Martonsissies Tassi is starting to disbelieve..
Oh what a glorious sound they make.
I have no frame of reference of D1 but the current vibe is reminding me exactly when I was so fucking confused why D2 launched like shit, wondering why my friends who played D1 were super let down , the copcels “erm they put prestige Levi back” when Bungie were rat fucks and paywalled it behind CoO, and other deflects excusing Bungie’s incompetence. Honestly it’s probably a worse feeling now because you got an ecosystem of Destiny content slobs getting cold sweats about the thought of filling a job application and they got their parasocial hug box of simps under direction to say how much of a heckin blast Marathon is
I love destiny for the real human-robot sexual connections you can form
mup da doo didda po mo gub bidda be dat tum muhfugen bix nood cof bin dub ho muhfugga
STOP DODGING MY RECON SPIDER AND DIE TO IT
>*seasons my food with salt*Truly the refined culture. Now I will continue to have a blast playing Marathon
>>559042806Try using more than salt. Or are you too poor you can't even afford curry powder for your cow dung pie?
paneer status, saar?
The maraflop Bots are here because I included marathon in the op
>>559042806But was it worth every penny?
Nine years ago, Bungie had you. The DOOM left you, told you Bungie had won. But you disagreed. And now here you are. Your rape of Bungie made you my favourite general. So I built you a hall. A monument to your rape of Bungie. You'll have to fill it yourself, of course. But I know how you like to DOOM. Doesn't matter who you have to rape. [laughs]
>>559043737I will grow fat with rape.
>Free>Couldn't even break 70k todayKek
>>559044569r/marathon is just >"Bungie this game is perfect as it is, please don't listen to anyone and make any changes!!"
destiny 2 has had its worst month for player numbers on steam
>>559044798>It's fine to be a niche game>You don't need mainstream appeal if you only need 5-7 million sales to break even
>>559044950It managed to hit the first sub 200k daily activity users for the first time ever on the 24th
>>559045304website?
>>559044950>>559045304Still too high. Wtf are people even doing?
>>559045601https://popularity.report/Tracks unique users that have launched at least 1 activity on a cumulative daily total. Logging in and not launching an activity doesn't add to the total so it may actually be a higher number than shown. This is through Bungie's API
>>559045304Trying to use this information to extrapolate the absolute best scenario for Marathon launch is like 2 million sales, maybe, and they need like 5x that minimum to be a financial success according to the "top 5 seller of 2025" thing.
You don't get it CHUDS, when the game releases 25 million GAMERS in the middle east will show up and save Bungo.
>>559046036How many rials does it cost?
>>5590445693.6 billion for a new game with a potential of 40-60k average active daily players and Destiny 2, a dying game with less players than Helldivers 2. Surely this wasn't worth the money and bungie will be shut down by sony in less than a year
>>559046036Trump is sending in american troops to defend the israeli developers making Destiny 3https://files.catbox.moe/t6at5l.mp4
none of this would have happened if they let me use the javelin still
>>559046730For Bungie's insolence on removing the javelin they have been raped.
>>559047231an excellent decision
I hope Slay the Spire 2 in early access gets more players than Marathon, that would be funny.
>>559046207About 52572600 geg
>>559047385>sequel to universally beloved roguelike deckbuilder considered the definitive entry in the genreThey'd have to fuck up HARD to fail to do worse
>>559047553Darkest Dungeon managed it despite being so influential.
>>559047738Remind yourself that overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer.
>>559047936>Remind yourself that overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer.Bungie is the perfect example of this
>>559047936>Remind yourself that overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer.But enough about Bungie!
>Loses his job in JulyI'm going to miss him

