Thats the thing Masterchief is only human . You may think of him as a warrior , or a soldier but in reality he is just a person .
343i Had to do what they did to improve the story of Masterchief .
As they say 'You will always have more compassion for what you know than what you don't .
They have to get you to know who John really is .
Just as an example , If your dog died you would have more compassion for it than if a strangers dog died .
Exact same thing as they are trying to do with John . They want you to get to know him so you can get into the story more .
