In Response To: Re: Updaters needed (Stephen L. (SoundEffect)) : I'm all for seeing the new stuff. Just please minimize changes backwards into : the already-established stuff please. That's what I care about preserving : the most is the older stuff. Same here. With a fictional universe that is meant to be consistent, there's little reason to invest into anything if there's no telling if it will be overwritten at some point in the future. One can always enjoy individual pieces of fiction on their own, but if the big picture is broken, a large part of the appeal is lost for me. Personally, I didn't have that much of a problem with the Anniversary terminals, since most of the canon conflicts were rather ambiguous and could be interpreted in different ways; however, it's the pointless changes like the Halo ring receiving a massive overhaul that bother me. I am, at this point, rather skeptical about the future of Halo fiction. On one hand, I enjoyed Cryptum in spite of some of the canon conflicts it presented and I'm looking forward to the next Forerunner novel, but I was sorely disappointed by the way the postwar story headed in Glasslands. I can only hope the damage done to established characters and the whole setting can and will be mitigated in future fiction. I guess it all depends on how much of Glasslands was really part of 343i's grand vision of the story and how much of it was made up by Traviss. Wish Nylund would come back though.
