This is a true return to form for Halo and an incredible experience on PC. Most fun I've had in an FPS since BF4 and Titanfall 2. If you grew up on Halo 3 or Reach the nostalgia will slap you upside the head and the relentlessly fun gameplay will keep you glued to the screen for hours on end with your friends. 10/10 would erase all sentient life from the galaxy again.

Update at 30 hours and 100% the campaign with the exception of LASO:

Single Player:
+Decent narrative that doesn't exposition dump on you
+Best characterization of Chief we've ever seen
+Clean slate for 343 to build off of
+Grunt dialogue
+Marines follow you around now, and can actually kick some ass
-Bullet sponge enemies
-Bullet sponge bossfights with invincibility phases (Whyyyyyyy)
-Only one biome (forrest) with lots of kill walls to make player traversal of the ring a massive pain if you're not in a flying vic.
-Vic health has been nerfed like crazy.
-The Weapons' voice lines are often used in attempt to ease the tension or be funny. They often come off as campy/cringe
-The campaign feels like a prequel for whats to come and ends abruptly.
-Campaign cosmetics are a joke. Not a single armor piece, just coatings.
-No coop
-No level selection function

Overall Singleplayer: Not worth the 59.99 pricetag. The campaign is too short, is missing coop and level selection, and the unlockables for multiplayer don't make up for the gap in content or replayability. Wait for a sale or buy gamepass for a month.

Multiplayer:
+Gameplay is solid
-Just about everything else.
The problems with this games multiplayer are thoroughly documented across the web, but overall it still gets a recommend thanks to the low low price of $0.00. I might consider throwing money at this game once 343i has worked through its core issues (Netcode, monetization, technical,and community features).
