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.

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.
The campaign was not fine for what it was, which was $60.
