so the game Marathon (1994) has had a web page full of lore, quotes, and discussions about the game going for 29 fucking years now - this page was basically a proto-wiki/fandom/tumblr page before that shit even existed, and i've been reading it since I was a literal child.

it's incredibly cool to look at the record of the page's evolution - the stuff from the 90s is essentially emails from fans compiled on a geocities page, turning into more modernly-recognizable wordpress/tumblr sorta thing over time.

in any case it makes me so goddamn happy that a fairly obscure game like Marathon(that nonetheless was a major inspiration for one of the most popular games of all time, Halo) still has a bunch of people who love it enough to maintain this record. Bungie as a company may have fallen incredibly hard but i'll always be thankful to their OGs who made such kickass shit back in the day.
