Hmmm. Sad if they didn't have much planned in the first place, Infinite was supposed to be supported for 10 years, were they really going to only release 1 or 2 short campaign expansions over 10 years? Super lame if true. At least the singleplayer DLC doesn't seem to be cancelled. 

I definitely think they need to scrap the Infinite 10 year plan though, and start working on the sequel to Infinite, aiming for release around Holiday 2026 or 2027.

You are reading it wrong, Jason (and Jez) are saying there was never any expansion planned in the first place. Jez specifically says that there was never any Campaign DLC in active development.

That's even worse, how the hell can you have 10 years on Infinite GaaS support that is multiplayer only? How did they think that was a good idea to leave people hanging for 10 years after setting up the Endless? Not to mention to leave fans of the side characters in Halo hanging even longer since those characters weren't in Infinite at all, meaning we haven't seen them since Halo 5 in 2015 or Halo Wars 2 in 2017 or even longer in the case of Alpha-Nine members other than Buck, who have only been in books since Halo 3: ODST. We haven't even heard all that much of anything about Halo side games being in development, we got a non-descript rumor of something called Halo: The Endless, and that was it, they even shot down the possibility of a Halo Wars 3 releasing. 

343's management of the Halo IP is really starting to tick me off honestly. This poor singleplayer support is bad enough, then you have the many issues that Infinite's multiplayer still has, such as overpriced cosmetics, no in-game method for earning microtransaction currency (something even Overwatch 2 has, though you earn a measly 60 credits per week while legendary skins cost 1900 credits), and content releases that are still much too slow.

Edit: We're also still waiting on campaign features for Infinite that were promised for post-launch like raytracing, dynamic weather, and more. What has the campaign team, which is presumably at least a third of 343's Halo Infinite team, been doing since the co-op update released, if not campaign DLC? Sitting on their hands or twiddling their thumbs?
