It unequivocally fucked.
ARC Raiders ate their lunch on the mass appeal chill game angle.
Which is almost a non-issue because they somehow made a game that's more frustrating to progress than Tarkov.

I thought that was one of those big AAA SciFi shooters that flopped hard? Is it really not even out yet? I guess I'm getting it confused with that hunk of shit called Anthems or whatever that you could tell was gonna be a 100 million dollar down the drain stinker in the first 10 seconds of the first trailer.

I really wonder if this will be the nail in the coffin for bungee, I bet this was expensive and there is a zero percent chance this does anything but lose millions of dollars. It looks exactly like every single other AAA SciFi floptrash.

Arc is super casual and the quests are nothing more than collect light bulb or go to new area for the first time.
Marathon has actual "story" quests that actually push a narrative and have you actually do things on the map as if it were a single player campaign.
Played the last two tests.
It isn't for everyone though and by that I mean casuals. It is closer to Tarkov in difficulty.

It is sluggish, slow, ugly looking crap. These types of safe, no risk taken 150 million dollar budget crapfest shooters are a dime a dozen right now. This game is in the same league as Anthem. It will come out, be a slow, meandering, nothing new, boring, do nothing console shooter, the same as all the rest, it will flop, the servers will shut down in 6-12 months, and Bungee will have mass layoffs or some other type of corporate meddling from Sony to keep them on life support. Look at the trailer again. This is the fate of the game, you can see it not 30 seconds into the trailer. Sorry.

It felt exactly like destiny in the playtests. There's nothing novel about it, it's good but you've played it before. That's the actual truth and anyone trying to sell you the game on the core mechanics level is really grasping at straws, what will actually make or break the game is the lore and gameplay loop.

What does that mean? Bungie just knows how to design guns they feel satisfying to use, even in Destiny 2 almost all guns are fun to use.

Marathon is exactly the opposite game their Destiny supporters like. Destiny players whine and complain about every PVP component they will no way play a game that if you die you lose all your progress when they can't handle invaders in Gambit

Are they though? This was the case at the beginning of the games life but it seems like the only people still playing are more invested than a "normie". The real question is how many of those people will bounce right off marathon given the genre shift. Even if they can hook people narratively it's a very different game.

extraction shooters are ass
you designed a bad game if people go out of their way to avoid the PvP element just so they can play PvE, see: Arc Raiders
but a lot of bots push that game
>>
>>731143047
They complain because they hate PVP period. That portion of the playerbase is dying and can be see when they do trials and it's all sweats. Their content is PVE focused mainly because they know the community wants that. The community is so bad they support the garbage way in game communication is handled because conflict terrifies them

You say this like cracks arent starting to show on Arc already because there's zero content beyond the first couple hours. No loot progression, no story, ai ass generated cutscenes and dialogue etc.

Its 100% surviving on the casual gamgerdad audience right now with a huge streaming audience because 1. The game is very casual freekit friendly with zero stakes gameplay 2. The lack of progression is less obvious when you only play 1 or 2 hours per week 3; There's zero competition because Tarkov is a niche hardcore autist entry in the genre. Marathon would be the only other game attempting to inhabit the same space and clearly there's a lot higher production in Marathon

Everything it's trying to do has been done better (or at least in a way that's amassed a bunch of paypigs that won't jump ship anytime soon). Plus, Marathon as an IP has niche appeal, and the small fandom it has won't be interested in an extraction shooter with almost no resemblance to the source material. The only personality it has is an artstyle that looks novel in artwork and trailers, but feels drab and unfinished when translated to actual gameplay.
It just feels like a last desperate attempt now that Destiny is on its last legs.

what game? tarkov? thats the only good extract shooter.
>Marathon as an IP has niche appeal
this is a reboot so that doesnt matter. 99% of people have no clue there are other marathon games and dont care.

the people that played the original mac games are 40+ and have a wife and kids to worry about. theyre not the target audience for this reboot.

What a stupid argument, so the alternative was to make a shit looking game that is outdated on day 1? It looks worse than Destiny.

The same large audience playing Tarkov and Arc (And those other smaller extraction shooters with like 30k players or something)

I dont understand why people think Marathon as an IP was chosen for some kind of tactical market grab. Its just a sci-fi IP with good worldbuilding they had access too.
They're hardly banking on the fucking 60+ macintosh gamers from the 90s that played the originals being excited for a continuation of the Marathon story line.

