The original three halo games were fantastic and really well designed. The story was simple and to the point but executed superbly, the soundtrack was one of the best game soundtracks made. Characters were well developed and memorable (even if sometimes slightly goofy) Every level had a different kind of challenge with different unique music that went alongside it, the games were always interesting.
Halo 4 was very different to the original three. This game started out pretty great but then fell kinda flat half way, but made it up for it with a great ending.
Halo 5, however is a totally different story, it's suffers greatly from a confusing plot that's over explained in a very emotionless and Unenthused kind of way. The soundtrack is generic and forgettable and doesn't really add tension or feel to the game.
Characters are boring and emotionless. You only play as Master Chief for THREE missions! The new antagonist who's name I forgot, feels very out of place in a halo game.
They ruin Halo 4s ending by bringing back Cortana with a very stupid and nonsensical reason for her survival, and if that wasn't bad enough they ruin her character by making her all of a sudden become evil.
The campaign missions are flat out boring and repetitive. And last but not least, the multiplayer feels way too much like Call of Duty for a Halo game and to make matters worse, Req points and Weapon packs are now a thing...
Why 343, Why?!
