Recently, I heard Judge talking about what he’d like to see in a future game, and I was so excited to hear he’s hoping they’ll bring in some Egyptian mythology, like from his Stargate days! That would be incredible.

During a recent interview with Rolling Stone on October 24th, Halo: Campaign Evolved’s executive producer, Damon Conn, and game director, Greg Hermann, discussed the game’s development. When asked about the use of artificial intelligence, Conn clarified that while AI can help speed things up, the game is ultimately created by people, not machines.
