It was over when they decided to end Destiny 2. I don't know what Sony expects anymore. Maybe MS and Sony are just waiting for AI to advance even further while they both just hoard IP's and get rid anyone that isn't needed to keep the lights running.
Sony despite chasing live service games, clearly has no interest in Destiny 3 which probably would have actually worked unlike every other attempt.

It cost $170 million and that doesn't include any of the advertising.
So even if you assume that they are getting 50% of the ticket sales which is absurdly unrealistic they would still need $340 million to break even the production costs, probably something like $450-500 million to actually break even considering everything.

They fucked up by not making a 3rd game but instead they artificially kept 2 on life support.

Marathon was going to be DoA because outside of cheating third worlders, no one cares about that genre outside of Tarkov.

Arc Raider got lucky because the community focused far more on the coop and PvE than PvP.

this shit is basically autogynephilic ASMR content. but you want to pretend it's normal? from here we can go two ways: you could be too innocent to see, or you could be on board with The Agenda TM and denying it for that reason. I can't read your mind so I can only stand my ground. it's a tranny game made by trannies for trannies, and it's plain to see for anyone actually looking.

Marilyn Manson used this kind of aesthetic for SHOCK VALUE. normal people used to be SHOCKED by this aesthetic. but you want to pretend it's normal means nothing.

1. everyone under age 40 knows what "ASMR" means.
2. if you want to argue about what is or isn't tranny you know what "autogynephilic" means.

it's obvious you're pretending not to understand. if you actually didn't know and you were arguing in good faith you would fucking google the term you don't understand and then you WOULD understand. but you don't do that because you're arguing in bad faith.

I'm not on twitter or BSKY or wherever this is posted, so I can't reply directly to her, but it's so US/Eurocentric to think that the entire video game industry is located on the west coast of North America.

The global video game industry is WAY bigger than just that and there are game studios from across the world that are making big, ambitious, appealing products for gamers. Not to mention the Western video game industry has basically spent the past decade deriding, demeaning, and dismissing their core audience. They wanted a new, modern, inclusive and diverse audience. Well, they got it.

Good luck to them in figuring out what the hell they did wrong (if they ever admitted to doing anything wrong), and finding their way back to gaining market share amongst the people who actually do play and spend money on video games. Because the only way to have secure and sustainable success in an entertainment industry is to have fans who will keep coming back to your products again and again and again.

And there's a lot of competition for those fans these days.

The western game industry has had a piss-poor attitude since the mid-00s, with the wrong people always being given a leg up, and this crash has been a long time in the making.

The fact that the bad actors are probably about to get a second wind from GTA6 and anyone who slaps them with the obvious truth that all of its success will be due to GTA5 will be chased out will just make the destruction more thorough. The collapse is going to hit Rockstar, Bethesda, etc. over the next decade too.

I could buy that argument for an anime waifu gacha game or a dudebro shooter. Or a dudebro anime waifu gacha shooter. Anything that has a semi-coherent target audience and a reasonable budget.

Making a game that needs to maintain a mainstream-level playerbase for a few years but has repulsive characters and a general ugly art direction isn't a gamble.

Marathon is Halo without any of the things that make Halo special: The vehicles (the first FPS to get this right), the beautiful world, the iconic weapons, and the story.

In terms of raw FPS gameplay, it wasn't even the best in 2001.

Gaming has to go back to be sustainable, this means lowering graphic ambitions, removing crap like Hollywood actors for mocap, smaller budget and obviously fire all those people hired from companies like SBI. Going back will clean gaming from normalfaggots because AAA wont be produced anymore with nowday standards, so devs will do smaller projects where they can experiment more without the fear of shutting down if it doesn't sell a lot

Until the CEOs, executives and all then senior management is fired, nothing will change. In layoffs, only the devs are fired, who never had any decision making power at all. Also the middle management which only enforce the wishes of their bosses.

CEO and execs only care about money not about gaming. That's why they keep pushing wokeshit everywhere instead of spending money on good gameplay because it costs $0 to their bottom line to push it everywhere which is why most woke games are pure slop (because the CEO and execs want to turn the game into a checklist of what makes money and wokeism is a tick box just like microtransactions). They also keep pushing AI because 99% of the company costs are salaries so by firing the workers and forcing the rest to man slop machines they can reduce the costs further.

Mind you if Bungie is still around to make another game. It won't come out for at least another 5 years and that's assuming there's no delays which rarely happens these days. I don't think Sony has the money to put up with that. Probably more layoffs will happen at Bungie to make the studio be around 200 to 300 so they can be better financeable for Sony.
>>

Crunch happens regardless, because modern game development may have a game in development for 4+ years, but only in the last 18 months does any actual work get done because finally the interminable meetings about accessibility and representation are done with. Seriously, that shit eats up and retards more progress on projects than anyone whose never been in that kind of corporate environment realizes, and once the consultants are done milking money and the retarded HR and pandering shit is done, the executives want the actual work done ASAP, and that means crunch.

