OP was right! Not even shitposters care anymore

Didn't they steal their entire art direction from someone on xitter and have to apologize for that? Weird how everyone forgot about that

Hey chud, it will probably break 20k tonight on Steam. You won't sound so cocky then, I bet.

Are those the accolades?

Are mods deleting the threads again or did people just lost interest in laughing at this shitshow?

>>737586173
Whachu mean dead, cuh? This is your 5th thread posted about the game in one day. Seems pretty lively to me. Anyways, what I really want to know is where all the shiposters are. Dont tell me you guys are already gassed out… I guess Horizon: Hunter Gathering can be your Concord 2 :)

Technically true, but the volume has slowed down a lot.
>daily headlines
No. Maybe weekly at this point.
>#1 searched game on steamDB
Yes, this is because of people like me searching it to help me laugh in these threads about it. It's clearly not any kind of player interest otherwise the game wouldn't be losing players every day.

>>737592902
Losing interesting. It's still going down, but it's in that middle point where there's nothing new or interesting happening. (No panicked moves from Bungie, no big streamer blowing up about the game dying, no mass quitting or anything) If Sony/Bungie announce it going F2p, shutting down, or getting pulled from sale to be rebuilt, then you'll see a flurry of threads.

Why did it flop?

Still around 200k-300k daily active users. 2 more months.

it's not even half as good as apex a game with 8 tick servers and 250ms response times on actions

Wait for the eventual self dox. The guy even let his Reddit username slip already.

nobody gives a shit about Marathon it's a stillborn game nobody asked for

no I dont like extraction shooters I dont care if the game lives or dies, I just wanted to shit on you because you are delusional.

Watch this nigga try get one more (You) in. Go on. Autists like this can't let it go. Close the thread then if it doesn't matter.

I hope they turn it around No Man's Sky style

Projected max concurrent player count for all platforms.

All I care about is how this fucked up any chance of an Oni reboot.
These fucktards thought turning Marathon into an extraction shooter was a good idea.

a single gamemode that drives away eveyone that wants to have fun without being a sweat
not even pve only mode will save this

The never had any big streamers playing it in the first place. That said....

>No panicked moves from Bungie
They've changed matchmaking, because the game was taking 5 mins to matchmake at certain times in certain modes. They also publically said they're all in on this and not D2.

We'll see what they have in store.
>>
I wish it was a single player story game instead. Fuck extraction slop. Fuck live service games. And fuck you!
>>
>>737586173

hey whatever happened to that other blast having game??
>>
For a live service game to succeed nowadays, it has to be overwhelmingly great.
Marathon is *just good*, which is why it'll retain a small playerbase for at least a year or two, but not overwhelmingly great for the success that Bungie and Sony hoped for.
>>
>>737586173
All the new generation of developers working at that studio called "Bungie" are dogshit and wouldn't hold a candle to the original developers that made the Bungie games people care about, is what. Only Bungie in name. Might as well call them something else so they can stop shitting all over the legacy of the original developers.

You keep using that word, I don't think it means what you want it to mean.

>StS2

Yeah, you don't understand that word. Projected means "forecasted." The reality is: Marathon flopped.

I'M having the BLAST
>>
>>737586173
Game was designed around monolingual premade trios. Solo players were told to get fucked, and so they are now fucking off as can be seen in the numbers.
>>
>>737599291
That team was small, dedicated and just needed to fill in content. This team is bloated, arrogant and doesn't even play the game. Based on their patches, they're going to blindly listen to their heavily curated r/ and read low quality slop from kurppahosk as actual play reports.
>>
>>737586173
Most marketing companies only get paid to talk about the game for 4-6 weeks after release. We are outside that window now and in the desert of the real.
>>
>>737586173
What went wrong? Trannies. Destiny 2 went downhill since the tranny shit started. It's a virus that kills anything it touches.
>>
>>737586173
Ugliness is its own refutation.

>>737604156
>It's a virus that kills anything it touches.
That can't be right. Trannies touch themselves all the time because no one else will.

>>
>>737593157
extraction shooters have a built in game design superpower: people go in with different goals, so it's possible for multiple groups to 'win'. You get the threat of PvP but actually let multiple people succeed. Marathon completely ruins this by telegraphing every action, overcrowding the maps, forcing chokepoints, single-use extracts, etc. etc. It's like they want 99% of players to fail and feel bad.

Bunjeet got too lazy and too greedy. They probably fired all the real talent.

Now there are long ass coping video essays coming out daily from mid youtubers justifying to themselves that the game is good its just that the players (lack of) who are wrong.

Pic related is Saturday's peak, It was 24k last Sat btw. 3k to 4k drop per weak. Not even the major balance patch could save it.

There are also a lot of preemptive tears from the hardcore crowd because of the upcoming wipe. Fags are low key admitting that the game is shit and its not gonna be fun to do the grind all over again. Expect a massive exodus after the wipe.

The only hope for this game now is if Bungie makes this game f2p right around summer vacation time. That might bring some players. Can't say if they will stay for long though.

bungie is fucking dead and gone
every one worth a damn is gone
the halo series will never be unfucked

unironically the only person i know simping bungie is a tranny
i have no idea why they hold on, other then nostalgia
>>
>>737589079
why would i ever care about a twitter artist in the first place? if they were so good they shouldve made their own game.
>>

>i have no idea why they hold on, other then nostalgia
Sunk cost fallacy maybe?
When you've identified yourself as a Bungie fanboy for over a decade it's hard to jump ship
