Saddest Deaths In the Halo Series
Halo, it's a masterpiece of a game, and sometimes make you cry miserably over the loss of an amazing character. So, without further ado here's the saddest deaths in all of halo. NOTE: Mainly for the games, but if you want to include the novels or characters from FUD be my guest.Literally, Noble 6 was the only other person besides Chief to be labeled a hyper-lethal vector and, as far as we can tell from lore, a Headhunter. These were Spartans who were proficient in killing high-value targets on their own or in small groups in a stealthy manner.
Also, I'm sorry for all you Chief fanboys. He seems (by ONI) to be more classified, and his profile is covered in black ink. Also, Holland used to call him his own personal Grim Reaper. He also made whole insurrection groups go dark by himself. Decide for yourself who was better.
We literally played with this man in Halo: CE, 2, 3 (and somewhat in Reach and ODST (and in Halo 4 as an easter egg)). One of the most badass and coolest characters in the game.
The Chief and Cortana, one of the best duos in all of gaming, are now broken apart. The Chief has gone through a lot in his many years of service: the risk of Earth being destroyed, the deaths of Johnson and Miranda. But he always held it together and shrugged it off. However, when Cortana died, Chief actually went into grief, questioned his humanity, and pondered who he really was. It was something he should have questioned long before. Cortana was John's only real friend. She always held him together, always helped him through his missions, and vice versa.
Cortana was the side of Chief that had been long gone, and she made a man who was pretty much a machine, and gave him morals that he never truly had. She convinced him that he was a person rather than a puppet of the military. When she sacrificed herself for him and Earth, Chief thought he had failed his duty to protect her. But she simply said that they both did their duties, to watch out for each other.
The big man was sentimental.
"Keep them. He gave them to you. I'll honor him my own way."
"He gave his life thinking he just saved the planet. We should all be so lucky."
He sacrificed himself thinking he just saved Reach.
I cried a lot when he died. One of the best leaders in the saga.
He lived a great life and died a great death.
Sad death, pretty underrated character in an underrated game.
