History YMMV / HaloLegends

* HarsherInHindsight: While the scene with Master Chief giving Daisy DueToTheDead when he stumbles on her corpse was sad originally, it's made ''alot worse'' when you learn in ''Silent Storm'' that her and the Chief we're actually very close. Imagine what he was thinking.

* FridgeHorror: In ''Odd One Out'', there are only five kids (two females and three males) and their mom in the whole planet. The horror starts when how they handle adolescent years or one (or more) going horny (BrotherSisterIncest?). Chief and Cortana have the option to evacuate the family, but considering the Orion Arm is at war....

* CrowningMusicOfAwesome: The use of Martin O'Donnell's and Michael Salvatori's scores from the ''Halo'' trilogy.

** Daisy, the Spartan from ''Homecoming'', has become rather popular on Website/DeviantArt, perhaps because being seemingly TheCutie among a pack of supersoldiers, as well as having red armor.

* TearJerker: A lot.
** ''The Duel''
*** Roh being forced to kill Han.
*** Fal finding Han's corpse.
*** The ending; although Fal succeeds in killing Harka, he dies from his wounds, and the rank of Arbiter becomes one of disgrace.
** ''Homecoming''
*** Daisy returning home, only to learn of her flash clone.
*** The ending; Daisy is shot just when she's gotten the surviving marines onto the Pelican, and with the marines and Ralph refusing to leave her behind, the Pelican is eventually blown up by the Covenant, with Daisy dying in the explosion.
** ''Prototype''
*** The conversation held between Ghost and his dying squadmate.
*** Ghost's heroic sacrifice. [[SenselessSacrifice Worsened by the possibility that the surviving members of Hades Corp were among the many casualties aboard the Heart of Midlothian]].
** ''The Babysitter''
*** While minor, Checkman's death. It's telling how much his death has affected the squad considering it causes O'Brien to fall silent.
*** Cal slowly dying after taking a Gravity Hammer to the head defending O'Brien from a Chieftain Brute.
---->'''Cal:''' Tell them... to get it to Halsey. She'll know what to do.\\
'''Cortez:''' No. ''You'' give it to her.\\
'''Cal:''' We both know that's... ''(smiles)''... that's not going to be possible.
*** The squad silently mourning Cal's death.
** ''The Package''
*** Arthur's death after saving Kelly.

'''O'Brien:''' No. ''You'' give it to her.\\

** Ghost, the stoic, emotionless [[BadassNormal marine]] with a [[DarkAndTroubledPast dark history]] who ends up piloting a near-unstoppable, Gundam-like battle mech, and manages to take out Hunters, Elites, Grunts, two Wraiths, and a ''freakin Phantom'' before going out in an explosion with an epic one liner and [[GoOutWithASmile a satisfied grin]]. Basically, Ghost proves that Spartans aren't the only ones who get in on the action.
