Here is what I have to say 'bout this stuff:
At first I disliked 343i. To be fair, though, most of that dislike came from Frankie's explanation of the whole Halsey thing in Legends.
Then I read Evolutions, and I was sort of like "Yah, this stuff is okay." But I still didn't like 343i.
Finally, I read Cryptum, which I personally think was a brilliant time period for the series to explore. Now I am actually wondering if future titles could be "good," just from this novel.
So, in my opinion, I personally think that if 343i explores areas of the series that I know little to nothing about, then I will be much more accepting of them than if 343i were to keep rehashing and retconning old material.
By which I mean "Stay away from already released content and the timelines that go with it, and move on to something new; for example: Forerunner/Precursor/Flood Time, Pre-War Covenant, and post-2553."
If they do that, I will tolerate it more than "Hey, look at this awesome death suit of death that has miniguns and gauss turrets and homing rocket and jets all over it, yet for some reason, we only built this suit on one planet with only one copy of the plans for it!"
Prototype was bad ass, though. Only the canonical discrepancies truly disappoint me.