Here's how it went down
>Ok guys we want a slice of the newly emerging extraction shooter market, it looks like its the next in thing
>Ok, do we create a new IP or use an existing IP
>*That one guy, rummaging around in the cupboard and finding dusty ass Marathon materials* "...why don't we use Marathon?"

Thats it, thats the entire thought process. It saves money and time

Arc Raiders created a much better on-ramp to the genre than Marathon ever could, but now the playerbase is becoming restless with the plethora of really bad exploits, cheaters, and balance issues that still haven't been addressed. Not to mention how more and more of the players are beginning to realize how little depth there is to the PvP or the general grind.
And with how the devs themselves are now beginning to tell PvP players that the game isn't for them, the market is looking increasingly suitable for another extraction game to pop up.
Marathon probably wont do insane numbers, but it'll likely get a modest and stable playerbase.

A lot of it really is just banking on taking $40 from people curious and likely won't stick around. Even Joe Ziegler said several times the game isn't for everyone and I don't think that's unrealistic or even bad, though if they still have the "it needs to sell double of GTA 6's projections", yeah then it's big fucked. I also have a very strong feel Bungie is going to coast way too hard on the lead into the Ship map with all the raid like puzzles and the expectation of people getting there "is going to be the game", so they'll just expect that'll be enough to tide people. Season 2 drops, minor amendments to things, maybe new little activities on maps, new weapon, mods etc, and coast more on that.

Point I'm getting at is Bungie is already way behind the 8 ball(this game was supposed to be out 2 years ago) and has a very mismanaged approach to consistency in design philosophies. I have a very strong feeling that they're going to really rest on what is shipped as being enough, having no issues charging up ass for little add ons with not much change (like they do with Destiny). I put a lot of time into Marathon tests, and the game definitely got better and would've flopped if they rushed Sept launch(art controversy saved them in this manner), but I just don't know if Bungie is going to have foot on the pedal to keep putting out more shit. They're a notoriously lazy company and love playing on community and fan sentiment to get away pulling goal posts around. "We gave you 1 new character this year, why do you keep asking us for more maps?" or vice versa

Like 90% of the people remaining here weren't around for TORtanic and always wanted to experience something like that for themselves (and being newfags they never noticed that TOR ended up doing just fine regardless)
When Concord finally came around, that built-up schadenfreude release hit them the same way crack hit negro communities.
But the thing is that this period was so fast and loud, that it was over before they knew it. Now, like a good little crack addict, they NEED another fix. Cause they don't play video games here so what else are they gonna do?
Add it a sprinkle of general unhealthy lifestyles and depression, and you've got an online userbase of people that wish for everything new to be bad, cause they are addicted to talking about how bad things are.

>>731145939
What's gay is making a competetive game where you can die instantly without time to react simply because your opponent spotted you first, bonus points if it also has meta progression so you just lost 10 hours worth of grinding gear, and then spending development time on making every square meter have a bush so you can't see shit unless you play on low
If you're making a competetive game then don't waste time with pointless grafix stuff like that when you know everyone will turn it off, or at the very least make sure every one of those bushes isn't just gone, but replaced with a giant green square that's 20% transparent or something

You know what the biggest issue of the nu-Marathon "art style" is? Inauthenticity. It looks entirely like someone wanted to force a distinct look, by any means necessary. So, nothing looks like anything and the only thing that matters is that it's non-artistically sleek and arbitrarily colorful.

>ARC Raiders ate their lunch on the mass appeal chill game angle.

I don't think this is the case actually, ARC Raiders has shown casuals (who were previously hostile to the genre) that anyone can have fun playing an extraction game. While Bungie has been busy floundering and shitting the bed, the pool of potential customers has increased massively. If ARC Raiders goes on to run out of steam by the time Marathon launches, I think it'll have done Marathon a favor in a bizarre kind of way.

Mind you I still don't think Marathon will be successful, at least not the kind of success Bungie/Sony are thinking of. The "mouse aim assist/hyper slow TTK/no voice chat" alpha was definitive proof that Bungie has absolutely no idea how Extraction shooters work, every single update to this game is going to be them hitting their heads against the wall, waiting for the playerbase to tell them what's wrong.
