>>566687032are they dotting i's and crossing t's?
Actually, according to my inside sourcesThe reason the Marathon population dropped so much on Steam is that everyone moved from PC to PS5That's why retention remains high, this is what the chuds don't actually getThe split is more like 99.999999999% PS5, and the rest is SteamThe team is jammingEveryone currently working on Destiny 2 is being moved to MarathonAnd Bungie is hiring 1000 new employees for MarathonWe are jammingThe future is looking bright for us Marathonbros

>>566680471Bungie's current era writing killed all interest in destiny. Making it a point of advertisement that the atudio is retconning everything gay and fixing the universe, will garner more interest than anything else they could do. Destiny's(1) launch was the biggest new ip launch of all times, bigger than Avatar's opening. The people that like bungie's new writing and the new gay destiny universe, are all that left playing now. Bungie could tell the fags to fuck off just like they once told the chuds, and go back to being a company with 1mil ccu on their flagship game.
Rape? Ing.
>>566690243It's true. I'm the bull.
It's up.https://youtu.be/_s50cyDpN_4?si=3ceR_7pmiO4LJKOd
>>566693696People wouldn’t care about the gay retcon or the traumadumping arcs if it didn’t come at the expense of so much more interesting stories that could actually be told. Like more fun adventures with the Drifter, why not go back and explore that one “choice” during his season in Forsaken that went literally nowhere? Or if they actually made it to where we finally visit Old Chicago. It’s been years since we knew it was cut from D1, it’s been teased and constantly dangling over the community’s head as a place that actually exists in universe, and it’s only now in the EoF era of the game that we seem finally close to accessing it. And that’s still assuming that we’re even getting those two other expansions at this rate and they didn’t pull the plug to focus on Marathon.
If Ikora Rey was white and wasn't bald and had big fat tits and a nice ass, Destiny would be alive and not a laughingstock
>eh, rising proved that the core playlist activities can be improved on. Gambit is objectively better in risingMaybe they could make a Destiny game that is a compilation of the best content from Destiny and Destiny 2 like Strikes, Crucible, Dungeons, Raids, Exotic Missions while the tower acts as a central hub for these playlists.Destinations and Patrol Zones? Removed.Story? Removed. Because if the game was just legacy content then why would you even bother implementing Patrol Zones or Witch Queen and House of Wolves? And this doesn't even consider how vastly different D1 and D2 are, the gear in D2 is fucking clown shit for the most part, and this is one of those things that I've always believed D1 did better.And a lot of weapons and armour from D1 looked and felt similar to one another which I think was neccessary for making unique drops stand out like event horizon or atheon's epilogue. The problem with D2? It's too essentric, legitimately some legendaries look more exotic than actual exotics in that game. Ultimately I would prefer just being able to play D1 again.
>>566698757
>>566696024Normies care about the gay retcons and trauma dump arcs. The gaming public has shown with their wallets that they prefer games that offer escape from real world dramas, and games that respect the players commitment to learn about the game. If every time you learned something new about the destiny universe, whether through grimoire, campaign events, or any other in game source, then you go to talk to a friend about it a year later, and the ingame information you learned was directly retconned by more recent in game material, you'd stop caring about the universe of destiny. Why bother inveating in it at all, if the developers rewrite the whole thing every other month on a whim, and completely ignore their own in-universe rules.

