Halo 5 is a perplexing game. It feels as if it was chasing the trends of the FPS genre but somehow still feels like 343 was trying to evolve Halo past it roots. Creating new dynamics in an IP is a scary and daunting task. It takes a lot of trial and error as well as creative minds to evolve while also not destroying the past.
Halo 5 is an example of how not to accomplish that goal. The campaign is one that feels like its barely held together. Mixing bad and obtuse story telling with new characters nobody asked for or are interested in seeing ever again. Game play that feels like its evolving what you know and love but placing you in lackluster environments that fail to take advantage of new core designs when fighting boring enemies.
Dude, what the hell happened?