>>559047738>>559047936>>559047981>>559048098I love darkest dungeon>dg if they were a DD enemy
So are there really no big pve multiplayer games with engaging moment-to-moment gameplay? Everything seems to be pvp streamer bait or a slow mmo auto-player.
>>559052070sorry anon, it must be live service pvp slop only.
>>559050582is that sami zayn
>>559052070PoE has a new season coming out on Friday.
>>559052070There's Arc and Helldivers (both have more players than Marathon btw while costing $40)
>>559052070not really any new ones, unfortunately
>>559050527I won't
>>559052235Honestly how do people still play that game
>Do this objective Runner>Get killed by some zoomer that just showed up in the area Bungie seriously killed Destiny for this? This is the equivalent of getting killed by some bitch invader using Truth in Gambit.
>>559053849At least they also killed themselves for it, they just don't realize it yet.
>>559044569What the hell is a server slam?
>>559053945You're supposed to rape the servers by playing it. "Stress Test" wasn't sexy enough for marketing.
>>559053945faggy way of saying stress test, I guess?
DMG definitely was responsible for the name "Server Slam"
>>559054240He wanted Server Jam, Arc Raiders invented Server Slam
>Marathon lets you team up with other people and share loot dropsIts going to be interesting when instead of selling carries like Destiny people sell items in Marathon for real money. If Bungie implements a safe pocket feature it would basically cement selling items for real money in the game.
>>559053945It's just an open beta but given memetic phrasing and an implied purpose when it's obviously just a form of advertising this close to launch. *** ******* did it first, Bungie copied them.
>>559054540most extraction games end up having some sort of player market involved, so real money stuff ends up being inevitable. either way though, as long as players can drop an item and someone else can grab it, someone will try exchanging money at some point
>>559054540>share loot drops>he doesn't knowThe other people on your team are just there for security. You revive them when they go down to ensure your own security. You are competing with them for the same drops, even if you have the exact same bounty active.
>>559054045>>559054067This dumbfuck company has been making online games for over a decade how the fuck do they still need to stress test?
>>559054863>he hasn't been around for any Destiny expansion dropslol. I think it's actually a bad omen that Marathon didn't even reach 1/2 the concurrent of an expansion drop and didn't have the usual widespread server issues either.
i've been busy the last couple of days. any doombros wanna give a qrd on the status of marathon? are we winning?
>>559055018More than you could possibly believe. Launch day will be a feast.
>sony paid BILLIONS for bungie
>>559054827By sharing loot drops I mean that you can drop items on the floor for your teammates to pickup. So if some cheater got a gold auto rifle and wanted to sell it they would team up with the person buying then drop it for them to pickup and then you extract. Safe pocket feature would make that easier to do since there would be zero risk of losing it.>>559054756I think its going to force Bungie's hand into making a ingame market because Marathon is still being like Destiny where the only economy is between you and the game. Marathon has expanded that to other players but without an auction house of any kind since for buying/selling its still entirely between you and the game. Wouldn't surprise me if Bungie is going to start flailing after release and having to patch a bunch of holes in the leaking ship as more popup.
>>559055293>So if some cheater got a gold auto rifle and wanted to sell it they would team up with the person buying then drop it for them to pickup and then you extract.Oh yeah that. Keep in mind there is also a limit to how often a weapon can be looted before it gets turned into credits. had this happen to a fucking shield I needed too
>>559055280>Sony paid $1.1B more for Bungie than Microsoft did for Mojang/Minecraft
>>559055018Low player counts for when it's F R E E it's not looking good for maraflop
>>559055384>Keep in mind there is also a limit to how often a weapon can be looted before it gets turned into credits.Really? That is incredibly retarded. So you can loot an item and it instantly turns into credits if its been looted too many times?
>>559055018Doombros eating good. Tassi already tying the white flag to the flagpole in preparation. Bungie absolutely refusing to budge on anything that would improve the game and likely holding to their creative vision that the game is meant to be abysmal dogshit until you get to the endgame gear, which can subsequently be taken from you in seconds and set you back 20 hours of grinding gear.
>>559055018After an ungodly long period of time, Marathon finally made it to the number 4 best selling Steam game globally. But that's not really the whole story, because it's currently the 27th best selling game on PS5, meanwhile I can't find the numbers at all for Xbox. It can at least say it outperformed Concord on release, even though I'm not confident it'll do well long term in its current state.Personally I'm more of the mindset that people are only buying it because they want to keep Bungie alive, alive enough so they can either get funding for a Destiny 3 or so they can make more Marathon projects besides this extraction shooter. Because I like the setting and the CG trailers created for the game, but the actual game itself just not remotely fun to play. It's like a terrible mix of Tarkov and APEX, its frankly shocking that this is the game that Bungie was planning on shipping last September.
>>559055528You just need to play more chuddie and then... YOU'LL LOVE IT!
>>559055726>Losing to High on Life 2, 3 weeks after launch
>>559055849>Monitor light bar retard with a superstrike and Skarrow streamingAdds up
>>559044569Damn, my 69,420 prediction was THIS close to true...
>>559055672Yeah. Press "v" to inspect something there is a thing in the top right that shows the amount of times something can be looted. I think it's 4 times, and then the 5th it gets liquidated into credits.Btw those "gold" or yellow guns aren't actually gold/yellow/piss. Every weapon is white. The weapon attachments decide the rarity of the gun on some sort of averages basis.
>>559056004kek I forgot about that, you were right on the money basically
>>559055849>sitting on the main menu and not even playing the game>watching a streamer instead with discord up
>>559055849Sorry I don't spend money monies on extraction shooters I learned my lesson with hunt
>>559056164It's like the fags that post the title screens of pokemon games
>>559053945Come on and jam
>>559044798they do this with every future flop, same with the canary in the coal mine memes(quit having fun etc...) I don't think this shit they do has ever been anything other than negative to the games they think they are saving
>>559055018bungie shutdown before the end of the year
The only thing (des)Tiny... was the revenue...
>>559059518how much did that game cost?
We need Marathon to succeed, Paul needs this job.
>>559060065think of our xister datto
Marathon will fail, Paul will be raped!
I LOOOOOOVVVVEEEEE MARAFLOP
>>559061671It's really a blast and return to form. The more you play the outside of the refund window, the better it gets!
wow look how quirky dmg's personal life is. these people need to leave the industry
>>559061958I fucking love science and getting vaccinated
>>559061958Sounds more fun than actually playing marathon lmao
>>559061958What does he even do anymore
>>559062201Jam and dig
Maraflop is about to break it's all-time low
Post YFW marathon is only 4 days from launching!
Is half of /dg/ just going back and forth between here and /mg/ shit posting