Man this guy was such a dick
>>566706340Oh you mean the fact that for no decernable reason he decided to be an obnoxious faggot over Twilight Garrison only for Bungie to implement a similar dodge ability onto Striker like a season later? Yeah that was autistic, and its weird how this dude reacted that way instead of being a normal person.
>>566706340RAPE THIS MAN
>>566706340all millennial game devs need to be bullied off of the internet like this fag was
>>566706765>and its weird how this dude reacted that way instead of being a normal personSeriously. The guy could've just went and said something like "Yeah we've thought about adding it back but it wouldnt exactly be like twilight garrison. We'll see what happens in the future but no promises."
>In the beginning, your world was a garden too. The whole floor of the world-sea was a mat of bacteria, and the very first animals, adorable blobs of ooze, grazed upon that mat in endless idyll. They had no concept of the existence of other beings. Why would they? Their most complex function was a kind of gentle spasm, to scoot forward while they grazed. And if they bumped into each other on that warm seabed, all they did was ooze onward, untroubled. There was nothing to their life except the uptake of carbon compounds from the bacterial bed.>And then—one day—the fall occurred. So much earlier and so much more necessary than your myths remember. Some poor mutant discovered that it could collect carbon compounds much faster if it stopped grazing on the bacterial mat and started dissecting and eating the lumps of predigested carbon all around it: its neighbor oozeballs.>It couldn't help but do it. It couldn't help but thrive. We don't get a choice about the rules. We just play the game.>It was the first defector—the first predator. It changed everything. Now the oozeballs needed sensors to watch for danger, and brains to integrate those senses and generate plans of survival, and swift neurons and muscles to enact that plan. This was the Cambrian Explosion, the great birth of complex life on your world. I caused it. I, the defector, the destroyer, the one who takes.They had found such a good villain in the Winnower, a BBEG that is such a fundamental part of reality you can't even imagine a world without it, to be fought in an eternal philosophical struggle. Perfect for a GaaS.But no, we need Mega(Cum)mind so we can say we beat the big bad and give players a story off-ramp. Just in time for the rape of Marathon.RAPE BUNGIE
>>566607587DR is in the Dark Age.
>>566709795The winnower isn't even a villain, just an antagonist to the forces of the gardener. The guardians of earth being the best killers in the universe is a paradox to the winnower, who believes consuming, not creating, energy is the natural order./spoiler/the winnower isn't wrong. The traveler and the light break the laws of the universe/spoiler/

>>566719540paul may be a corpo dicksucker who shamelessly flip-flops positions and got carried through everything he ever did in destiny, but he is not delusional and he actually plays video games which frankly puts him above most game journos
Just because Tassi jumped ship after marathon flopped and slopped does not mean he's not a bunghole shill to his core who downplayed the enshittification of D2 for years and isn't deserving of rape
>>566723784>turned a blind eye to the thing he enjoyed getting rapedYou do know that most people don't wake up and open their eyes? You should celebrate people quitting a cult.Now if he goes back...

I think... I miss Destiny 2 (any era before EoF)
I miss anything from d2 pre shadowkeep
Prismatic was a mistake. It was a lazy way of including a "new" subclass for their "grand slopale" expansion.
>>566725525the censorship in CD is a total nonissue and also korea is (selectively) really restrictive with their lawsmoron coded post tbqh
>>566725525I still don't get the "muh it's a good game!!1!1!" rants.It's not, it's shit, uses the same ass shooting mechanics from D1 that have grown beyond stale by now and it fails at even being a fucking extraction shooter, it's a glorified battle royale. Someone didn't see during years of development that they were making Trials of Osiris but with Battle Royale and thought everything would be fine.
>>566726828Th-they're all whales so Bungie is m-making big money
>>566706340>takes the entire aerial playstyle away from D1 Titan, puts it on Dawnblade (his self-professed main)>designs AE, which was intentionally made to nerf Stomp-EE5, effectively killing Hunter aerial play and movement, resulting in the Hunter PvP meta being ability spam and cheesy gimmick shit since>AE addition includes buffs to Warlock exotics (specifically ones that were the most-used in PvP, which was the justification given for the Stomp-EE5 nerf) and to Dawnblade specifically>is in charge of subclass reworks, makes Dawnblade a combination of top and middle, kills bottom tree entirely, destroys Outlaw GG and Sunspot Titan too>has a condescending tone whenever he's asked about these self-serving game design decisions>disappears from socials, claims he was receiving "harassment," gives no proofI despise Kevin Yanes. His entire career is just the phrase "conflict of interest."
>>566727058d1 shooting mechanics are timeless
>cross is watching a playthrough of the red war lmao
>>566726196Prismatic mostly sucks, it doesn't power creep other subclasses at all. The only problem is giving us multiple melee charges.
>>566728447

