Today’s game is Halo Infinite. Me and my friend continued our Legendary playthrough and did another mission with it (and also cleared a few more FOB). The screenshot above was taken at the top of a mountain where we got an achievement. The games views are gorgeous and give me big BoTW vibes.
During the mission we had this boss fight with a Brute with a hammer, and it was unusually difficult. This game has a lot of good things going for it, but one complaint i have is that the boss fights feel off. Like with Halo 2 the boss fights felt rewarding to do, but in this one it just feels like every other shooter where you break the enemies shield, and then shoot them some more. I don’t really know how to explain it but it feels more tedious than fun.
The last complaint i have is that the Legendary mode feels weirdly unbalanced. Like with older games Legendary is a constant challenge, but this one the common enemies are easy but then the game will rarely through a boss that is ungodly hard or even a pair of enemies that take forever or really precise strategies. I guess my complaint is i would rather for a constant challenge than it randomly spiking.
An example is the fight in the picture above (it was so difficult i took a victory photo). From what i’ve heard from my friend this fight is hard on normal too, but i can’t confirm that. The entire fight took us like an hour because whenever we even peaked out to look for him they’d demolish us with their guns that explode. Imagine like a rocket launcher that fired really fucking fast would arc too find you. So there’s like no hiding from it. We eventually persisted though after i trapped one of the two brutes in a crack and killed him and then i slowly whittled away at the other one with a sentinel beam and AR.
It’s not about the screenshots, I’m just amazed with how you’re playing a different game every day. I can’t put down a game until I 100% it.
Oh, I get what you’re saying. I try to 100% things, or at the very least beat the story. But some times I’ll get burnt out easily or just won’t have the time for that specific game. Usually I try to balance a single player game and then multiplayer game with friends I’ll shuffle through whenever.
Right now my single player is Far Cry 3, and then my multiplayer rn is mostly Halo Infinite with my friend, though occasionally I’ll drag my PS3 over to my friend’s house for Splitscreen Minecraft (like today), so that could be included under multiplayer too.
