Could be. It's all the same to me, since I only ever watched playthroughs of Halo 5.

I think the more valid criticisms is that, to an outsider like Marcus Lehto, it looks like you have to be a super-duper lore nerd to understand what's going on in Halo 5. And in addition to that, the teased Locke VS Master Chief conflict (And everything else the marketing promised) was ten thousand times more interesting than what the final product delivered.
