It's the end of this current story, which means like it or not, you're probably going to have say goodbye to the Chief in one form or another for halo games. Seriously though, anyone who thinks Halo will become an abandoned franchise needs their head checked. Just because the trailer says finish the fight, doesn't mean the series itself is over...just the Human vs Covie war.
I mean, the essence of the halo story revolves around the forerunners and the rings themselves, not really the war. The war is just a backdrop through which these mysteries reveal themselves, also acting as a catalyst and kickstarting those revelations. Well, at least that's one man's opinion.
Another thing is whether or not Bungie will continue to be the prime developer of the series. Another studio could take the reigns, leaving Bungie to move onto new IPs while just taking like a supervising role in the new Halos, which I would definitely love to see more than a Halo 4, made solely by Bungie, in 3 years. Also even though they've just went through a ton of changes, after Halo 3 who knows, maybe they'll pull a stunt which a lot of other developers have and split up into more then one studio. The new one for continuing Halo, the old on for new projects.
Long Story short: Last game of this story line. More story lines to come. Bungie or not
