(Halo) Cortana | Which one of us is the machine

#Halo #HaloInfinite #MCC
This is a video tribute to charterer and story of Cortana from the Halo franchise.
Many felt that her portrayal in halo 5 was a betrayal of her charterer especially after her emotive characterization in halo 4. This video is in part my attempt to nit together the two differing portrayals with the implication of of the fan theory that the grave mind somehow corrupted her on high charity.
I now that this video is far from perfect and would appreciate any criticism on my editing Choices and the emphasis I tried to put on Cortana and johns relationship. ect

This is incredible, better get recommended.

[@rohanthomas4134]

Well I think I have was only recently noticed by the algorithm but at least some people have had me in there recommendations. Also thank you!

[@Justaspartan]

This was the best tribute for Cortana I've seen, it literally makes you understand what she's going through and makes you feel the struggle of a machine having so many thoughts and emotions and even her can't deal with them... you did amazing, good job man, you edited this in an amazing way

[@rohanthomas4134]

First sorry for the late reply, second thank you so much! You hit the nail right on the head, that was exactly what I was going for! I have plans to one day make a John and cortana mega tribute after infinite comes out. I can only hope that it eventually come out as well that this one.

[@Justaspartan]

@@rohanthomas4134 so happy to hear that you had the same idea when you made it! You just got a subscriber and you deserve a lot more! As a halo fan I have to thank you for making this, and the other Halo Tributes which are also awesome. Also, can't wait to see another! Let's hope Infinite gives you enough footage xD.

Almost brought me to tears. This is the tribute she deserved.

[@rohanthomas4134]

Well eventually I want to make another tribute to her and justice to her entire story now that infinite in out. I've been very bus as of late but hopefully I can start work on it soon.

What happens when you do so much work to make a character an actual character, and the fan base whines about better writing.

Got on recommend your channel will grow now 😄 Also i am sad that i cant play halo after halo 2 as i dont use money on games but one day when i tried to buy the gamepass of 1 dollar (yep this is my first time ) but that time it need debit and credit card i only use paytm 😑😑 also why the heck halo 5 is not coming to pc and infinite is coming 😑😑😑😑 Edit - i wanna tell you i am buying xbox series x when it restock

[@rohanthomas4134]

At this point, we're so close to the release of infinite that I don't think 343 want to distract from Infinite in any way other than support for MMC. so a PC release for 5 would not be in their best interest, at least for know at least. It could happen down the road though.

[@ethanhooper8606]

The Gravemind really messed her up

[@rohanthomas4134]

Yes, he did. Hell, there is an entire short story called "Human weakness" which is just about how the grave mind interrogated Cortana for the time before John rescued her. It's in the Anthology novel "Halo Evolutions". The audiobook for it even has Jen Taylor reading that particular story.

[@Rumpled4SkinFU2]

They really fucked up Cortana's mouth (the weapon version) in Halo Infinite.

[@rohanthomas4134]

Is it that her lips are to full?

Soooo.. Who's hear after yesterday?
