He gained the upper hand…yeah you didn’t watch the same fight we did.

yes those are rules in sports, there are also things one opponent will be disqualified if they do to the other, like below the belt hits. those rules do no exist in real combat; i.e. size does not matter. if you knew anything about actual martial arts the smaller opponent always has the advantage, they’re harder to hit and most of the time they are faster and can move out of a larger opponents reach quicker and step into and out of the larger one’s guard. furthermore if they know where to hit its over before it starts. I know its choreographed but the little sparing sequence between Arya and Brienne of tarth in GoT is a perfect example of smaller is better
Oh this is just hilarious.
this was the poorest writing for chief that we have ever had in a halo, it tried to paint him as some noble warrior. Spartan-2’s are killing machines, yes they are human but they are trained to kill and suppress all emotion, and chief going high school guidance councilor with the pilot was awful
You literally do not understand John as a character and honestly it’s really sad to see. We’re definitely done talking.
You should probably go read the books or, I don’t know, totter back to high school, get some reading in, in general. Ciao.

I was less focused on Chief’s pep talk, as amazing as that was, and more focused on how he shook the ground by simply taking a knee.

umm i have read the books at least the good ones, Fall of reach, the flood, first strike, ghosts of onyx, and contact harvest, and what do you mean reading in general? English aren’t that hard, maybe you should get better insults, because even a your mom joke would have been better than that last sentence
I actually loved that. They convey the weight of Spartans really, really well.
They did that amazingly well in Forward Unto Dawn as well.
uh
it was a joke, see that’s how a joke works.
Atriox has the strength of a monster and has been seen straight up crumpling Mjolnir like tin foil. He’s as if not more experienced in combat than any Spartan. A whole team of Spartans got mandandled by him. Chief getting his -Yoink!- kicked in a surprise attack fist fight with Atriox the way he did is not some freak canon braking incident, it’s the logical outcome.

Wow. Incredible. It’s like you’ve never paid any attention AT ALL to Master Chief since Halo 1 except for how good he can kill those aliens. 
Some people just see “wow! strong guy with gun! kill everybody wow!!” and never actually pay attention to their mannerisms, the things they DON’T do, the things they say or don’t say that define character.
Use your brain please.

No, that was a specific reference to RVB, someone who hasn’t watched it isn’t likely to connect that it’s a joke.

It is known and established that Halo is in fact a cool ghuy, eh kills aliens and doesn’t afraid of anything.

This is your worst take yet. Chief has never been some robot. His humanity and how he deals with the hand he’s been dealt in life. has been a running theme since Fall of Reach. Chief’s whole arc throughout the Reclaimer Saga has been about him becoming more than just his conditioning. Shadows of Reach in particular made it clear that Chief is now really apreciating what an important figure he is to other soldiers and society as a whole and figuring out how he’s going to show responsibility in that aspect of his life from now on. If Infinite’s narrative had no other strengths at all Chief’s development would have still carried it.
You sound stuck in the dead mindset that Chief should just be a self insert with one liners which we don’t need to go back to.

There’s like 19 season of that show I can’t keep 'em all straight lmao.
sorry I went a little off didn’t I, I’m just saying this game is an FPS, and while emotion is good in plot, the drama this game is trying to push on us is just a little too soap opra-ish.
Glad you could recognize that.
That’s still just your opinion. Halo’s always had a deep dramatic story. I think it’s absolutely in line with its forebears. /shrug
Nope, there’s only 17, with some questionable spin-offs I don’t keep up with. But that is still a lot of seasons to keep track of lol.
Definitely a lot lol.
