Its been a while since I played Halo but I recently played a little bit of halo 3 and I also played halo 5 but in my opinion, the magic just isn't there anymore. Growing up all I played was halo 3 with my brother. So when halo 4 was announced we could resist getting it release night. In my opinion, it was too big of a leap. From over Treyarch future-looking armor to just a sniper to easy to hit with I feel 343 hasn't gotten the job done. Halo 4 was almost some kind of wedge dividing the two. Halo 5 was ok with weird aiming mechanics. I think I got too used to seeing binoculars when I tried to aim with an assault rifle and a shotgun, but with halo infinity and MCC coming to pc I have to say I am pretty excited. Although I think halo 5 is ok, the forge is really good. I know this conversation is a bit outdated but does anyone else feel the same way?
Not sure if this exactly pertains to how you are feeling, but reminded me of this, mostly summerizes my thoughts in the subject
