Oh, what a terrible day to have eyes
Oh, what a terrible day to have eyes
Man, Myth 2 was my JAM. The feeling of landing a dwarf grenade in a pack of enemies (and the grenade actually exploding) was 👌
The writing for this series was great. Overall the game was really a cut above most other things out there at the time. As a Mac gamer (a rare breed for sure) it felt special to have something so good just for us. They did port Marathon 2 for windows, but I don’t think it was a huge commercial success. I’m glad that it was open sourced though so that it could be shared with everyone.
Marathon had a function to record and replay gameplays, and there was a community of people sharing their in game accomplishments and challenges. Vidmasters was probably my first taste of something like a speedrunning community. But it was enough to beat the level, we needed to vid it with style.
I imagine that most fans already know this, but just in case, I recommend checking out Marathon Rubicon, which is an excellent unofficial sequel to Marathon Infinity.
The employees must be crushed to hear this
This is the most sarcastic use of chatGPT I’ve ever seen in a reply. I didn’t even have to bother reading it.
