overdesigned slop characters and a lackluster artstyle, not to mention the game is dead

is basically nonexistent apart from some extremely niche fetish circles
seriously, who is this game for? no cute girls, so not for coomers, the gameplay is trash, there's no meaningful story, it's not og marathon so it's not for og fans, etc etc
this product is like a self-flagellation equivalent of vidya

While it has a lot of potential, it is in the hands of the most incapable people. They could not even launch a refresh season without fucking it up. And that is despite them admiting they fucking tanked and flopped the game and tunnel-vision-focus on PvP is what is killing it. And i will not even bother mentioning cheaters, because that issue is so pervasive and persistent in Marathon that the only way to deal with it would be to simply make the game PvE-only - thank you Destiny 2 and Tiger engine for already having cheats that with only minor fixes work out of the box on Morathon, and BattlEye for being an erectile dysfunction equivalent when it comes to anti-cheat software.

>no cute girls
You have Vandal, Thief, Recon. And Bishop is coming in December.
>not for coomers
Yup, those designs are not lust-inducing.
>the gameplay is trash
Yes and no. Gunplay is shit due to bullet magnetism and aim assist/aim bot. Other than that it is actually nice - not great, but good enough to get some enjoyment overall.
>there's no meaningful story
There is. You have Priority Contracts from 4 factions, and two of them get you to actually investigate what the fuck happened to the colony. The best one is ofcourse NuCaloric line, followed by MIDA, followed by Traxus. And then there are so many valuables to collect and unlock Codex entries to learn even more.
>it's not og marathon
No. Its not. Its the 4rth Marathon game, with events that take place after first three games.
