I watched someone play this for about 15 or so minutes and it seems like the most boring game I've seen in a while. Some observations
- endless stuff in the game world you have to destroy
- 5-6 marines in a squad all with combat and ambient barks
- overly written audiologs
- overly written ambient dialog
- level design where everything looks like the same sized duplos
- Who is the weapon and why is she written like that jeezus
- Largely the same combat loop from previous halos which is fine I guess but really showing it's age. Saw them shoot the cutout in the shield enemy's shield like you had to do in Halo 1 and I'm like "aw damn, that again huh"
