By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.

You're digging way too deep into this bro, lol. I'm going based on the way she looked from 1-3, and then the change in 4. I don't care if it's nothing new. I don't care how hot the girls in James Bond or Final Fantasy are or how important to the plot they are. I never downplayed Cortana's involvement in the storyline.
I DO NOT LIKE HER MAKEOVER IN HALO 4.
That, my friend, is my point.
But I don't care if it's the point, your reasoning for your dislike just doesn't make sense.
Speaking in terms of the Halo universe, sure Cortana can choose to look however she wants. Like I said, if we get that explanation in Halo 4, I'll accept it. It's part of the story. But you're going off of assumptions of what you think the story is going to be. you don't know for sure why she looks that way.
We know for a fact that Frankie has said that Cortana's impending rampancy is a primary theme in Halo 4 and the way they remodelled her was their way of wanting to create a more sympathetic and realistic figure for the audience to relate to. Perfectly reasonable and intelligent choices...
But my point, speaking in terms of the real world, I don't like what 343i did to Cortana. I don't like what the guy who drew her did to the way she looks. I don't like 343i's take on "what her rampancy is making her do." They could have made her look 6 billion different ways, and I do not agree with the way they chose. Based on my OPINION that she didn't need to be anymore -blam!-ized then she already was. She didn't need it.
Once again, she's no more -blam!-ised than she has been in the previous games. The -blam!-isation factor became a MASSIVE thing about her in Halo 2 and, as I said before, her new appearance is only marginally more -blam!-ised than it was in Halo 3.
This is my opinion, I wanted to know if I was the only one who disliked it. And i'm not. No reason to call my OPINION shallow.
Oh, you're definitely not the only person who disliked it. But you must be within a minority of people with completely ludicrous reasons as to why you don't seem to like it. As my dear friend DeceptionCobra put it, YOU seem to be the only one here incapable of looking past the physucal appearance and drawing some kind of significant meaning from it. The fact you cannot see past this portrays you as a tad more immature than the rest of us here...
