Honestly, I was fine with it at the start, but the further I went the more I just didn't really feel like playing. Granted, it's not BAD or anything, but it just doesn't really capture my interest like the rest of the Halo games did. The Forerunner mission in particular just reeked of issues such as enemies blending in with the background, really annoying enemy gimmicks, and the missions felt a lot longer than in the other games. I know the game is only eight missions meaning longer missions make sense, but nothing was really impressive of the first three we did. My partner for the game wanted to quit during the third and after playing a bit of the fourth, I agreed. A lot of stuff is also pretty jarring, mainly the sound design. Some of the guns are fine but the newer ones just didn't really feel all that good to use. I don't hate the game, it's far from the worst thing I've ever played clearly, but it's not enticing enough for me to want to continue. Overall, pretty disappointing Halo game that isn't terrible but but interesting enough either.