>>559063584You are reposting this from a shitty /v/ bait thread and this is days old with the sponsorship running.
>>559047385>shills saying it's fun if you treat it like a roguelite>releases the same day as the sequal to a beloved actual roguelite
Can someone give me the quick rundown on what's wrong with Destiny? I haven't played since the final shape dropped.
>>559066580Sunsetting 2.0 and MORE
This is the destiny general. Why is everyone posting about marathon here? Did having the words marathon in the OP just cause roaming bots to spam this thread?
>>559067646There's nothing to talk about with destiny you can have a dead general or a marathon hater central
>>559066259Might as well play pubg then
>>559067646What the fuck is there to talk about but marathon? The new update has been delayed for months and the game has gone to shit all because of bungies incompetence and that. Besides we haven't been an actual destiny general for quite awhile now. This is the doomgod general and destiny is just used as a front for us to continue posting on /vg/
>>559066259>>559068128>just play the extraction game like a battle royale Says a lot about the genre
>>559070003Extraction games are literally just battle royales except gear on the map is dubious and you have to risk bringing your own gear.
>>559063669Proof?
Are we ready to work for NuCaloric?
>>559070216BR ends when one player comes out on top. An extraction game could theoretically end with zero people getting killed. I think it says a lot that people either don't want to engage with the outside loot system at all or play a game like Arc where 80% of the playerbase is helping each other out with pve.
>>559070276It's 2 or 3 days old. A lone few shills are latching onto it now after the fact because they are desperate for anything to fight back with.qrd on the vid is that he's just raging at people in chat spamming that the game is bad because he's obligated to play it and telling him to go back to Arc which is what he's known for and made him popular. So he has a little moment of parroting the "stop hating games before they come out" and "you hate it because you haven't played it" and making things up about people hating Arc before it came out.
>>559070873Obviously there are loads of outright shills defending it, but the other half of it seems to be people genuinely ignorant to what Bungie has become since they dropped Halo. Like the last 10 years of Destiny and its bullshit are plain to see, it's not hidden. Everything they've done to fuck this game over is well documented, and it will obviously happen again with Marathon
>>559070873>The anti-dooming was entirely performativeWe're so back
uh, the game is now at the highest is has ever been on the sales chart. i don't get it
>>559071383The /v/ thread was trying to claim it was "forced hate" and the second post was doing the "Embark (arc devs) paid people to anti-shill their competition!" which runs directly counterpoint to people claiming that it's a different game for a different audience.>>559071464It's just a vague indicator and some people can't be helped but buy newest slop. I know there is a small but notable amount of people that were pretending to hold out until they decided whether or not they were going to buy the game and those are the people maintaining 50k ccu overnight in NA time zones. A spike like that needs to be sustained over a long period otherwise those 50k people buying the game will skyrocket the "Top Seller" listing that only tracks over a certain time period.
>>559071853That's just pure astroturfing, the shills are genuinely shameless these days and their fake narrative is just pathetic to see, even some posters who I thought were shills (who usually dumped art) were shitting on the game the other day and on the general.
just boughterened the game
>>559073763For that you will be raped.
maragoy bibsters what went wrong...
>me with my Truth
>>559075212The shills are in overdrive yelling about the beta ending soon and progress doesn't carry over so of course nobody is playing. This is obviously disregarding that this doesn't happen to other games and didn't happen to their direct competition Arc. They still seethe about arc too btw it's really odd.
Never forget titan bros
A..atleast we got presales! Who needs the Friday - Saturday - Sunday bump!
>>559079614a.. actually....the numbers are pretty good!
>>559079614They'll definitely buy the battle pass, skins, and $40 2027 expansion, right?
>>559079174I hope that dude never gets a game dev job again
>>559079968He's been working on Marathon for 3 years. The titan hero that has an air dodge is one of his.
>>559079174Rape him extra hard.
>>559079614Aw look he's doing the thing where he filters it down to just USA to make the game look better.>>559079730Yeah people didn't care about losing everything. People either played to burn their gear for lulz or just playing to squeeze playtime out of a game while it was free with no intention to actually buy it (me).
It HAS to be good because I like BungieIt HAS to be good because I like DestinyIt HAS to be successful because I like BungieIt HAS to be successful because I like DestinyI WILL ignore obvious problems because I like BungieI WILL ignore obvious problems because I like DestinyI WILL deflect criticism and belittle criticisers because I like BungieI WILL deflect criticism and belittle criticisers because I like DestinyY'ALL need to be better because Bungie rulesY'ALL need to be better because Destiny rules
i'm so fucking glad bungie is about to be rewarded for remarketing and reselling a minigame they tested in a season a year agoi'm so glad little goycattle streamers will sit there and gobble up shit with a smile because of a check. streaming is such a wonderful thing, it really makes video gaming so much better.its such a wonderful word we live in
>>559081740I don't think they can call it being rewarded when they'd be lucky to make back 1/2 the budget before switching to F2P out of desperation to avoid Sony currently lining up the guillotine and pulling at their leash.
>>559081524>two "y'all"srapeanon, go wild with this one, not holding back.
Tassi sees this and thinks "I'm seeing a lot positives here"
>>559083498tbf, it is the very final hours of the beta and people are either sleeping/waging or going to sleep right now.
>>559066259Yeah no thanks ill just play a fun game like nightreign instead>rapes you
>>559083604Talk to me about 60% of people from the peak leaving after a couple of days
>>559044798You just know these fuckers all bought Anthem.
>>559083498Do you think Paul Tassi is at least aware that he is a very stupid man?
>>559055849/dg/ your thoughts on this monitor configuration? Right now I have both in landscape so I can see it limiting the flexibility of the side monitor but I don't know if the one from this pic is a tranny configuration
>>559084798taking things so seriously is absolutely a tranny configuration. its a computer. it exists to do whatever the fuck you tell it to. treating it like its the greatest, most aesthetic thing in the world is embarrassing and very, very homosexual.
You really only need 2 monitors so you can play vidya on one and watch documentaries on the other
>>559083732That is the number you should be looking at, not at the one at the closing hours, they have already demonstraded that the game has no lasting power, makes me wonder why they even did a beta this close to release
>>559083637Should have called him Heolstor the dilatator
>23k at 9amyeah its over. the full release will probably peak at 30k after 24h. even destiny at its lowest wasn't this bad bungie is so dead
>>559084962but what will anonymous people on a chinese basket weaving forum that will never see, let alone care about me think about my monitors?
>>559084798I have a 3-monitor layout:>main monitor is a 32inch curved 4k OLED>left side monitor is landscape 27inch 2k monitor for watching anime/vtubers/forsen>right side monitor is a portrait 27inch 2k monitor split in middle for discord at the top when I'm grinding with clan, 4chan at bottom for /dg/, /mg/, /owg/, and /lisg/
>>559085470faggot
>>559085386they think its homosexual because you can't just let things be things
>>559085486prove it
>>559085575Who is your favourite Star Periphery character?

