A growing conversation is sparking among fans about when the story of the latest series occurs in relation to the Human-Covenant War. New insights from forums are driving fresh speculation, revealing a mix of opinions on the timeline and plot.

Context and Significance

Fans are keen to clarify the timeline of the new show, focusing on its connection with the Halo franchise. Recent comments indicate it spans a period post-Halo and possibly bridges into the end of the war. The mix of perspectives suggests that understanding this could significantly shape fan expectations.

"Absolutely after. Or at least around the time that it ended." - Fan Comment

Themes and Insights

Timeline Uncertainty

Many comments highlight confusion regarding the show's timeline:

  • โ€œMid-end of it, S1 โ€˜And then Master Chief had to go and blow up the whole Covenant armada.โ€™โ€

  • โ€œThe lore begins during the war, but the show really kicks off after it.โ€

Grif's Unreliable Narrative

Fans continue to discuss Grifโ€™s perspective as misleading:

  • โ€œThe war actually ends between seasons 5 and 6.โ€

  • โ€œSome imply BGC takes place during the war, even if the simulation thinks itโ€™s over.โ€

Ongoing Conflicts and New Developments

Fans are engaged with the newer conflicts in comedic light:

  • โ€œProject Freelancer starts in 2548, and the war went on for years.โ€

  • โ€œAfter BGC, Wyomingโ€™s plan included infecting Junior with Omega.
