Trivia

  • Cut dialogue for the level Gravemind seems to depict events that occur in the mission High Charity. As the levels Gravemind and High Charity were originally intended to compose a single level[2], this could be an indication that these lines were added to the game before the decision was made to split most of the levels in half.
