Yeah, but it doesn't feel connected to the game in a way I was hoping for. You can watch those trailers & listen to the podcast expecting this story of how the chief goes AWOL, then locke has to hunt him down & it's going to be this big show down, which was shown with them both being defeated - ThreadSky

Suffering a wound caused by the other but none of that is in the game. The hunt the truth shows a dark side of oni, & how it tries to portray the chief as not the legend that he is. But again, none of that is even remotely talked about in the game.

Yes. The dark side of ONI was explored in the podcast. Those trailers were meant to hype the podcast

But why are you hoping that it connecting to the game when halo marketing never had that approach?

Halo 2 hyped up a big battle on earth. - never happened

Halo 3 hyped up chief finally being defeated - never happened

Reach didn’t do none of that because it was a prequel

I thought it would've been great to see a new approach to the halo formula by showing some stealth & more detective gameplay. That would've reflected the "hunt" part of the marketing alot better. Like with Infinite's open world it was a great first try at giving Halo a fresh approach

Absolutely. But they did do that. The Artemis. Now was it fully fledged? No. But the story had Osiris searching for clues on chief’s whereabouts.
