"I haven't touched Halo 5 and Destiny is to blame" (Destiny)

by bluerunner , Music City, Thursday, October 29, 2015, 16:33 (3408 days ago) @ CruelLEGACEY

I haven't touched Halo 5, but Destiny is only partially to blame. Mechanics wise, I enjoy the movement and shooting in Destiny more than I ever did in Halo. Aside from that stupid warlock jump, Destiny just feels right to me.

The bigger issue I have is the story. For me, the Halo story ended with Halo 3. Everything after that is just fan fiction. The original games heavily implied humans=reclaimers=forerunner descendants, and that's it. All this garbage about gaias and bad guy forerunner just turned me off. The forerunner were this mysterious awe-inspiring race, and they turned them into comic book villains. I've already read the plot for Halo 5, and it left me with no desire to play it. It just sounds like it was written by someone who never seriously played the original trilogy.
