In Response To: Re: Are there even timelines at all? (General-RADIX)

: wrt: the idea of actual body-hopping: on the one hand, that feels like a very
: major plot element to not be hinted at anywhere in-game (ex. running into
: your rival AI's battleroid at least once). On the other, this does remind
: me of GMR Magazine inexplicably suggesting that you controlled not just
: one battleroid, but a whole team of them, throughout M2 and Infinity. XD

"Friend of a friend" seems like a hint, to me. Shrug. There are a lot of things in this game that aren't stated other than obliquely. It's a story that famously leaves itself up to interpretation. For example, the whole question of what the dream levels even represent has sparked a few flame wars on this forum in the past month.

IMO, there's no "one true answer" to Marathon Infinity's story. It's like a video game equivalent of a David Lynch movie.
