  Can we stop making everything a huge interconnected online only world? Like I like the visuals and the atmosphere that these previews have given me (I know a lot of it was stolen, but I still ~like~ it) but no way in shit does any of that mystery or intrigue come through if I’ve got 3 drunk or high assholes shooting everything that moves with me.

  I wish they had just made a single player Marathon sequel… oh well. I will definitely give it a shot but confidence is low :(

  I’m calling it a DOA.

  What is this? It doesn’t even look remotely related to Marathon? Why didn’t they just call it something else then?

    Same thing with the recent “””carmageddon””” game, that basically has fuck all to do with actual Carmageddon.

    I guess it’s easier to get the naming rights to a beloved franchise and just hope for customers that way, instead of making an ACTUALLY GOOD GAME.

    Yeah, if they had called it something else I would’ve checked it out. I do like the art style and the world building but…

    It ain’t Marathon.

    “allegedly” you can board the alien spaceship and see the marathon enemies of old as some sort of unlockable raid thing… I saw the floating invisible alien in one of the trailers for about 3/4 of a second… but genuinely why even call it marathon?

  This breaks my heart. The Marathon trilogy had such a cool setting and atmosphere. What the hell is this.

  This game was caught using stolen assets. Fuck Bungie.

    I hate Bungie, but it was only a few textures, and they have been replaced. The rest of the game is not “stolen.”

      I didn’t say the whole game was stolen. The fact that they stole assets at all is deplorable. Also, this wasn’t the first time they were caught doing that. They’ve been caught stealing artwork for Destiny too. Fuck Bungie.

  This has the makings of another Concord written all over it. Even after the disaster with the stolen art, the reports I’ve heard are that the gameplay just isn’t good. Whatever talent was at Bungie left some time ago by the sounds of things.

  Looks like Destiny with its soul sucked out.
