Fuck bungie. I paid for destiny 2 and the first dlc or so, and they literally removed that content and didnt compensate anyone for it. If you’re okay with behavior like that, fuck you too. They’re forever anathema to me.

My general rule of thumb when it comes to this is that if they say “due to rising costs” within the first few sentences it usually means “not enough money for the important people.”

I’ve seen indie devs make more functional and graphically intensive games on a shoe string budget. And then go around and sell it for less than $60.

Plenty of amazing small studios make great games for a budget of a couple packs of mtn dew and some cheese whiz crackers

Wow. We’ve come full circle. Wouldn’t it be ironic if Marathon is not released for the Mac.

e: I think it was about 30 years ago when I first played Marathon on an Apple Macintosh Performa 450.

Maybe about 25ish years since I watched Bungie demo the “Mac” game called Halo with Steve Jobs.

Whatever they’re making now isn’t even Marathon. Some random game with the same name and a few references, but its a crappy live service looter shooter like Tarkov or whatever. I love Marathon, but this imposter deserves a fat L.

Imagine having that entire lore to work with and you make a shitty “The Finals” with it.

Bungie lost their way the moment Microsoft pulled gaming away from Mac.

Nah, the Bungie developed Halo games were great. Literally ruled the world. Bungie lost their way when they started mistreating their own major employees (the reason the number 7 is so prevalent in Bungie stuff). Poisoned the watering hole.

Joe Staten wrote out this whole world and plan for Destiny 1 and then Jason Jones scrapped it and Frankensteined it with his friends fantasy thing. And he locked Joe Staten out of the conversations about Destiny 1 after that. Joe Staten had written the Dreadnaught (which ended up in the Taken King expansion) as the end game area of the base game. That and what they did to Marty, you don’t do that without some serious internal problems.

The finals isn’t even a looter shooter though, it’s an arena shooter.

The finals is pretty damn fun though I will say.

I’ll also say I wanted marathon to work, any good competition to tarkov is welcome because I’m not fucking supporting Nikita and his idiotic practices anymore. He got EOD money from me in 2016/17, hope he made good use of it

Understandable. They haven’t made a good game since Halo Reach.

Haven’t they ONLY made Destiny since Reach?
