What order should I play the Halo series in?

I was a Sega and PlayStation fanboy growing up so I completely missed out on the Halo series. I finally pick up the Master Chief Collection on Steam.

I’m only interested in the story and I probably won’t touch the multiplayer. What order should I play it in as someone who knows absolutely nothing about Halo? Release date order or chronologically?

Thanks. What’s so bad about 4? Everyone talks bad about it.

3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.
