This started off as a comment reply , but evolved a bit so I thought I ' d make a separate post . Rant inboundMisleading advertisements was the worst part for me . Not only were they all absolute lies about the direction the story would be taking , they ' ve gone back and retroactively deleted some of them off of the Xbox channel . They KNOW how badly they were lying , and they ' ve made a feeble attempt to cover it up . In fact , while I ' m ranting about those adverts , why WASN ' T that the plot ! It would have been SO much better than what we got the idea of Chief going AWOL in a desperate attempt to bring Cortana back , while exploring his own humanity , would have been perfect . Blue Team joining him because of their family bond , and the new rookie Fireteam going after them , but always being one step behind would have been great too . That whole direction just worked fantastically . The bridge scene from 4 was the best part of the game in my opinion , it showed Chief questioning everything after the loss of his greatest friend . But no , Cortana ' s back everyone ! And she ' s Now go fight this bullet sponge boss 5 times . Round of applause , great job . You had such a promising foundation laid by 4 , and you demolished it to build it out of dirt instead . I don ' t think this campaign gets enough stick personally , after a few weeks this sub seems to have brushed it off as ' not bad ' because the multiplayer is so good . When the advertising is a better story than the game itself , you ' ve messed up big time . Side note , Hunt the Truth was fantastic and every Halo fan owes it to themselves to listen to it . It has absolutely no relevance to the game , because god forbid the Campaign has any interesting parts whatsoever , but it ' s a great selfcontained piece too .
