 		[OFF-TOPIC] Disappointed in this ARG

Frankly, I'm very disappointed by the quality of this ARG - they're not even trying to help us suspend disbelief, and wow was that audio file BADLY written and BADLY acted.


You're not the only one.

Sorry, but I have a hard time being sucked into the arg universe when the bottom of the server page is lined with corporate logos, and I have to go through an age check just to get there in the first place.

*sigh*

Two years I waited for the continuation/conclusion of the world created by the ILB ARG, and *this* is what we get instead? I checked 42's info page... they didn't look too busy at the moment, so who's f'ing idea was it to go solo this time, and how can I flame him/her? At this point I feel like sitting on the curb next to a phone booth hoping the nostalgia scares off the disappointment.

 		ILB was so popular because you didn't have to like Halo to enjoy the story. All you needed to know was that an AI from the future hacked a lady's computer and did a bunch of weird stuff. The sound clips had no impact on the overall story (thus far.)

This new game delves deep in to the Forerunners, which are pretty much the entire point of the Halo franchise story-wise. Not saying they shouldn't cover their tracks better though. Who knows where this will go though, I hope they do more with the Society of the Ancients, as that website seems to be the only immersion thus far.
