Re: Halo Apologetics *SP*

In Response To: Re: Halo Apologetics *SP* (YNation913)


: The former actually keeps me stress free, I don't see why you HAVE to adhere
: to facts that simply demean the story just because "canon is canon if
: we like or not."

: So when so much is wrong, my philoshopy to avoid a serious headache is to
: pick only the bits that make sense and are the most meaningful to you.
: Personally I only consider Halo 1,2,3 Fall of Reach and Contact Harvest
: "canon".

The even simpler way is to just accept that there is a certain flexibility in canon and, where there is a contradiction, the newer stuff wins out.

Honestly, I have to chuckle that of your list, you'd consider Fall of Reach as "canon" when its probably one of the biggest sources of problems we have. As the first novel, written in a very tight timeline with absolutely minimal oversight by someone new to the franchise at the time (who wasn't then), its one of the most questionable sources out there.