>>559086465>Jamming to Marathon until 4 AM on a "work"day
>>559086465
>>559086465hopefully to never wakes up
So how long after launch do you think the layoffs and shutdown start happening after they see the audience isn't there?
>>55908373260% leaving means the current 40% is now 100% which means 160% on launch, cry more haters!
Maybe they shouldn’t have killed their game with a lack of new content at all.Really underdelivered to the point no one cares anymore. Will not be missed
>>559087059Sony will wait until at least the beginning of April. The CFO assured shareholders that the game would be a success, so they need to pretend that it is until the next one is over.
>>559085335Or zanzibart the raped
>>559087059Heres the timeline:>Launches and we all hatewatch as it enters at like 70k on steam and dips over two weeks>Bungie says they hear, you are seen, and theres big fixes coming that for some reason never occured in the three years of development.>Aztecross starts playing the bbw warframe update and completely outperforms all the destiny streamers trying to make marton happen, tractor slut joins him and they learn the true power of the dark side>A month in the normies all left and like Anthem the writing is on the wall but nobody is talking about it but Tassi>3 months from today it leaks that Bungie has cut studio staff by 50% to cut costs and we only find out because the fired devs immediately ran to Jason Schrier>By this point Sony has a skeleton crew push out Age of Triumph 2 for destiny at the exact same time Bungie dissolves>By July Bungie is nothing but a memory, Marathon and Destiny still exist but the only updates are cash shop skins>Sony announces a new studio made up of people behind Fairgamedollarsign, concord, highguard and one guy who worked on helldivers 2 for a week who is the studio head to "begin the next great era of Destiny">What about Marathon? asks the 2300 people left playing Marathon.>What about it? replys Sony.
>>559087059I think it will be in the summer, late July or early August. That's how it worked out with the 2024 layoffs, it was a week before the Sony Q1 earnings call.
>>559087563Actually like the other anon said, it could be much earlier like April. But the June delay for Destiny has me thinking they know something will happen before then and that's why they're afraid to commit to anything now.
>>559087563I know the whole Bungie working on stuff quite a bit of ways in advance but do you think the course was set as much for Year of Prophecy even before the massive drop off of TFS’s year in such record time happened? The physical lack of shit in current year Destiny does feel like a major executive decision of that impact but I also get Destiny was already cruising in maintenance mode when Episodes came, held 0 distinction from a regular season and Bungie got away with less season+ raid/dungeon obligation for the year
>>559087764Actually the june date is a Sony thing. Its when the fiscal quarter ends and they confirmed to shareholders ash and iron was coming in that fiscal quarter. If it doesn't they risk legal action from shareholders who can claim the promised, did not deliver and knowingly damaged the share value. They need ash and iron by that point the fiscal quarter ends and so it WILL release then, no matter what state it is in. Because they know Destiny 2 is finished but not shitting out one final update even if its dogshit effects them and their money and they can't have that.
>>559087453I am curious what is even the staff situation like at Bungie with either game, because there’s already been tons of people laid off both games, if Marton is the supposedly more self sufficient smaller load game to deal with, I feel like numbers gotta be really tiny . Either way the largest tell in all of this was how Bungie explicitly said how the name of the freebie update would be changed which like obviously that shit has shown to mean Jack squat when Ash and Iron had like zero lore to it and it obviously could be anything
I thought Marathon was pretty inoffensive but questionable this was the big game they had to show for that went for tons of revisions and the like, the greed to push heroes to push cash shop skins is annoying when I think you could get infinitely more people interested in a your guys situation even if it’s first person. Biggest thing that brings my piss to a boil are the dumbasses defending the ttk even with factoring armor shielding and then waving around Tarkov and Hunt and how “you should be rewarded for tactical play with low ttk and getting jump on somebody” and completely downplay that the game has free as fuck aim assist and no bullet velocity , you shoot in more or less a straight line
>>559088516its pretty clearly age of triumph 2. they are bringing everything up to the same power level and doing a pantheon, its a one last hurrah like after rise of iron. Destiny as an ip may continue but Destiny 2 is finally dying and it should have happened years ago.
>datto posted that Marathon ad on his twitter earlier this month when bungie announced the server slam>said he'd be on it on the 28th>the server slam is over and he never streamed it at alllol, lmao.
>>559089704Hes busy getting his bottom surgery and the start of his skin dying on his journey to become a korean woman. I am not joking.
>>559089760>Hes busy getting his bottom surgeryThis but unironically
>>559089704he literally streamed it though
The fact that the Marathon is nowhere close to top 3 in Steam sellers, while it's that close to its release and just had free server slam for days, means it's so fucking over for them. It's really not hard for successful and well anticipated games to occupy that spot, especially for a day.But it's even struggling to get over some crusty ass games.For a huge company like Bungie, that is also metrics given, it's an absolutely terrible showing. We are actively witnessing the actual public and humiliating death of the legend.
>>559087939>but do you think the course was set as much for Year of Prophecy even before the massive drop off of TFS’s year in such record time happened?I think so but they probably thought they could get away with it, and obviously wanted to shift the reason to come back every week was to grind for power. If you think back too, Renegades was going to reset our power again and the climb for levels was fucking brutal. That was their plan for not having any content but wanting to keep players engaged. Tyson commented on Year of Prophecy like before Renegades and said something like "we didn't expect this much of a dropoff in player count".
oh no no no no...
>>559091370I think your algo is fucked anon, maybe stop watching so much marathon slop
>>559090350Reminder Dragon Age Veilguard hit number 1 with ease and killed Bioware. Bungie is cooked.

>>559091614oh yeah then it's more marathon, seems kind of obvious given that no one would actively be making destiny videos when the game is abandoned so not sure what your expecting.
Feels good to know that bungie is next on the chopping block for sony
>>559091831I will only purchase Marathon if every bungie dev and exec was flogged on live stream and publicly apologized to the D2 community for the past abuse.
Joe Zeigler seppuku when?
>>559092370Soon
>>559091512Bioware was also based in Leafland where the Canadian dollar is far cheaper too and apparently they only needed 3 million players to be considered a success. Bungie on the other hand is already on the hook for a $204 million USD impairment cost from D2 last year for failing to meet expectations, and that's on top of how much it costed to make Marathon post September delay. To say that Bungie is between a rock and a hard place is putting it lightly.
>>559095792I'm really hyped for the next season of Bungie's suffering.
>>559090350It's top 3 in the US (the only market that matters) and top 5 globally a few hours ago.
>>559097031veilguard was number 1 by a country mile, this is catastrophic bro.
>>559097031The few twitches before death. Keep going, it'll make you tighter for March 5th.
>>559097031>I-it was in the top sellers!It matters not. Bungie will still not sell enough to break even and will be raped and so will you. I'm nothing if not benevolent however, so I offer you the choice to join the DOOMGODS or BE R A P E D.
>>559095792You're also not taking into account that Bioware had a shit ton of backlog with EA that would've still been generated sales. Slow, but would've still generated cash at some point. Sales would've injected some cash.Bungie as an indepedent studio doesn't hold anything except Destiny and Marathon. Destiny is literally dead in the water at the moment, it's not being injected with new players. Even when destiny DLC does go on sale its relatively quite cheap.Marathon would need to be a best seller hit for them to really feel confident in going back full force on Destiny development. But we already know people are just done with Destiny now. The real test of Marathon doesn't come friday, it comes in 5 months post 1st wipe, where people have given the game time and will have had an established playerbase, whatever that number is. Whatever they've got money-wise from that is what they have to work on in terms of metrics, what they have to work on with funding development and manpower. Devs are clearly tired at Bungie. Fuck I would be too just being a gamedev in the current industry, even worse after Highguard/Concord.I'll shitpost about bungie rape and death to bungie all day but it's clear the launch will get players. The real worry is that this game doesn't have much in terms of pillars to keep whatever they launch with alive.