Her perspective is probably that "chuds" (i.e., people she personally dislikes for various reasons) are in the minority; however to her they're able to poison online discussion to the point of sabotaging games before they're even released. Being an industry shill herself, she defaults to the belief that games only fail due to these few "chuds" starting a vicious cycle of bad word-of-mouth, and never to the games themselves being dogshit. Because of course, that would mean that the game devs she's cozying up to are dogshit -- and that can't possibly be true. Obviously.

This is only the beginning. When Sony purchased Bungie, $1.2 billion of the $3.6 billion were set aside as a "retention incentive" to keep employees staying at the company. Bungie employees who were with the company when the purchase happened will become eligible to have collected all that money in the Summer(June/July/August).

There is inevitably going to be a lot of employees who will leave the company after having collected that bonus money. In addition to that, Marathon is a now a sub-10k concurrent game and will not be able to sustain a Bungie with 400 employees. These numbers could maybe sustain 150-200 employees at most, assuming that they start selling more MTX.

>Tarkov is too "difficult"
marathon has no safe pocket, significantly smaller maps, MORE squads/players per map, fewer POIs, spawns that force pvp immediately at the fewer POIs, worse economy, more lethal AI

All of this and somehow you retards think tarkov is harder because it has gun and ammo autism. It's significantly more user friendly for progression and building wealth, and easily allows safer raids with the larger maps and ease of movement without combat. marathon is substantially more hardcore than even the HC tarkov reset which is the main driver behind its poor performance

I agree around the circumstance for a patch like this to be released.

When I mean "difficult" i mean "difficult to play". I judge a games difficulty to play by how long it takes me to properly assign my keybinds and figure out the games mechanics and it took me 50 minutes of playtime to get out of the first building you spawn in and figure out how to properly treat a broken leg wound. Maybe I just had a bad first experience but after I got shot ONCE if felt like I was already dead because my leg was broken after a single bullet and even after using painkillers and a med bag and a strap I could barely move, and I had to burn through all my resources just to keep my hydration and food up which I assume was only draining at an insane rate because I was hobbling on a broken leg.

Sure, Marathon doesn't have a safe pocket but it has direct to the bank credit uploads you can find and the shops give you a ton of free shit and free kits. Marathon is also far simpler when it comes to understanding objectives, controls, and what items do what.
>>
>>741956282
Yeah that's fair. I think something many overlook is that Tarkov evolved from Stalker and inherits the body part damage/healing mechanics which is where all that shit came from. But I do think there is minimal difference between addressing bleed/broken bone/healing on body parts vs health/shield/debuff family A/debuff family B in marathon. Marathon has a "smart" healing hotkey (with bad logic) that will do it for you but it's not a large knowledge gap to overcome between the 2 systems.

Mechanically Tarkov is a deeper game which most people will quickly attribute to difficulty. A similar number of systems are present in marathon, but in a much shallower capacity leading it to feeling "easier", but the core gameplay loop and progression is objectively harder unless you're looking for a pure pvp battle arena experience. As an extraction game with Tarkov as the gold standard, it falls short and doesn't even compete with Tarkov rip-offs like ABI or the systems that Gray Zone has been working with. It's both the most hardcore extraction experience and one of the more shallow ones at the same time, and it will never see general market acceptance because of it
>>
>>741956731
Don't get me entirely wrong I DO like alot of things from those 50 minutes I played of tarkov and I do always love when games like stalker (unfortunatly I only played stalker 2) get into the more "autistic" sim stuff like eating animations and "logical" mechanics like using a med kit to stop bleeding, using painkillers to well, stop pain for a moment, and using a splint to fix a broken leg. I could see myself getting into tarkov if I was a bit more intelligent and had more patience to learn all the mechanics but I'm kind of "bored" with the "realistic" art style and was drawn to marathon/arc raiders because they're both different universes than our own boring one. Maybe one day I'll give tarkov another shot. I really, REALLY liked when I went to use the water bottle in tarkov that my character actually took out the water bottle, unscrewed the cap, drank it, and then screwed the cap back on. Those little animations for "doing things" is moreso what I really liked.

basically I'm autistic enough to potentially like Tarkov but not paitent/smart enough to get over the initial learning curve. If I wasn't already playing other games and other extraction shooters then maybe. I'll own that L.

Literally the only reason why it hasn't been (and will never be) localized.
>>
>>741957605
Not an L man, getting into Tarkov is just another flavour of autism, you need to be really into milsim. I like the marathon worldbuilding/music/general aesthetic but just can't get into how pvp focused it is, forcing engagements immediately at every POI with how small the maps are and the number of teams they spawn. I know people are married to the hardcore aspect of the game currently but I do hope they ease off that a bit and make it a bit more relaxing
