This game is fucked beyond belief. The bungie stans wont save it either no matter how hard they try a lot of retards on here specifically defend it. If anything good to come of this arc raiders will get a boost in more players after realizing how dogshit barebones of an experience marathon is

are they still trying to release it in march? have they delayed it again?

I hope the game is liked because the original games were childhood favorites and it would make me feel bad to see the name Marathon attached to something people didn't like. I won't be playing it though.

This actually is a good distillation of the art style. It needs some Designers Republic in there too though.

As someone who
>Hasn't touched Destiny 2 since before it was F2P (i refuse to get hooked on a F2P game out of principle because the zoomers who decided that the battle pass model was A-OK are the problem with current multiplayer gaming)
>Has only about 6 hours experience with Hunt Showdown before i got bored and only played the Arc beta for about 2 hours and uninstalled the first time i got shot in the back while extracting... and that's my entire experience with the extraction shooter genre
>plays more single player than anything else
>is VERY selective with anything PvP nowadays
>doesn't communicate with anyone when playing online

...i'm not gonna lie, somehow i'm really intrigued by this. I'm looking forward to that free weekend, and if i hate it, then i hate it. Oh well. But the idea of this being a faster paced extraction game with more tension and build crafting than Arc seemed to have, i could see that being appealing.

and yes, the aesthetic is a big part of what's pulling me into this. it's just too damn slick to look away from.

This game kinda giving me CONCOOOOOORD vibes!

Well this game is basically just that, and maybe a little DUSTBOOOOORNE!.

that's actually a good blend, I could see someone, maybe even Bungie, use it ironically as a banner or something

But its not just PvP anon… its the best of both worlds. Rich lore, narrative, and worldbuilding with the unpredictability of human interaction. Its whats gonna make every run worth remembering. We already have bunch of coop slop out there, and none of those games are worth remembering. None of them create the level of tension, anxiety, or reward that extraction shooters provide. Think about it. Just embrace the chaos of the genre, trust me.

Proxy chat ruins the entire genre. It’s a streamer gimmick to generate content, like GTA Online.

It destroys any sense of actual tension the game is trying to achieve with its art design and audio.
Fortnite has to right amount of tension and there’s no prox chat. Their proxy chat mode is a joke game.
Warzone also doesn’t benefit in any way from having proximity chat other than it’s sometimes funny to hear people yell before getting shot.
>>
It’s interesting to see how the opinion online has shifted toward the game. That’s point ever really takes, just clever imagery to make people connect with the material.

Those shell trailers will have nothing to do with the game, but the imagery of the Master Chief guy taking shots, the assassin doing an anime pose in the rain. All simple stuff.

Gonna play it, getting tired of Embark fucking dropping the ball constantly with ARC Raiders. The trophy case is such a lame ass fetch-quest and in a way insulting. Clearly made by some dude who didn't give a shit looking at a spreadsheet and hates his job, "Who cares what the fuck those nerds want, just toss a bunch of hard shit to get in there and call it a day, they'll play it anyways." Between crashing every single fucking update and getting DDoS'd, ARC has fulfilled its duty as a flavor of the season. Time to move on. I'm sure i'll move on to something after Marathon, too, but currently its next in line to replace ARC.

Bungie tried and failed to balance a pvpve shooter with destiny for 12 years, ask Destinytards how that worked out. And now people expect them to deliver on a PVPVE shooter. Just how retarded is this fanbase?

>But i played Arc and don't TPP or the pve carebears
literally a half dozen first person extraction shooters exist you can go play RIGHT NOW and only Hunt is decent enough to even remember the name of.
>>
>>732244623
Half the reason Destiny 2's pvp balance (and frankly all of its development) went to shit is because like 75% of them got pulled on to Marathon since ~2018.

You are one of the Destiny tards that has 7000 hours and spent 1000's on in-game cosmetics. I'd be seething too.
