Obviously Halo has went downhill since Reach. Less and less people are playing it every coming day. And it seems like Halo is dying. Linky. I'm not asking your opinion on the Halo 4 but the franchise itself. Whether you like it or not Halo 4 is decreasing in population dramatically everyday and that says a lot.. I highly doubt 343i is going to make any BIG gameplay changes in the future or even the next Halos. That's just my opinion of course, but what do you think? Should Halo of stayed in the past? I personally think so. It tears me up to say it, but I think it's the truth. Halo 4 is a good game, don't get me wrong, but it's just not phenomenal like The original Halos were. By that I'm talking about Halo CE, Halo 2, and Halo 3 alone.. As much as I love the story and the game generally, I think 343i are really just milking it. It's a game past its time and I think it's about time to realize that, sadly.. Again, just my opinion. But what do you guys think? I want some honest, somewhat educated opinions on your thoughts of the franchises future and how you think the future halos will turn out. Here's some music to help you think. :D

I do believe Halo should have been done with after Reach.

You jump to conclusions quickly, don't you?

Different Perspective

Could be fixed. There are definitely reasons to like Halo 4. I was just a bit disappointed.

Halo certainly isn't at it's peak anymore, but the argument of population decline being the reason is a stupid one. It's only natural for a new game title to have more people playing it than one from a year ago.

Every single -blam!- game released doesn't have the same amount of players playing it a month after it released. Jesus Christ, it's not signalling the end of Halo. Or any game.

Halo 4 has obvious flaws and I think people should stay vocal about it, but I don't think the game was terrible or marks the slow death of Halo.

Not my own words, but Halo 4 is "a diamond covered in turd". They just need to get the -blam!- up and do something about it. H4 could be the best in the franchise if it was really finished.

I am a pharmaceutical scientist. I received my Masters degree in Pharmaceutics from the University of the Sciences in Philadelphia in 2010, after working as a Pharmacist for 4 years. I currently work in King of Prussia, PA, and focus on the analytical chemistry of small molecule APIs. My clients include some of the most well known big pharma companies in the world.

A more appropriate time to make this argument, supported by gaming populations statistics would be in February through maybe November 2013. Halo 2 and 3's population fell off a relative cliff a month after its release and spiked again during the Christmas holiday. The same will happen with Halo, among many other games that were released within the past 2-3 months.

Some people are just too quick to jump on the hype and want to jump to bold accusations as quick as possible, when it's simply not the appropriate time to do so, so soon.

Population is no way to judge H4's popularity as Halo hasn't generally been popular since MW2 came out.

There's nothing to suggest that there'd be more people playing H4, or that there would have been more people playing Reach, if it were to follow the classic Halo formula we all know and love from CE to H3.
