Opinion of a Halo Newbie

Just when you think things are going to get interesting - another episode of exposition. The only action to be found here comes from Makee, and although it's nothing that hasn't been seen in sci-fi previously, it is good entertainment.

Where John is concerned though, I am getting a bit bored of watching the super soldier play detective. And what is the deal with Halsey's clone? Cortana is a glorified AI, fully interfaced with cyberware already present in the Master Chief - so what exactly was the need for the clone? That bit went over my head, and seemed unnecessary.

It's clear there is more to John than a lab-grown action man, which is great, but his back story and prophecy shouldn't come at the absence of action - this is, after all, based on a shooter, right?

Persevering for now, but this is the first episode I was disappointed with. We need more action!
