History YMMV / ASpartanInWesteros

* BrokenBase: The fact that [[spoiler:Chief has decided to keep silent about Jaime and Cersei's incestuous relationship and Jaime's attempt to kill Bran]] has divided the base. Some feel that Chief outright grabbed the IdiotBall in not speaking up. Others think it was an understandable decision, if potentially a mistake, given that the consequences of telling the king would almost certainly cause a civil war at the worst possible time.
* NeverLiveItDown: Theon tells Robb he will never let him forget he puked his guts out during the travel in the Pelican.
* ValuesDissonance: The gathered Westerosi wonder why Chief's compatriots would not commit suicide when they were crippled in war, and are stunned into confused silence when he replies that where he comes from [[SuicideIsShameful suicide is an unforgivable sin]] in one of his people's biggest religions, since they consider someone living as a cripple to be a burden to themselves and their family.
** The concept of ''not'' [[RevengeBeforeReason holding grudges]] is pretty damn alien to Westerosi. The concept of [[EnemyMine bitter enemies joining forces to combat common threats]] baffles them even more than the concept that SuicideIsShameful.
** On the flipside, Chief finds the feudalistic lifestyle the people of Westeros live by is barbaric. It's noted that, while he hates in on a moral level, he's more exasperated by how monumentally inefficient the system is.

* UnfortunateImplications: Chief broods at one point about how Westeros would improve a great deal if the UNSC were to come in and modernize it. Although he's not really wrong, the inner monologue still has an uncomfortably colonialist tone to it. WordOfGod has said that this was [[InvokedTrope deliberate]].

* NeutralGood: Cortana and the Master Chief make a point to stay out of politics where possible, only getting involved when investigating big, mutual threats to all of Westeros or keeping the peace within all of Westeros itself. He ''is'' friends with the Starks and resides at the edges of Winterfell, though, and has already promised to protect them from unjust harm. Among other reasons, Chief felt more comfortable building a rapport with House Stark upon coming to learn that said House also tended to be a NeutralGood within the politics of Westeros.
