Didnt have 4 much in memory (meaning it wasnt impactful to me) and 5 is also non-existant.
Infinite was meh though I like Cortanas replacement. She has good humor.
regenerating health, allowing for a smoother difficulty curve and easier time balancing for devs
online multiplayer
A-B tested a bunch of controls for console shooter control schemes going forward
Until halo right-stick to turn, ads to aim on screen was a common control mechanism.
As soon as it released regenerating health, the control scheme and online multiplayer became a must-have for AAA fps.
For PC it’s basically just regenerating health, which was has proved to be a mixed blessing.

Unpopular opinion buy I found Halo, in general, to be very mid at best.
That’s a pretty popular opinion, actually.
Halo revolutionized the FPS genre on consoles. While some aspects are definitely mid there’s a reason why it’s held so highly for many.
IMO only Reach to 3.

I feel like “mid” is pretty generous in my opinion. One of the most over rated series to exist just behind Elder Scrolls trash games.
Why would you downvote this person? This is the bravest comment on Lemmy.
I take it you were not a console gamer when it came out?
Correct. PC gamer. It’s probably why it was very mid for me as a FPS.
Really it did a few major things for fps
