more players than signed the petition, before the update.
current destiny 2 steam player count : 17,274
current slopathon steam player count (reminder that 70% of the playerbase across all platforms is on pc) : 10,753

other news : last thread got nuked because troo devs know an admin. snoy and bungo are botting replies and engagment across twitter, youtube, 4chan, reddit, and other such social media platforms. maraxisters dont know the difference between CCU's and DAU's, as well as being unable to perform basic math.

Whenever Bungie is forced to spit out the next slop they've been working on, it'll be a Sony exclusive. You will buy a PS5/6 to support Bungie won't you? Don't you want another chance at Destiny being remade guardian?

>>568409441
Sure, when they were still willing to publish to other platforms. That's going away and is a lot smaller of an investment than cooking up another Destiny. You're going to need a lot more people to convince Sony its worth the investment. At best you'll probably just get a outsourced studio remaking Destiny for single player on the cheap. Sony has already lost a lot of money and value on Bungie as it is, why would they take the risk now?

His website basically is him being open for business to shill anything, shit was always rigged and they def cut him a few checks to bring over cod kiddies knowing cod was gonna be a sketchy year. The first embargo dropped last year of marathon feedback basically was the flood gate of all these C-sorta A listers for various fps who maybe got a few bucks basically confused as fuck over the game and my guess is there was probably some catch where they had to stick with something or join some program if they wanted to get money. I just remember a number of these guys very unenthused by Marathon and just didn’t know who it was for which I don’t think is unwarranted still.
>>568406661
Bradley I’m 75% sure is somebody Cross knows personally and they helped each other out doing some plant work to run with the bit of ā€œwe helped this guy do his raid, it was epicā€ shtick. Bradley prior basically was one of those people trying to catch views with bait,reactions, and other stuff riding on moments of viral popularity. Not saying there aren’t just random weirdos doing that and fall into things, but it seemed a touch too rehearsed that suddenly this guy is in Aztecross videos for a second and is getting paraded around like he was everybody’s friend. A lot of this shit had always been pro wrestling

Its still frustrating how they will still pretend that Strand was always meant for Lightfall and not WQ.

>>568409441
Its easier to port a game than it is to make a new one, though it'd be easier for anyone else but Bungie to make a new game from scratch with all new assets since they're still been reusing content meant for D1. Sony's definitely aware of the demand for Destiny by now tho, because why else would they add nearly all of D2's expansions (Year of Prophecy is excluded) to the Playstation Plus Premium catalog ahead of the June update? Even though Paul Tassi claims otherwise, it's obvious that their parent company has more or less given up hope that Marathon will become something huge, and they're 100% going to keep an eye on which game gets played more that month.

>>
>>568410414
My guess is the money made wasn’t enough and the decline hit things hard. Final Shape had a huge delay and record drop offs, that is gonna suck whichever way sliced. Then we get the shit fest of Year of Prophecy which nobody gave a fuck about and to try to milk more expansions out of nothing content wasn’t gonna fly either. If I had to guess I do wonder if things hit a point where making a D3 is too risky because there’s so few people that play and would potentially play a new title. I mean how different could it be, adding overdue QOL shit wouldn’t move copies, I also think how the game series has sort of an older crowd appeal. It’s not buzzy shit that makes assholes money anymore . Lastly game for everybody doesn’t work. You’re not gonna get the flow of raids and dungeons when barely people touch them. I think in many way Destiny did sort of run its course, yeah no shit they should’ve made a sequel clean break ages ago but idk in the now

I don't know if I'd even go that far, its definitely doing twice as good as Gray Zone Warfare but that's not even a F2P game, it's an advertised Early Access game and its from a studio that's way smaller than Bungie. And yeah its doing better than some smaller extraction shooters like Far Far West, but you'd expect that. And even when compared to Dark and Darker it has a lower 24 hour peak CCU.
Also included Blue Archive just for shits and giggles, its a PC port of a mobile gacha and yet it still somehow has a higher peak playercount than Marathon.

Literally none of this would have happened if it wasn't for the poor launch of D2. I've said this before but vanilla D2 set us back so badly its crazy. They spent so long getting back to the status quo and it wasn't even until beyond light/witch queen and its seasons did we finally get D1 subclass customization back. Like jesus imagine where we'd be right now if the game started out like D1 but better in every way imaginable and more.

