I thought the campaign was fine for what it was, nothing’s ever going to live up to CE -> Reach and the semi-open world formula felt like it worked really well.
As someone who didn’t grow up with Halo and only played it when MCC came out on PC, I liked the campaign a lot and personally had way more fun with it than the previous games. It felt like Far Cry Halo which scratched an itch I didn’t knew I had. That said I don’t think Halo’s core audience is anywhere remotely like me.

The campaign was not fine for what it was, which was $60.
I wanted to and I agree, it being semi open wouldn’t have been an issue for me but too much goodwill was lost for me to do so unfortunately.
