An 'experiment in marketing' wasn't the reason id chose to make it a 
multiplayer game. Originally, Quake III was going to be just another game 
along exactly the same lines as Quake II - with the same pseudo-mission-
based storyline. But id couldn't get very enthusiastic about basically 
doing exactly the same thing again. So they decided to go in a new 
direction.
