I acknowledge my user name is stupid. However, I promise I'm not.

Disclaimer: The latter is a lie.

Who is your most irritating character in the Halo universe?

Personally, I'd have to go with Dutch from Halo 3: ODST. I find him to be an idiot, and his character made me lose a sense of ODST's 'darker' tone. His constant unfunny jokes made me rage a million times - as if an ODST would do that when fighting the Covenant.

What about you, fella/lady fella?

Group is Soldiers of War, ask for invite if you're interested

I feel the same way about Dutch, but i also found Romeo to be irritating at times as well. He had no regard for authority, (constantly going against Buck and the intro scene with the Captain, [the name escapes me at the moment]). But overall I believe Dutch could have been slightly less bothersome.

Fair enough.

Do not take this as an insult, but why are you so interested in the Halo universe (as evident by your posting history and 'Fabled Legendary Member' prefix), and why do you even like Halo?

I just find it hard to believe that somebody can find the most irritating characters to be the ones with some of the most dialouge or appearences in the Halo series.

Personally, I wouldn't bother.

Jar Jar Binks talked a lot and made tons of appearances in Episode I, doesn't make him the best character in the film. Just an example.

I'm not arguing that characters who have the most appearences and/or dialouge in any franchise are the 'best'. I'm just curious as to how somebody could enjoy the Halo universe when they find the Master Chief, Johnsons and Buck irritating.

Can people please stay on-topic.

You started it. You asked for the character we think are annoying and Grey simply answered. You didn't say we would have to justify our answers or our appreciation of Halo because of our answers.

So, stay on topic.

Because it honestly wouldn't be halo without those 3 characters?

Any spartan could do what chief has done in both books and games, chief himself admits that most could do better.

I have yet to see anybody explain what johnson has done to be badass.

Buck hasn't done a damn thing nor do we know anything about him.


I honestly consider you a child if you value those characters so highly.

Hum, what's that line, make a joke and keep your sanity instead of breaking down and becoming useless?

When was Dutch making a bunch of idiotic jokes?

Most irritating character? Let's go with John-117. Simply because his fanboys.

In seriousness, can't name one. Can name characters with irritating fanboys though.

Have A Nice Day!

Commander, CammCam's Queensguard; Sapphire Mod; 34th Seat, Table of Avalon(Exiled);Captain, HAND

yolo? -blam!- that! YOLTOSS!! You Only Live Twice or Some -blam!-

Miranda Keyes was the most aggravating for me.

"To war..."

I hate that line so much that I don't like her character at all. Still kinda sad when she died though.

  • 12.08.2011 5:34 PM PDT

Waypoint Moderators aren't really Moderators, just power hungry and its goal is defend their beloved Halo at all costs. (Meaning that they wank Halo too much.)

BS Angel is alleged foe so, be wary of Waypoint and its moderators! Do not attempt to move to Waypoint. Enter your own risk.

*WARNING* IT IS MY OPINION.

John-117, as Grey and Daefaron said.

There you go, OP. Happy now?

I'm not asking for Grey to justify his answers. His opinions on characters are his, and I am in no position (nor do I want to be) to change that. I'm simply curious as to how somebody can enjoy the Halo universe while finding those three characters irritating.

If you would like to talk about this further with me, please do so via PM.

Someone is rather precious, eh?

- Without John, the Halo universe would not be where it is today, so yes.

- It is irrelevant whether another Spartan could do what Chief did better. Chief did. That is all that counts.

- It is not all about action. I just thought he was a brilliant character, but fair enough if you do not have a fondness towards him.

- Fair enough.

- If you consider me a 'child' because of my posts in the Bungie Universe forum on a video-game website, you have major judgemental issues, Grey.

"Are you hardcore? Or are you legendary!!"

"The Rookie!!" He never talked, and we always had to play with him in the same dang scenario (for the most part) with flash backs being the only nice thing about it, and The Rookie felt tedious to me through the whole ODST Campaign, honestly.

1)Well Master Chief basically MAKES the Halo franchise. Would you rather a cut-off-the-block main character?

2)ugh, he isn't the best at PARTICULAR things, what he is is arguably the best leader and most well-rounded. You are basically saying, "Well, he isn't the best at ALL things, so he isn't one of the best S-IIs." Linda maybe a better sniper, but MC would probably whup her in H2H. Kelly may be faster and can beat him easy in H2H, but I bet Chief could out-sniper her.

3)Halo: Contact Harvest? Fighting hordes of Flood? Badass/awesome quotes? Being a S-I NavSpecWar Sniper?

4)Agreed.

5)So if you value the most well-rounded S-II and the most well-known and explored Halo character, or a S-I Sniper with some awesome quotes and also has a pretty well laid out backstory, you are a child? I can understand Buck, but still. I'm sorry, but who SHOULD I value?

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

Your most irritating character is the main character/hero of Halo? That's surprising.

I'm going with Noble Six. Simply because of his fanboys. And because he's overrated. And because he has no personality. And because he's just overall boring. And because he's just another one dimensional character like all of NOBLE team.

I don't find any character particularly annoying, oh wait, besides Kat. if we are playing "By the fans" then a tie between NOBLE 6(Above reason) and Master Chief, for his amount of HATERS/anti-fanboys.

I suppose I may as well add something.

Margaret Parandosky. She is a batty old woman who is picking the worst possible decisions for humanity's future. Funding covert wars, new, unnecessary Spartan programs and using assets to try and justify, while failing to, her hatred of Halsey.

I would go so far as to say she doesn't annoy me, but disgust me.

1. Chief makes the franchise because the "Fans" hold his dick. If they started drooling over another character then the spotlight would change.

2.It was clearly stated in the books that there are several spartans that are better leaders than kurt. Such as Kurt and Fred. Um this is what i mean by "Holding his dick". Out of 10 chief ranks a 5 on everything save for luck which he gets a ten on. He is the "best" spartan because he is the average one.

3. The only thing "badass" he did in contact harvest was shoot a railgun. I can give you the flood but nothing else, even so that was a retcon.

5. Try investing in characters that don't get spotlight and are actually pivotal to the story.

You say halo "wouldn't be where it is today" without John yet say "It is irrelevant" when being told any other spartan could do what he has. So your just ignoring a point.

I don't see how my personally thinking you're a child because you have shallow tastes in characters means i must have some issues. Seriously, is everybody expecting answers in opinion threads tonight?


And i shouldn't have to PM you if your the one asking.