man, what a mess they turned destiny into
It's sad destiny was never able to be as cool as the og concept art looked
>>566730520You know it's bad bad when people are nostalgic over things they considered objectively mediocre or even terrible at the time of its release. Things really do just get shittier don't they?
>>566731258I think Destiny 2 at release still had at least some of the soul of Destiny even if it was just a fraction. But current Destiny 2 or even post Shadowkeep doesn't evoke any such feelings anymore not in the music or worlds. Its funny how they use leitmotifs in the music tracks and it grew tiresome hearing the same guardian theme every damage phase on every boss.
I miss the hype leading up to Edge of Fate
>>566727907Bottom Solar Lock gutted was absolute bullshit especially with that one particular loop with old Dawn Chorus when it basically let you loop an ignition chain off grenades and melee, the classic GM Hallowed Lair wave rounds on Fikrul were a prime example when you could wipe things with a solar grenade and punch. Yanes is just very stereotypical powerdrunk dickhead nerd gone rogue and vindictive. There's always tons of these guys in game dev and it's also on management for not tard wrangling these people.
I guess Datto won in the end becoming a Korean woman, he knew Marathon was going to be a bit of a train wreck and didn't even begin to bother to deal with it. I also love how there's this crisis with the people who require streamers to tell them what to do where people think there needs to be build and guide videos for Marathon but with RNG being a constant, it's a little tough to say more than, get these upgrades they're mandatory and if you find x,y,z mod, use them, the end. It seriously feels like I've taken crazy pills how these coping idiots were thinking this would be some phenomena game because "they got voice actors who've been in things!" and there's less cut scenes than Destiny
>>566731621The thing about Y1 D2 was that we were still craving more and had to wait a year after rise of iron. D1 was considered pretty good and unique by the end of its lifespan, bungie still had the reputation to get away with murder so everyone patiently waited for them to pull another TTK during y1 and we got that with Forsaken. Yeah the double primary thing was hot garbage and the red war sucked ass but it was still destiny and the first major expansion made the wait feel worth it, and yeah like you said the game still had some of that D1 soul. It's sad to see how something that was so fundamentally solid was so close to standing the test of time but couldn't because of nothing other than retardation and genuine hatred for the original target audience
>>566731768There was hype for edge of fate? All I felt was doom and despair when I saw they were introducing the same mistakes once more
>>566732489Yeah its genuinely baffling how bad they bottled it. This might be a huge hot take but I'd take double primary sandbox over the current sandbox we have now. Ideally though would have the D2Y1 ability sandbox and the weapon system of D1.
>>566732967only from retards
>>566732094The "proto-ignitions before ignitions were a thing" built into old bottom tree was my favorite part of it, it made Winter's Guile usable in the sandbox back then to chunk bosses and let Warlock have a melee build that wasn't "press one button to clear the entire room" like the Arc slide is nowCall me nostalgic or whatever but I genuinely prefer the old subclass system, "having restrictions and variety in choices made" is better than "having all the options all the time, but they're all kinda shit">Yanes is just very stereotypical powerdrunk dickhead nerdI still remember the Forsaken showoff stream where he couldn't land hits with Luna's Howl on barely moving enemies while using a controller. It really characterizes everything he did in sandbox design as "revenge against people who hurt his ego by beating him" more than anything else.
>>566732967There were people claiming that they were excited to grind armor for the deep buildcrafting potential of the new stat system and set bonuses, but they were either completely retarded or shills.
thankful for the server slam saving us from marathon peaking 100k+
>>566733929AgreedThe server slam did more damage than it did good
>>566733929The server slam is the only reason there's still cope too, its fueling the fire and making marathonsissies keep their hopes up. Until it'll all crumble down.
>Bungie, if you are listening, I applaud you, bravo for creating this game and sticking to your vision. Bravo
>cross goes on another "family vacation">"guys i dont think there's another destiny 3">ramps up replaying ALL of destiny as much as he can>"guys if they re-do destiny ill be so on that! but i dont see it happening...bungie if you're listening"Bungie really invited this dude to play Marathon or something lmao
I hope Bungie can make Eververse armor like this
>>566743956Night Marsh blew his mind
>>566733675It’s a lot of that nerd ego. Luke had it when he tried to make “watchable content” and give this inflated sense of things all because he was hung up on glory days of WoW even though anybody who was there knew AQ scepter title was more round the clock strength in numbers than the individual’s ability. Also there was some huge differences depending on the server and were you on the more populated faction etc. Tyson had it because he loved Diablo so much but failed to realize the biggest pitfall that killed D4 where nobody wants some pseudo basement to the end game padding out the last 10s of levels to finish out to end cap. Also loot drops were way to stingy to fully implement as frequent wiping and locking the whole new gear bonuses. The fact how Bungie never said shit about where Raid or Dungeon would fit in the new gear conversation is also troubling. Imagine Epic Desert only having its shit around for 2 months
>>566731621>I think Destiny 2 at release still had at least some of the soul of Destiny even if it was just a fraction. But current Destiny 2 or even post Shadowkeep doesn't evoke any such feelings anymore not in the music or worlds.Someone post the comparison between Crota's entrance in D1 and D2, I can't find it