I don't want Destiny 3... It seems people forgot Destiny turned into DEI trannyslop years ago. About when they re-did the end game, fleshed out the darkness saga and invented the witness, which is just lots of people standing in the same place. The rot set in then in the writing, so I don't trust Bungie to do anything right anymore. There were plenty of great stories they could have told, but the ones they chose to tell speak volumes. Its a cliche to write yourself into a corner and use time travel or the multiverse to fix it, but wish magic? What happened to the hard-scifi? inb4 paracausal, they keep dropping this word like it means anything more than an ex-machina.
Marathon was a great story and a perfect candidate for a remake. Guess that ship sailed. sad.

You do know Tarkov has a standalone launcher right? Not to mention that these devs are based in Russia or some other Eastern European country that has a weak currency. They can take a low player base and survive fine, Bungie on the other hand cannot because they live close to one of the most expensive cities in the US where the cost of living is very high. And they aren't someone like Microsoft who can afford to stay there, they're SoL.

Tyson Green never existed, it's just a character they made up to pin all the blame for ruining the game. The Portal was never meant to be a good idea, it was always meant to make players angry and frustrated so they stopped playing. Bungie hates Destiny and has since at least Beyond Light, likely Forsaken.

They'll get more virulent and delusional as it goes on. Death of the old gens is long overdue, Sony will shit out some new GAAS exclusive to the new gen and they'll be left in the dark to rot until they turn the servers off in 2028 or whenever. At this point id rather see Bungie torn to pieces and their IP used by more competent studios.

if you have the gear, touch of malice scatternades void warlock is actually fun as hell.

rain of fire mythoclast close second.

I remember in d1 if you didnt have a hunter while doing wrath and your at siege machine you can substitute tether with a storm caller warlock and kill everything that spawned in while people focused cannons
Wrath was such a good raid that they designed it with a open sandbox so you could bring and make use of any loadout that atleast was practicable in a raid setting

>>568417804
juggling the cannons encounter was best encounter. raze lighter and dark drinker were allowed to shine

we had a stormcaller on our team that would just focus adds and it made things WAY too simple. i miss when abilities, supers, weapons, archetypes all had a niche and were allowed to shine depending on the encounter.

I really dont get why we went to fun raid experiences to watchable day 1 slop. Normal mode was always the intended difficulty and they've been trying to shove down big fat watchable content down our throats. You can have hard mechanics but forced loadouts, and champions is just annoying to deal with. Normal mode not so bad but in mastermode its mandatory. Luckily they made the raid rewards so dogshit nowadays that they effectively made master raids pointless to do
Destiny 1 just did raids so much better in all aspects

>>568418421
Its probably because nuMarathon fans AKA Bungie fans are too detached from reality. They want to believe that the game still won even though Bungie lives in one of the priciest cities in America, trailing only behind San Francisco, so they'll have even more of a hill to climb if they want to come close to breaking even. Its that or they've been in their bubble for so long that it never occurred to them that a game can reach EoS faster than expected if not shut down entirely.
Bungie is prime for rape either way though, because Marathon is struggling to reach its peak and Destiny 2, their only product, hasn't been profitable since Lightfall's launch. I don't know what can really be done to save the studio since there's only so Sony can do to keep them in business, and their toolset + work ethic makes them one of Sony's least productive studios considering they're supposed to be the experts of live service.

out of the three, i would say the only one you NEED to do is vow, just make sure you go into like a nublight, do a quick run through of the campaign, even if its on normal just to save the time, and pay attention to the story beats when you start the raid. it truly is cinema, and the only reason people rank with queen so highly.

the only logical response i gutting the studio, save for whatever talent is redeemable, setting a new leadership structure in place, and focus on both games, just one at a time. in this example, both would receive updates, just one would get a huge patch first "fixing" everything. the cost of something like this, then you have to think of future update cycles, everyone KNOWS, everyone FEELS, what needs to happen. snoy already spent 3.6 billion.

what money do they have left? i dont even blame hulst for making his crack-cocaine fueled decision to stay with marathon, either one is a long shot because he CANT sink more money into the studio, even though that is unironically the only thing left to do. an ouroboros of fuckery that he can never win, a jester's game.

the real question : how long until slopathon players realize whats happening?

i truly dont care about the art, to me art direction/design is tertiary at best and irrelevant at worst.

