I'd probably be pissy too if my very existence was getting hated on for failing to live up to someone. Its like having a girlfriend who constantly talks about how awesome her ex was.
Granted, 343 absolutely deserves it for being both incompetent and pieces of shit themselves.They put themselves in the position to get compared like that and can't live with the fact that they suck and everyone isn't afraid to tell them they suck.
So while it makes sense why they hate like that, they can only blame themselves for it.
*Deserved. 343 got reorganized and renamed Halo Studios after continued failures, but don't expect them to be any better: The head of the studio is former head of DEI at Microsoft Studios.
That's true, but 343 was also hostile towards Bungie's legacy from day 1 before they even started releasing games. They purposely hired people who hated Halo to develop Halo 4.
I don't doubt they knew the reception they'd get even before they started.
They knew exactly what they were doing. They were intentionally trying to make something people were going to hate to instead make a game for themselves, and probably hoped a mythical "silent audience" would appear instead.
As is usually the case with things like Woke takeovers.