>>566751592take your shitty rap somewhere else
>>566749920ON GOD we are all playing as my nigga Scott Mothafuckin' Summers
>>566752681Nah.
>>566727907What is even more idiotic, AE failed to work as they advertised, aka 'you will shoot exactly where you aim' (insert that infamous clip where a streamer uses most available buffs to AE and misses while firing a perfectly lined sniper shot into a stationary target).
>>566755731>failed to work as they advertisedBut it did work as intended (to make everyone quit playing in the air).And on top of that, if you did literally everything possible to "build into it," it WOULD work as before, meaning they didn't technically lie in the advertisement, because they said you'd have to put "heavy investment" into AE to do that. They never give explicit terms on promises so they can hide behind them when it comes out they're using the worst interpretation of their own words.Bungie is second to none in fake promises, half-truths and weaseling around explicit statements in the games industry except maybe Chris Roberts with the constant mental gymnastics to always change what they originally promised, but this isn't a thread for Star Citizen so I won't mention it more
I fucking hate game devs none of them deserve the air they breathe
>>566755731Airborne effectiveness was one of those changes that made the game generally better for 90% of players, but the streamers and the sweatiest players cried like children for months to make sure the game was just that little bit worse, which in turn kept people out of the Crucible. I swear every major issue this game has leads back to Bungie trying to keep twitch happy. Bungie has always been more concerned with the narrative over the reality when it comes to game balance.
STOP THE COUNT
>>566732094Ugh, don't remind me of classic Bungo retardation.>we spam a fuckton of adds at your each wave>but no, these ones in the Hollowed Lair won't count for bounties or catalysts>it would be too easy to rack up kills there, he he
>>566732967I was vaguely inspired by 'better stats on armor', but the actual system we got mostly sucks.
>>566757056>every major issue this game has leads back to Bungie trying to keep twitch happyBecause it's a business shortcut. Instead of spending a $100,000 to attract 10,000, players, save $90,000! Spend only $10,000 to attract 10 streamers, and those streamers will order their 1000 lemmings each to play your game! It's foolproof!
>>566757056For me personally it was an obnoxious turd that made me miss hand cannon shots at retardedly close distances in PvE because I dared to jump and shoot at the same time after years of this causing absolutely no issues with accuracy.
>>566757737Not even jumpingThe game engine thinks you're in air if you walk on any ground that isn't flat.Consider how much of every Crucible map isn't perfectly flat terrain. Little pebbles, stairs, ramps, any of it.AE was the most shortsighted decision Bungie made in terms of the shooting part of the gameplay itself
>>566757737Yeah Bungie did it to nerf you. That was the point. You would have still won 90% of your fights, but the people you killed would actually see you, maybe if you were not literally invisible at the time. This is how stuff works in Marathon now and Bungie is playing stupid about why they're bleeding players like it's a race to the bottom.
>>566758416>in PvEI'm sure those dregs are happy now that I have to stand on solid ground while shooting them. I couldn't care less about the red minigame or its mold or piss colored strains. Also wasn't the Adept Icarus Grip mod part of the problem because I remember seeing it on every sweatlord's Trails hand cannon?
>Chudecross has gone full nuclear on Marathon and says it's shitbased
>>566758731I've never had issues hitting shots in PVE maybe it was a sniper thing. I don't use snipers because they are terrible in PVE. As far as Trials I have no idea you'd never catch me playing Trials. Spending all afternoon getting farmed so other people can get rewarded? Stupid game mode. I have no idea why D2 players are so attached to it.
>>566758896link?
>>566758731>wasn't the Adept Icarus Grip mod part of the problemIt was double the strength of regular Icarus Grip, so that's why they used it. Don't blame the players for Bungie making a bandaid fix to a problem they created.If you used any weapon, if you wanted to still hit shots while walking on stairs you had to use it. Regular Icarus Grip wasn't enough for most weapons, because the overwhelming majority of weapons that are good in PvP had absurdly low AE, which was by design to force people to sit on the ground (unless they played Dawnblade with Heat Rises, thanks Kevin)
Cross got me to dust off my PS4 and play D1. I had a copy of the full edition or whatever on disc. It's a better game. Hands down. >guns actually fucking matter>precision multiplier is relevant and means you need to be precise to fucking kill things, but the damage is high so again, your guns matter >not nearly as much heavy and special ammo spam, but encounters are designed for that >enemies are better designed than just waves of bullshit, the comp seems actually adjusted and balanced, and they're also a threat >strikes are challenging when you first get access to them>bosses don't just melt in .2 seconds and require immunity phases; the fallen walkers are an actual fight as are the Goliath tanks >the upgrade system of playing with your shit to upgrade it is actually good>the loot curve actually fucking exists and legendaries feel like amazing upgrades when you get them >factions and rep matter It's actually insane how the same people that polished this thing and set up Age of Triumph proceeded to apparently lobotomize themselves and then shit out D2 vanilla.

