: Sayeth the Scrapbook: An early plan called for Marathon 2 to end by dumping
: the player in the first level of Pathways Into Darkness, thus making the
: connection between the two games explicit. Plans changed, though, and the
: only remnant of the idea is a vague allusion to “an entirely different
: reality than the one of the starship Marathon” in the Marathon 2 manual...
: Infinity’s storyline defies simple description, relying as it does on
: multiple realities and alternate timelines. Early versions of the story
: included a side-trip to the world of Pathways Into Darkness (since it had
: been cut from Marathon 2) but this idea was eventually shelved for good.
Oh, yeah, I remember that now. It's been too many years since I read the scrapbook. I wonder what "Never Eat Yellow Snow" was supposed to mean. Maybe that's what Giant Purple Mutant Hellbeast is meant to be firing?