it's the fucking loop. the lack of variance. there are only a few maps, and each map is really designed around player level/skill level, so at a certain point you will ever only be interacting with at most 2 maps seriously at end game. the end game (currently) is cryo, but like, it just halls, and the spawns are so fucked that a well placed c4/grenade can third party without needing to think about positioning outside of where your fucking triage is. loot and vaults reset at the end of each season, faction rep resets at the end of each season, they can keep adding shells to diversify gameplay without adding a few maps first, and i have seen no such mention of adding maps in any article/roadmap. arc raiders has clearer, more consistent goals, with relatively lighter end game, and its better for it because those devs fleshed out every system instead of pushing, competitive gameplay? i dont even know what the real point is here. cryo ranked is a logrithmic rng simulator where you pray to your god you dont get fucked by the spawn system and are allowed to walk 5 rooms in any direction from your starting area.

no vehicles
no interactables outside of cryo shit
no secrets/secret areas
supposedly there are open world raids but fuck if i know because i havent even a fucking youtube vid of that shit, as if bungo is copyrighting everything "TAKE IT DOWN TAKE IT DOWN THEY CANT KNOW ITS THIS DOGSHIT".


i dont know man. then you have people defending both sides cuz turf warz and shiet, im praying to God its not them defending the devs/bungo because fuck, acclerationism might have a fucking point.

There are no 'marathon fans'. The entire 'fanbase' is some of the most astroturfed shit I've ever seen, and it's been obvious since launch. We live in an age where a fucking Forza game can get 300k concurrent players on steam (Destiny tier) yet a $250m live service shooter from one of the most well known studios can't even break 90k, and they still want you to believe that shit isn't a colossal flop

To be completely honest, I don't think a destiny 3 would save bungie unless they do a hard reboot on the IP. They've built up too much bad faith with people that weren't already heavily invested in the game and its incredibly confusing to try and follow the story even for seasoned players.

I had played the game solo for years, never raiding. Around RoN i found a nice clan. Die RoN as my first raid, then we mopped up everything i had missed over the years.

They already did the research that the game doesn’t have any interest from younger demographics and other marketable snags. Paul Tassi talked about this with how there was a leaked memo were all old and a few Bungie people tweeted about this. I wouldn’t be shocked if all of those ā€œrumorsā€ snoy tightening choke chain etc is based in facts. Destiny is a lot more risky than people give it credit for in current year. I feel like a d3 would attempt another rehash, and there would be even less people who’d tolerate it. Bungie was planning to do less with Final Shape, imagine if they went through and there’s your big blow out end cap? They already said no year 2 sized years so you’re basically getting a new game bound for less eventful happenings. I like Destiny but it definitely ran its course as an idea, you can only play something that feels like you beat it 10x over so many times

Idk I really don’t want to be so cynical I get this game always sat easier when you didn’t overthink it, but man some of the dumb fuck story stuff just rubbed me the wrong way and how ungodly casual they got trying to make the Winnower sound and have all these very samey tone retreads. What’s next one of the good Nine members was the first Guardian and has been watching over us closer than we think and shows us the first Ghost? And then we find out it’s actually the Guardian from a different time line? You also figure 2 DLC a year format is less stories and more pressure on things to really hit.

Honestly they basically were lying the entire time about this. They said these "expansions" were a little bigger than Rise of Iron, what they really are is just bigger seasons or more like episodes that have all their content focused on one thing rather than multiple activities. The ideal model for Destiny back a few years ago would've been...
>Cut the 4 seasons of the year and the launch season effort is rolled into the expansion with the other 3 being rolled into a big update/mini-expansion 6 months later
>still have new reward passes every 3 months
>Have some sort of seasonal reset 3 months after each expansion or big update with new artifact mods and some new gear on ritual activities
The recipe for success was basically right there but they wanted to do seasonal slop that got deleted every year and dripfed story bullshit.

The settlement is that nobody paid anything and they covered their own legal fees. All of his arguments were torn apart and he tried to change his case and claim some Bungie anthology was copyright infringing on his works too later in the case which pissed off the judge.

There is no evidence he wasn't paid. There is also no evidence he was paid. The ideal scenario is that Bungie's motion to dismiss got denied as well as the writers motion to strike the evidence. So most likely the settlement was to just not go to trial because it would be too expensive for both Bungie and the writer. But there is no guarantee the writer wasn't paid as we don't know the terms of the settlement.

That was purely on Destiny players being mentally ill retards though. Play literally any comparable game (mmo/semi-mmo). Your gear gets sunset literally every time a new raid releases. Wanting the same gun to be good for 10 years without being powercrept or sunset is fucking ridiculous.

The funniest shit with IB gear was they literally had handfuls of times to reboot CoO and Warmind’s as proper sets and they didn’t do it until they tried that half assed attempt at WM’s for Edgers set.

