They shouldn't have relied so heavily on Halo's expanded universe for the reclaimer trilogy. I can't keep up with the story and I own every Halo game on every platform they have been released on, hopefully they can bring it together with Halo Wars 2 this year and I can then eat my words.

Halo 4 things were getting difficult to grasp... Halo 5 I had no idea what the hell was going on, I actually had to jump online and do some reading to work out what was happening and build some backstory with the characters that we were introduced.
Halo 4 though I actually enjoyed to a degree.

Halo 3 was the pinnacle in my eyes for the entire franchise story wise, it just brought everything together nicely, I will never forget the horrible cliff-hanger that was in Halo 2... You would think 343 wouldn't repeat the mistakes of the past... But they did.

All trilogies tend to feel unfinished in the middle act though. The Matrix, Star Wars, Mass Effect, Lord Of The Rings, Halo. I think like most other trilogies the final act will make the 2nd act feel better. Many people now love Halo 2 after 3. Because it fits now.
