I havent watched the Peripheral, is it any good?
The Peripheral was great... still haven't watched The Expanse, but have heard its well rated.

Halo is flipping huge though. I've seen nothing to suggest game fans didn't respond well. I loved it and I've played all the game and read the books. Don't be fooled by the loud minority on the internet.
Yes!

Yes!
Yes, really good need to use your brain to watch it as well.
Yep, I'm not sure what appeal it would have to the mass audience if they "did it properly" and covered all of the lore stuff that real 40k fans are interested in.

Thats the crux like always
Fan nerd level adherence to lore above all else will result in poop. Sure the nerds may love it, but its going to flop in regards normies and won't renew.
Normies targetted audience will have a high chance of annoying the nerdies and but they like to make drama about IP changes.
A great writing team and exec producers will find the balance between sticking to the lore to keep the nerds happy (remember always, a good adaptation actually made will always trump a perfect one not made or cancelled), plus with a story and writing that means people with no lore just take it at face value and judge it on its watchability.
At least with 40k the game came first and the books after. The game didn't have that much lore in it so if using that as the main source it gives more creative scope than trying to stick to the books.
40k is Huge, your thinking from a UK perspective.

Almost think this needs to be animation though to get the scale of things, cgi would end up too expensive, or look bad. Think scale of what they did in Invincible (or Vox Machina / etc) for example compared to Jupiters Legacy as a comparison, which looks terrible!
I would second a Gaunt or Eisenhorn series would be great, and albeit appears niche, the story elements (if told right) are great and would attract people.

Well it's now on the official website

Terminal List was very mediocre at best, but you're right about their fantasy adapatations, utter dross.
