Title says it all.

This is a judgement-heavy zone and everyone has bad taste.

    I’ve only recently become a fan of Halo, so I don’t have the exact same experience and nostalgia for it as many fans do.

    A few months ago I played through every Halo game in a somewhat chronological order:

    Combat Evolved, Reach, ODST, 2, 3, 4, Guardians and Infinite.

    Halo captured my imagination and set it on fire, and I’m in love with the series. I’m not a lore expert, but I’m on my way there.

    The Paramount tv series adaptation took everything I love about Halo and put it on the tv screen.

    The series follows the canon lore for 95-ish percent of the time, and the deviations and differences are vastly overblown and blown out of proportion by detractors and make complete sense in the story.

    The show is a fresh remix of Halo while being different enough to keep it exciting and interesting.

    I think Pablo Schreiber is an excellent and grounded Master Chief, and Halsey’s actress is phenomenal.

    The aesthetics and visual design of Halo are exactly how I imagined a live-action version, and the music is enthralling.

    I love the world-building and the more grey morality and ethics compared to the games.

    The covenant’s CGI is very convincing, and the weapons of the Spartans are just chef’s kiss
