Marathon

This game...looks....AWESOME!!!

It looks gay just like your post

I want this to end up being good just so I can play a bungie game again, I miss their gunplay

Best weapon in gaming.

Looks cool. The artstyle really came into its own, the original showing didn't work for me.

Bungie themselves put out a tweet announcing a gameplay trailer that unironically uses the phrase

'nothing compares to a warm dead body'

it's like they already know it's dead on arrival

It's on xbox aswell? Didn't sony blow a whole lotta money on the studio?

stfu shill there's no way you liked what you saw here

I'm sure Ziegler has completely dumpstered any good ideas they had for this game which is a shame because I did the aesthetic

Their agreement with Sony allows them to essentially still be a third party studio

If I remember right one of the deals for talent retainment was that Sony couldn't force Bungie to make Playstation exclusives. Either way with how much money they spent you want your live service on as many platforms as possible

extraction shooter

Sony spent so much fucking money on Bungie, all to get cucked like this.
I bet Marathon will struggle to break even at the end of the day, this screams 'disappointment', but evidently, one Sony can't un-release.

Wait, I thought fairgame$ was the concord.

nta but thats from the original marathon games. dumb faggot.

No shit it is, so it has nothing to do with this abomination and anyone trying to combine the two together is a disgusting shill you stupid cock sucker.

Why even call this Marathon.

oh so you're not dumb, you're just crazy. cool.

Rope tranny cock sucker

for real, they should have given us another dogshit doomclone instead. god i miss laying the original games....i love the horrible maze levels and the generic doom clone gameplay.

Cute Pokemon

All 12 marathon fans are gonna be super upset the spht and lhowon and bobs aren't being properly represented!!!!!

A S'pht Compiler was shown in the original trailer

Fuck off tranny subhuman, go make some more gay black samurai games.

this hardcore gamer schtick ur doing is creally cringe. nobody cares that you pretend to think some shitty 1994 doom clone is a secret treasure of gaming

As expected from the bunguys

kys poser.

Neck yourself tranny

tranny ruins a game

calls other people posers

Rope now

Some kind of brand recognition. This has become the MO in the last 10-20 years. Get an IP, slap some IP hallmarks onto it, sell it as if it's a sequel/prequel/spin-off. Except in the case of Marathon, nobody cares about Marathon more than any original IP, it's just that obscure and irrelevant.

This actually looks cool.

Why are right wing retards mad about it again?

it's a handful of people pretending to be die hard fans of the og games so they can claim elite gamer status by getting outraged that bungie is reviving one of their long dormant franchises.

It looks like shit you subhuman that's why "right wingers" are mad, just call it concord you filthy cock suckers.

Defending current Bungie is a weird hill to die on

they're addicted to outrage, this is nothing like concord but now they'll force it to be, it's literally 2020s tortanic at this point
just want to force another sinking ship to be cynical about, there was literally nothing to get upset about in this trailer

Except in the case of Marathon, nobody cares about Marathon more than any original IP, it's just that obscure and irrelevant.

doesnt that directly contradict your first point? marathon has no brand recognition so its not at all like what you described

It's either shills or bait most likely.

this is nothing like concord but now they'll force it to be

lol the tranny cope is already beginning, you love to see it, this looks like dogshit and if you weren't taking hrt you could easily see it yourself.

couldnt just be people sick of dumb niggers endless need to turn everything into a fucking problem or dunking match

you're trying way too hard, retard
you think about trannies way too much

Oh wow, a trailer that's just a dead body in a jungle for 2 minutes. Really hyped for this now.

rope now troon, your game is tranny garbage and everyone sees it

People like nuBungie now?

This is all Sony had to counter two whole Nintendo Directs with?

what do you mean? this thread is just shitflinging. the only remotely "positive" replies were a couple people saying they hope this doesnt suck. everything else has been very negative.

They had to destroy a chud IP, you just don't understand.

Well, it looks pretty and has an interesting visual style

A shame it doesn't actually resemble anything about the original Marathon games, is in a totally different subgenre that misses the appeal of what made those games lauded, and will likely have always online DRM with no way to play offline

getting extraction shooter slop instead of rise of kino for destiny

still no siva since release

Bungie will die a sad pathetic death with the release of marathon and that will forever solidify Rise of Iron as the best piece of content bungie has ever put out

Nah it's obviously bait because no one in their right mind would defend fucking BUNGIE of all studios and pretend that shit won't be a flop day one.

a totally different subgenre that misses the appeal of what made those games lauded

bad doom clones? you want them to make another bad doom clone in 2025?

Better than extractionslop.

