Halo Co-Creator Calls Out Remake For Pandering To “New Era Of Players With 0% Attention Span,” But He Really Loves The Upgrades Overall

The co-creator of Halo and designer of Master Chief, Marcus Lehto, has weighed in with his thoughts about the latest Halo remake, Halo: Campaign Evolved. Posting on social media , Lehto said he has been slowly playing through the game on the Heroic difficulty and he has some issues but mostly he's having a great time and is happy with the game. "Overall, I really love the upgrades: movement, cinematics, visuals. In terms of Campaign Evolved's new system that gives players hints about what to do and where to go next, Lehto said , "I think the hints are too heavy-handed--pandering to a new era of players with 0% attention span." Also on social media, Lehto addressed the online negativity surrounding Campaign Evolved, saying a platform like X/Twitter "fosters that hate." He said if people got together in the same room to discuss Campaign Evolved and play it, "I bet we would all eventually have a pretty damn good time playing the game together." Campaign Evolved is notable for being the first Halo game on PlayStation.
