I prefer not to celebrate/ have a party on my birthday.

Aha! But, a birthday is something special. A reminder of your origins. And a reminder that you're still here. Most of all, it's a bit like a reset button. You look back on all that you've accomplished in the last year, and look ahead to see what you think you can do this year!

I was never one for parties either, but it is a day of celebration, because looking back on the year, I accomplished much. And now it's a new year ahead of me. New roads, new paths. Which road shall I take this year?

Eh. I don't like the attention. Means I have to be around family who see me twice a year for twenty minutes total and shit, I prefer to just have the money that would be spent on it to go and buy something cool instead.

Lucky me then. Most of my family are ded surprise big not. I've got my mother, her brother, my sister and her husband, and my little niece. They all know I'm a quiet person. They'll say howdy and give me something, but generally leave me to my peace.

These are folks worth paying attention to, and people that believe the same of me. Who am I to argue?

Huh. Mine just incessantly talk at me about shit I don't care about when I just want to go and play my new game or something.

Haha. I'm a real simple person to shop for. Which means I'm in no real hurry to leave when they show up to say howdy, since I can't exactly spend an entire day marvelling at socks or clothing. Funny enough, clothes have become valuable to me over the years as presents since I fucking hate clothes shopping.

I must be the only person alive who genuinely smiles when they get socks for a present. And, plus, good for inside family jokes too.

Something being able to kill quicker than something else doesn't objectively make the thing that kills slower the worse thing to put in the game.

It depends on what it is. If it has a role like the focus rifle sure it doesn't need to have decent kill times. But if it's a normal weapon then it's down right shit. The assault rifle is nearly useless due to the shit range and damage. The plasma repeater is just pointless since the damge output is shit. For Halo 2 and 3 unless you're doing weapon combos duel wielding the same type of weapons is pointless since the damge output for them is low. Halo does have a lot of weapons that are shit. The only decent ones are the power weapons or the precision ones.

Thinking that everything needs to be designed to kill is what made retards hate the Focus Rifle so much; despite its nerf from the Beta the thing still worked great as a counter-sniper, when a target was out in the open at range(as they couldn't scope in to shoot at you), and when assisting a teammate.

The thing though about it is that it's the only counter to the sniper rifle. Since the thing has the range of one you're going to have people using it for that role. Normally if a rifle like weapon has the rage and scope power of a sniper rifle it's generally a sniper rifle. Which resulted in people using it for one. Bungie shouldn't have replaced the beam rifle with this thing. They should have included both weapons in the game.

Space Combat in BF2 was the main addition to the series, ofc it's going to have more content than Reach, where it was only designed to be in 1/2 of a Campaign mission.

It still shouldn't be an excuses for how shitty it is. The only reason why it's that bad is because Bungie didn't put focus into the campaign as much as they did with Halo CE and 2. It's just laziness. CoD 2 has only two tank missions out of all the levels where you're on foot. Even with them being the minority they are well developed.

Halo Reach armor was perfection. So was the User Interface. 343 could learn a lot from the game Bungie did perfectly but then stupid people shat all over.

Reach is shit. The only good thing about it is the armour and UI.

And forge/ customs

And modeling of environments/weapons/vehicles/NPCs. And creating unique weapons for the sandbox. And adding in Invasion so people could play Spartan vs Elite gametypes like many wanted. And making the Rocket Hog, Falcon, and Revenant. And File Browser. And Campaign matchmaking. And FF matchmaking. And Space Combat.
