If you're listening to the unwarranted hate online and not giving Marathon a real chance, you're doing yourself a massive disservice.

The online hate doesn't change that it's wearing a single player 90s game as a skinsuit while the actual game is a royalty free Tarkov clone.

Bungie gives us the best extraction game to date.

one of the best art directions in a MP game ever.

Insanely tight gunplay and amazing end-game maps.

Everyone who plays Marathon is having fun.

Sad, broken losers cries instead of enjoying what they enjoy (probably nothing).

It's not Marathon 4, therefore I will never give a shit about it. No hate, just absolute disinterest in the genre they used.

Trying to meme every western game to fail because of anti-dei culture war bs isn’t going to turn the tide. If they are willing to lose 100’s of millions for their cause 1trillion is a drop in the bucket to them.

why oh why are shitter threads not deserving of a public ban?
>>
>>736433604
Ironically, the shitflinging around Marathon is why I remembered that this game exists. I thought that people were being too harsh on its art style, so I decided to see it in motion, and ended up being interested by some Rook gameplay footage, so I bought it. I like Marathon, but it needs some work.

Marathon is for queers and sissies.
If you defend it I assume your queer or queer adjacent. It’s pointless arguing with the shills, it’s evident the game sucks. Just ignore them.

Arc has a wider appeal, so it has more players. Bungie will need to somehow widen Marathon's appeal if they want to turn a profit.

It confuses me why they narrowed the appeal so tightly.
Hardcore extraction shooter live service but also high concept art design deep argument lore. Anyone likely to be into some parts of that will almost certainly be turned off by another part.
