With the recent reveal of Halo Infinite by Microsoft and 343 Industries, there has been a lot of talk concerning Halo returning to its roots. Many are speculating, based on changes to the art style and certain elements of the music, that Halo Infinite will be a Classic Halo game. Today we are going to discuss the possibility that a traditional style Halo game might actually be bad. Even though it is a direction I think many would like the series to go in, there is no guarantee it would actually be good.

In this video and commentary we will discuss the reasons I'm personally concerned about a potential classic Halo game made by 343, and what things they might need to change to improve their chances of success.

Within this discussion we will also talk about the next Halo's burden of innovation, and what that means for a potential classic experience. I'm not bashing 343, saying Halo is dead, or any of that here. I'm just being honest and pointing out some things I think people need to be aware of and consider. Thanks for watching and as always subscribe for more content and leave a comment to join the discussion.