>>566758416i don't think bungie has to "play" at being stupid
>>566761034based
>>566761034>>the upgrade system of playing with your shit to upgrade it is actually goodfunny that this is how crafted weapons worked and people hated it
>>566763593this is false and d1 has multiple ways to speed up weapon progress
>>566763593People hated the crafting upgrade system because it rewarded most of its xp on activity completions. Tryhards cheesed that almost immediately, leaving only the casuals doing it legit with an extremely long and tedious grind, calling for like a dozen strike completions per gun.
>Destiny 2: Beyond Light cryovolcano concept Cool. I wonder if maybe they planned on adding something like this in the background like the venus volcano. I also find it interesting that jesse uses D1 gear in these instead of 2's
$3.6 billion btw
>>566765060fuck off tourist>>566765879this wouldn't have been a problem if crafting was rare and specialbut they just shat out craftable weapons so each season you had like 7 new craftable weaponsand it also took dozens of activity completions to get red borders and then extract them(i cant remember did you have to level up a weapon before being able to extract the pattern? they changed this mechanic so many times) so by the time you have got the ability to craft a weapon you have already done idk 50 activity completions and then had to do a dozen morerepeat 7 timesthis took most people most of if not all season to do, so people were just on an endless craftable weapon grind which made the game and loot in general feel dogshit
>>566765957Bungie usually uses D1 gear in concept art, presumably because it has fewer tiny details to bother with.
>>566765957Also I dunno if you guys saw in the OP pic I used but theres a 4 wheeled vehicle that we've never seen before or at least I haven't seen it until now. I guess its a suped up ATV? Would've been cool if it was our version of halos warthog

>>566767248what in sam hell is a puma?

