Halo 5 Gaurdians: Redeemable?

[Pessimism Jester]

I, unfortunately have not gotten the opportunity to play the newest main halo game, but I have watched a play through of it. The game is absolutely stunning, In fact it is one of the most beautiful games I've seen, but I have some major complaints about the story. My biggest Complaint is about Cortana. It's like she's not even remotely the same person that died in Halo 4. Why is she evil? While I guess there are explanations for why this is happening (Librarian Geass, Possibly she's being impersonated) I'm just super disappointed because I always thought halo was far better than the Synthetics vs organics trope. Secondly, Blue team didn't get nearly enough screen time. Like??? I was given the inpression that the game was gonna be 50% ossiris and 50% Blue but what we got was more like 80%-20%. I also wish that Thel Vadam had gotten more of a role, but that's just because he's my favorite character. What really gets my goat is Jul 'Mdama's death. 20 minutes into the game and Osiris just swoops in and unceremoniously dispatches one of the most relatable and patient villains in the series.The game as a whole may be redeemable but I cannot forgive this scene at all. Despite these things Halo 5 was far from a complete disaster. I really appreciated all the Sunion missons.
