Please tell me I'm not the only one who thinks the cat ears are really stupid

[xXx_Trollmaster_Pro_xXx]

It's such a minor thing to complain about, but yeah the cat ears were just a really stupid and dorky cosmetic item to add to the game. Kind of ruins the immersion in a sense. Maybe part of my frustration comes from the fact cat ear players are usually annoyingly good, lol

Edit: Was not expecting to start a whole ass war in the comments. I also didn't even realize furries were still a thing until after I made this post

Edit 2: Just let this post die already. What I said wasn't profound in any way and isn't worth wasting your time getting angry over.

Cat ears is such a joke. Breaks immersion and this Halo game doesn't feel like the Halo I used to play... ♥♥♥♥ cat ears and other ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ for kids.

You're not the only one, as suggested by the small mountain of other "muh immersion" threads we've had on this very subject over the last few weeks, many of which are still easily findable through the forum's search function.

But you knew that, and feeling alone in your crusade against cat ears was never the point.

Silly me.

Crossover armor with Ryu Hayabusa of Ninja Gaiden in H3, which has absolutely zero practical relationship to any other Mjolnir variant to that point = muh immersion maintained.

Two triangles perched on a helmet you're going to see for two or three seconds at a time while killing or being killed by the bearer of said triangles = muh immersion destroyed.

Given your ability to hyper-focus on minutiae to the exclusion of everything else around you, perhaps games aren't for you, but an exciting career in corporate cost accountancy might be.

Just sell Stupid ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ cosmetics to dumb gamers with no impulse control.

Buying cosmetics you've got for free in previous games sounds even more stupid. That should mean that more than 75% of Halo Infinite gamers have no impulse control. But I wouldn't call them dumb for this reason or any others as trivial as yours.

Honestly, I think most of the cat ear hate is related to the "lol furry" crusading of the slope-browed goofballs who know they can't get away with racist or homophobic invective in public, so they punch down on one of the few groups it's still socially acceptable to make fun of.

It's low-rent in its thought process, and revelatory of deep-seated personal insecurity.

The kicker is that most of these socially maladroit bellends would absolutely jump at the chance to date a fur girl or "weeb" girl, but none will have them, and so the salt flows.

Finally! I'm actually surprised it took you guys this long to call people who hate furries, r‌a‌cist, hom‌ophobic n‌a‌z‌i white men.

Cat ears is such a joke. Breaks immersion and this Halo game doesn't feel like the Halo I used to play... ♥♥♥♥ cat ears and other ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ for kids.

Again no one cares, halo is not some gritty game you think

I mean... I care.
Halo was a massive part of Gamer Nerd culture before being a "gamer" suddenly became mainstream. And we stopped being ostracized.

Everyone plays games now, and alot of the traditions of the games that I played Growing up have been either abandoned, or been so warped by companies trying to be hyper inclusive that the games they produce entirely lose their creative merits.

Halo, the first 5 games.
Were very Gritty, that was the appeal.
The Humans struggling in the mud against literal extinction, fighting a war that was only won by Luck and Losses. Lot of characters died along the way.

Most people would feel pretty ♥♥♥♥ when their Marines would die along the way, because they always had colorful personalities as soldiers, and you want to protect them.

And Multiplayer?
It was the ♥♥♥♥ back then.
We didn't have alot of cosmetics, we didn't really need them.
The games were fun, even bad games had great moments.

We could talk to other players, and have meaningful human moments.
Abandoning fighting when the other team only has 1 player left, so you can spend the last 4-5 minutes of a match just talking. Or having a healthy Rivalry with someone on the enemy team, trading kills.

343i won't even let us talk to eachother now.
And they sell us crap like cat ears. And its frustrating.

There are so many other sources they could create things from,
We're still missing a ton of the classic helmets.
We're missing a Ton of the Modern helmets.
♥♥♥♥ were missing all the Meme helmets/cosmetics that WE'RE more immersive.

343i lacks any respect for the creative identity of the original series.
Their litearlly just adding this stupid ♥♥♥♥ into the game because people have "quirky" as defining personality trait and they know that Quirkos don't have any self control.

Is it really tho?
Half the ♥♥♥♥ they sell in the store comes bundles with cosmetics that literally NO ONE WILL EVER SEE.
Dongles, Weapon Skins, Vehicle skins.

♥♥♥♥, BtB doesn't even ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ work right now.
And there are only 2 maps for 4v4's that even spawn Vehicles.
AND, Half the vehicles that DO SPAWN, do not have SKINS.

So, people go to the store,
See a skin that they think is cool,
Buy it,
And then will literally never see it in play.
Yes, ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ god yes.

Halo Infinite players,
The ones that 343i want buying from their store.
Have literally no impusle control.
Since no one seems to ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ consider that they will never See, or even notice, any of the cosmetics they buy. It looks cool in the shop. And apparently thats enough for them to spend $10 per transaction on something that.
AGAIN.
They are likely NEVER going to see.
