did you even read th whole article
bungie is helping little indie deelopers like the wereto get on thier feet and mobile games are easy to publish so india developers have access to publishing on them
bungie isnt abandoning thier philosophy thier still working hard on thier game and other projects meanwhile providing what would most likely be things like money to fund indie development and contacts and facilities
this is a very good thing and shows that bungie cares about the gaming community by supporting other developers other than themselves and all those people who are -blam!-ing about it not bing a new game it had only been in development 6 months and aerospace doesnt even sound like a goddam game
and to all the people saying they are greedy and trying to grab quick cash just shut the -blam!- up they are helping indie developers no matter what even if bungie makes money and theyre a buissness they arent a charity they need to eat and sleep under a roof too
What do you hope to achieve with brown-nosing like this? Do you think a Bungie representative is going to come to your door and dub you the one and only official Master Chief and give you 9,000 dollars and the key to the internet?
First off, Lurn too spel.

Well, at least they're helping people in other countries!
2nd, if Bungie cared about the gaming community, they wouldn't have put out the half-baked failure that was Reach. If Bungie cared about the fans that made the Halo franchise a success, they would have had the respect to at least make the last game in the franchise a decent game, and not try to implement a bunch of random changes (ahem ARENA ahem) that approximately 2,000 people enjoyed to play Reach for more than a few months. They should've stuck with the formula that made the Halo franchise a success, not rewrite a whole new game with a Halo nameplate. If they cared about the gaming community, they would've listened to the seemingly endless cries for changes on the forums. If they cared about the gaming community, they wouldn't have scrapped any updates for Reach 7 months after its release. I've had carnival goldfish that have had longer lifespans than Reach.
If Bungie cared about the gaming community they wouldn't put out a rushed, half-baked project, label it a Halo game, and scrap support after less than a year for it. This just sends out the vibe that they could care less about what the fans wanted, and more about getting on to a new project.
And saying the whole "they need to eat and sleep under a roof too" is ridiculous. They aren't exactly designing games in a cardboard-box shantytown, wrapping soiled rags around their hands in an effort to keep their fingers warm while they dream of the first meal in 3 days. I'm not saying it's Trump Tower over there, but it isn't Cabrini Green.
We fans are the ones who made the Halo franchise a success. And then we were essentially collectively given the finger with Reach, so don't expect many of us to be all green grass and high tides when it comes to a new project. Kind of like having someone dump you saying "I just need to be alone" and the next day seeing them with a new person. You don't have to be Sherlock Holmes to figure out why you were dumped.