Honestly I don't know what can be defended anymore. The artistic talent perhaps. The people up top performed a Judas betrayal and destroyed themselves from the inside out with some poisoned help from Activision, the leads directing things for Destiny 2 lost the picture as soon as D2 was a concept, and the company has no idea what the hell they're doing. I can say, "Hey, yeah, they make some solid shooting mechanics!" But that doesn't sell shit when you try to nickle and dime your players for literally everything but the bare basics of gameplay, including content they can pay for and then lose access to in a couple year's time by sunsetting.
There's not an inch of the old Bungie left that's worth caring for, and with hindsight for the Halo games they made, they basically fucking fluked by in the first place.

is we gettin concord 2 dis year?

How can anyone still trust this retarded fucking studio after how they handled Destiny

he doesn't have hope for the future

You wouldn't get it

What exactly is wrong with modern bungie besides 'muh marty'

What a weird teaser. Off screen fighting with blood splatter and shadows and then a pink lioness comes up and sits next to your dying body? Well at least we've got a date for the gameplay reveal with the 12th.

Sony spent so much fucking money on Bungie, all to get cucked like this.

It's even worse when you remember that Sony bought Bungie in order to consult and supervise over all of those GAAS titles they were supposed to shit out, with only one of them actually escaping developer hell/cancellation to actually release. That was Concord, and they pulled the plug on it like 10 days later. So here's Bungie, Sony paid out the ass to buy them, but not only have they released zero games for Sony but they also failed to get any PS Studios GAAS games out the door for them. And to top it all off they fired a chunk of their employees to avoid paying them, despite Sony giving them extra money to prevent that from happening, and then restructuring their company so instead they leech off of PS Studios staff to do the work for them.

I hate absolutely everything about this

Marathon has never been good..

Absolutely fucking not and the only fools who think that are people with Sunk cost with Destiny

how is an extraction shooter "slop" by default? name 3 extraction shooter games.

it's crazy, it's like they paid for poison

I'm legitimately too scared to look.

If I remember right one of the deals for talent retainment was that Sony couldn't force Bungie to make Playstation exclusives

And then Bungie laid them all off anyways

It's the only other IP Bungie owns. There was nothing stopping them from calling this a Destiny spinoff or just giving it its own name, but I'm sure the jewish cryptids that currently run Bungie as a corporate entity thought it's better to use the Marathon name as marketing fodder.

youtube.com/watch?v=xOBoG5kIvLE&themeRefresh=1

they don't want to goof up an make the trailer look more fun than the game

Infinity, Durandal

seasonal content slop

shitty fucking story by Robert Brooke's where literally nothing fucking happens and all of the villans never die

you only ever use one weapon loadout per season because of how bungie balances the game

content requires everyone to have a brain when you entire playerbase is filled with retards

streamers have a huge influence towards bungies design

bungie doesn't play their own game

they went from "we make games that we want to play" to "we make games that inspire friendship"

loot is awful and not worth grinding ever in newly released seasonal content

sunset 4.0 coming up in Frontiers

only 1 raid and 2 Dungeons per year now

This actually looks cool.

A CGI trailer that showed nothing of worth actually looks cool?

Like he said, it's never been good.

Bungie was also the reason naughty dog's Factions game never saw the light of day either. Actually there is no way of knowing how much shit Bungie got killed by merely existing.

Træsh

it's like they paid for poison

Well they did buy a studio that even Activision didn't want.

No CHADcurity Officer? No buy

I hade hope for the future for one and a half decade straight

And Bungie shat on that hope time abd time again

Yes the concept looks cool. We will see the gameplay in the next trailer.

This looks really cool, I like the style. I don't know anything about Marathon so I am just part of the newfags that will treat it as a new IP. Sorry Marathon boomers but I know you feel because of Prey, although I don't relate the 2017 game with the 2005 anymore, it was just in the initial release, so I enjoy both.
I do know that Bungie is retarded having played D2 for a while, so I am skeptical.

we all know its just gonna play like cod.

Division
Tardkov
And the other extraction shooters I don't give a shit about because they suck

Worse it'll play like Destiny without it's main gimmick

i wouldn't really call the division an extraction shooter. the dark zone is like 25% of the game.

Those are all good games.

why do newfags hate animals

you just listed two good games

HUNT Showdown
Dark and Darker
Gray Zone Warfare
Zero Sievert

Even ganes like Witchfire and Lethal Company take inspiration from it

No

Cod gameplay is very solid, the game sucks for other reasons

nah there are absolutely going to be classes in this game. look, you already have a titan, a chick trying to be a phantasy star online ranger and a guy in a nerd helmet who probably knows magic

furtranny

Cod gameplay is very solid

sure but if i wanted to play cod i'd just play cod. i thought we had this conversation in 2010

So if they're all bio-engineered bodies made from the ground-up by silk moths, why did they choose to be Asian twinks? Why not make themselves buff super aryans or giga niggas?

BUNGIE?!

YO CUH DAT CORD DONE SNAPPED

because if your game doesn't have a hot chick in the concept art half of the internet will stop caring.

Extraction games are barely videogames because they lack the structure necessary to make a game entertaining. REPO, Lethal company, Tarkov, et al. these games suck.

