Would you like to see Master Chief added to Smash Ultimate?

Or... they could put in an actual Nintendo character for once :p
Or the Astral Chain protagonist. That's technically a Nintendo character right?
Either way, they'd all be preferable to MC.
I just don't feel he would be interesting enough other than the context of him being in smash. Its a no from me
That seems like a really bad idea turning Samus into a "damsel in distress."
More for the "HOLY SHIT" moment and the stage and music over how the actual character might play, but sure.
Actually, no, I don't. Not that I have anything against the character or the series, is just that I have no attachment to him at all.
Banjo was basically a Nintendo character trapped in another system. If things were different and Rare was bought by Nintendo, Banjo would be in Smash years ago.
As for now, with just two DLC spots remaining, I'd prefer them filled with 3rd Party characters with more presence on Nintendo systems (and Master Chief had only a Minecraft skin on Wii U and Switch, that I personally barely count).

Never played the Halo games but I don't really associate the character with having any kind of personality other than being a generic space shooter guy so I don't see it as an interesting addition.
I'd rather have Smash stick to Japanese characters and characters who are associated with Nintendo. There are plenty of Western fighting games that Master Chief could cross over into.
Samus calls for backup, a UNSC Longsword flies by and Chief executes a HALO drop to Samus' location. She asks "You armed?" He says "I brought a weapon", and unslings an MA5B or some shit, like an actual gun lmao
Fans go nuts.
I would love it but I'm very nostalgic for that series. Sakurai could honestly stick in any character and I would look forward to playing as them at this stage.
Nah. Ryu Hayabusa is the last character from a non Nintendo franchise I can think of that I'm interested in.
No. Microsoft is already represented in Smash by Banjo. The last thing we need is another bland robot man with guns. We already have Samus for that.
The question is whether you would like to have Master Chief in Halo or not. If you don't want to, why wouldn't you say so?
There's no harm in adding, I don't know, Liberty Belle from DC Comics or Jay Gatsby from The Great Gatsby either. Being a video game character doesn't instantly make you perfect for Smash.
Including saying that people should want this character to be included in Smash simply because there's no harm in adding him.
Absolutely, Master Chief is an iconic character and being able to have a fight between Chief and Samus (Haloid Part 2) would be fucking amazing and like someone mentioned earlier, Halo music in Super Smash Bros would be glorious as well.
It would definitely get me to play the game more often, that's for sure.

Chief and Goku/Superman are the last characters left that would really make people go "wtf," at least until they start adding real people or whatever. I'd want it just for the reactions and the trailer. As soon as you hear the first three notes of the main Halo theme you know what's going down.
Are you seriously saying Jay Gatsby wouldn't be perfect for Smash Bros?
I'm not one to go into a thread and say I don't want something when I have no interest in the thing I don't want but that's just me. If there's no harm in doing something I don't see how adding a character to a game will affect me.
Now that we have Banjo in, and we see Microsoft and Nintendo are willing to work with each other, I want no character more than Chief.
He's basically the only console/generation defining character that isn't in the game now.

I wouldn't be strongly against it but I can think of about 100 characters I would be more excited about. I'd feel differently if we didn't already get Banjo-Kazooie, though. People actually thought Sakurai would pick Master Chief or Steve before them.
No, unless you count Roy whose game was meant to come out before Melee but was delayed.
