I enjoyed it for the throwbacks to other characters or events mentioned in other fiction. There's a character that we briefly meet in Evolutions, a reference to events in the Greg Bear novels, and a sort of introduction to some things revealed this week (either at E3 or in the GI article, can't remember). Oh, and something from the Halo E3 2000 trailer even makes an appearance!
That being said, some significant things happen that makes you wonder why there's no reference to them in past works (like Halo 4). The main villain is also an obvious homage to another antagonist that we've seen before, with almost the same motivation and execution of the plan. Still, I thought it was a good addition to the lore, though I will say that my bar is pretty low. Overall - 4/5 stars.
Wait for a slow week? Nah, it complements this week's news pretty well.
