Marathon (Bungie) PS5, Xbox Series X, PC

[Gritsngravy]

I don't think it's possible to know until you actually play it. People were quick to dismiss Marvel Rivals gameplay and look how well that game is performing. It's hard to even know how good gunplay of a game is until you actually play it yourself. I guess gameplay wise you have to see how a match goes and guess if the loop works for you.

I agree, i think the thing that makes this appealing is the art style, art direction can go a long way for games if you take it seriously

It almost makes you want to ask them to do more stuff with that style than just a extraction pvp game

I wonder if they will eventually just do a PVE mode. I hear the enemy AI is actually tough in this game

If they want this to be something people play consistently they probably will need to add a pve mode

In trying to think how tarkov and the division and to an extent helldivers play and make improvements on that somehow

They probably lowkey would also have to add a raid type mode eventually, but don’t make it like destiny raids since we played through that already

Maybe make a raid type of mode that’s kinda reminiscent to heist games like payday

But whatever they do they should know by now the best way for a game like this to work is to be consistent with content

So this is not a F2P game.... but a full price "retail" release... launching with only 3 maps, no singleplayer campaign... and you gotta buy a battlepass every season too?? Even Concord might look like a blockbuster in comparison when you realize how many times Bungie's rebooted this game/how exorbitant the development costs were and how horribly it's gonna flop.

this was a decision that was made, they deserve to flop

this drops the same day as borderlands 4 pve is gonna be covered

i have a hard time believing they'll be able to slap together a pve focused transition after the fact when it'll be competing against itself and BL4 at the same time

 

[42 Monks]

geez.... and between the short and the reveal/gameplay, its not hard to tell how far apart the art direction is in each man

the valorant lead that bungie brought in really watered down some quality concepts

Nah, hopefully it flops on day 1. Y'all over here brainstorming and shyt.

Can't wait till these sorry mfs close their doors for good.

These worthless cocksuckers told Naughty Dog not to drop Factions, which could've saved that game for me (personally), but want to put out a full priced title with almost no content.

Trojan Horse ass dev purchase.

A art book would be dope Bungie

Supposedly there will be one.. got to give them time to finish Marathon's story first

 

[Grand Conde]

Looks alright. Assume it will be 40 bucks.

SkillUp was mixed on it.

Apparently the enemy AI is excellent.

Big disconnect between the concept art and what's actually here. shyt looks like cyber LEGOs compared to that gameplay reveal teaser trailer. I was expecting something closer to Mirrors Edge or the Finals that runs a little faster. It is what it is, but now I have to readjust to what they actually got going on, smh.

Watching the full gameplay now. Its looking like Apex mixed with Risk of Rain. I'll probably give it a shot but definitely lowered expectations. This don't even look better than Helldivers. I personally think should've upped the brightness/contrast and added some more music/SFX through the zones closer to Apex. I hope it's successful though because we need a good extraction shooter on console.

Also no voice chat since they determined a voice chat would be to toxic



I was a hard pass without even seeing it...

This is the bungie killer, and they've already said that if marathon flops, destiny is dead

Gave destiny 10 good years... if this is how it dies... so be it

Are the alpha codes on this discord?
