We already know Crysis 2 head writer Richard Morgan hated Modern Warfare 2‘s story. Apparently, he feels the same towards Halo’s as well.
While he criticized Modern Warfare 2‘s story as an example of bad storytelling, his main beef with Halo is with the series’ “bullshit archetypal characters”.
“The reason that its fiction doesn’t work has nothing to do with the fact that you don’t get to see Master Chief’s face, it’s because of lines like ‘Okay … I’m gonna get up there and kill those guys’,” he told NowGamer.
“Halo is full of these bullshit archetypal characters,” he continued, adding that the games have “no real emotional effect.”
Morgan is the bestselling author of such sci-fi novels as Altered Carbon and Broken Angels.
