> Halo 1-3, ODST and Reach what exactly went wrong for Bungie when they were under Microsoft?

Bungie didn't like how Microsoft managed them. Bungie wanted to do something other than Halo, but Microsoft wanted more Halo.

A Destiny reference can be seen in ODST: https://www.gameinformer.com/b/features/archive/2014/01/09/h...

Ironically, Bungie broke off from Microsoft in hopes of more creative freedom, but as per the article, are running an even tighter ship now... Unfortunate.

I think something went wrong with Bungie around the time that Marty parted ways. He also acted out in a way that made it kinda hard to be sympathetic towards him but he seemed to be a big part of what made Bungie Bungie.
