They did they same kinds of things re character changes and then tried to insert real-world meta analysis of how the unsc treated/made the Spartans as character motivation in a way that made no sense in-universe. They introduced new characters that didn't contribute to the universe and completely changed the trajectory of multiple characters... And made Cheif a whiny bitch, that also deserted his post to boot. Complete bastardization of the material, nothing to mitigate.

Oh totally. Just because it was done so poorly doesn't mean I can't appreciate some things still is my point. 

Overall it's a disaster. They should have really just made it an action show and Chief should *not* EVER remove his helmet. That's a pipe dream though since the actors tend to always want their face shown it seems.
