: We're all very familiar with those mods. And I'm wondering if we're getting
: diminishing marginal returns by continuing to look at the most popular
: ones.

: I think it would be more interesting if you looked into less well known mods,
: even unfinished ones.

: I think Return to Marathon has some interesting things to talk about even
: though it was never finished.

: And Marathon: Apotheosis is really good. Although unfinished I consider it
: technically complete (all the maps seemed to be complete, at least). It is
: a quality scenario and has new enemy sprites, including a new alien race
: whose visual design I like a lot.

Apotheosis is a phenomenal game. It's easily my favorite scenario for Marathon. If you've played Portal of Sigma or a few other scenarios, you'll notice reused maps that were originally built for Apotheosis. They're damn good maps. :)

I found RED to be bombastic fun with creative levels, but EVIL always felt a bit simplistic.
