Note: I don't just critique Trek. I've also been (trying to watch) the live-action Halo series and ... wow. Also quite a let down.
Some good moments, sure. But this should've been just a generic sci-fi show. Feels like a poorly constructed fan fic.

@ellotheth Very much this. As a fan of the games (and even the books) I find the TV series a tad inconsistent.
@ericmann i kind like halo slow get going

@ericmann I'd be a lot more willing to accept the pointless chosen-one-ification of Master Chief and the pointless boring grindy side quest on Madrigal if all the episodes were like Solace, but wow. Inheritance was emphatically not.