>>566767593It's a big cat, like a lion.
>>566768106you're makin that up
>>566766778They had retarded systems, like, to collect a red border you needed to find a weapon with a red border and level it up first by killing or completing activities, they had multiple resources that were assigned to perk groups and that you needed to craft. It was just one big trouble, and that was after they scraped their initial brilliant idea to have a unique crafting resource FOR EVERY SINGLE PERK IN EXISTENCE.
>>566767063I memba when it was leaked that they were working on vehicles that could have multiple players on them like Halo. Think it was the original Witch Queen leak which also had a ton of stuff about the 30th annivesary which got cut like a bunch of the Halo crossover stuff.
>>566768454He is making it upThe Puma was a German 8-wheeled armored car in the second world war, don't listen to him
>>566768536the unique resources would work as long as the inventory was uncapped, but it really wasn't
dmg was brutally raped in the sweltering summer of 2025
>>566768660They slashed it idea because it was way too overwhelming even by their standards. And, I guess, because their engine would shit itself.

>>566731621>But current Destiny 2 or even post Shadowkeep doesn't evoke any such feelings anymore not in the music or worlds.it's everything after Beyond Light. sometimes i'll randomly hum to myself music from Beyond Light but i can't think of a single track from the later expansions other than one of the actiony ones from Lightfall. Europa is a much better destination than what came after and i think it's the last good one. and the atmosphere is far superior tooi don't think it went off of a cliff immediately after BL but it was a very steep decline before the cliffit's just soulless now

Layoffs status?Tahnit status?
the final cope
Proud to see Bungie consistently sucking streamer cock, they are consistent at this.
>>566779219Playing Marathon all the time... and not just raging on twitter of those fucking CHUDS.
>>566775187>can't think of a single trackBro the Grasp of Avarice music is fantastic. Feels like they ripped that old energy right back out for it (makes sense as a nostalgia trip)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UN2ncuVcPfsThere aren't many grand examples, though.
>>566762478looking at this makes me wanna cry a lil bit
>>566779881>Bungie does the bare minimum and puts in features that should've been there from the beginning>FUCK BUNGIE COOKED MARATHON IS SAVED!!!I can already see the glazing of it now from the shills. Bungie is doing the bare minimum with these small changes and the shills are trying to make it out like Bungie just dropped Forsaken every week since the game came out.
>>566775187I still wonder how much of Europa was designed for D1 and was then repurposed to D2. I still liked the Throne World in WQ, but Europa feels like it’s part of a different game when compared to Neomunda, The Pale Heart or Kepler.>>566777608Frankly it wouldn’t be a shock. Bungie let down Sony time and time again, and their parent company just had to explain to their investors that even though Bungie is now worth 700 million dollars less than when they bought it, they still believe in them and by extension Marathon. They had to say that publicly of course, but behind closed doors Sony has to be fucking furious with how embarassed they feel consistently having to protect their worst investment.It would be also explain why Cross suddenly threw out phrases like>We may just get one Renegades sized expansion per year>We aren’t getting a D3.His contacts were blunt and the “vibes” throughout the studio is absolutely the worst they’ve ever been in history.

