Really? Aside from the fact it was terrible? It has entertainment value, yes [very little to me, anyway]
1. I, as a long time fan, don't consider it cannon, and I'm by far, not the only person who shares that opinion.
2. I'll need to review this fact, so far as I could tell, the ruins were based on ancient Japanese architecture mixed with Feudal designs.
3. The Elites were based off of a blend of various warrior-cultures, not strictly Samurai, as Legends would leave you to believe. Regardless, the Elites culture is in itself, unique, and should be portrayed as such, not as it's influences or just one of said influences.
My arguments lay in the lack of true-to-Bungie's-Halo-Cannon. 343 are broadening the franchise by making it more appealing to the masses. Though a sound business strategy, it treads on a lot of fans toes. Fans who invested both time and money into the franchise, just the same as those who created it.
Anyway, your opinion is as valid as mine, I'm not here to argue pointlessly :)
Cryptum changes everything because it provides the very real possibility that they're ancient human ruins that date back when humanity was nearly as advanced as the Forerunners.
