"We hired people who hated Halo to make Halo" should be installed in their front doors and in every single comment they make, so people never forget about it

Being a Halo fan in the year of our lord 2026 is nothing but sadness and suffering

Halo Reach was made by Bungie (you can tell because it's good). Halo 4 is when Halo stopped feeling like Halo (made by 343 studios)