Wow bungie really cooked this time around
I just bought 100 dollars worth of silver to show my support!
Huntsis btw

I hate this shit so much it's absolutely unreal. Like, pure hatred on a scale so massive I can't even take it

looks like shit already.

If I could solo or co-op with friends and no other players running amok, hey I could give it a try, but when your reveal trailer literally has a sniper camper team wipe another one, I don't want any part of that shit.

yeah, its basically just neotokyo but minus the svol

Can I get a temparature check on Destinyfags after the Final Shape?

How much do people hate Bungie after that?

Based, don't play this shit zoomers

You can't even play large portions of paid Destiny expansions or even the base game anymore. Like Destiny/Destiny 2 exist as functional games but a pretty large portion of the actual game has been "vaulted" because they couldn't figure out how to keep developing the game without removing previously made levels/stories and what have you. So if you liked a Destiny 2 expansion from early in it's lifecycle fuck you it's just gone forever now.

Also, Destiny is kind of a shit game overall. It's like a slightly elevated Borderlands that's also an MMO-lite game with a really terrible story. The "Vaulting" thing is the most egregious example of why the game is horribly anti-consumer but there's also the usual pushed microtransactions, dark paths, battlepasses, etc etc. It's like a mobile game you have to pay full price for. Even if you liked Halo, the people who actually made Halo what it is have long since either retired or left, and Bungie has been focusing on "extracting value" and "managing expectations" ever since. They did a whole GDC talk about how to make a live service game just good enough to keep people playing without ever accidentally making it too good because then you inflate people's expectations. They're almost a comically evil company at this point, and they don't even make good games. This "Marathon" game is just the corporate suits strip mining anything left at the company that people still remember fondly since Destiny is finally sputtering out and dying.

thanks doc

What looks cool about it? Show your thought process now

Looks boring and Bungie shills will love it

I'm tired of oversexualized female characters in videogames.

didnt they abandon d2 after that?
they also released a fucking destint mobile game lmao

they are so late to the "woah look, high contrast colors!" fad

At least it had a distinct art style, unlike Concord. I'm not really interested in PvP FPSes, though. So, I'll pass on this regardless.

There's no way on earth this doesn't have the same design process that Concord had. It would have been far too late to course correct this.
It will naturally do better though because the npc shills are ready to defend it this time

unlike Concord

concord had a distinct artstyle though. it was stylized used future. everyone just hated it because none of the characters were sexualized.

campaign good
raid good
dungeons good
all that matters

As a proud marathon veteran, I am excited for the upcoming marathon pvp title
I always loved bungie and what they did for us passionate gamers
I am hyped as fuck right now

Concord had a distinctly shit artstyle yes, ugly as sin characters notwithstanding

it's technically 'on-going' in the sense that there will no longer be major expansions, just smaller content releases and updates

Concord had a distinctly shit artstyle yes

it was literally just star wars. half the characters looked like extras from the original trilogy.

But the pic you posted is a hundred times more appealing than Concord

The Finals has that ultra-contrasty look and feel of mirrors edge on steroids and honestly i wouldn't mind more of it.

Man, I just don't care anymore. I'm not excited cause I know it's either another extraction shooter like initially planned or they hard pivoted and it stands no chance.
It looks pretty nice, I like the color scheme, I think it LOOKS pretty, but the game part of it, I have nothing but bad feelings with how long it's taken them to show off after announce. They were talking like it was a year or two out and it's been what, 3 now?
That screams behind the scenes failures. Delayed games are NEVER good.

Love the botted comments glazing this pile of shit.

What happened to the art direction? This is just Apex Legends

extraction shooter

lol
lmao

Crazy how these were just some whatever background characters but look better than everything made in the last 20 years combined and multiplied by 10. Really dont blame boomers for blaming younger people for everything if this is what they could put together

Yes, everyone looked like normal people in shitty makeup. Muh realism.

What is the distinct artstyle? Colorful robots and blocks? This is shit. First trailer did look like it had some artstyle but this is shit

pivoting to try and hide his underagedness

cool

Apex Legends

More accurately, Valorant (Ziegler).

Did they at least get refunds/portions of refunds for the vaulted stories?

lol, lmao even

Fuck no, what game company would ever do that so willingly for that shit? Bungie has firmly established that devs can take away content you explicitly paid for even on its own and there's nothing you can do about it.

chink with a puffy jacket in a warzone

helmets that look like something on Wish

Yeaaah there goes that "artstyle"

true but this still shouldn't be called marathon as you shouldn't be called a woman

More like low budget cosplays... Except they were the actual characters

Stop making fun of bungie right fucking now

garish neon colors = cool

fuck off

Oh yeah totally. But the jungle map with all them blocks and wires around the place reminds me of Apex. But yeah the whole game has the same style as the Valorant logo lol

true

Nothing true about it, trannies shouldn't have named their tranny game "marathon"

Is the Marathon trilogy actually good compared to Doom, or did it only achieve cult classic status because for a while it was the only fps game on mac?

by true i mean there are basically no marathon fans

Oh yeah, that's true.

