Halo 2

Completed Halo 2.
I remembered Halo 2 as being short and abrupt, but this time, despite a good start, I couldn’t wait for it to end already. They don’t have rocket zombies anymore (there are zombie with rocket launchers, but they aren’t as obnoxious), but brutes with grenade launchers aren’t much better. You pop the corner and get oneshot by a grenade to the face.

The final boss fight confused me as much now as it did back in the day. You fight this white Brute with a hammer, and mostly, he can’t kill you, unless you get stuck, but its unclear if his shields go down based on time or on the damage, and since there’s no lifebar, you can’t know. Also, I didn’t remember that you fight him as Arbiter, not as Master Chief.
