Thread 724974928

Will it flop?

They're doubling down on the ugly women so yes.

>>724974928 (OP)
It already has

Yes.
I still question the use of the Marathon name, outside of niche FPS circles, does it really hold enough regard for it to be slapped on an unrelated game?

>>724974928 (OP)
Yes. Ok next thread!

If it's still a pointless "extraction shooter" then yes.

Yeah.

they should cancel the game and make a show instead

I think so. Arc Raiders has capture a good chunk of the potential extraction shooter audience. How will Sony/Bungie convince people to buy Marathon at $40 with bare bone maps and hero abilities?

>>724974928 (OP)
will microsoft sue them now for stealing minecraft assets?

>>724974928 (OP)
It literally already has.

No. I play shooters real conversations take place on /vg/

>>724976715
By releasing a better game after people already got bored of Arc? Are you seriously this dense?

It will succeed and the cope threads will be hilarious!

>Marathon: Shooter in an atmospheric environment with a bunch of puzzles
>Sequel is a looter shooter in coop-mode with place-holder graphics
This thing was DOA and no amount of shilling will help them break even and may even mean the death of Bungie Studios.

>better

>>724975237
It's not unrelated

>>724974928 (OP)
Flop or not, does not matter
I will not buy

>>724974928 (OP)
literally DOA

>>724979709
Just because it has surface level references to Marathon without any consideration of what came before in terms of gameplay or aesthetics does not mean it is related.

>>724974928 (OP)
>Will it flop?
Yeah, big time, make sure to buy enough popcorn for when that inevitably happens.

>>724975237
Geezerannon here who remembers when Bungie was mac. Fuck no. And more importantly, the extraction shooter part is completely repulsive to the old brand name. The only thing I'm expecting that's any good is some of the alien tech cyberpunk cutscenes.

Also completely bizzare how stock UE library some of the biomes look.

Marathon is a game that genuinely has zero target audience.
They aimed it at Tarkov players. They hated it.
They aimed it at Destiny players. They hated it.
They aimed it at Apex players. They hated it.
They aimed it at trannies. They killed themselves. Not because of the game though.
They aimed it at investors. They loved it, but investors don't play games.

lul

What the fuck are those designs? holy lol

Not of the put Destiny 2 raids into the game as something to work towards with the loot.

Also get rid of proxy chat, it’s cringe and puts player encounters into this weird social stalemate.

Get rid of solo queue too. It imbalances the game and fucks with class composition and skills.

Also, break the extraction formula and give more reason for players to push for the final extraction zone, rather than looting a building and getting out in 5 minutes.

What's related about it at all? It seems to be about as related as Halo. I mean, I expected them to do shit like throw in a TF2 type administrator, using Durandal's psycho love for violence and jeering your pain and death, but it doesn't even have that.

>>724974928 (OP)
bungie trendchasing extfagtion shooters is so fucking sad

>>724981026
>What the fuck are those designs?
stolen!

>>724981728
what's really sad is being ten years late to the party

>>724979819
the missions in marathon had you enter a level, take something then leave
you shot guns inbetween
seems like it's pretty faithful to the gameplay
once you look past the fact it's not gritty hyper realism the aesthetics also start making a lot of sense, everything is mass produced and 3d printed as cheaply as possible because you're trying to salvage whatever's left of a ruined colony planet

>>724974928 (OP)
it wont even release, Bungie is going to close its doors in January, Screencap This.

>>724983218
>seems like it's pretty faithful to the gameplay
It's not at all. It's like saying Pathways into darkness, Prey, either one crysis and goddam serious sam are related.

I have 100 hours on Arc and love it and Marathon is x100 better

>>724974928 (OP)
I fucking hope

>>724984057
Explain in depth. Use full autismo power here..

>2025

it flopped 3 years ago

>>724983485
ok nigga

I played Marathon 1 on release. I light 3 candles. You have no fucking clue what you're talking about.

>>724984057
How the HECK can I be 100 times stronger….!

>>724985003
i will be playing the real marathon and laughing while you seethe from the sidelines

>>724983218
>once you look past the fact it's not gritty hyper realism
Uh, no shit? What are you even talking about

Should have used pathways into darkness instead of marathon. But then people would moan that it's too generic.

How would you describe the artstyle? I saw someone say dishwasherpunk

>>724985626
Your first blender project.

>>724974928 (OP)
Yes

>>724983218
imagine living your entire life this dishonestly

Are you jewish or how come you lie so much?

>>724974928 (OP)
Yeah
>Still an extraction shooter
>Enemy and level design isn't bad but it's fundamentally not really gripping the same way the trailer was
>game feels low budget
>something still wrong with the art style

>>724986192
Based schizopost but you forgot to format your rage right, anon. You gotta break it down more like:
>opinion I don't like
>project wild assumptions based on nothing
>write paragraph calling someone mentally ill while exhibiting symptoms

Honestly, it's just not peak /v/ unless you end it with "seek help" or "touch grass" while typing it out from a Cheeto-stained mattress.
