Games and their expanded universes
How should games treat their expanded universes (comics, novels, etc.)?
Should they be included more into games to please the hardcore fans that chose to purchase that content or should they stay on the sidelines as Easter eggs or vague references?
Is it possible to include these events/characters without making the people who chose not to purchase these materials confused as -blam!-?

Well in Halo the terminals were "Easter eggs" and it showed more of the expanded universe of Halo as books which is a reason why people not liking he Didact (of course minus the ones who read the books and saw the terminals). In other words explain the damn story of a character in the game before he/she/it becomes just a "forerunner who hates humans who was a pathetic enemy in terms of the game itself"