All the marketing so far (like the ARGs) have that marathon spirit, so they are being consistent.

So sick of furfag shit. This game looks like something I will enjoy watching fail.

Dance for me trannys and SJWs. Your DEI fag shit that leads to failure is some of the best entertainment around.

And I don't have to do anything AHahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

it’s all so tiresome

They're alright but honestly the level design isn't that great. The big reason everyone actually remembers Marathon is that their terminals you interact with for progression and switches, or even in secrets and the like, were basically a small sci-fi novel's worth of plot with a ton of interesting ideas bouncing around. Since Doom was basically only a step above "arcade" in design at the time, this other game series actually having an extensive plot with recurring characters was a huge deal.

IP rape will continue until it stops being profitable (never)

looks fucking trash
lmao

True, I genuinely enjoyed destiny 2 for 2-3 months

So when this is a massive success and gets a 500k CCU on Steam alone, will you faggot retards finally shut up?

HUMAN MEN

I went through them for the first time last year and adored them, preferred it to Doom even. They have a very distinct art style and combat design and the levels are a lot less abstract than the other big 90's shooters. I think it was reduced to being a cult oddity because of it being on Mac; if they had been on Windows I feel like Marathon as a whole would have carved a way bigger name for itself.

It's not marathon and there's a 99% chance it will be complete shit and a failure.

extraction hero shooter

Wow, it's fucking NOTHING. Bungie is doing their best to accelerate into a death spiral.

the 2023 water has reflections at all

Very impressive. Groundbreaking.

Shut up wartranny

I like animials, I hate blatant attempts to capitalize on my likes with no real substance behind it.

wanting a hero shooter

wanting an extraction shooter

Who's really the tranny here? Don't you have some hambeast to orbit Mercy-main?

I really hope it's not a hero shooter. I can do extraction shooter and that can be cool because of how you can customize yourself, but everyone knows that hero shooters will kill the game.

dumb faggots who think it won't blow up just like Helldivers 2

All Sony needs to do is pay off a fuckton of streamers and it'll make fucking bank like HD2.

Go goon to your shitframe for 20 more hours wartranny

Bungie fans on suicide watch as their entire playerbase flees to a superior game, Warframe.

sony publishes one good game in nearly a decade

wow this tranny game is just like *good game*

Not happening

tranime poster

wartranny

doomer spam

Many such cases

trusting bungie

ever

you fools are going to be so disappointed

...I kinda love how this looks, one of the few points of consistent praise I can give Bungie is their visuals

Bungie cooked with heresy
Bungie will cook with marathon
You doomer trannies just wouldn't get it

no men

afraid to show race of the females

HAHAHA it is so over

the dream levels in Infinity were creepy as shit

Posted the crop by accident

Can't wait for Destiny 3

the stay puft marshmallow man is pissed in the future

the massive destiny 2 titan shoulderpads have somehow made there way into marathon

Imagine caring about any new western release in 2025

i hate multiplayer games and the people who play them so much

Sony gets a cut of the profits. I don't see how that's a bad thing. Full cut from the Sony release. portion cut from the other platforms. More money is more money.

Dunno what you call this aesthetic? But I'm enjoying everything they've shown off for it, it'd be nice to have an extraction shooter that I actually want to fuck with

this is the 202X aesthetic: bright, neon colors and smooth textures to make the most use possible of the fancy lighting shit people are shilling now. unrealistic, highly stylized, yet photorealistic in presentation. a visual clusterfuck from beginning to end

youtube.com/watch?v=WlRM9-Rm34Q

It's just Neotokyo but with the neon colors on everything instead of just being on the signage. Man now I wish I could still play Neotokyo, all the good shooters die young.

see you starside

A FREAKIN FLUFFLY WUFFIE KITTY? IN THE WARZONERINO??

ZOMG ZOOOOMG I <3 CATS

shut up this is always moronic. you'd have to be a woman or a furry to want this in every scenario possible

but what would the ancientfags think??

I don't fucking care and neither should you

Kinda reminds me of injection molded plastic. Like it looks massed produced, cheap and you can find it in colors and shapes everywhere.

It's just Neotokyo

It's neotokyo if neotokyo actually looked good. You are OUT of your mind if you think this isn't objectively better visually speaking

I think Destiny 2.2 will ne better than Marathon

it'd be nice to have an extraction shooter that I actually want to fuck with

I feel like it's fundamentally flawed game mode. It rewards ratting instead of active play and losing all progress after collecting stuff for 20 minutes isn't fun at all. It takes away all the action from FPS and makes failure as bitter and frustrating as possible.

youtube.com/watch?v=vzfdc5KEWAU

generic as fuck

It was apparently ok for Prey which Anon Babble defends

this is crazy

hung around the marathon discord for netgames

this is announced

the copium i saw

it seems to attract cheaters even more than other subgenres of FPS, probably for this exact reason.

