1/ Dear @MarathonTheGame graphic design lovers. It is time for me to burn some bridges. Because thanks to @4nt1r34l daily posters stolen and put as textures in the game and many other assets utilized, you have created AntirealTheGame. @Bungie @josephacross
Bungie has issued an official statement, they are throwing an artist under the bus and pledging to make it right with the original artist.
This is a developing story.

Man, as somebody who grew up with Halo, it's really depressing to see how they seem to just be utterly incapable of an original thought anymore.
I mean is there even a simgle person still working on bungie that was somehow related to the good halos?
I don't think that matters. This is likely a decision handed down by upper management. And that's what makes it depressing; what could've continued to be some of the greatest creators of Sci-Fi video games instead have mismanaged their talent and shot both their feet off.
The blind leading the eagle-eyed.
