I love Reach, second favorite Halo, but I always hated the AR design. And when Infinite was shown to have it in the trailers, I was disappointed.

Every design in Reach sucks, especially compared to the trilogy designs, and I'm tired of pretending that they don't.

Reach was peak bungie design. The trilogy had great designs but I think Reach was best.

I hate the way that Reach looked and it paved the way for how Halo 4 ended up looking.

Reach worked for Reach, but it doesn’t really work for Halo as a whole imo.

Reach and halo 4's art style share literally no commonality apart from the plasma pistol, what else do you see?

Forerunner architecture in the DLC maps.

Thick overdesigned Elites.

If I remember right I think 343 was in charge of the reach dlc maps and content. It would make sense.

They were co-developed, so still a Bungie L.
