@BigBossBalrog Unsubscribed to that mod before finishing the first mission
I hate that visor ui, and my god the bloat.
Gonna try out Halo 3 Combat Evolved next.
Like so many amazing Halo mods, this has a bunch of great ideas. But goes overboard and starts making a mess of balance.
The book only and CE weapons were my favorite additions
Had to pause the video and do some errands, but I'm pretty impressed.
I love the look of the Flood, wearing the outfits and armors of those they infected. Makes me wonder why that aesthetic wasn't used in CE. Maybe due to time constraints, maybe it was never considered in the first place.
However, the nerd in me points out that the combat forms doing more cognitive movements and dodges is teeeechnically not lore friendly due to there being no gravemind. Unless there already is a protogravemind in this alternate mod universe.
My (second) biggest complaint with Halo 4 was the weird ass art styles 343 used for everything's armor. It just looked so... off brand, like a Playstation ripoff of Halo more than Halo.
Don't even get me started on how they turned the lean and lightning fast elites into bulky lumbering brutes, who are even more clumsy than actual Brutes.
Halo: MCC, Metro Last Light, Total War (Rome 1, Rome 2, Attila, and Empire), Elden Ring, Baldurs Gate 3, Dark Souls 2: Scholar, Elder Scrolls (Arena, Daggerfall, Morrowind, Oblivion), New Vegas, Outward, Pillars of Eternity, Project Zomboid, Civ 5.
Imagine if they made it as enemies
Turns out, beyond Demon Soul's swamp woman, who is unintentionally thematically related to the later ones. Just a playtester who invaded a dev in the swamp with the butcher knife and a bag on her head.
One of the best known invader themes, the naked cannibal lady, started off as a goddamn playtester
