Just finished the campaign *Halo 5 Spoilers* (Destiny)
I think the moment-to-moment writing is mostly great. My favorite moment is the cutscene on the Infinity where Halsey reveals that Cortana is a threat, and Roland loses his temper in the process of defending Cortana. There's a lot of subtle character motivations and reflections going on there. It's a level of writing that Halo has never really dipped in to before.
My favorite is still the scene with Chief asking Cortana to come home, but the scene with Roland is a close second.
I'm really interested to see where this story goes, particularly in Roland's motivations for sticking with the Infinity and humanity in general.
I also want to know the status of all the other AI. We obviously get the impression that quite a few of them join up with Cortana, but I don't think it was ALL of them, so I'd like to see how that plays out.
The story also makes me disappointed there is no Spartan Ops, as it seems like it could be a good way to pick up some of the pieces immediately after Halo 5, with the Infinity sending out Spartan strike teams as they jump around the galaxy trying to figure out exactly what's going down.