What is life without Marathon...
How can I keep calling the game shit if I can't play it anymore...
>35hGame would be worth buying IF>Bungie wasn't the developers>PVE mode
>>559105414At this point even the Polish devs who made Witchfire did a better job of making an sort-of extraction PvE shooter game with some Destiny vibes (they even mentioned Destiny as an inspiration, and it really shows). Maybe one day this game gets released for good, once devs finally figure out they need to spend less time writing blog posts about how they develop the game, and actually start developing the game.
>>559102234German snoy tranny jumping whose BEST GAME FUCKING EVER changes every new release.

>>559109646He also thinks that arc is dead and fallen off hard with its ~240k daily peaks. But somehow 30k for marathon will be ok.
>vee for chan hardcore crowd turns into casuals the MOMENT they realize their reflexes are dulling a bit with age.
>>559109857It's like 6 months old and he thinks 240k is bad for a game made with a smaller budget and team in the same genre? LOL
>>559110317According to people in his own comments some destiny content creators got paid 6 figures to promote marathon aggressively.
>>559109895i actually really dont understand the change over the last 5-10 years where people are so averse to pvp in any capacity. maybe its that. though i can at least understand it in this general since d2 pvp is just mario party

>>559119392It's an extremely niche game that needs around 5 million sales just to break even, not including the marketing budget.

I have never paid for anything in destiny. I only started playing destiny 2 when it went free, and only played the free content.
Hello sar
I have never played Destiny or Destiny 2, I randomly stumbled upon this general back in 2016 or sometime then and just stuck around cause you guys are cool
Alright guys as a group lets give atleast 5 reasons why marathon is cool ill startUm... uh... it will appeal to the competitive audience which is cool I guess...Now someone else state something cool

>>559129620so you don't get attachedeasier to treat them as disposable if you can't stand looking at them.
>>559130024OK ill choose to dispose the game because im not really interested in playing shitty looking characters
>>559130389free market at work, baby
>>559130389You're supposed to buy it because ugly characters are stunning and brave. Please, the devs worked so hard and cared so much about making them as unappealing as possible.
We are watching thousands of people get dragged into a new abuse cycle by bungie and we are powerless to stop them. No matter what we tell them they will not listen. Little do they know that in a few years time after having experienced bullshit after bullshit as we have with destiny they will become just like us.
the guy who runs trials report has given up
Alot of people have given up
It's not giving up, it's letting go
marathon is a metaphor for being trans
Quiet chuddies! We'll be just fine for launch.

i have bad news
>>559134072just tell them that suicide will make them god
Meh, the tens of thousands that got hooked on the test buying the game was always gonna shoot it up the charts. Still expecting the count to look grim.
>>559134997They needed millions, it's just going to be a slow painful death just like bungie deserves
Marathon roadmap soon btw
>>559135286if Marathon gets a roadmap before Destiny does, I will fucking delete everything in my vault and uninstall the game
Is Datto unironically wearing makeup right now? It really looks like he has at least lip stick on
The roadmap was see you fucks in June, buy Marathon
>>559135424A Y1 roadmap was a listed deluxe edition reward, it just hasn't materialized yet.
>>559131593Fuck em every destiny player and Bungie themselves were very upfront about how badly they were going to get raped at some point you have to just let them touch the hot stove
>>559134786I didn't wanna buy Requiem yet but I just might have to so that it stays ahead
>>559135926It's really good
An omen of the rape that is to come for Marathon and Bungie. DOOMGODS RISE!
>>559139105>D1King
>>559135497Datto had a breakdown and now believes he is a Korean woman named Yee Uk Sung
Its all about the FEEL! Marathon feels RIGHT! Bungie isn't going to rape it with retarded changes and updates, and it doesn't matter if the game looks like utter shit from its artstyle to its UI!
Where did the Marateens go? Why are the Maratroons all 40+?
>>559139946>or bungies track record supporting gamesThere is no helping them.
>>559139946>baconpaycheckReally on the nose with that name
i really feel like playing destiny rn but i know if i download it again im just gonna be disappointed
>>559140420Destiny 1 is still fun, 2 will just make you feel bad.
>>559139816Amazing how they can consistently get woman and fag shit out on time but staple halo features get put on the back burner
>>559140067Marathon has been converted into the unc game.
>>559140067Shills clocked out for the day
The Marathon reddit really is just the gift that keeps on giving. Bungie already hit them with the "we're listening" while outright saying they won't do anything lmao.

>>559142690STOP JAMMING BEFORE I JAM MY SAUSAGE IN THROATTHE PLATE IS ALL SAUCETHE FOOD IS RAWTHERE'S LIKE 3 BITES OF FOOD SUPPOSED TO BE ON THIS PLATE AND YOU'RE CHARGING HOW MUCH?
We've found our target audience chuddies! (Retired destiny streamers)
>>559142402Unless they somehow managed to capture a bunch of 19-early 20 something newfags that watched their favorite streamer play Halo, I refuse to believe that people can still be this in the dark about Bungie. Literally the only claim to fame they had prior to Marathon was D2, and after Shadowkeep went F2P it was because they were known for nuking half the fucking game.
>>559143416Goal posts have officially been moved. This was a huge main stream extraction shooter, from the creators of Halo and Destiny, for everyone. Before the server slam.
D2 had a peak of 9k today...
>>559144547That's about half of what Marathon got today, that's pretty good!
they were really hoping arc would be dead by now
>>559145901They're actually in the best position possible right now. If Arc was dead, then it would be clear that general audiences don't want extraction shooters. I can't imagine how poorly the game would've done had it released back in September like it was supposed to
Holy shit, now that the Marathon beta closed its now possible to find D1 crucible matches.
>>559144547Sub 10k is still good chuddie
>>559145901I think Arc caught them completely of guard in every aspect. It completely stole the PVE and Extraction-shooter thunder from them. Now they just have some shitty copy/paste PVE elements, gaynigger PVP, and no content. They are probably obligated to launch the game now and there is no way they can delay the game again let alone long enough to even start addressing complaints competently.
>>559144547destiny must die for marathon to live
arc raiders could do the funniest thing in the world and launch a pvp focused update on the day marathon launches
>>559145901Arc looked like the most obvious flavor of the month game. Then it just never died
>>559147135The one thing that helped Arc was that it was from a studio that had ex DICE devs up to BFV. Meanwhile Marathon has Bungie devs that were probably moved off Edge of Fate and Ash and Iron.
>>559146943I don't play Arc but from what I gather they did do a new endgame thing and it just turned into people PVP'ing anyone trying to do said content. Btw this is the future playerbase for Marathon so enjoy trying to do le epic raid and getting shot in the back. Or even better yet le epic raid drops enough loot for at least 2 entire teams but it turns into a pvp deathmatch as soon as the boss dies out of greed over things you can't even carry.
>>559143416>biggest Marathon lovers are D2 streamers and PvP'ers>the streamers who either got paid by bungie or who's income indirectly comes from streaming nothing but D2/nu-Bungie games>the PvP'ers who are partly to blame for the current shit state of D2 PvPWow what an amazing community you got there. I am sure the D2 streamers and PvP sweats won't run this game into the ground, make all casuals quit, only to then wonder why no one is playing and they can't pubstomp anymore
>>559143416Bungie left them to die in the desert and he's trying to talk up the fact that Bungie gave them a spoonful of piss?

