Translated, the streamer said the following:

The gaming community as a whole was ready for a new bloody awesome game and Halo dropped the bloody ball. Everyone in this damn company should be ashamed, man. [Das Studio] 343 is a joke. They’re bloody awful. They don’t give a damn about anyone who plays their games, old or new. Her fucking pride and ego got in the way of what could have been incredible timing. God, it could have literally taken over anything. But instead they now have 800 people in the damn game.

What does the community say about this? On Twitter the same day, user @hiBeekle shared the video snippet of Nichmercs ranting about Halo Infinite (via Twitter). Many users agreed with the streamer in the comments:

  • @CodyReese: “100%”
  • @vs Douggie: “We should all be watching Halo BR [Battle Royale] play – that’s completely different. Very sad.”
  • @ZaayWoop: “If they had come out with more maps and a well thought out BR from the start, it would have changed the game. Ever since BRs came around I’ve always wanted a Halo BR because it could have been better than anything that’s out now and I’ve been a Halo player since Halo Ce.”

Halo Battle Royale, the salvation of the Halo franchise?

How about a Halo Battle Royale? Rumors are circulating that game studio Certain Affinity is working on a Halo Battle Royale mode.

Here you can read what information there is about the possible Halo Battle Royale.

The developers have already been asked about a possible Battle Royale mode in the past. At that time, however, the answers were rather sobering and a Battle Royale mode did not seem to be an option at all.

Maybe that will change after the many negative comments from fans and Twitch streamers like Nickmercs.

What do you think of a Halo Battle Royale and Nickmerc’s criticism of Halo Infinite? Write it to us in the comments.

It’s not the first time Nickmercs has commented negatively on Halo Infinite: back in March, the Twitch streamer called the game a flop.
