343 just sucks at making good halo stories, great gameplay (on infinite atleast), but they just don't know where to take the story. I was disappointed in 4 skipped 5 and infinite was another halfbaked story that just felt empty.

They capitulate too much.

As the other reply said, half the (H4) game was good. But they listened to the haters and changed up H5 dropping or rehashing the majority of things from H4. Then they capitulated again and threw everything out for H6 and gave us essentially H7 in all but name.

Years spent bringing everything to a head for 6 with Cortana, the Guardians, even Halo Wars. Then it’s all confined to audio logs.

I want to finish that damn story 343. Not whatever the fuck Infinite was.

Yea infinite was strange because the whole thing was like a prologue

I've said before, Infinite feels like the DLC to a Halo 6 game that was never released.
