Who is going to replace Cortana?

Don’t get me wrong, I think Cortana’s death was handled well and was worthy of her character. But I don’t see why she was killed off so early in the trilogy. She’s been a highly important character throughout the franchise. She is Chief’s very own companion; Halo just won’t be the same without her.

So it looks like they’ll have to give Chief a new AI to guide him through his adventures. Who will it be, and do you think it will have any hops of competing with Cortana’s legacy across the Halo universe?

Please let it be Chakas…

What? How does she die?

Be careful with these potential spoilers.

To thread, I hope its Samuel L. Jackson!

It going to be a Moa.

You haven’t played through Halo 4 yet? You shouldn’t be posting on these forums if you do not want the game spoiled for you. However, if you genuinely do not care one way or the other, here’s a link to Halo 4’s ending:

Me

Cortana hinted at. Who might replace her… Another Cortana AI constructed from the brain mapping of Halsey. Won’t be the same Cortana but no need to change voice actor at least.

How rude of you.

I wonder what personality and avatar this new AI will display.

I’m sorry, but the game’s been out for a month. You shouldn’t be posting on sites like this if you do not want to risk having the ending spoiled for you.

Or you could’ve been nice.

I will laugh at 343i’s proverbial face if that is the best they can pull.

No thanks. I’d rather they go with someone else…

I also would laugh. If Cortana does not return however… all I can say is Halo will be one more element gone which has tied the community together.

She better return. Heck, New Cortana A.I., meet old Cortana A.I… Boy would that be a fun conversation…

Ancient human turned AI who is going insane and has multiple other ancient human genetic memories inside of him voiced by Tim Dadabo?

What is not to love?

WTF is Chakas?

Dunno.

Adam West?

PeeWee Herman?

Oprah?

> WTF is Chakas?

Prehistoric human character from the Forerunner Saga series of novels.

Didn’t know there were books.

Cortana died, sure…next thing your going to tell me is the Didacts dead.

Yup. In short though, Chakas would become a Monitor and one of his fragments would become 343 Guilty Spark. Chakas came back recently a jacked a UNSC ship to look for the Librarian.
