"The community is really rough": Halo Infinite developer gets criticized over liking a sarcastic Elden Ring tweet

sportskeeda.com:

A quarter approximately separates the release of Elden Ring and Halo Infinite. The two games couldn't be more different and were developed by separate studios.

The future of the two games also looks different at this point. Elden Ring has established itself as the largest new gaming IP in the last five years.

Halo Infinite did have a bright start, but things started to fall off the initial high. When a developer associated with the game liked a joke on Twitter, Halo fans were not impressed and let him know a piece of their mind.

Halo Infinite had a successful launch when the game released its free-to-play multiplayer mode. This was followed by a campaign launch, which was well appreciated. However, the lack of ample game modes, including fan-favorite ones like Forge, has not gone well.

As a result, the player count has declined as players have asked for more content. This reduction in player count seems to have caused the latest issue in the community.

While Halo Infinite developer David Ellis liked a sarcastic tweet about Elden Ring's player count, little had he anticipated what was to follow. Evan Lahti made the original tweet. The tweet sarcastically talks about reducing the game's player count and how there's a lack of content.

Elden Ring's player count has been reduced. However, it has nothing to do with the game. As with any single-player game, players finish it and switch to another game. The original tweet was nothing but done with humor.

However, David Ellis liking the tweet seems to have crossed at least some Halo Infinite fans. Following the action, a user posted about the incident in the main Halo community.

The Reddit post showed the user criticizing David Ellis over his actions. The user criticized Ellis' actions