Cross losing his shit and declaring war on Bungie/Marathon has all the threat rating of a small congonian warlord declaring death to the west. He's small potatoes in the grand scheme unless he actually has a master plan with highly influential people on board.

But it ain't gonna happen. Marathon will continue to flounder and then the entire studio will be gutted and distributed into Sony. The real question is if Sony will want to do anything with the Destiny IP in the future, not if Bungie will make D3. Bungie is dead and buried.

Seriously though sunsetting didn't work in Destiny because of Bungie not producing enough new gear and the way the gear is designed just simply doesn't work with sunsetting. Guns in Destiny aren't simply stat sticks like tab based combat MMOs. Also the RNG needed to get an ideal roll in Destiny is a bit too much for gear to be sunset every so often. Powercreep would've happened regardless since otherwise we'd just be on a endless hamster wheel of grinding the exact same perks on guns with just different names. Though right now weapons aren't the things being powercrept that would be abilities.

While not solely on them, there was just a bit too much of a stank left on this game by content fuckers that ruined things in some part. Off top of my head I think of the reception of Contest DSC where uh oh game's too easy, such a handout and 99.9% of that was motivated by ego wrecked Redeem and other "old guard" clans realizing they're getting knocked off their perch. I know people love to hate him, but I respect Salamigreppo for throwing down the min/max autism in more mainstream and basically painting a precarious scene for these newly washed veterans. To this fucking day I could be convinced Vow's Day 1 was a complete fixed job, Bungie wanted Greppo vs Datto grudge match because you go through the numbers and compare contrast, Datto's team wasn't really that good by that point, there were a lot of the sweaty random ass retards getting better and better and Bungie figured they'd have one last go to get Datto in the spot light and he still fucking lost. I know you could argue Vow was who did and didn't get kicked and by how many times, but the situation always struck me as a little suspicious. Redeem brain broken is great too and it is amazing how fucking retarded Gladd is as a human

way too many kick happy retards who would kick you for running off meta builds that worked while they would not even run an exotic.

Go ahead, I mean they all won regardless of how they are as people and what they say.

Shiggy diggy. I dont think either side is in the right here but Bungie's inaction and not changing the fucking game so these retards can't just boot you from raids or the end of activities and have to leave themselves instead and start a new group is what ulimately killed the game. It did nothing but enable petty bullying and unlike MW2 lobbies where people had to take what they dished out, they just run their mouths and REMOVE FROM FIRETEAM like the little bitches they are. I really cannot place the sole blame on bungo because the toxicity of lfg and performative assholes who won't just invite you to their friend groups are why no one communicates and micless raids are more often to succeed, especially flawless runs.


I really liked the "into the light" theme. Wish we had more info on whatever the fuck "BRAVE" was because we can't even access that hub area anymore for it. Was cool to see superblack in a containment field inside a cryptarch vault.

I ended up kicking some of these faggots during a VOW run recently because they kept begging me to kick the people going through the jumping puzzle because they didn't cheat and teleport to the end using macros and other shit that are bannable. Oh boohoo our raid takes 30 min instead 5. I paid to play the fucking game and already have all these guns crafted. If you want to go fast go play CS surf or something. Destiny isnt the game for you.

nta but raids in Destiny are hit or miss. Recently they've been huge misses. Problem with raids is you either have more shooting and combat and less mechanics or more mechanics and less shooting and combat. In a shooter I would want to be shooting things not really solving puzzles. I like to keep my shooting games and puzzle games seperate. I don't mind Destiny having puzzles occasionally but in a coop setting its reliant on your teammates not being retarded. Deep Stone Crypt to me is probably the most ideal raid design with intuitive mechanics and plenty of combat. The Witness in SE is close to what I would want out of a raid boss, I would want simple mechanics but the boss itself actually is attacking and you need to doge during a damage phase rather than them getting stunned and letting you just pump damage into them like Oryx and Taniks I guess too.

I really don't see myself playing another game like Destiny 2. Again, I'd probably try Destiny 3, and I'll come back on June 9th to give everything a go again (been almost 2 years now for me since I played). I'd like to kinda play a game like D2 again but I've tried warframe and I didn't like it, I actually played old beta 2013 Warframe and then I played a bit of it casually, then I think I played it on PC a bit. Never grabbed me.
Other than that, I just picked up 007. I play customized DayZ PvE servers a lot of the time too holy fuck you would not believe the drama in those and I would probably play Civ 7 but they made an objectively awful Civ game and unenjoyable strategy game and it still isn't fixed.

