Hi everyone. Today I want to discuss the legendary Spartan-117, also known as John or Master Chief, in Halo 5 (as the topic title states).
So, in Halo 4 I've noticed that John is getting older. Halo 4 is set approximately 4 years after the events of Halo 3. He is now (2557) 46 years old. Not that old, but he's getting older. For one of the first times in Halo 4 we actually see the Chief fall due to the effects of the composer. I remember it being mission 7. The scientists die but he is resistant to the composer because of the Librarian. Does this mean Chief is getting weaker? I think not, but it is a possibility. Spartans are not machines, they are human. They are not invincible. Especially now that Chief has no A.I (from what I speculate), he is more vulnerable. The Spartan-II's augmentations won't last forever, as they get older their metabolism system weakens. As I said before, they are human. They feel pain. For those of you who have read Halo: First Strike, you would know that Chief was almost killed a few times. He could've died before Halo 2. I am worrying about Chief's fate. Unfortunately he won't live forever. He also was expecting to die in Halo 4. He is always focused on the mission, not himself. When he detonated that nuke, he was expecting Cortana, and himself, to die. What if he did? If he didn't have an A.I like before when he was on missions with the other Spartan-II's, there would be no more chief. We can expect to see chief getting weaker, physically, never mentally. Chief never weakens from his mind. But everyone's body gets weaker. He will only have himself to rely on now, unless he has another A.I, or a teammate/team by his side.
What do you guys think will happen to Chief in Halo 5? Do you think anything bad will happen to him? A serious injury? Will this happen in Halo 6? So far we can only predict, so lets see what you come up with.