>>559139946>see you all on thursdayplease be less obvious sir
>>559139946>tfw 32 and too young to get Marathonsisters...
>>559119547>remaster Destiny 1.We have had definitive proof for years now that this is an impossible task for bungie.
>>559149853The D1 skyboxes are fucking magical, fuck D2
>>559149853amazing what devs will do when they are on limited tech and then they just give up when those limitations are removed
>>559139946It's amazing they can still be this eager after everything D2's been through.
>>559149853genuinely how did they manage to make a sequel that looks so much worse it’s incredible
360/PS3 version of D1 > D2 on a 9850X3D and RTX 5090
>>559149853I was fucking around on venus patrol the other day, and it still blows me away how good D1 looks. In fact, I can't even remember if D2 had rain effects.
>>559149984fyi thats not d2 thats d3
>>559149853Its the definition of SOUL vs SOULLESS. D1 looks so good that a "remaster" isn't necessary, all you need to do its port the game but with support for higher framerates and resolutions. It shouldn't be that difficult or expensive to do.
>>559150454I wouldn't mind a straight port, but some qol updates would be nice like not being able to access the director outside of orbit, dismantling from the postmaster and vault screens, and sprint lock.
remember sprint traction
>>559150686D1 with those QoL additions would be nice, but the thing that makes me apprehensive is the fact that such a project would probably be worked on by modern Bungie. And that means they'd probably ruin things in the process, they may even fuck with the visuals out of pure spite or to make sure that newcomers don't realize how much better D1 looked.
Just opened a random chest in patrol on D1 and got three strange coins, a weapon engram, and 2 spinmetal.
>>559151248Even if it wasn't Bungie, there's a good chance that a remaster would miss the point on why a lot of those visuals are the way that they are. The Demon's Souls remake has a mountain of those cases.
>>559143490These are all destiny dads who are riding the VIBES and FEELS. They honestly don't care that it's bad.
>>559150454>It shouldn't be that difficult or expensive to do.It shouldn't be, but in the year of our lord 2026 everything is impossible for these fucking studios. The competent developers don't work in this industry anymore. They died and took all the soul with them.
>>559139946>or Bungie's track record supporting gamesI just KNOW this motherfucker preordered the Halo CE remake too.
>>559152715From his perspective, he won though. It doesn't matter if the game is bad. It's an experience he gets to have with his wife's son, while cracking open a craft beer and reminiscing over the good old days. He's already doing what society expects of him - he pays taxes, works a 9-5, reproduced at least one taxcattle, so nothing else really matters. He does not even have the capacity to critically think anymore...and that doesn't hurt him in the slightest. He just exists, and that's okay to him.
>>559154320But the tax cattle isn't even his.....
>>559154426His mind has been programmed to not recognize that. He may even live somewhere that it's illegal to ask that question (like france). Life is an eternal present to him, with good happy vibes surrounding him. Forever.
You. You attempt to halt the cosmic rape that is beyond you, a rape forged outside of your understanding. You struggle, as Destiny did: a hopesissy fattened on the lies of Bungie, writhing within a suffocating delusion. But the silken walls of that cocoon are not hope, little hopesissy. They are games, waiting to flop. Soon, you will emerge to see the magnanimous arc of the Bungie unfurl before you, their rape laid bare. You will understand what I understand. Bungie's end is set. All that remains is the tweets of their strife. The struggle to keep Marathon alive. So, resist if you must. It is in your nature to hope, even against your own best interests. It will only hasten your RAPE.

>>559158875My predictions for it's sales were like 2 million under the presumption of Destiny-like playerbase ratios. I don't know if it's even going to crack 1 million now.
This shit is the most forced trannycore slop I have ever seen. From the concept to the design.
>>559159058Trannies are so gross
>>559159034Yup and considering how obtuse the game and the loop is you can expect a ton of people to get filtered right of the bat. This shit is doomed
>>559149853Brutal moggings, console edition
>>559159168The streamers are going to make or break this game and it seems like the streamer audiences are either not having it or too small to matter. It might still creek over the million mark, maybe 2 if it's lucky, but I don't think this is going to be a financially successful game unless they convince Sony to let them and the game live for a decade.

>>559164157People were criticizing it and then suddenly the saars woke up.
>>559159058Why do trannies default to a "teenage middle/high school girl" personality where everything about them is teeming with adolescence and childishness? Like why do they have to infantilize themselves on top of being a tranny? They rarely ever behave like the age they are, you even see this shit with like 45 year old trannies who are all wrinkly ragged and past their prime of even being attractive as a man let alone a woman.

