The potential was through the roof as was the disappointment.
The negatives.
It doesn’t feel like a Halo game, the open world feels empty and boring, the weapons aren’t fun to use aside from a few exceptions and the rage inducing need to put everything behind a paywall (so sick of this practice in games)
The positives.
The new AI is actually quite well written and fits well I was worried how they would handle it but they did well in that respect, some of the new abilities are interesting (the grapple is the only one I really care for) and the armour style has returned more to the original look rather than the heinous halo 4 and 5 armour styles.
The unforgivable.
It’s set on Zeta Halo and is one of the most lore infused locations in all of Halo, the Primordial, Mendicant Bias, the flood so much potential for this location and it has been wasted.