Not a chance they are gonna pass up on sales on another platform when they need this to sell.
Probably generated from data of the colonists taken by Durandal
They can't even be bothered to port in D2 raids they took out. WotM is probably the only thing that could salvage D2 in the interim while they figure out what the fuck they are even doing, but it took like 3 support studios to make Rise of Iron, most of those people aren't at Bungie anymore if they ever were and the ones that are left resent it because it wasn't really their content.

Wow, it looks just like the tranny game with the pink cat!

Everyone agrees that Psychoshock would have been a better name but Niggerthesda forced them to use Prey and that (and 0 marketing) largely contributed to the game getting no sales and dying on the metaphorical shelf

Arkane at least made it clear they hated the name; it was going to be a new IP by the name Mimic but Bethesda wanted to re-up their license to the Prey IP. It's a stupid reason, but ultimately the game makes no attempt to skinwalk the original or runback any of stuff Human Head planned for 2. Marathon 4 has some actual Marathon stuff in the trailer; it wants to ride whatever miniscule coattails the original still has and for that it's a substantially more cynical and gay product.

Literally who is the audience for this

blackrock

focus group #82194

ngl this dude looks cool as hell

Neotokyo DOES look visually better. Asset fidelity aside, Neotokyo actually has an aesthetic. It's a near future setting taking a lot of inspiration from the Ghost in the Shell movie but is still unique. Take the Support armor, in Neotokyo the game they're the bulkiest armor class with the fewest movement options. They're lumbering, with a bunch of armor plating but it still looks somewhat realistic. The NSF Support looks like a superheavy SWAT officer, with plate carriers expanded and wrapped around the face-mounted optical display, but the color scheme would be right at home with a police force that has been militarized to deal with an ultranationalist military coup. Because the uniforms are fairly bland, they're instantly recognizable against the bright neon lights and flashy graffiti that characterizes Neotokyo's levels. So it's not only plausible art direction but also good game design.

By contrast, this Marathon game looks like Neotokyo but every class has about 50 pounds of additional sci-fi greebling bolted on. And the armor itself looks like they randomized the color pallets. The heavily armored guy in white with a red/black visor basically has Space Marine pauldrons and the guy behind him looks like he's carrying a camera rig on his head. Realism isn't necessarily an absolute good and Bungie has been known to make use of more out-there sci-fi aesthetics but Neotokyo absolutely nails it's art design. And I sincerely doubt a PVP extraction shooter from modern Bungie (that will also have cosmetic microtransactions out the ass) will manage to do the same.

thegamepost.com/marathon-traditional-hero-shooter-format-bungie/

select a character that comes with an ability

everything else is just whatever you want to put on top of that character for gearing

Can we just axe hero-style shit entirely? Why can't I just be a Security Officer knockoff of my own making?

blue blood

CHINA GAME ALERT

prey 2006 > prey

fully modeled asshole

plastic armor with packaging symbols and motion capture marks

This game's art style is the antithesis of cool

when was the last time you saw any science fiction designs that looked inspired at all

NTA but for recent stuff I really liked a lot of the new suit/enemy designs for Metroid Dread. The scanner robots had great visual/audio design in general, they move exactly like you'd expect an exploration robot to move but in the context of the game it comes across as extremely menacing/unnerving. The Xenoblade series, SMT4, 13 Sentinels, Nine Sols, and Armored Core 6 also had some stand out designs though I guess you could argue if all of these are actually sci-fi.

Why are they using the Marathon name for multiplayer slop despite everyone associating the name with Singleplayer.

and for once cheap plastic was actually the intention and not a side effect of modern graphics

Me :D

I remember when all the Bungie devs came out of a meeting before Lightfall released tweeting about how much they cooked

Kinda reminds me of injection molded plastic.

They're mass produced combat androids so pretty sure that's intentional.

Soon my brothers.

it's just a fucking cat in a video game you sperg

its cool as hell imo, it just more inspired by Y2K scifi aesthetic with modern flourishes rather than grungy 90s look of the original.

I don’t know what an extraction shooter is. Like Blackhawk Down?

metroid dread looks better than this

absolute tastelet

the lead artist on Twitter was stating GITS mwas a source of inspiration for the visual alongside Sportswear...I really hope they put out an art book for this game

youtu.be/BOB6lvI3Y8c?si=FY1YYe0txC09zmET

this game is gonna surprise A LOT of people

You and/or squad of players starts somewhere on a map with the gear you bring into a drop, try to grab loot and items along the way with perhaps major central objectives of big payouts and rewards somewhere in the map, try to grab what you can and then extract. Other teams are on the map trying to do the same thing and have full intent to kill you for your loot, some of these games have NPCs that are either hostile inherently or can be played up faction-wise. What you manage to grab goes to your locker to be able to afford or equip for the next run, and the cycle continues until you're satisfied with what you've got for a while; dying equals the loss of everything you immediately have on you.

why
does
the
cat
have
eye
liner
and
a
butt
hole
?

theres fuckin
pink cats
on lh'owon

For attracting human men, of course.