Your chart shows a clear long-term decline that accelerated sharply after The Final Shape (mid-2024). Each expansion revival became smaller than the last, and the floor kept dropping. The most recent expansions — The Edge of Fate and Renegades — barely moved the needle.
What Has Actually Happened
Bungie has officially confirmed that Destiny 2 is ending, with future expansions canceled and all content updates stopping after June 9, 2026.

The financial damage is staggering. Sony recorded a $766 million impairment loss against Bungie's intangible assets in fiscal year 2025. Sony's CFO acknowledged that "the level of sales and user engagement has not reached the expectation we had at the time of the acquisition of Bungie," which cost $3.6 billion in 2022.
Steam peak concurrent players are now sitting around 18,000, compared to what was once hundreds of thousands.
Why It Wasn't Viable
A few compounding factors killed the business case:
Expansion fatigue: The chart shows each launch spike getting smaller, meaning the game had less and less ability to pull players back.
The Final Shape problem: After The Final Shape — widely considered a perfect narrative sendoff — Bungie switched to smaller content drops, and The Edge of Fate had the lowest player count of any expansion.
No path forward: Destiny 3 has not been greenlighted and is not in active production despite internal pitches, and a Destiny spin-off was quietly canceled after the Sony acquisition.

The Bottom Line
The player chart you shared essentially predicted this outcome — a game that required constant new content investment to retain players, but with diminishing returns on each investment cycle. Once the cost of development outpaced what a shrinking playerbase could generate in revenue, the math stopped working. Sony's $766M write-down is the financial confirmation of exactly what that chart shows visually.

There is a Polish extraction shooter game, Witchfire, inspired by Destiny and Dark Souls, but it is purely single player/PvE, funded by 1-year EGS exclusivity money (something I usually detest), and it still stewing in early access with uncertain future. I had mixed impressions from very early builds, no idea how the game changed since then. The game was very annoying that you could run out of ammo easily, especially in the beginning when you have low stats and unleveled guns without perks, and the game all but forces close-range engagement on you because even the hand cannon has retarded fall-off beyond 25-30 m.

Assuming Bungie doesn't shred the harddrives out of spite, someone could come in years later and reconstruct all the vaulted content again. The environments and enemy models all still exist so it's not out of the realm of possibility to recreate the AI and lighting. In fact it could be even better because the enemy AI wouldn't need to be on a remote server, it could run locally on your PC.

The future is looking bright bros!

The exchange rate of the US Dollar to Indian Rupees is 1 USD per 95.78 INR.
The median monthly wage in India is approximately 9000 rupees, which is $93.96.
Less than $100 per shill, each working 6 days a week, so $1000 buys you 10 shills on this schedule for an entire month. Extrapolate that out to 2nd and 3rd shift workers for $3000 per month on 30 people doing always-on shilling.

Bungie has talented artists and gameplay designers but horrible tech, writers, systems designers, social beliefs, and leadership. They couldn't make a food Destiny 3, but another studio with their artists probably could.

My personal theory is that the Clovis plotlines have basically been absorbed into Marathon, just without the Bray sisters.

AIEEEEEE! Fucking hate hate this addition. Completely unnecessary, it shit bins so much Hive history and fucks with the power rank of making Rhulk uber god level but of course we have no record of him. WQ’s campaign already had the twist of Hive’s getting played and deceived, it could’ve always been evil space worms. I legit don’t get why they didn’t stick with that when it makes sense and weirdly feels a bit ironic and kind of original. Big scary ass crusty aliens are ruled by worms, hell even Sav makes a point in Ron lore book how sword logic was bullshit and the worms needed Hive more than the other way around, it’s good stuff let the worms be independently evil, you don’t need Rhulk in the picture. God it pissed me off so much

My point is that they're not neutral at all, they're clearly involved with heinous shit? PROGO is clearly front for bullshit and everyone is way out of their depth, no one has any idea and the UESC would rather be completely all over damage control rather than communicate with anyone at all.

The Bungie business model at work: a cycle of games as products. They probably have another game being worked on right now to release in 2-3 years with the same fucking systems but in a different genre.

In the first place, they were Race 5/Glimmer/Oryx's fleet, and they'd darken the skies of worlds they wanted to conquer. The dark cloud that forms beneath them would "take" the entire planet, moving it to the ascendant realm and making all life on it serve the darkness. But you know,, trainstations.