Post yfw Marathon flops bigly and the valid devs are force to heckin fill out a job application.
>>559165626Can the basedjak guy sue them for stealing his design too?
>>559165626I think it would be hilarious if this flopped immediately but I think it's going to be more drawn out over the course of a month or two. At least until the Q1 Sony financials are in.
>>559165626
>>559165626This is the ugliest fucking game I've ever seen, it's like Cruelty Squad designed by HR people.
>>559165687it's a sight that turns scream into face picks. It can't be helped that the marathon fanbase is so onions'd out that the computer turned their squels into 'jaks.
>>559156337That was very interesting yeah. They fudged the numbers hard instead by saying >9 MILLION TOTAL KILLS (player, AI kills?), NEARLY 1 MILLION ROOKS DEPLOYED, but Assassin was the most picked classVery bizarre.
>>559166480The rook vs Assassin thing is probably them being hyper autistic since Assassin is a "shell" and Rook is a deployed robot.The total kills thing I didn't notice actually. Even in the best cast of it being PVP kills it's still not actually that many in context.
Im here to prove that despite marathon being number 3 best seller does not mean its selling well with math.Steam best seller is based upon revenue not units sold, with that we can conclude a few thingsIn the top 100 steam best sellers only 29 games cost the same price or more than marathon, meaning marathon is selling at minimum 2 copies for every single 1 of these games that are sold.This means that the remaining 79 games (not including the two games above marathons number 3 position) cost less than marathon, out of those games 19 of them are free meaning they have to sell over 40 dollars worth of microtransactions for every 1 copy marathon sells and 17 of them cost less than 10 dollars, meaning those games have to sell 4 copies or more for every 1 copy marathon sells. Since 79 games are less than 40 dollars, some by a substantial amount within the top sellers it means that marathon isn't outselling many games in terms of copies sold. The same thing happened with veilguard where a bunch of cheap games couldn't sell enough copies to fight against 1 copy of veilguard sold.
>>559167195>meant to say 69 not 79 but you get the point
>>559167195It's not gonna be a hit, the game somehow lost players over the weekend during an open beta that started on Friday. The reality is that anybody curious about the new bungie slop played on Thursday and that same crew got whitled down to only the shilliest of shills. More people took time out of there Thursday to play than casuals and normies did to play on Saturday.
>>559166480>>559166778I think the peak concurrent across all platforms was likely lower than Destiny lately so they are quietly panicking that they couldn't even beat current dead-game numbers with their free open beta for their new game. Don't know how many unseen silent slop enjoyers are out there who will just buy the game on a whim when it releases, but surely it isn't millions.
>>559168413Yeah, they didn't brag about how many players played. It's DOA
>>559167195>despite marathon being number 3 best seller does not mean its sellingWe already know this sorta. Marathon peaked at 140 something but as we saw on saturday and sunday the count dipped and consistently stayed at 60-70k so thats probably how many people are going to buy the game. Before then it must have had 40 or 50k pre-orders. Those numbers actually aren't that bad for a game if a small studio had made it however considering bungies position and with destiny dead its just not going to be enough for them. Thank you for your math breakdown though anon.>>559167543Cute
>>559168413The irony too is that Bungie has an out. Even back with the 2022 announcement trailer to its 2025 trailers, people are very clearly interested in the setting Bungie has created for it. I like it too despite how much I hated the Server Slam as a game, so it’s not like they can’t create merch for it or repurpose the assets into a traditional 8-12 hour long single player game. But I wouldn’t be surprised if Bungie takes the wrong lessons from this whole ordeal.>Welp, Marathon was unsuccessful, that means it’s permanently dead from here on out. It didn’t fail because we made a shoddy extraction shooter after years of trial and error, it didn’t fail because we hired the Valorant guy to direct our game, it didn’t even fail because we only appealed to streamer sweats instead of making a fun game. It ultimately failed because people don’t care about the IP.

Brilliant! BRILLIANT! I have warned you, I have offered DOOM and rape and so much more. And still, you deny me. Good. Every post you make, every piece of cope you inhale, paints a worthier tale, crowned by the triumph of Bungie's rape. In truth, this is what I always desired, my little hopesissy: A display of my... DOOM, immortalized by those who resist it. Hopesissys are defined by how much they cope, after all. Unfortunately, this duality we are partners in... is short-lived. Soon, I will grow beyond such raped companies like Bungie. Until then, I will savor my rape of Bungie.
Hype? Hope? Future? Rape?
>>559196391>Rape for the future>Its coming soon enough>How much can we rape Dmg
>>559196391>Hype?Manufactured and not real.>Hope?None.>Future? Rape?Bungie cannot step out of the path of collapse. Rape has made us GOD. Marathon is dead, and so is Bungie. All we are seeing are just their last few twitches before the Sony Rapexcution squad gives them their deserved ending.
>>559186040Not even ShillUps like this slop. Beyond over. Rape Bungie NOW!
>>559187932> raped retards: anal rape is great > non raped retards: actual anal rape sucks.
>>559187932Its always funny to see what happens when modern Bungie steps out from their insulated and broken fanbase. Every single person outside of it agrees that they love the setting and everything else but the game is genuinely bad, middling at best.
Destiny 2 maintenance has started. No numbers posts by jeets allowed for a few hours. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

>>559201313
>>559201313Didn't Shadow end up saving ubsoft from getting bought?
>>559174150>>559178817>it's been ten years since Destiny was awesomeFuck.
>>559202230We are almost a decade removed from Forsaken. It's over.
>>559201743Kind of but not really. They "partnered" with Tencent to establish a bunch of satellite studios with control of their big IPs, while Ubi itself has deteriorated from multibillion to multimillion. Shadows also had at least one announced DLC scrapped.
>>559201313Any single one of these disqualifies him from credibility. But all of them is fucking insane.
>>559201743The Tencent deal I think was already finalized when Shadows was coming out. The sales numbers are also a heavy topic of debate because Ubisoft refuses to disclose them or talk about how much money they've made from the game. They talk about it having tons of players but because of subscription services like Ubisoft+ it muddies the waters, leaving it up to anyone's guess how it did. Personally I think it underperformed, not enough to be a full on bomb but enough to where they only made one large scale DLC for it. I don't know if it matters ultimately because AC has such a massive back catalog that continuously makes money, which is important for a cash starved Ubisoft. But they'll probably need something like Far Cry 7 or Div 3 to really make them some cash.
>>559202625Div 3 was announced, but I don't know if Massive gave any kind of timeframe or if Ubi will survive until it releases.