It's funny too because if you really pay attention to the art of the original you can see how we got from there to what we're looking at now

this is multiplayer only?

A butthole.

I like that one of the classes is literally just Matoko

i mean
what the fuck

I can't agree, metroid looks the same as it always has along with those other things you mentioned. it all just looks like japanese mecha which is played out since the 90's.

Damn, that sounds really cool but stressful. Thanks for the explanation

wasn't this going through development hell? What sort of fucked up end product are they going to shit out you figure?

Yeah the thing is Bungie was embracing anime inspired aesthetics pretty far back this game just kinda goes full force with it also just trying to be cutting edge with aesthetic language that is becoming popular nowadays rather than just doing the whole military/heavy industrial look again ala Halo and the original Marathon games honestly this aesthetic has the potential to be huge.

Calm down dicksuckula you don't have to defend the billion dollar company just because you're addicted to destiny

It reminds me of Designers Republic. The initial showing didn't feel strong, but this is much more confident and better presented.

Makoto if she ugly and trans

I actually like the aesthetic, but absolutely hate extraction shooters and the idea of them puppeting around Marathon's corpse.

puppeting around Marathon's corpse.

OH NOOOOO NOT MARATHONG
Faggot.

Retard discovers cats have buttholes IRL.

designers republic has too much style for that, look at their wipeout section

It's hard to say what it's going to be called in the future. Lot of GITS vibes thoughbeit

seems to be combining quite few modern and early 2000s aesthetics, the ending of the trailer where the text pops-up seriously reminds me of those old ambient Adult Swim and MTV bumpers they would play back then.

I just wish the art was more textured

they don't wave them in your face in real life though

You have never met a cat.

It's just a colorful rip of Neotokyo

Why didn't Bungie just make their own nu-Doom and make a gorillion dollars

inb4 floaty outdated dogshit that somehow manages to be worse than Halo and Destiny PvP or even worse plays like yet another CoD derivative where you're literally just playing CoD but uhm everybody's an ugly tranny nigger and you can slide :D like Apex

they could've literally made the real Marathon 3

pvp extraction shooter

I physically rolled my eyes

Here's to more layoffs!

they couldn't scam Sony out of billions if they did that lol

god we can only hope

they cooked with this one chat

Destiny + Destiny 2 were the biggest dad gamer games

how so?

They were hired to make a live service game. That's what Sony wants out of them, nothing else. Bungie's purchase was literally nothing more than a spiteful "fuck you" towards Microsoft acquiring ABK, in the midst of their frenzied Jim Ryan "WE GOTTA HAVE A LIVE SERVICE" insanity.

Oh great. Invisibility

Bungie has live service game

releases an other live service game

to compete with their own live service game

yeah wtf?
why not just add an extraction shooter mode to the game instead?
go the fortnite route

and they 'finished' their main live service game to gradually tone down content towards maintenance mode to funnel everything into this shit, too. if this doesn't cash out, it's studio shutdown levels of catastrophic.

Who plays extraction shooters, why this shit is so popular?

cheaters, mainly. They're going to regret courting this userbase just watch

Are they really?
Seems like a niche genre.

Sony bought Bungie also as a consultancy agency on how to run successful live service models, not only to make them a Playstation exclusive GAAS. You are right about them being spiteful about it however.

reminding me of what's happening with path of exile right now

kill your golden goose chasing another possible golden goose

what a fucking shitshow
i do
tarkov is fun

Extraction is just a buzzword for deathmatch with items. It's nearly meaningless. It's not popular either every single game that has the word extraction in its description has failed except Tarkov because the games in question are unfinished and they're just trying to sell on that buzzword. Tarkov is milsim and that's why it works for its audience.

I DONT CARE SHOW ME FAIRGAME$

Tarkov is milsim and that's why it works for its audience.

tarkov also has an insane amount of content, items, quests, polish
its actually pretty sad how little content other shooters have compared to it

So how is this "Marathon" in anything but name?

zombie bungie who spent the last 15 years making fuckall will be dissolved soon

GOD i wish

It's a video game not IRL. It's not even a real cat in-universe.

lmfao is this the latest woke cope over concord?

Extraction is just a buzzword for deathmatch with items. It's nearly meaningless.

that's such a dumb reductionist statement, it's clearly a unique sub genre of FPS deserving of a classification.

