In Response To: Re: Story in Marathon Eternal (Doomguy)

: If you traveled back in time to the First lvl in Eternal wouldnt you
: encounter your former self in that area?

Well, I guess the point is that you *shouldn't* have met yourself, or else you would have totally mucked up the timeline. I guess this leads to the "travelling back in time to be your own father" sort of paradox.

Ugh, my head hurts now...

: Or is it because you traveled back in time to the first lvl but this first
: lvl is in an Alternate Reality/Parallel Universe. So you not only traveled
: back into time at the near the End of Eternal but you traveled to a
: different universe.

Well, yes and no. I'd hazard a guess and say that each "Decision Level" is a fork where two possible timelines/universes diverge from the one you're currently in.

: PS: If you don't want to give the plot away here you can PM me about it on
: the Pfhorums. My account there is Doomguy91.

HA! If you know what the plot is, please tell me. I don't have a really clear handle on it myself, mainly because my perspective on Infinity and Forrest's diverge somewhat, and obviously Eternal was made with his perspective in mind.

I've not even beaten the scenario yet. God damn, Forrest, couldn't you have been a *little* more kinder with the placement of those Jjaro defense turrets? (At least Rubicon was reasonably sane with its maser turrets!)
