I had another rewatch of Crowbcat's "Remember Halo" video yesterday...
I don't think it's possible to have that experience again. Not just because of youth and nostalgia; but online systems, mobile phones and spoilers, streamers, terrible management and messaging and the fall of the industry. It'll never bee the same again. But those days were marvellous...

I grew up with Halo.
When I was young, my dad used what little money we had as a family at the time to get me and my siblings an Xbox. With that Xbox, he got us a couple of games, one of them being Halo: Combat Evolved. Every day when I got back from school, I would hop on to play Halo with my brother, and we would have so much dumb fun. Halo 2 came out eventually and that was all we could think of for a long time. Late nights playing Halo 2 on Xbox Live, trashing others online and then proceeding to get no kills for the entire game... This is what dominated my life, along with my brother and many others. When the "Believe" ad campaign had rolled out for Halo 3, the excitement was at an all-time high. My brother and I would spend hours every day talking about how excited we were for Halo 3, while playing Halo 2 to prepare ourselves. Despite our attempts, nothing could've prepared us for what Halo 3 would mean for us both. We got our copy of Halo 3 and spent an entire day going through that campaign split-screen. When we got to the end of the warthog run, we both couldn't stop from sobbing. We moved a ton throughout our childhood, and could never carry many true friendships because of that. When everything would change around us, the Master Chief and Cortana were there for us. The Arbiter was there for us. Sgt Johnson was there for us. The countless nameless marines and ODSTs were there for us. Halo and its community was always still there for us. My brother and I spent so many hours online playing Halo 3, goofing off, having fun, and waiting for the news on where Halo was going to go. Halo 3: ODST and Halo: Reach were just as incredible to us when they came out. They only served to deepen our love for the franchise. These memories that my brother and I have made with this series will never disappear. They are part of our identities now. That being said, it does sadden me to see the state in which Halo has found itself in, these days. I truly do hope that things can get better and more people can experience Halo like my brother and I did. I think I'm done with the series. I will cherish every moment I spent with Halo and I will remember it all, but I think that's what it needs to stay as for me; a distant and bittersweet, yet core memory.
P.S.
Sorry for the wall of text.

With the recent layoffs at Microsoft and 343 Industries, many have started to question the future of Halo Infinite and the franchise itself. Is there any hope for Halo? After so much has gone wrong? Only one way to find out...
