Yes, it gets up it's own ass a tad. No arguments there. Ever seen Prometheus? Or played Mass Effect? This is not exactly a rare thing for sci-fi.
As for the fact that it's a 'love story', I think that's a pretty reductive way to look at it. The characters care for one another - that doesn't mean it's romantic. Was Shawshank Redemption a romance because it had too characters that cared for one another?
The relationship between Cortana and MC seems like a totally valid means to explore and expand on the characters personalities, and the lore of the universe (AIs, Spartan program, etc).
