Activision taking over Halo (Destiny)

At the end of the day, though, they're all just kinda boring. And that's honestly the worst thing a video game can be.

It's boring because the studio was set up to create more Halo, rather than more meaningful experiences. I'm convinced they had a studio run by people more enamored by the surface level details of Halo than the actual emotional hooks. I say this because there were no such hooks, beyond perhaps the call to nostalgia which is itself a black hole that sucks up creativity and removes it from the universe.
