The book ones are especially disappointing for me, along with the QTE.
You said that they only stopped with this stuff with Halo Infinite? Am I going to be missing much if I jump Halo 5 and go straight to infinite or would you suggest playing 5 just to be safe?

I wouldn’t know, actually. Halo 4 is the last game whose campaign I played - since H4 is in the MCC, H5 is not on PC, and H:I costs too much for my opinion of it.
Halo 5 is infamously more book-dependent than Halo 4, and …
(spoiler block that I should have used in my previous comment)
the two things in H:I that follow from H5 are cortana bad and Infinity runs away
… , so IF you want to skip Halo 5, at best, you may be missing how you ended up where H:I begins.
There may be a reference to a certain Spartan Locke here or there, idr.
I don’t want to spoil your fun, so I’d say you should run through H5 if you’re planning to play Infinite and if (unlike me) you wouldn’t have to buy an Xbox to do so.
To answer your first question: I can’t say too much about a game that I only vaguely remember from watching a playthrough on YT, but from what I do remember, H:I is somewhat more self-contained.

I think I can probably get ahold of Halo 5 without too much hassle. Worst case scenario I ask to borrow it from my usual Halo Co-Op partner because I know for a fact the has a copy. Thanks for the opinion. I’ve been eyeing Halo: Infinite all day considering getting it with the next Steam Sale, so the forewarning is appreciated

You’re welcome, though keep up your post chain with the two remaining good ones first ;^;
