: The Cortana's nude appearance have her a innocence.
Some people think that the Cortana's nude appearance have her a confidence and making people uncomfortable. Funny how you interpret that the exact opposite way.
: It helped us, as the
: hero, to sympathize with her and see her, possible, as our child. The
: child that we must protect and save. Especially in Halo 4. For other
: players, (and possibly the Master Chief), it allowed them to see Cortana
: as a possible mate for the hero.
Our child and possible mate, huh? So how far do you have to stay from schools?
I never really took her nudity to mean any of those things. It's just how she chose to look, and it made her character unique and iconic. It's not like she's really a female either, despite what 343 tried to go for in Halo 4 (yet she is made from the mind of a female, one that 343 has demonized since they took the reins).
: And random image search of Cortana will
: prove this. In the end, Cortana's relationship with Chief, her
: personality, and her appearance, allowed players to fall in love with her
: in some form. We cared for Cortana a great deal. She was the light at the
: end of the dark tunnel that we could ALWAYS rely on.
Except when playing as Arbiter, and the majority of Halo 3, and the entirety of ODST and Reach... But sure. Some people like you may have fallen in love with the random image search results of Cortana, but she was more of a sidekick to me, and not someone that I gave strong feelings toward, because she was a supercomputer with attitude.
I will say, though, that playing 343 Guilty Spark without her in your head was a stroke of genius on Bungie's part. We felt truly alone, and it made it very evident that having her helped us cope with an otherwise lonely experience.
Nothing to do with nudity, though.
: Halo 5 took all that and removed it. Now, Cortana is nothing more then a
: female version of HAL 9000. 343 Industries took the easy route in story
: telling and made the best friend the bad guy. And I absolutely, 100% HATE
: THIS!
Take a deep breath...
: Gamers and Fans don't want to Hate Master Chief nor Cortana!! But
: 343i is forcing us to.
...
: I wanted to like Locke, but I hate him now. Mostly
: because he's the primary character in Halo5, WHEN HE SHOULDN'T BE!
Well, this took a turn...
: There
: is no soft side to Locke at all. He doesn't have a funny bone in his body.
: He's just not likable. At least not to me, with Halo 5. Why isn't Palma
: leading Fire Team? Why throw in a new character to lead said team that has
: now history with the gamers?
Because Palma isn't exactly beloved by the playerbase (neither is Palmer, though 343 tried to change that with yet-another-comic-series, to poor results). So you're saying Locke should have been nude for you to care about him then? Well okay then...
: I'm getting off subject.
: Cortana was clearly nude. She just didn't have the controversial bits. Mainly
: because she's a A.I. and didn't need them. Here's something to think
: about. EVERY Halo A.I. is nude. Including Roland. Their visual selves are
: only a personal representation that they use to interact with other life
: forms. To help the staff relate them them more. No one actually thinks
: Roland has a penis and testicles; do they?
TFoR made it clear that no AI actually has a real form, but... Well if you want to see them as all nude, that's your provocative...
