You're very fixated on straws? - projection?I'm not even understanding what you are trying to say here.
Because realm reborn is on 3 different platforms, then it makes sense that there's 22k viewers in a game with 3.5 million daily players?
Then again, halo infinite is on xbox, steam, and Windows store.
But here it makes sense the viewers are this low because steam is trustworthy here compared to steam.
343 had the option of expanding the lore, and focus on other characters. Just keep Master chief mysterious man, who is fighting heroic fights.
Halo entire essence is, humans need to survive these alien invasion. It has great materials to work on a good game.
Remove weapon looting crap and it would work.Also, battle royals doesn't work in Halo's framework

What does that even mean? A battle royale would (and will be) an amazing sandbox for BR.

‘Halo Infinite’ Has Fallen Outside Xbox’s Top 5, Outside Steam’s Top 100
While Halo Infinite debuted with great reviews and a lot of talk about it being a “return to form” for the series, the game has struggled to retain players past its initial launch period.www.forbes.com

He is ignorant to the fact that the game is top 6 on xbox. How is that struggling? I dont get it.I live rent free in most your heads and don't even know most of you lol. But carry-on with the lame bait

You actually hit the nail on the head here in respect of many old games people have very fond memories of. The options back then were rather limited compared to today. People were way more attached to their purchases and getting every last drop of fun out of them. Nowadays, you are bored of Halo? Just go and boot up 1 of the 100 other shooters. Halo back then really was the only option on Xbox.I don't want to step on anyone's favourite game series but I feel like since Halo 3 all the hype around the franchise became artificial and its relevance in the FPS field diminished heavily with time.
Now thinking about it, reason why I have fond memories of Halo and Halo 2 is just coping having chosen Xbox (the wrong system) above the PS2 and so, having to deal with a much smaller library of games.
Because Halo is overrated. Today it's basically just a name with a lot of nostalgia attached to it for old timers. Halo provides nothing of interest for new players. Same with names like Quake, Unreal Tournament.
The farther in the rear mirror my experience with this game goes the more I agree.I'm glad this game is struggling. Everyone I know has went back to MCC already. They had one final shot, and not even a blank cheque combined with 5 years of development time could prevent them from making a bland game with little to no content.
I'll be celebrating the day that MCC player pop catches up on ininite. 343i do not deserve a single ounce of praise.
You know what is absolutely mind boggling to me about all of this? The amount of people that are trying to defend the lack of content, the lack of communication, and the lack of well .. BASIC FEATURES THAT HAVE BEEN A STAPLE IN THIS FRANCHISE SINCE FUCKING 2007 (!!!). I just saw a dude on twitter trying to argue about the fact that Infinite has more than enough maps, and that ''Even one map could be enough for this game. I mean look at League of Legends, it's only got 1 map in ranked and people still love it!''Let's be honest, the game is very barebones, just 5 maps when you're not interested in BTB, just a few game modes, which it took half of the community's complaints to 343 FINALLY give us a Slayer-only playlist, and cosmetics are locked behind those dumb Battle Passes and bundles instead of ordinary MTX where you just pick and buy the exact thing you really like. I honestly cannot see this game not being slowly but surely forgotten, because even if 343 will add any content to it, it's still gonna be put behind Battle Pass, so many people will still be running with the exact same default armor. And if we put the cosmetics on the side to begin with, you always play with the exact same two default guns (again, with no customizations), I mean, it's an arena shooter after all, so while yeah it's a nice fresh air into all this Battle Royale craze that's going on nowadays, I feel that this freshness will fade away very quick, as each match feels virtually the same except those few maps in rotation, there's no room for any customization whether the looks or the gameplay, no nothing.
Which is sad because the game has easily one of the best gunplays ever, and with going F2P it could've been the next big thing next to Fortnite, CoD, Apex, PUBG etc., if only 343 got out of their comfort zone and modernize the game to today's trends/standards, instead of being mentally stuck 20 years ago when the game was launching. People often say how different/better Infinite is compared to Guardians, but to me it's the exact same deal, the exact same issues, the exact same archaic solutions, and there's a big chance Infinite will share Guardians' fate, a.k.a. nobody will remember it year after launch.
Everyone here agrees that the game needs more content. Its fucked up that they can get away with shit like this, after the 1 year delay.You know what is absolutely mind boggling to me about all of this?

343i fanboys are literally getting cucked. Bunch of stockholm syndrom kids that are probably only clenching on to this game because it's one of the few big guns they have in this plastic box war. That is my theory at least.
I do not think it is f’ed up because of the delay, I think that the game may have been in a state so bad before Staten was brought back (re-reading the behind the scenes of ODST, mad respect to the guy, I am having so much fun with both Halo 3 and ODST) where MS may have been very much aware of the graphical issues in the trailer and real-time gameplay demo and kind of took advantage of the expected reception to announce a one year delay.Everyone here agrees that the game needs more content.

Well, the events are not locked to the Battle Pass, and with new weekly events you can still get quite a lot of new content. Yes, the current modes are very barebones, but a new Warzone style mode with capturing FoBs could easily bring new players back, which is what Certain Affinity is rumoured to be working on. With such a mode 343 could introduce custom loadouts and the ability to call in items. I feel like if MCC can survive its launch, we shouldn't write Halo Infinite off.Let's be honest, the game is very barebones, just 5 maps when you're not interested in BTB, just a few game modes, which it took half of the community's complaints to 343 FINALLY give us a Slayer-only playlist, and cosmetics are locked behind those dumb Battle Passes and bundles instead of ordinary MTX where you just pick and buy the exact thing you really like.

The top games are:
As long as its top 10 on xbox, its doing well. nothing to worry about.
- Fortnite
- Call of Duty Warzone
- GTA 5
- Apex Legends
- Roblox
- Halo Infinite
Meh, perhaps it's more due to a personal dislike regarding BR's that taints my opinion I guess..
I just don't see it but I'm open for it tho
It's sandbox is pretty small and tier heavy.
Get the goods get the win.
No armor health pickups.
I dont know man
Is there any indication that they switched to windows store? If it is based purely on relative position on Windows Store most played charts then I don't think that is any indication of a switch. It's more that people must use windows store for GP games and almost nobody uses it for actual games they can get elsewhere.OK let's say 10 million players were playing it on Steam, and then the day campaign came out half of them switched to windows.
Is that 15 million players or 5 million?
It's still 10 million. It's the same 10 million, but split. 5 on Steam and 5 on Windows.
A player that played on Steam at first and switched to Windows is still one player, but it looks bad on the Steam numbers as they switch.
It doesnt mean less overall players, it literalky just means less steam players.
You seem to not be able to grasp this concept.

Gameplay is top notch. Overall content is not. And 343 is not moving quick enough to stop the bleeding player base. They keep saying they’re going to provide info soon, but even that keeps getting delayed. Also, they’re saying the MP is still in beta? I just feel like 343 is in over their head with the F2P model for the game.
Its the dumb 10 year project. That shouldnt have happened at all. Yet, they did it.I think looking at their issues over multiple projects that it’s just not a studio issue.
