I said it after E3 and had a few people tell me I was wrong but the anticipation for Halo 5 was noticeably less than for Halo 4. Previous Halo entries screamed "epic", while Halo 5 felt more like "further adventures in the Halo universe starring Master Chief and Friends!" The vibe was much different and I don't think it made many non-hardcore Halo fans consider it a must-play game.

This, I think, is what happens when a publisher basically tells you that this series is going to go on forever. You lose that sense of meaningfulness.
