Which may be an unpopular opinion...

The game did have its flaws, but IMO, things didn't really start to go off the rails until Halo 5. The campaign in 4 was pretty amazing and, Forerunner technobabble aside, was probably the best character story this franchise has ever produced. The multiplayer was solid, although not very competitive on account of being unbalanced as hell, but that quirkiness led to a lot of fun moments and great memories. I think the game gets a really bad rap that it (mostly) does not deserve... although the insane plot surrounding the Didact and the Master Chief's sudden "mutation" into a God-like mythical warrior still makes no sense to me whatsoever.

Hate and still hate fighting the Forerunner whatever those things were [edit Prometheans], but cried at the "death" of Cortana, even being aware of those quotation marks at the time. They traded on our investment, big time.
