In the weeks considering that, Project Misriah has actually drawn a great deal of appreciation from both Halo fans and those impressed by what modders might manage with the Source 2 engine.

In a remark on Project Misriah’s YouTube trailer, Froddoyo kept in mind that, following the takedown, the job “will not be worked on or published in the future. Hey, it was enjoyable while it lasted. Thank you to all of the gamers and fans of [the] task. We will utilize the understanding and abilities acquired from this to formulate something else!”
