>>747713516Go F2PBut that only prolongs the death
>>747713609this. bring in the browns
>>747713516I don't know what's more pathetic, the people playing marathon or people obsessed with this shit
>>747713583And what a slow and beautiful crash it has been.All the marathon dads coping was hilarious at times. The dips always made me cum. The next few weeks will be glorious
>>747713516AIIIEEEEEEEEEE NANDATE SONY-SAN THE PLAYERBASE STILL ISN'T IN THE DOUBLE DIGITS WTF WTF WTFFFFFFFFF WOLVERINE HELP ME AHHHHHHHH
>>747713516What's wrong with you? Stop looking at steam charts. You have a weird mental disorder.
>>747713670The first step is admitting you have a problem
>>747713516>>747713679There is something deeply wrong with you
>>747713695>i am having fun looking at this>noooo stop you are ill
>>747713516Thr game isn't even in the most searched list on SteamDB anymore, even the haters stopped caring about itLet it die nigga
>>747713516>sub-1000AHHHHHHAHHHHHHHHHHHHHAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Wait... I think we're seeing a comeback!
>>747713737The Bungie death watch is still going strong
Based steam charts chadBlast havers in the thread already BTFO
>>747713726NO NO NOOOOOO YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND I NEED TO LAUGH AT BLASTHAVERS WHO ARE IN THE QUADRUPLE DIGITS THIS GAME COST MILLIONS AND STILL ISN'T IN THE DOUBLE DIGITS I NEED TO LAUGH AT SOMETHING YOU WOULDN'T GET IT DLSS5 SAVE MEEEEEEEE
>>747713734>nooo but I was having fun
an extraction shooter, what the fuck were they thinking
and last year people would get really mad if you said they should have made a juggernaut of a single player title with fun multiplayer as an aside
>>747713516>Stable at 3k is good enough
>>747713516dc i already had my blast tho chud
>>747713516Something is wrong with you. Why hate a game? Just ignore it if you don't like it.
Its a Marathon™ not a sprint. We have a long haul ahead of us but we will return to form and have a bast.
>>747713982They decided to jump with a much shorter bungie cord in case they changed their minds partway through the plummet
>only twice the amount as this fucker
>>747713982You didn't buy Doom The Dark Ages
>>747713516It flattens out at a stable 2,500 players, that's pretty good!
>>747713670Imagine all the time you could have been spent playing video games. Instead, you'd rather watch yet another AAA flop.I can't imagine even thinking about things I don't like of my own volition.
>>747713516bungie's downfall is well deservedit's a shameful waste that it took so longbut the horrid ghouls they have for executives will just fail upward unfortunately
Are you blasting, son
>>747713651Playing marathon take hoursLooking up steamdb take 5 seconds
ban steam chart thread troonies should be beheaded because they post twitter screencaps of literal whos all the time
whatever happened to sony's "experiment" of posting their own charts?
My dad was a kwabologist before he retired and he says he's never seen anything like this in the history of kwab. he took off his readers, looked me dead in the eyes, his face pale. with a concerned tone, he said "this is more than a kwab". I felt my heart fall into my gut knowing he was almost certainly right. He rolled his office chair over to his bookshelf, flipped open a textbook. I saw him trace his fingers over the page. he looked over the scaled classifications (he mentioned it was logarithmic). he said quietly to himself "lmao... kwab...kwaboty...kwabotc...marathon... bungie...", then he ended in silence. All he said after several tense moments "I've never kek'd what a bitch more in my entire life".
>>747714584chinese farming bot game
>>747713516The marathon hater phenomenon is so funny to me. I'm sure some of it is jilted destiny2 players wanting to punish bungie at all costs. But I wonder how many people just see it as a rare chance to dogpile a corporation that's eating shit.Like you know how well these gaming 'boycotts' tend to go, there's usually enough casuals or cattle buying stuff anyway to cancel it out. Outside of like, gacha game players having gigantic meltdowns, it's pretty rare for the consumer side to win and impose actual consequences on the company.
>>747713624>>747713609Bungo did this with Destiny 2. It almost died before they went free to play.Vulva's whole business model relies on f2p and gambling. Do you think CS2's constant 800,000 players are humans? They are bot farms grinding on weekly loot boxes.
>>747715743what exactly is funny to you
>>747713609If a game you purchased suddenly goes free to play do you get a refund?
>>747715743idk how anyone can still lick bungie's boots in 2026they're about on par with blizzard with how exploitative they are with their employees and players
>>747715991no. money stolen
>>747715991You get to have a blast ahead of others stop demanding
>>747713583>You have been looking at those numbers for 6 monthsso have sony executives LOL
>>747715991no one got a refund when team fortress 2 went free to play
>>747713516It's not a flop
>>747717228then what is it
>Sony cancelled Physint for thisBillions down the drain holy kek
>not going to break daily 3000 by the end of the monthThe end is near. They don't even have 1000 after California time zone.
>>747713583>implying it's just one guy>>747713609It wont help. Look at the F2P week they did, the playercount bumped upward for only a couple days and was practically back to normal halfway through it.>>747713516Makes sense to me.>revive a dead franchise only to completely change everything about it minus some aspects of the setting, meaning the OG fans wont care>player characters are super divisive and mostly look like shit, meaning the Cawadoody and Halo players wont care, and the whales wont care either>skins and such don't really improve how shit/divisive the character designs are, discouraging whales from caring>PVP-only extraction shooter, when everyone that likes extraction shooters is already playing one, and it's not a newbie-friendly genre because you have to git gud or get ganked and lose an hour+ of progress>also because it's a PVP-only extraction shooter, free weekends and F2P tests die quickly because anyone curious about the game will just get ganked ASAP as the few remaining players continually raise the skill floorIt's just fucked all around. Most of the only ways to save it are to not -be- it.>replace all the characters with tacticool sci-fi humans>replace all the characters with people in not-Spartan armor>gut out all that plastic corpo shit the game went with and lean on grit-and-metal like the OG Marathon games>completely remove PVP and hard switch to co-op PVE with optional PVP modes>create an entire singleplayer/co-op campaign with a story and cutscenes>delete Marathon entirely and divert all funds and assets into making a Destiny remake or a ton of content for Destiny 2>actually fucking advertise that they ported the OGs to Steam since fuckin' nobody noticed
>>747717247It's being studied.
We'll soon be able to have Marathon threads with more posts than players.Exciting times.
TWO PLAYERS FOR EVERY ONE EMPLOYEE
My friend said its more fun than Halo, which he hates
>>747713516At this point they're just keeping it alive to avoid refunding people. They know there's no way to turn it around
>>747717832It's not but Destiny was more fun than Halo
>>747714993But enough about marathon
>>747717379The last 24 hour peak was 2353. We're about to see sub-2K peaks really soon.
>>747714408I don't think 2 extra minutes of gaming would change much
>>747717205TF2 went f2p 5 years after launch retard
>>747713516Don't call it a comeback :(
>>747713516There are FiveM GTA 5 servers with bigger player bases than this entire fucking game. Probably more profitable as well. Truly grim. RIP in piss Bungie.