I appreciate it, very maximalist

not Anon Babble fags that have a hate boner for every single multiplayer game

Extraction is just a buzzword for deathmatch with items.

not really
some of them are
have a look at tarkov transits, or how you get into labyrinth etc.

its because they are poor, casuals and have no friends
of course they hate multiplayer games lol

Yeah again it's because publishers won't fund anything that isn't already a meme even though it's retarded to think that contractors will compete with a product that's both first-to-market and years ahead. Big budget FPS games are a completely stagnant category of fat slob financiers waiting for somebody else to make something they can easily pay somebody to try copying. Riot has made a billion dollar business from sitting around fisting themselves until Valve make something they can copy with their army of overpaid californians.

Where is the Marathon? What about this shit is Marathon?
Just make it it's own IP if it's not actually going to be Marathon, bungie you pussy fucks.

Tarkov has it's audience because it had it's first mover advantage that allows it to squeeze it's competitors out. It's how Fortnite beat PubG-- Fort was on consoles and mobile first and Pubg for a long time wasn't because it was an unoptimized shitheap before fading into irrelevancy.

It's not because Tarkov has impressive gameplay or content, it doesn't, it just happened to be in the right place at the right time to soak up it's audience.

What is that top texture from? It's not a regular Marathon texture

It's not because Tarkov has impressive gameplay or content, it doesn't

it does though

Extraction is just a buzzword for deathmatch with items.

Wow, so every fps befofe cod was an extraction shooter?

It's not because Tarkov has impressive gameplay or content

tarkov has gun autism and inventory management the likes of which no other game is trying to do. imo it has impressive gameplay

t's how Fortnite beat PubG-- Fort was on consoles and mobile first and Pubg for a long time wasn't because it was an unoptimized shitheap before fading into irrelevancy.

No it's because Fortnite was free and had bright cartoon visuals to appeal to kiddies that's really it PUBG was already a hit on PC by the point Fortnite BR showed up.

teaser trailer for a teaser trailer

very cool

youtube.com/watch?v=unNRkSko9wQ
when was the last time you actually looked at tarkov

shuffling around jpgs in a menu is hardly gameplay that would be worth mentioning if it was any game other than Tarkov, the inventory management is beyond putrid dogshit.

Nah Fairgame$ never had any hope. Concord got hundreds of millions of dollars at the outset simply because so much of its staff was ex-Bungie. Sony specifically bought Bungie because they thought Destiny was doing better than it actually was(indeed it became more obvious why Microsoft and Activision let them go) and that they had some secret ingredient that would magically crank out a half dozen more successfull live service games.
Now they're $3 billion in the hole, Destiny 2 is in decline, and Marathon is basically do-or-die before Sony activates the performance clause and starts gutting the place for copper wire.

cat sex
that is all
okay I'mma head out

thats fair. you either get it or you dont. you dont get it. youre not the only anon itt getting filtered by interesting and unique designs.

the greatest game of all time is literally just stacking jpgs correctly

listen, games arent always about realism

conveniently ignoring the gun autism part

tarkov's gun modding inspired cod's gunsmith, and gunsmith was copied by literally every fps made after mw2019
tarkov clearly had some novel gameplay/mechanics

they copied tarkov

made like 4 attachments and said that'll do

played ghost recon breakpoint recently
has a decent amount of attachments, 70% of them give no stats at all
the last 30% give random stats with one being always the best generally
oh and they have 7 something suppressors and they ALL have the same stats
what's the fucking point

It looks cool.

pink pussy

heh

Honestly curious if that's what you said about the Concord trailer.

Marathon won
Doomers lost

I love defective GPU jumpscares!

lame ass v tard

yes

Ok, just wondering.

I can't wait to see bungie fuck up again.

kek are they doing secret easter eggs like halo 3? No one will care to decipher shit from nu bungie

something something sci-fi franchise that I grew up with
something something corpse paraded around in the form of a dead-on-arrival extraction shooter
something something two nickels

Another neon colored f2p live service slop aimed at zoomers.

You're comparing this

Ah boy

“This won’t feel like when you just choose a hero and then get whatever weapon/abilities are assigned to them.”

Me who's tired of games either looking Unreal Engine slop #57734 or Indie PS2 aesthetic slop #57437

It’s from the makers of Destiny 2, looks and controls is all it will have.

Not destiny players, since it siphoned damn near everything from it.

whilst the aesthetic/theme is kino everything else is going to be dogshit isn't it? I'm really hoping it wont but looking at the disaster of extraction shooters it might be.
I just want marathon kino.

i love how all the characters are just haloman and asian women

everyone associating the name with Singleplayer

No one even knew what the old marathon even was before the current one's reveal

Yea the 5 mfs that played Marathon will be real confused

I truly hope this shit puts them under for good, it would be so hilariously poetic if these niggers kill themselves burying a dead IP even further

I'm not even memeing, is there a fucking market for extraction shooter shit anymore?

It depends, yes and no. The current version on the market? No, not at all. It's bad game design. But Hunt Showdown has shown a sliver of a good Extraction shooter that needs more refinement. So either this shit is going to be great or complete trash, no inbetween.

