Ok so, I know most people think that 343 industries ruined halo. I think I figured out their "motive" per say. If I'm a bit late at realizing this, oh well. Here it is. 343 industries is the current company naming the halo series. However, they either (intentionally or accidentally ) named their company after the monster system from halo 2 and 3, named 343 guilty spark. This AI monitor (looks like the edit mode of forge) was tasked with controlling instillation 04 (also known as Alpha Halo). However, in halo 2, he tried very very hard to stop master chief from destroying the halo ring. In the end, guilty spark failed. Then, in halo 3, guilty spark returned, set on helping master chief (kind of like 343 wanting to help Microsoft make halo). Later in halo 3, master chief and guilty spark, along with the Arbiter, and Sargent Johnson are in the control room of the ark (a ship type thing that not only builds new halo rings but also activated them. This is located outside the Milky Way galaxy) Just as Johnson is about to activate the partially finished halo ring(built to replace the one destroyed in halo 2) to stop the flood infestation, 343 Guilty Spark goes nuts and kills Johnson saying "this is UNACCEPTABLE". He claims that this ring is his and he will not let it be destroyed again (like telling Microsoft "well give you a game, but we are pissed of so we won't make it good." There you have it. 343 is made a bad game because it's their nature. It's the evil robot in them that wants to get back at the person who ruined their ancestors life. That, is the justification of why halo 4 was so bad. [spoiler]This is NOT a troll. Halo 4 seriously sucked[/spoiler]
