	In Response To: I asked ChatGPT... (ukimalefu) : ...do you know bungie's game marathon infinity from the 90s? : And the answer was: Yes, I do! : ***Marathon Infinity*** is the third game in Bungie’s *Marathon* trilogy, : released in **1996** for the Macintosh. It followed *Marathon* (1994) and : *Marathon 2: Durandal* (1995). The series is a first-person shooter with a : strong focus on **narrative, nonlinear storytelling, and terminal-based : exposition**—and it’s often seen as a spiritual predecessor to *Halo*. : ### Key features of *Marathon Infinity*: * **Complex, nonlinear plot** : involving alternate timelines and reality shifts. : * You play as a cybernetic security officer, caught between the wills of : rogue AIs—especially *Durandal* and *Tycho*. : * Introduces the **"Jjaro"**, a mysterious ancient race, further : expanding the mythos. : * The level design is more abstract and puzzle-heavy compared to *Marathon : 2*. : * A full-featured **Forge map editor** and **Anvil physics editor** were : included, empowering a strong modding community. : * Famous for its cryptic terminals and dream levels that explore themes of : identity, fate, and control. : The game (and trilogy) has had a cult following, especially after Bungie made : the engine open source. You can still play it today through the : community-maintained **Aleph One** engine. Did you ask it... "What happens in Marathon Infinity?" Cheers Hamish
