In Response To: Graphics are great, but the art is a bit meh. (Gravemind)

: These CGI cinema scenes are really great in terms of quality, but I don't
: like some of the liberties they too with the art design. Is it that hard
: to make characters look as close to the originals as possible, just much,
: much prettier and higher-res? Was it necessary to change Miranda's face
: and hair, or give Cortana a bodysuit, or for the Elites to be redesigned
: yet again? What is it about Halo that lends it to artistic liberties so
: much? It has to be one of the least visually consistent sci-fi universes
: I've seen. It just bugs me.

I always chalk up any Elite redesigns as a cross between practical technological advancements and an expansion of the mythos in general. The Elites as a race would be sure to have as many physical varieties as humanity would, so in that sense, I just kind of file new designs away as unique individuals/races within the overall species.
