Subject: Just beat Halo 4's Campaign.....

Why the hell were people saying this was lackluster. It was -blam!- incredible. After halo reach it was such a breath of fresh air. My one complaint was nothing close to a halo 3 scarab segment, and a potentially awesome but quick-time event final boss. Even though, it was anything but anticlimactic. I loved it. My expectations werent the highest after what I heard, maybe that's why. What did flood think?

I think it was good!

Disregard Females, acquire currency.

Why did it take you a month to complete the campaign?

The human element always mucks things up.

The Didact was supposed to be this big evil bad guy full of badness and he gets defeated by being pushed off a ledge.

Because some people don't get the game on release day for various reasons

Well he survived, so you'll have plenty of time for the actual final boss later in the series.

OT: People need to stop calling him a boss. He clearly wasn't even intended to be one.

Per Audacia Ad Astra

Learn about opinions, OP.
Asking why someone else thinks differently to you is like asking why everything isn't the same. There will always be a different opinion.

I was... Satisfied.

The Chief couldn't even get him to budge. All he did was jab a live grenade into his chest which made him fall off.

No he wasn't. He's a morally conflicted character doing what he believes to be necessary, twisted by desperation and fear for his own people having learned what the Timeless One revealed. Not to mention that it's because of humanity that all of his children were murdered.

I am a monument to all your sins

I agree, apart from the Didact's quick defeat, I loved the game.

  • 12.06.2012 1:57 PM PDT

Sorry?

Maybe I'm just getting older and tired of mediocre videogame plotlines, but Halo 4 left me distinctly unimpressed.

Halo 4 was far from mediocrity. No room for exaggeration in this thread.

There's a “U” and “I” in union but just an “I” in my beliefs

Yeah, it was pretty good. Too many butthurt nostalgia goggle wearing fanboys.

It put me to sleep.

Probably because you didn't get enough sleep the night before.

LOL at people who think Halo 4's story was about defeating The Didact.

It's a marketing perspective that's meant to be misleading and not reveal the substance of the story - the same way "finish the fight" meant nothing in Halo 3 because it left 12 plot points either unresolved or introduced in the last mission, or "take back Earth" in Mass Effect 3 when it's the whole galaxy you have to save.
