It seems all we are fighting is humanoids. The Cabal, Fallen, Vex, and even the Hive are humanoid. Heck even the Covenant except save the Engineers were pretty much Humanoid.
Where's all the multiple limb crawling or floating horrors that know how to use weapons at in this Scifi/Fantasy opus?

IMO I think that having a humanoid enemy makes it somewhat relatable to us as players. Non-humanoids are more difficult to relate to as you'd need to understand more about their physiology and culture to truly appreciate blowing its head off... And indeed, if you were to shoot where we were to perceive the head to be it may not be a headshot... May even be a groin shot... We just don't know unless we were taken by the hand and lead through a lecture about how to lay the smack down on non-humanoids... Boring... Give me something to shoot
