A Drifter must Drift. - Eileen the Kart

This was a game that was fun had a lot of potential to grow into a good hero shooter, It had fun mechanics for all the different MS with the dash system being a neat way to move around the map and they really went to random corners of the franchise for the characters they could pick from which would have meant a nice diverse cast of heroes/MS.

But due to inconsistent marketing, a greedy monetization scheme with locked MS only available by paying or grinding and bad server support, most will remember this game as a bad experiment into the e-sports scene, which is a shame because I think the developers(not Bamco the company) really did care for this game. Or at least that's my copium talking idk. This game really did deserve better.

Game allows you to fight like you have a stand so mechanically the games just fine, but what makes it a great game is the amazing atmosphere that surrounds the world which is mainly powered by the beautiful soundtrack from mili that suits the generally melancholic or dangerous atmosphere in all the different areas, making it a definite play, just to experience the ost applied to the game to make an amazing experience.

Now there's a pretty meme.

Exquisite!

After finishing the fight for all available campaigns on PC for the 1st time in my life (except for Reach, I played that when I was younger), I can confidently say that this game is a masterpiece. Somehow each game just keeps getting better in chronological order of release in terms of gameplay and story. The gameplay is great, no matter the game, as its fun to use all the weapons/equipment/abilities etc.
I was worried that, for me, playing Reach again would only be fun because I enjoyed it when I was younger but playing it again, I can say that I have a good reason to remember Reach. The story for all the games are just great to experience.

I haven't played much of the multiplayer much so I can't comment too much on that as I have only played a few 4v4 matches on Reach. It's fun to play, from what experience I have.

If you haven't played the any of the Halo games, I would highly recommend you to get this collection.
It's just that great to play

I played this game because I was told from the internet that this is one of the best games ever.
They did not lie

The graphics were good for today's standard, levels were well thought out although sometimes it would be hard to find out where to go next due to a lack of clues

The gunplay is mostly okay as there is no inaccuracy when running and some weapons have near randomized spread(After playing CS:GO, this was something I noticed) so it would have encouraged running and gunning but I stayed in cover a lot as it was safer and it made me feel slightly more immersed.

My favourite level has to be ravenholm as you get to use the gravity gun the most here due to the max ammo capacity and the zombie onslaught coming your way. It also is a good example of how HL2 creates the right atmosphere for each chapter.

I only have 3 annoyances with the game( or maybe the engine although these may be fixed in other games)

• the ladders in the game are really buggy as sometimes you don't even get on it
  
• When you get rebel allies to help you they may block your way when they are in a doorway
  
• trying to get on top of an object when you are in water

Other than that, I would reccomend this game to anyone