>>566777608sony reveal?
>>566779514Who the fuck is "we" and why is this jackoff blaming anything but the game being bad?
>>566781304Man, I'm still tripping over Paul Tassi calling it "selfish" to want something he'd like to buy to come out of Bungie. That's not selfish; that's called being a customer. Nobody owes Bungie their support, especially if they're not making anything you want to buy.
>>566782683That’s just how deep the psychological hold Bungie has over their fans. You want Bungie to do absolutely more than the bare minimum like other smaller devs can? You expected Marathon to have a casual thrown together Arena mode for fun or for priority contracts to load you into solo instances to learn how to play the game? That just means you’re a fucking entitled CHUD that has no idea what it’s like to work on games!
I really thought Marathon would hold 10k concurrent at least.I guess it is the end of the "season", there will be a surge with S2 but we'll probably start seeing sub 10k peaks soon.
My prediction for Marathons second season is a peak of 30k and that’s being generous
>>566777608>>566781134THE FINAL RAPE APPROACHESRUN WHILE YOU STILL CAN DMG, BUT YOU CANNOT HIDE FROM ESCHARUM'S DOOMCOCK!
>>566785156you're gonna look like a colossal retard when it peaks at 34k
I love how this old as fuck pre golden age aircraft carrier is somehow on this mysterious planet that is beyond our solar system and not one motherfucker makes a comment about it.
>>566785453Something something the Nine, this was their keikaku all along
Why did marathon flop? Nine did it
>>566784136i thought they would hold at 50 for like 4 monthswhen they dropped below 50k not even a month in i literally could not fucking believe it.
>>566785843Marathon did itself no favors by being extremely light on content. It’d be one thing if it at least had a standard team deathmatch playlist to pass the time for those that got burned out on the extraction game mode, but it didn’t even have that.
>>566785453Wouldn't surprise me if it had a bigger role in the story originally but they cut it out because time travelling/dimension hopping boat would just be too similar to the borealis from Half Life.
>>566777608If there's anyone at Bungie that deserves to be laid off, it's dmg.
>>566787245They didn't care about EoF being too similar to Control.
>>566781248>21:35 in the 2nd video why did he think those names were so funny? idgi
>>566787245They could've just played it off as a reference to the Philadelphia experiment
>>566787245It used to be a normal ocean that for some reason they floated military navy vessels in, CHUD, then it froze.
>>566788393Way too kino for bungie
>>566787245>he thinks it was a practical reasonThey ran out of time and released whatever they had before the Sony whip came.
>>566787245They clearly cut a few things out as seen with whatever robert was talking about in that one tweet and how we were all gonna freak out when we saw what these one things were.
>>566766651holy shit did we actually beat them already? we havent gotten an update in almost a year but we're still doing better than the 2 month old game lmao
Destiny needs garten of ban ban
>>566790809More Crossoverslop soon.
>>566790912What do you think is next? Invincible? Marvel? Marathon is a given
>>566790809Can't believe I was cursed with the burden of knowledge. Among Us crossover will save everything.
>>566791291Marathon already happened with the preorder bonuses.
>>566791492There's gonna be earnable armor in the future (and I shouldn't have to tell you if it looks good or not)
>>566791614So Destroyer is lazily 1:1 exported into Destiny 2 and shaders are bugged to fuck on it because they never intended or planned for it. For Titans of course. What do the other 2 get? Hunter Gets wannabe edgelord Assassin or the ugly punk girl because she can double jump? Warlocks get...?
>>566792080my nigga Triage
1300 hours played and only now i learnt about eager edgehow in the fuck retard like me was able to "play" this game until nowthis stupid perk, available only on few weapons is basically mandatory in raids and dungeonswhat in the fuck bungie is doing
>>566792080I was thinking warlocks get glitch because bungies been going on a streak with making warlock the trans class for whatever reason
>>566792080I thought Warlocks were going to get “Blackbird”/Recon, which is pretty underwhelming if you’re a dude.
>>566792452What you dont rike mandatory stremaer loadouts chud? Sorry this game wasnt made for normal people like you please go play that stupid care bear game arc raiders if you want that kinda experience

another day of destiny 2 having a higher 24 peak than marathon
What's going on here? Why are more people playing when there's less to do?
>>566805376I agree, OG Marathon that is of course, not whatever vomit they came up with now and decided to call Marathon.
>>566807668wasn't there a big humble bundle sale for like 30 bucks for the entire franchise?
>>566807910Ah right I think there was. Destiny2 daily active users getting propped up by South Americans I guess.
>>566777608As they should be. Revenue is falling. The only way they don't take another giant drop in valuation is by cutting expenses. Their team is bloated, slow and not producing shit. >>566807668I suspect like hunt, that D is benefiting from people fleeing marathon.
>>566808569It could also be because there were some Destiny players that bought Marathon not because they were really sold on the game, but just because they figured they had to bail out Bungie yet another time so there wouldn’t be mass layoffs impacting new Destiny content. And after those Destiny fans truly gave it a chance, they dropped the game when they realized it was so lacking in content as a stand-alone release, let alone as a potential expansion. It would probably have just worked as Forsaken or Shadowkeep’s equivalent of The Divison’s Dark Zone tops, and that’s being generous.

