Bungie is doing a great job of convincing me that Halo was what it was because of the oversight and structure that Microsoft/XB provided. They weren't restricted by it, as they would like it to remembered, they were repulsed by the demand for quality work. I don't understand the nitpicking nerfs being on the forefront of the agenda, when most players would reap more benefits from a game that operates as intended. Well over a year after release and we have seen very little progress in improving connectivity, with it being a constant theme in every Destiny related forum and every Twitter response.
