As a biology major, the idea of a planet loosing it's entire food chain save for three apex predators gives me an aneurism. I suppose in theory they could get by preying on the strogg themselves, were it not for the fact that the strogg have, you know, lasers. also, it's actually generally herbivores like rhinos and hippos that charge anything that so much as looks at them funny, not predators. For a predator can be convinced that you're simply not worth the effort, but there is no negotiating with an animal that thinks you're actively trying to eat it.

The Strogg are cybernetic warmongers but now I'm curious if they were always like that or are a product of circumstance. Now that we have those extra Quake 2 missions that show the Shub Niggurath presence I wonder if it had cards to play into the transformation of Stroggos as a whole.

Whether they were always like that or not doesn't matter now. They changed to be where they presently are and that's who and what they are now. Even with the Makron and Nexus gone, the Strogg will simply fall into a civil war amongst war lords, fighting to obtain dominance and reunify themselves to continue their "empire".

I've never played quake or know the lore, but those 2 moons the strogg planet has... That gravity generator I personally assume are used to keep the moons in their positions whilst keeping them together as they had mined those moons to the point that they were going to be torn apart by the stroggs planets gravity itself. So basically they used a machine to create a artificial gravity tether to both moons as them being torn apart and destroyed whilst falling back to stroggos would have been a extinction level event. Again I have no idea about quake but that idea I like, the strogg truly rely on machinery to correct their flaws, cockups and outright stop the moons from being destroyed by their own actions.

Quake Wars and Quake 4, with a little from Quake 2, were the only games in the Quake series that I have played. But they left enough of an impression that i enjoyed and loved several aspects of the world and the fast old-school gameplay of it. Seeing a comeback would be pretty cool and maybe an improvement of Quake Wars' Battlefield style gameplay would make for a dang good experience.

My theory is that the Strogg were once a simple race, but when they came into contact with Quake, they began to gain an almost human level of intelligence (not unlike the beginning of 2001: A Space Odyssey). Due to their prolonged exposure to Quake, their minds became warped, becoming personalized serial killers under a militaristic regime. They sacrificed their own bodies in favor of machines. The Strogg were no longer a single race, they were any creature or race that had been conquered/unlucky enough to come in contact and subsequently Stroggified. The Strogg are a close ally of Quake, as it had basically created them. They were the next in line to conquer Earth after the Overlord from Dissolution of Eternity had failed. At least, that’s what I like to think anyway!

With the remaining known wildlife seen all being predators. It would suggest there must be some form of prey that they feed on. Some of them could survive purely as scavengers feeding on the Strogg's organic waste. Only that would require them to live within the vicinity of waste processing, but that all in doors and despite the name. The Strogg doesn't let anything go to waste. It would be interesting to sit down and theorize a food chain of species by working backwards from the 3 apex species encounted.