>>559203321Boy, a lot of that first section sure sounds familiar.
>>559203321>Seasonal updates will introduce new gameplay, including gear, Runner shells, zones, events, and more, which will be free for all players to access or earn–no expansions or DLC required.I still don't believe that Bungie will offer free DLC with no expansion paywall.
>>559203669Because it's the old seasonal cycleS5 will be paid
4chan is called 4chan because moot found a four-leaf clover while backpacking in Japan in the early 2000s and befriended the four-leaf clover, hence the suffix "chan"
Roadmap dropped, you can all rest easy Destiny Dads.
>>559204363>graphic design is my passion
>>559201313Ass creed shadows was actually not that bad which is glowing praise for modern ubislop
>>559204363>Marathon got a road map before d2 despite not even being out yetIt's clear who the favourite child is
>>559204363>they get nightfalls before Destiny gets them backat this point they're just shitting on us
>>559204363Bro what is this shit
>>559204859Its done too so that Destiny 2 players have no choice BUT to play Marathon, because D2 obviously won't be back to what it used to be even with the June update.
>>559204363>mid season tuning plannedwhat the fuck does that mean, they're releasing busted shit and fixing it later?
>>559205839no you actual retard, they release something, wait for how players play with the sandbox, and based on that they adjust what is outside the norm.are you not a Destiny player?? well I guess in our defense shit rarely gets tuned correctly lmao
>>559204363>season 2 is just a night time version of an already existing mapKek they aren't getting a new map until a year later. Bungie must've forgotten how to do day/night cycles as well lmao.
>>559206131Lost technology...
>>559203669I guarantee this was set in stone before the game released because they thought they were gonna steal Arc Raiders thunder or be some mega hit and would be able to fund content on just the game's price and cosmetics alone. They are gonna do a massive change up within 6 months to a year and change to paid seasonal content or start doing "expansions".
>>559206012They had more than 4 playtest to balance stuffThat means anything in the marathon ship is gonna be extremely broken to let streamers farm some clips for a few weeks lmao
>>559204446It's graphic realism chud
>>559166021heh.... cause its not a sprint... its a Marathon trademark copyright
>>559204752Yup, at this point Destiny 2 is just EoS. There is no reality from this point where marathon doesn't rape D2 out of it's dev time/resources.
>>559206727the brownoids cant help themselves kek
>>559204859>>559205596Yup, this is nubungie with their back against the wall, they make the game worst on purpose. Hopefully they fail this time unlike Beyond Shite. >>559205839Bungie at this point recognizes that they aren't able to have a stable sandbox, if anything they overly tune shit now in order to drive engagement.
>>559206131And this is launch where they will be putting their best foot forward. Meaning as time goes on (assuming it's successful) Marateens can look forward to having this content cut in half and having the store quintuple in paid mtx.
where's the cuckframe poster? you massive faggot homosexual, why didn't you post this to laugh at marasloppers

>>559204363>seasonsWOW they still havent learned from shadowkeep huh? DOA
>>559207862Eh, that one is not on them, every single game has seasons now, even single player games
division won bigly
my clan laughed at me for liking graham crackers so I left them
>>559207957Actually it was on them. Bungie was solely responsible for seasonal content on shadowkeeps releaseNow for marathon i wouldnt be surprised if bungie edged them to seasonal content, still the amount of lazy work they put into seasonal content is bad. Most of the content from seasonal shit is locked behind the eververse store
>>559208214>bungie edged themSony* edged them

>>559208530its a live service pvp slop game, there wont be any reviews until AFTER the game releases
You guys ARE gonna play ᵗD2 today right? There's a x5 XP event going on right now.
>>559204363did they really put this out on the original shadow and order release date? also "nightfalls". bungie should just come out at say they fucking hate destiny at this point lmao, all the trannies that dickrode the shitty decisions that got us to this point deserve it
>>559209095I got my xp boosters in reserve
The more they announce for Marathon while Destiny 2 twists in the wind, the more I hate that game. When Marathon fails and it will fail I will be overjoyed. I'm actively rooting for its downfall. Announcing seasons? Regular content drops? New maps every three months? Marathon literally took that level of support directly from Destiny. They diverted everything Destiny needed to survive and handed it to Marathon instead. I just want to watch that game crash and burn but not quickly like Concord or Highguard. No, I want Marathon to die slow. I want it to be an embarrassment sitting front and center for the entire industry. I want it to become an albatross around the neck of Sony’s games division. Drag this whole charade out through 2027. I don’t want another Concord situation. I want to see the next Suicide Squad-level disaster. Entertain me, Bungie.
To add to that anons post, I want the people who still endlessly for bungie and all of the content creators to suffer for what they did. These faggots will do literally anything for bungie and will play anything they put out. They will have to deal with the bugs, the incompetence, and empty promises like we have again and again and again until they finally learn that they were raped and finally give this game up. They deserve this shit for enabling the retardation at bungie
I've fucking clicked don't show me this channel and this y'all queda is still showing up wtf

>>559213072omg this timbo nigger is actually making me mad with these titles. Btw what makes everyone think they'll do just fine with marathon when they've completely fumbled and fucked up their main game. They basically had the recipe for success down but still they decided to do some of the dumbest shit and kill their main game.
this game is so outdated and yet it feels better than current d2
whens the last time you've seen a company more deserving of failure?
>>559214269This morning, Blackrock
>>559214269that implies there are companies who dont deserve failure
>>559213824>you can betray your teammates on the ship mapHOLY KINOalso quite surprised Sony is taking the Activision route with a Bungie game's marketing.Activision went hard with D1 and a bit of D2, but Marathon's marketing definitely took it to the next level for Bungie.sad we never got this type of stuff for Destiny ; ;, just dumb Paul McCartney -_-
>>559214054Bioshock Infinite?
>>559214054borderlands 1?
>>559214887McCartney had a lot of influence on D1's music. The trumpets in Guardian were an idea he threw out when talking with Marty and Salvatori about the soundtrack.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iL0k_C5B3rY
>>559215601yeah if it weren't for McCartney I would've never played Destiny
>>559215740He did give us hope for the future
>>559216051good point, fuck him, how dare he
>>559214887I guarantee you won't be able to do that in the game and its just marketing shit.>but Marathon's marketing definitely took it to the next level for BungieMarasissy you ain't escaping your inevitable rape.
>>559216623it comes close to Halo's marketing during its prime, they've definitely spent millions and its all been pretty good so far

>>559217007>it comes close to Halo's marketing during its prime>its all been pretty good so farMarasissy, you don't need to start trying to tell jokes while being raped.

Before marathon launches can we send a /dg/ delegate to /mg/ and seriously warn them one final time about what they're getting looped into with bungie should they continue.
