It's a really fascinating piece of writing because of how raw and unfiltered it is. Sci-fi literature has swung like a pendulum between sterile epic grandeur and psychosexual cyberpunk for years and it's like right in that sweet spot of implications and emotion. Someone just -wrote- that.

Rats, the mystery remains.

the writing in the original marathon games is so, so fucking unbelievably peak. some of the most galaxy brain shit anyone has ever put into a video game to this day.

Had to look this up and - holy shit. marathon.bungie.org/story/arriva...

marathon trilogy lowkey one of the greatest works in gaming

It's one of the most awesome things anyone's ever done in a videogame. The dude who wrote it can't even remember what he meant by it, or why it's in there. Incredible

Sometimes I think game writing peaked with the Marathon trilogy