Will D2's ending at least be dignified, compared to the alternative of a chain of more lame DLCs and more dev retardation?
>>
>>568483841
This isn't even a fundemental problem with weapon reskins.
Destiny 2 just doesn't do reskins good, and a lot of weapon designs are really fucking bad.
You cant even change weapon sights on the guns anymore which really helped sell the illusion that you're getting something slightly different or customizable in Destiny 1, and sometimes you do prefer some sights or barrels over others, but I digress.

Vendor inventories in Destiny 2 look like a moshpit of random garbage and half of this shit isn't even worth using when seasonal weapons were always better than everything else.

Probably a bit higher than previously anticipated because of the free week but not by much. But ultimately that free week has to convince those players to pay $40 and I just don't think it will.

If you want an actual theory, it's because they view power as the ultimate evil. Being able to control others and impose your rule is bad, so they resort to evil emperors and kings a lot. More recently they lean on influential white men in society, so rich CEOs, mob leaders, corrupt politicians etc.

Rightwing writers tend to use "otherness" as the enemy. Stuff that's ugly or mysterious makes an inherently good villain because humans hate and fear it on impulse. Think of orcs, monsters, demons, anything that hides in the shadows etc. But that's xenophobic so left-wing writers can't embrace it. You can't make something evil just because it's different, that's discrimination. And that's why you see them constantly try to paint this kind of creature as misunderstood, or even corrupted by humanity. It's actually the ones who hate the ugly violent creature who are evil, you see?

The Witness was an amalgamation of an ancient precursor race who was (probably) the first to be visited by the Traveler, and after they decided to go full schizo and worship the Traveler and ask it for meaning of existence, only to be ignored, they decided to combine the Traveler with its Dark counterpart, the Veil. The Traveler decided this was retarded, and fled. The precursors used the Veil to fuse themselves into a single godlike gestalt entity and chase the Traveler, also fucking up every civilization touched by it in the process, causing them as much suffering as it could because the Witness was a vindictive bitch. The Pyramid ships from the Black Fleet are a nothingburger at this point, they are either empty, or contain relics and collections from the Witness's original race or its conquests in its crusade against the Traveler. Some of them were used as command ships by his minions (Nezarec was spearheading the invasion of Earth, and the Pyramid on the moon was retconned to be his personal ship). That's it.

Also The Witness gave Calus a special fancy ship instead of a Pyramid because he asked nicely. So the "Black Fleet" essentially served no purposed at all.

>>568490167
I mean, that's in some sense what the Covenant in Halo was, but Halo 2/3 handles it pretty well. Better than the fucking Cabal are handled, since the Brutes in Halo are full-blown against the races that took up the higher stations of importance in the Covenant (fuck you 343), the Sangheili are either committed or they're generally more interested in survival and longing for their home world.
In Destiny the "flood threat" is stretched out way too long, the Fallen essentially don't have anything redeeming about them until Destiny 2 (which handles them worse than the break-off Elites) and the Brutes are split into Eramis and Cabal entirely, except the Cabal in D2 are the shitty 343 brutes

imo The Witness would've worked better if it was trying to become "the final shape" by absorbing those that agreed with its philosophy and wanted to become part of "the final shape" while destroying all dissenters and the traveller was something it wanted to use to achieve that goal since the traveller could create life. But since its still a singular entity it can't be everywhere and so uses minions to do its bidding.

Basically I think it would've been better if The Witness wanted to become "the final shape" and absorb those that it deemed worthy and the traveller was just a means to create life to absorb to make itself stronger rather than some gay emo "freeze the world in a perfect moment because this world sucks". That all probably doesn't sound that great to others but I think it would've been at least a bit better than what we got.

2 new guns, 2 enemies, 1 reskinned map and they are calling that a season? Are the seasons free or something? Why is it so lack luster compared to the seasonal slop in d2?

Seasons are indeed free in Marathon. But that underdelivery isn't surprising since the only recurring monetisation for Marathon is the premium currency sales. They are taking the mindset from Destiny where if its free it gets zero effort or the bare minimum.

Lol true. If we actually got that three phase boss fight for The Witness in TFS raid people would've probably liked him a little more. But Bungie can't overdeliver so they just made him bigger and gave him some more arms.

When it turned out all the ships were empty, I honestly thought the pyramid ships were just going to be Mass Effect (2) Reapers; I.E each one was a race consumed by the darkness and forced into a Perfect/Final Shape, being the ship itself. I didn't really like the idea very much, but looking back on it now at least it would have been something.
