>9.4k likes>1.3 million views haters and steamcharters on suicide watch. marathon is about to have a revival like few other games have ever experienced. I wouldn't be surprised if it sets a new all time user record when vault breaker drops.
>>743715751>wouldn't be surprised if it sets a new all time user record when vault breaker dropsNew record in likes and views?
Haters are already buckbroken enough already, but I doubt the 2 weeks long ltm will break 88k+
>Study bros...
>>743715751>>9.4k likes>>1.3 million viewsSo less than 1% of the people who saw it liked it.
>posting reddit imagesGo back
okay, what does any of that mean?
>>743715751>I wouldn't be surprised if it sets a new all time user record when vault breaker drops.haha yeah it might even break 100k...
>>743717271It means they'll have somewhere between 9k and 1 million players post-update
>>743715751Is twitter post views and likes the cope of the week?Last week (or was it week before) they were trying to convince each other that steam charts weren't accurate.
>>743715751>Revives by coming a completely different gameSo fortnite:save the world is a massive smash hit?
>>743715751>More likes than actual players.
>>743716825
>>743715751>1mil + views and less than 10k people likedI ain't seen a ratio that hard, since OP rolled out his mom and she got nope'd out of the trailer park.
Blast status?
>>743720467Certified.
>>743715751>UESC hordesI'm a turbo-unc who only played the original Marathon trilogy back in the 90s. Is the UESC actually a major presence in nuMarathon? The whole point of the original Marathon was that the UESC and Earth were left behind centuries ago and humans in general didn't have any agency at all in the game's story.
>>743715751I get that much engagement on a post with only 200k views, this must be one of those ad posts
>>743715751>has to cling to social media metrics that have an established history of not being a great forecaster of actual earnings (due to botting, non-customers and vocal minorities interacting, etc.)>numbers still aren't impressive given that this NEEDS to make half a billion dollars, and that would still be a disappointment compared to what Sony expected out of BungieLMAO
>>743715751I may actually try this now.
Omg, they added a whole new gameplay mode! Bungie is really going the extra mile giving us this! They are squeezing so much value into marathon I’m blown away. We already got FOUR MASSIVE levels to explore! I’d pay 70$ for this added value and they are delivering it FREE. Marathons success at creating a stable player base must have inspired them to gift us this mode, and they are so generous! They didn’t have to change anything. Their original vision was amazing, best extraction shooter concept ever with bungies unmatched gunplay. I can’t get enough of the lore, reading it for hours before I go to sleep and dream about marathon. I can’t waist for the blast I’m going to have! I gifted my wife’s boyfriend a copy of marathon and he’s absolutely HOOKED. In between breeding sessions with my wife we both been doing cryo runs as thief and he’s in a hurry to satisfy her and get back to tau ceti with me.
>>743723551Priceless.
>>743715751great, they are counting likes now
>>743718379Marathon cope long had the occasional weirdness about distrusting steam charts but it kicked into overdrive on the 10th of July when Artifact had a weird spike of players
>>743718379>>743715751How are twitter views and likes translating into sales?
>>743724932They're not. kek.
wait so no free week announcement? really?
>>743725165It's not already F2P? Because that's the archetype of game I'd expect to be f2p. Well, it's a paid game? In this economy, with this competition, in a saturated genre? How much is this thing being sold for?
>>743725671$24 and i think you can get it a little bit cheaper w/a stack able coupon
Now if only likes and views paid bills...
>>743725671F2P games rely on cosmetics and other in-game purchases like battle passes to stay afloat.Marathon's cosmetics are ugly and no one is going to invest money on a game with a future as uncertain as this one.
>>743729695Yeah you definetly don't play the gameIt's full of Arata Vector Recons, Astrologer Triage and Yokai Thieves
>>743725671I did the math back on launch, each maradaddy would have to spend like 75 to 90 thousand US dollars in micro transactions just for Sony to break even on the purchase of Bungie alone.Not the costs of development, marketing and release of marathon. Just for buying Bungie and break EVEN.
>>743715751did bungie build up all these schizo tier haters solely with content vaulting? it is astounding how many retards have been frothing at the mouth over this company
saw some anon in other thread say theyre adding pve because theyre gonna send this shit to eos and the pve is just so people can play it offline. i believe this is the only reason theyre adding pve
>melted my glad and defender to try reclaimer>i hate it>no buy back tokenlesson learned I hate giant shipscorsair seems to be as big as I can stomach it
>>743715751>july 21 - august 4Bungies isn't retarded enough to make it timed event right?
>>743715751>literal ratio >maratrooner celebratingkekekeke
God damn Marachads keep on winning. We can't stop winning, I'm getting tired of winning now haha.
We're gonna to REVIVE this game so fucking hard!!!
now that we won, whats the next flop
>>743735118hunter horizons gathering
>roguelite>>743719193lmao
>new content already has an expiration dateNot much point in buying the game and getting invested if you're just going to take away the thing that's supposedly good enough to make it worth buying.
Sony wins bigly, again!
>game is back we got pve content>it's limited time because bungie isn't even sure anyone will care
>>743734094>peepeed my poopoo>no cum tokenwhat did he mean by this?
>>743735248The funny thing is if the game had just had a normal pve mode in it from the start and they weren't so weird about obsessively putting expiration dates on their content, I probably would have played the game. I have some friends who I play co-op stuff with and they'd probably be up to give it a go. They've poisoned the well though, bungie's obsession with normalizing the removal of content makes their games utterly unappealing to me.
>>743715751Just like those 400k people in the discord or the like, what was it... 10 million or more views on stupid robot twitter video? Twitter videos don't matter anon. According to jewtube it cant even break 100k in 24 hours. It's struggling to even get the people who even played at launch to be interested, let alone new players to trick into their gay extraction slop.
>>743715751>I wouldn't be surprised if it sets a new all time user recordYou faggots said the same thing when it went F2P for two weeks and its doing worse than ever right now
>>743735438It's not that, it's to induce a sense of urgency to play/fomo. It's pretty predatory and something they did often with d2Destiny 2 had iron banner for example which was basically pvp with amped up rewards and exclusive weapons, and of course limited time
>>743715751uh oh
The PvE will save the game, trust!
>>743737978Hundred of millions of dollars to emulate a fraction of Duckov's strength. Sad!
>>743715751This game is going worse then Anthem I wonder if it last as long as Anthem.
>>743729695And yet the game relseased with a day one terrible battle pass that was considered to be a bigger scam than anything fortnite or apex ever did
>>743725165They already had a free week, aren't games limited to once a year? Or is Steam going to bend over backwards for Sony
>>743715751>PvE mode introduced>takes it away from you after a few weeksOverwatch pulled the same shit. Huge surge in players during the event, everyone was having fun with it, lore was even expanded a bit, etc then poof it's gone and only the tryhard smurf accounts remain to torture anyone trying to play
>>743721195The lore is that UESC sent another ship to Marathon after they lost contact with it, suspecting revolt. They retconned Leela's message taking 97 light years to arrive down to 20 IIRC, and the ship took another 100 years to arrive.
>>743731337Well its a bungie game I wouldnt expect any less from noggas buying skinsJust wait till they add more stuff that makes your character only white or black because people who play bungie games have no sense of fashion