Idk about you guys but I literally skipped every single dialogue vendor cutscene or holoprojectir cutscene because it was time waster bullshit trying to connect pieces of the story I didn't really give a shit about and I think i still mostly understand what was happening in the seasons that had that shit
>>566835241Nah, the marathon thread was nothing but the same reddit shill copypastas, and everyone else shiting on the game. After a marathon thread reaches critical failure of not being able to sway public opinion, they delete the thread to try again later. All it takes is a few knowledgeable anti-shills to get the jannies/shills to delete their own threads.
>>566835543>skip>implyingThe bulk of the seasonal story crap like that was unskippable by design.
>>566830491the gun variety is kinda bad
>>566835721>unskippable Im talking about the parts where its like>return to the goyim projector to get your story dump and poop rewardAlways skipped that shit and moved on to farming. Its not like the dialogue prompt forced you to look at the whole thing. The only thing unskippable was the loadscreen that had to take me there
>>566836107it literally does thomost seasonal stories gate you behind triggering projectors voice lines at certain points.
>>566836801Yeah the projector lines show up but you can press escape to skip the cutscene and claim your reward and move onTheirs forced moments where you watch 2 characters talk face to face but the vendor dialogue is skippable
>>566834215What's that?
>>566837092It was always so awkward when you just show up as a mute third wheel to some intimate conversation between two characters and you just stare or dance around them while the cutscene finishes.

How did Destiny win after all this bros?
>>566854204he has dozens of thousands of subs on twitch and he mostly plays other games lol
>>566854204Its hard for him not to be, his Bungie contacts probably confirmed to him that D3 is not only not happening, but we're only getting one Renegades-sized expansion per year with the rest of the year being full of event battle passes for content. All of that while they're putting all their effort into Marathon, and the most they're getting is a variant of an existing map, one new runner and a few guns.

It would make far more sense for egregore and Pyramid magic to infect the Leviathan and turn it into a cool new location rather than making up that new gay "Typhon Imperator". Lightfall sucks and that includes everything it did with Calus.

would I look retarded if I brought my legion laptop to grad school during classes, it's 16 inches and I use it as my second PC for gaming on the road.or should I just buy a 14in thinkpad for a buck thirty?
>>566854808Facts. And wasn't yt essentially a side-gig for him and most money went to his editors? Like, they take his vods and slice and dice them into yt content, be that shorts or full-length vids.
>>566868179If you bring a "gamer" laptop with rgb and shit, the few people who sit and "people watch" will think you're a dork, but no one will care that much; most won't even notice you're out of the ordinary, and others will have the same type of computer you do so they obviously can't judge you.Most everyone is in their own little bubble that contains only them and their belongings and don't care about anything outside of itStop worrying about what people think of you, anon, nobody cares, it's all in your head.
>>566868746the rgb is off, I'm just more so concerned people will be intimidated since they'll probably have small MacBooks or tablets, and I'm over here pulling out a monster truck.but fuck it, least I'll be able to grind Destiny and the June update while in some boring lecture
>>566867856i regret selling my ps4
my PS4 has homebrew installed so I can't play D1 either way
>>566869592A 16" laptop isn't exactly huge, 2 inches of desk space isn't a noticeable thing to most people; they won't realize it's even any bigger unless you hold them next to each other.As long as it doesn't sound like an RC drone picking up when you turn it on, no one will give a fuck, and in the case it is you'll get clowned for all of an afternoon until the next thing happens.College kids are all awkward dweebs who care way too much about how they're perceived to the point that they don't notice how others are. Everyone else in that room is doing the exact same thing you are, worrywarting over literally every detail of how they look or carry themselves instead of looking at how others are. They're too busy managing themselves to care about your laptop being bigger than theirs.
