Halo is a Story to me

On these Forums as we all Know is a lot of Copmlaining .Everyone Has a idea on how Halo should play and they come here to share it .For me though Halo is a Story.A story with Epic Characters and John-117 at the heart of the story.The Books,The Campaigns that to me is Halo.The MP is just a bonus .Just make MP fun and Semi-Competitive and I will be Happy .When a new Book or Spartan ops Episode is out though you will not see me on the MP .Just wondering How many others Share this view with me ? Do you Perfer John saving the Galaxy or shoting Noobs up in MP ?

I liked the story, but the campaign in Halo 4 had a few problems that really bugged me and wasn’t written as well as they were hoping it oculd have been. Not only that, but they seem to be taking the story in a direction that I just don’t agree with.

Let me tell you, if the Didact is going to be the main villian for the next two games, I don’t think I can stomach it.

I completely agree, I love and play Halo for the story and characters. Such a great, mysterious, epic, emotional, and deep.

I expect Halo 5 and 6 To bring Possibly bring in other Spartan 2’s.I so Hope Fred,Linda and Kelly. As for the Diadact I feel that in time maybe he will be a ally .To do that though a Common threat I feel must rise .Flood or Precursors ?

I prefer the total package. By this I mean a campaign that is engaging with a good story, likable characters, universe that is rich with lore. Also, other suites of game play, like multiplayer and firefight, that are balanced and have a high degree of replayability.

I buy Halo games for the total package, not just a story. The adventure is not just confined to the campaign. New “adventures” and experiences can be had in MP and new friends can be made. Maybe it’s just me but, I expect more from a game that offers multiple modes than just one thing.

I agree that Halo is mostly a campagin game, the story is what sells it. The multiplayer is to give it lasting appeal, and I love it, my only problem is some of the balancing, but everything is usable.

And as for complaining, if you go on ANY video game forum, majority of posts are complaining. Its just the way forums work. People also like to dramaticize their complaints, make them seem like huge deals, thats annoying.

Halo without an A+ campaign just isn’t Halo to me. I’ll never forget the rush I got from the first level of Halo CE, dropped right into the middle of an Alien war that was larger than life! It’s probably why I enjoyed this Halo more than some people on this forum. It was a great campaign, and the ongoing Spartan Ops is exhilirating!

The sad truth:

MP is what Halo’s about now. Campaign is just a 5-6 hour venture before it’s abruptly cut off and you have to try out Spartan Ops.

I partly agree to this but on the other Hand With FUD and With more books being released then ever I feel the story has never been so Popular .

I agree. MP has always been a secondary endeavor to me. It’s a fun distraction, but the heart of Halo is the story.

That statement is 100% True
