>This is following the end of support for Destiny 2 and the current bad situation for Marathon>Bungie currently has 850+ devs and is located in Seattle
But I don’t understand, I’m having a blast?
>>741233812>troons across the entire industry are defending this game>still dead
Soooo does this mean marathon is slopping or..?
>>741233812>~400 people for MarathonYeah, that should be enough.
>>741233812Crashing western gamedev. WITH NO SURVIVORS!
>>741233812>[Great News]ftfy OP, you're welcome
>>741233812Marathonshillbros... our narrative isn't working...
I guess they shouldn't have made a bad game.
>>741233812And the management will face no consequences as per usual?
>>741233812>more than 41%Better than expected
>>741234452I do wish Ziegler got fired. Reworking the game for a 3v3 PvP focus was his idea.

>>741233812 Sony being fucked = happy news
>>741233812Huh? Marashills? Is our job safe right?
if any of the sony executives played halo reach they would not have advocated for the acquisition.
>>741233812Sony really is afraid of Bungie making another AAA game. They'll probably tell them to make more live service sloppa
>>741234737>AAA industry executives knowing anything about videogames in the first placeOh, sweet summer child.
>>741233812Shut the fuck up we are supposed to be shitting on xbox only
Does someone want to check if Vandalfag and the other Marasisters are alive
>>741233812Who cares. Bungie hasn't made a good game since Halo 3.
Good, just gut and kill all studios. Fire all those faggots and throw them into the street. They deserve worse but that's a start.
>>741233812I hope they blast their heads clean off
How to save Bungie, by Anon:>Split the remaining workforce into 3 teams:>First team is in charge of Marathon support.>Second team will develop an AA spiritual successor to Oni set in the nuMarathon universe. Cut costs by reusing existing Marathon assets.>Third team will work on a top-down co-op shooter set in the Destiny universe, modeled after Synthetik/Helldivers 1. Again, manage costs by resuing existing Destiny assets.Capitalize on existing IP by delivering products palatable to established consumer bases while keeping development costs in check. Focus on delivering modest successes to rebuild consumer goodwill towards Bungie while pivoting away from GaaS.
>>741233812>400 employees leftThat basically confirms Destiny 3 will never get made. Marathon support will probably end soon. The only path for this company is to make FPS singleplayer games since gunplay is their specialty. Pathways into Darkness Remake, Marathon Trilogy Remake or Destiny spinoffs. Their version of ID software I guess.
>>741235763They were already doing this for Marathon and their million incubation progress and it literally killed their company.
>>741233812Damn, first south of nignight studio shuts down, then stop killing games gets killed by the EU, and now soiny is getting reamed by the consequences of their actions.Woke sisters, things are NOT looking good for us.
>>741233812I presume the executives are securing their place in the bunkers. Shit's expensive, must be.Revelation 6:15-17KJVAnd the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; and said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?
>>741233812Should be 100%
when's the next bungie apology livestream I need a good laugh
>>741237036Vidya is not shy to announce the beast either.I find it so interesting that these popular video game franchises have all conveniently reached the number 6.>GTA>Far Cry>Elder Scrolls>DOOM>Battlefield>Persona>Halo>Street Fighter>Hitman>MGS>Armored Core>Super Smash Bros>Bloons TD>Serious Sam>Devil May Cry>Forza Horizon>Dead or AliveAll announcing the mark of the beast. Revelation 13:17-18 KJVAnd that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six. Honourable mention:>Resident Evil 9 (upside down 6)>Dying Light The Beast>Final Fantasy 16
>>741233812BUT MARATHON WAS A SUCCESS! HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN?>850+ devsBro how the fuck. What were they all doing all this time? Even at 425 devs that is a ridiculous amount.
>>741233812Blasthavers... we failed...
>>741234737what about reach makes it so divisive amongst bungie halo fans? is it just the inclusion of armor abilities?
>>741233812We Blastin'We Hookin'
>>741233812FIRST, A JOKEWHAT DO YOU GET WHEN YOU MIX SONY WITH A BUNGIE DEV?...MY ASS
Chuddies think it's the Marathon team getting laid off GEEEEEG
>>741233812THEY DIDN'T BLAST TOO GOOD
>>741234737trvke
not 100%? lame
>>741235763>top-down co-op shooter set in the Destiny universe, modeled after Synthetik/Helldivers 1.Basically throwing away money.People only care about Bungie for Destiny, so I'd shift all of them to pump out a Destiny spin-off in 2 years. Announce it this year to keep the hopium up with anyone that still cares about them. If they couldn't manage that then wtf is Sony paying them for?Things are grim at Bungie.
>>741240000And I never understood thisDestiny universe is kinda garbo and derivative. And the gameplay is a polished waterbank rock. Very polished, but still dull.
Not on our watch. Gentlefolk, it's time to take our stand. For Marathon. For Bungie. For Destiny. For crisp hoppy IPAs.
Oh no, what happened?Oh no, how terrible! That just awful, how terrible, oh no!
>>741233812but I didn't do anything
>>741233812b-but Marathon™ is doing so well!
>>741233812Let me guess, all the execs that caused this company to collapse will either stay or be promoted?
>bungieand nothing of value was lost
>>741235763>top downno one but basement dwelling autists that pirate games care about this shit
>>741240832Nothing happened. It's just the D2 team getting ditched because it's essentially an abandoned game now. Marathon, on the other hand, will be around for a good while.
>>741241412>Marathon, on the other hand, will be around for a good while.We'll see about that.
>>741237134Yo, I loved that Iron Maiden song
There's really no reason to keep more than 100 people around if all they're doing is Marathon maintenance. I don't know what Valve's CS team looks like, but it's got to be less than 100.
>>741241624Play At Madness is better
>>741241624Come again?
LET THE BODIES HIT THE FLOOR
>>741233812It's kind of crazy to me that people think there should be infinite, unending work for artists. All pieces of art come to a conclusion eventually. And when that happens, a new team has to be rebuilt for the next project. Even if you're using a GaaS model, you can'r realistically expect infinite growth forever. That's that cancerous mindset that causes so many problems in the world.
>>741233812
Bungie still exists? The fuck thought they shut down decades ago.
>>741233812This is literally trans erasure
Good. Let Sony bleed.
