I just saw a thread saying that Bungie will be making some sort of MMO.
Obviously as everyone knows the Halo franchise is no longer controlled by Bungie, but it seems some misinterpereted that it would be an MMO set in the Halo universe.
This definately wouldn't make much sense, but it did for me raise an interesting question.
Where would the Halo series go if it was continued?
Would you like to see an MMO, a game from the Covenant point of view, the early days of the Human-Covenant War, games based on the books, a proper ending to the trilogy, the
Forerunner-Flood War or something else entirely?
I think a game, or a new series should be made around the Forerunner-Flood War.
Seeing as it was the reason for the rings in the games name and there is practically nothing known about the Forerunners and so far the Flood have for the most part been done very, very badly, that a game or games in this part of the Halo universe would be interesting, and if done properly would give the games a real backstory other than what has been done in the books.
Thats the thing about Halo, the only things that even make it seem like an entire world are the books while the games themselves generally have poor storytelling and show little outside of the corridors you fight in.
A game like this could correct that.
Anyways, discuss stuff below.
EDIT: It seems people are missing the point, this new Halo game, whatever you want it to be can be entirely new, not just a retread of everything that has already been done.
There is plenty of room for a fun new Halo game in its uncharted universe, I wish people would stop seeming to assume that nothing can come out of it other than regenerating health and power armoured soldiers killing aliens, just because its what we've gotten before.
I wish even more that people everywhere would stop saying "let it die with dignity" all the time. If Halo dies thats a lot of potential for expansion and creation down the drain.
