Love the elements of cinema in-game. Chapters 4 & 5 were prime examples. -Yoink!- off the “locals” leading to a massive drop pod invasion set that mood of Covenant retaliation. Having wave after wave of air assault while a team of Mantis defend on Two Giants gave a greater scale for battle than usually portrayed in most missions.
Loved the other chapters too but I didn’t want to turn this into a TL;DR thread. Needless to say I have some faith restored that game play will be fresh and not just something to bide our time leading into the next episode. Can’t wait for episode 4.
