In this video we examined Durandal, the most important character in Bungie's Marathons story.
With Marathon Bungie created a really dense lore full of subtext. In this video we dig deep to understand Durandals perspective, and begin to explore where the logical conclusion of these ideas lead us. We explore Durandals hopes, ambitions and philosophy, and how these ideas relate to the broader Marathon story told by Bungie in the Marathon trilogy of games.


The AI Durandal is arguably the main character of the Marathon game franchise, having a key role in every game, and being the namesake of Marathon:Durandal. We also subtly veer into some wild speculation near the end. Speculation that is supported by Marathons lore. With Marathon Bungie created a franchise that has influenced much of what they've created since. The character from Marathon subsequently inspired A.Is from Halo.

We also hint at how these ideas might relate to other ideas explored by Bungie in Halo.


"Thus saith God the LORD, he that created the heavens, and stretched them out; he that spread forth the earth, and that which cometh out of it; he that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein:"-Isaiah 42:5
