Them just retconning Cortana was such a letdown. Honestly while 5 wasn't great, it did set up infinite to be really really good. Then they went with a really boring alternative.

This is my biggest complaint. Halo 6 was set up to be an amazing game. Then Infinite ended up with zero story. The most interesting stuff in Infinite were the little flashback sequences that bridge 5 to Infinite.

You can really tell that campaign took a back seat in the game. A shame because the open world was honestly a lot of fun, it was just empty and hollow because of such of a lame story. You could have been jumping between worlds fighting Cortana for the survival of the human race. Instead.... we're lost on a ring again, and we're fighting a brute guy we don't care about, while desperate for any actual story about what the hell happened
