I respect both Bungie and it's community.
It took a lot of guts to make so many of the decisions those guys have had to make. I think it was a huge revelation when Bungie realized that the games they wanted to play were the games millions of others wanted to play. And ever since the first Halo, these are the guys that have been trying to live up to that marvel. Succeeding multiple times in reproducing that game's success.
In the end, I think it took a lot of courage to give up the safety of the Halo brand, to move on to something new, not knowing what it could hold, not knowing if they were going to fail or succeed; it's one thing to live up to the success of a game, but these guys are competing with themselves, they're trying to match the success of the Halo series. Now that is bravery at it's finest.
To look into the future and not be able to see past the darkness is scary, but they do it. There might be a flower-filled meadow or a huge ravine ahead, but these guys are driving full speed into that darkness... And they love it.
