poncho.

I wish for an alternative universe where Bungie stayed shackled to Microsoft instead of slaving for 10 years with Activision.
Halo 4 and 5 would've turned out less... crazy.
>>381182992
S...Shockwaves?!
>>381182853
Have you seen Bungie's Halo Chronicles concept? That shit was more crazy than anything 343 ever came up with. Plus it wouldn't have been the same, a lot of the guys that made Halo 1-3 special were gone after Halo 3.
All the hallucination scenes in Dead Space 2 were pretty great. My favorite is probably at 7:43
