It always seems like in every story, Halo included, the good guys always win. Typically the story goes, the villain arrives, heroes lose, heroes get a plan, heroes win, and maybe there’s a sacrifice or death. Why can’t we have another empire strikes back with Halo 5. I want the main villain to destroy infinity. I want to see earth invaded and taken over. I want to see a story go somewhere a story never could go. Halo 5 is supposed to be the darkest game, so this is the perfect opportunity! Let’s go villains…maybe a hero will defect to the villains side…cough…cough…chief.
Things like that happen in the books. The Fall of Reach? I don’t think the games should have stories like that. Here’s how I see it: the games are made to illustrate the amazing stories, not the bad stories where protagonists lose. There are plenty occasions where enemies win that just aren’t in the games.
So like Reach?

True… Just been watching a lot of dragon ball z lately and the villains in there always just kill everyone… I want to see some ofthat in halo 5… Maybe I just like seeing the world burn
Chief suffered many losses in Halo 4. In Halo 4 Chief was tricked into freeing the Didact, he then managed to escape Requiem, take the composer and compose everybody at Ivanoff Station, and then composed millions of people at New Phoenix. Not only that, but Chief lost one of his closest friends when Cortana sacrificed herself to save him.The Didact may not have composed everybody on Earth, but if all of that doesn’t count as loss then I don’t know what is.
Halo 5 has said to be the darkest Halo game. Multiple colonies are disappearing, and now Chief is being pursued by a squad of Spartan-IVs.

But the didact eventually was defeated. I want someone such as the didact to win… I want the didact to finish composing earth… I want the villain to completely change the universe
Honestly it was one of the refreshing things a bout Reach for me, despite how people like to hate all over it. The covenant seems really derpy in the main games.
Though the death of Cortana at the end of h4 tends to make its ending feel more like a loss, despite saving humanity again.

The only halo games without deaths on the ‘good guy’ side are h2 and ODST.
I’d have to disagree, I personally consider Halo 4 a loss.
- You lose the entire space station of civilians - You Lose an entire City, New Phoenix. - And then Lose Cortana.In Halo 2, Nothing really happens much to be counted as a win in my book, quite contrived.
Halo 1 and 3 are the most victorious.
Then Halo Reach: as slap in the face to canon as that game is, ultimately you die and the UNSC run away.
I hope there is a rogue spartan somewhere in H5’s campaign. Killing other Spartans and civilians, that would be dark while maintaining the story’s credibility.
Cuz the losers are always dirtbags and deserve to be driven into the ground. 'Nuff said
I don’t feel like Halo’s story is cheesy or anything. Everything happening seems logical.
Well if you count ONI as the villain which a lot of this fanbase does then i think theirs a big chance we will see the villain win in Halo 5. We’ve already seen them win in Hunt the Truth and the fictions pointing too them becoming at least the Anti-hero in future Halo titles.

Earth is lost to the Covenant and less than a percent of humanity survived… It’s a lose.
ONI is still around. Ditto the Flood. The good guys rarely win.
Well, let’s see…Master Chief is killed along with all of humanity.
Guess there aren’t any more Halo games…

The only reason why the Didact lost is because Master chief got help from Cortana during the last fight in halo 4. So that didn’t count as a win for John. (IMO)

Hey man little tip lets have our fun in the prentend world because in reality the bad guys do win more than the good guys.
Winning? More like surviving.
Because the winner writes history.
Because the winner becomes the good guy.
Take Halo 5 as an example. If ONI wins…
“ONI, a secret government agency, has captured Master Chief, a former hero who has gone rogue and turned against humanity.”
If Chief wins…
“Master Chief and his team manage to outmanuever a controversial government agency, which is believed to have committed atrocities against humanity in the past.”
And that is the real reason why the good guys always win in the end. Because the winners become the good guys.
