Jacob Potila was actually a Jacob Flotilla of lies.- WarTurkey
When I was a kid, I thought Halo was about a robotic angel man named Halo. I watched no gameplay and knew nothing about the game, but judging by what I heard about it from other people, I thought it must have been  the best game ever made.

All of those things turned out to be wrong when I actually played it though heh.

This isn't about 'game I thought was going to be good turned out to be shit', it's about things you thought the game had, that's boring. I wanna hear silly or funny things, like you thought a character was a different gender, or thought the story was completely different.

Before I played Halo I thought it was a modern/ nearfuture war game. Like AW/ BOIII style.

I also thought Halo 5 was going to have a good story. How wrong I was.

Playing the Halo demo at the age of 10 I first thought that MC was Cortana and wondered why Cortana kept talking to herself. I didn't find out until later on that she's AI that's inside your suit and you're a total badass Spartan.

You either die a hero or live long enough to become Mythic..
Yes, I too had preconceptions on Halo.

It was one of those sibling things where "he likes it so I don't like it".
My brother was really into Halo and that sibling thing kept me from playing..till I finally gave in and played splitscreen.

Glad I did.
