I'm not sure about the games that come (or used to come) as (an optional) part of the system, because I have WITHOUT_GAMES=yes in my /etc/src.conf. However, the fact that that setting causes no errors or warnings and that it's still documented in the src.conf(5) man page, suggests that they're still there, at least when building from source. > > Do you really think stage is going to be added to those game > ports?

I play Quake II single player (the original mission pack and the xatrix, rogue and zaero mission packs), using the games/q2p engine on my desktop. I'd hate to lose that.
