Even space agencies use that word, unfortunately it's very popular and common.
Why would they use that word here? Generally names have some meaning behind them. Naming a warship after the goddess of the hunt would make some sense. Naming a plan to rebuild the human race after an infamously virginal goddess is, a bit like naming your condoms after a city known for its failure to stop an invasion, asking for failure.

He probably means the names. Cortana and Masterchief are trademarked and can land you in some legal issues since it's a monetized project.

Best of luck!
How did they trademark a military rank? I need to trademark "Private", I could make a fortune licensing the rights.

People will try to trademark anything. I had a mod for an old Illusion game (somewhere between AG3 and AA2) named "nekomimi", which is Japanese for "cat ears". I had to fight every service I'd uploaded it to because they all deleted it a couple of years later when someone went on a DMCA spree because it was the name of a character in some anime.

Did you do any research before posting? Artemis is actually a very apt name for this game.
Check the wiki for her, then check the NASA website, and then amend your comment. ;)
Another issue is the fact by the timeline of the game, I imagine names for spacecraft are pretty slim.
The USS Elon Musk is more likely taken. And the USS Trump was given to a sewage troller. :whistle:

Overview: IMPROVED
You're the last hope to save mankind, You find yourself onboard a spaceship,
without any memories of how you got there.
It becomes your mission to do everything possible to secure the survival of your race"

Please, for the love of Mankind, replace your overview! ;)

Besides the obvious Engrish, it looks interesting.
Thanks, The Coder
Still a little wonky, and I mean this in the nicest way possible.

"You, the last hope to save mankind, find yourself aboard a spaceship.
Without any memories of how you got there, it becomes your mission to do everything possible to secure survival for your race/the human race."

That's an improvement, grammatically speaking. The way you wrote it is still pretty Engrish to a native speaker. It feels really stiff in the first two sentences by repeating "You're" and "You", both capitalized for some reason, and then an abrupt line break to a non-capitalized "without". The last line is alright, but feels a little off.

You're calling your Characters Master Chief and Cortana. You sure about that? Listen, I don't care if it's parody, but maybe add a tag or something to let people know.
No, those are the names give by the mod, the default names are no where close

I love the idea of a halo porn game but it doesnt look like the correct aspect is taken in to account,

imagine a game where chief wakes up in the pillar of autmn and goes on a misson to rescue cortana

the covenent is doing experiments and transfers the AI in to an actual living body that chief rescues later on,

the plot is INFINITE, no pun intended

In the very post you quote I mention that Artemis is both goddess of the hunt and infamously virginal. Clearly I'm familiar with the myth. If you think there's a reason the name is appropriate actually say what it is. Pointing at wikipedia and asking "Did you do any research" is about as lazy as you can get on the internet.

Well, I was trying to stay close to the original feel. Don't want to step on toes, ya know.
I was going to change it up, thought I'd start with,
A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away....
But that seemed too familiar somehow, ;)
Or,
Space, the final frontier, Blah, Blah...
