Talk:N.O.V.A. 3 -Near Orbit Vanguard Alliance-/@comment-178.150.126.96-20130309203642/@comment-3998509-20130309220218

Clearly you haven't played much Halo. And if you did, you did it wrong. First of all, N.O.V.A. started off as a Halo clone. The main protagonist isn't "much weaker", the health systems are practically identical. The plot of each game isn't that complicated, but the overall expanded story is. Halo's gameplay is very balanced, though I must say I didn't like #4 much. And how is it pessimistic? The entire thing has marines making humorous remarks and the Master Chief and Arbiter building a hopeful alliance. The guns look like water pistols? K. I want your water pistols. The Master Chief isn't Han Solo you know. It has plenty of humour, just not explicit. He's a soldier, not some rogue.
