I have never been more disappointed in a halo game. From the repetitive nature of taking over the exact same command post like 2 dozen times in slightly different locations, or freeing UNSC marines in the exact same way over and over. Then there’s of course all the bosses that 343 just seems hellbent to shove into the halo gameplay despite them never being in 1, 2, or 3. But the worst part for me is how unplayable the campaign can be sometimes. If you leave an area to get more ammo and come back seconds later, all the enemies are back, or it force loads you into spots you didn’t want to go to. And maybe I could look past some of that as “it’s a beta” or whatever the story is this week for it not working. But the story, it’s trash, just trash. You build up all this stuff with Cortona slowly turning against us just to have her dead already at the start of the game without needing to fight her at all. Halos 4,5,6 are essentially the Star Wars prequels of the halo world. I miss Bungie.