I'm not even memeing

Even PUBG is still in the top 5 most played games on steam consistently. Much like sports-ball games, they are extremely popular. Just not around here.

holy shit the difference between the last trailer.

Probably. I don't get it. This is the company that made Halo, they know the formula of single player campaign with a multiplayer mode works and yet all they give us is escape from tarkov?

Since they keep doing those ARGs I still believe there's a chance they announce 'JK there's actually a single player mode' as a result of one. I mean it's Marathon right? Imagine if they remade Doom in 2016 without a fun single player mode, it would've been so shit.

If it was a nuDOOM-like with a arena multiplayer element to it instead of being Extractionslop I'd be mildly excited, but alas

Yes, there's a market for almost everything. The genre just needs a good one, albeit it's probably never going to reach battle royale numbers.. People would still be playing Tarkov if the devs somehow stopped cheaters, even moreso if he released on Steam (not even a Steamdrone, it's just the truth).

steamdb.info/app/3065800/charts/

Let's see how popular Marathon gets after the presentation on Saturday. The most popular extraction shooter right now is Hunt Showdown I think, and that has 30k CCU.

That would take too much effort for modern Bungie.

People freaking out over

extraction shooter

Like it's some massively overdone genre that's known for being bad is the absolute fakest shit. There's like 2 or 3 games in the genre of any note at all and they play vastly different.
I swear it's all either people who bounced off Tarkov for the many understandable reasons to not like it but are autistic and blame it on it being an extraction shooter instead of a russian scam game, or pure faggots trying way too hard to fit in.

Hunt IS the bad game design distilled. There's no tension, no gradient between going in ready to kill or going in to rat, nothing organic about how you play. No depth to the loot mechanics to make you care about shit you find, no getting surprised and killed by the AI elements, nothing. Even Dark and Darker got this. For both it and Tarkov, the extraction shooter part is baked into the game fundamentally.
Hunt is literally just an okay 1v1-3v3 pvp shooter but you need to spend 10 minutes running towards shit and you lose things when you die. There is literally zero reason for it to be an extraction shooter beyond engagement.

A proper high budget one instead of all the indie slop on offer? Probably.

it's less about being an extraction shooter and more about what it isn't. If Doom 2016 had been announced as a battle royale exclusively it would have been the same responses. Doom and Marathon are very comparable, if you try to ressurect a title like that at least make it as an evolved version instead of completely rewriting the formula.

Found the zoomer.

ITS NOT EVEN BLUE RARE YOU MUPPET
NOW FUCK OFF

I'm pretty sure no one would play "Reading Shooter Rat in the Maze" the game now. Even DOOM 2016 had some major flaws on it's reboot and people to this day hate the shit out of the DOOM remakes. Marathon to survive a current day market needs stopping power, and sadly the schizo story isn't it for a mainline market. So what do you do? Wrap it in an extraction shooter coat of paint and feed it to normies. Pretty sure the game is going to be more PvE over PvP since we still AI and Raids.

I haven't touch Hunt in years, so I used it as a point of reference based on probably 3+ years now. And your right it has no tension, but Tarkov and co have too much. There needs a perfect balance. Now will Bongo be able to figure it out? Probably not or they might do something weird and surprise us. Either way they need to do something different or it won't work

Why not just make a new IP at that point?

no, bungie missed the bus like 10 years ago. Tarkovskis "play" tarkov (cheat), and there really isn't any room in the market for this super niche sweatfest of a game mode.

Unironically the answer is lorefaggotry.

Only real issues is.

This isn't marathon lmao

The cat feels so outrageously forced for "LOOK AT THE QUIRKY CAT GUYS!!! ITS CUDDLING WITH THE DEAD PERSON!!!" it feels exactly like the type of stuff a "gurl gamurr" would lose their minds over.

Not entirely a goner, but those are some red flags imo.

a battle royale is not the same thing as an extraction shooter

Ever since the finals turned out to be the most shilled and forced dogshit game ever I've grown an extreme distaste over "Muh super simple neon bright colors" aesthetic.

Mirror's edge is the only game that I think pulls it off well at all.

nah im good.

Even DOOM 2016 had some major flaws on it's reboot and people to this day hate the shit out of the DOOM remakes

Are you on hallucinogens? What major flaws? Doom 2016 was so good I fear it serves as inspiration for more companies to shit out remakes instead of trying new things. It definitely did the original justice. The other anon typed what I was thinking as I'm typing this but if they don't want to remake anything about marathon other than the fact it's a first person shooter, just make a brand new title.

what, like, durandal is trying to escape therefore he's playing an extraction shooter? lel

Because the suits at either Bungie or Sony were too afraid of pushing out a new IP and wanted to latch it onto an existing one, and they couldn't do it with Destiny. Bungie had three projects rumored. I forgot the name of one (this probably got repurposed to Marathon), Gummy Bears (MOBA), and Payback (idk what this one was but it got canned).

I don't know what an extraction shooter is. I don't want an explanation thanks.
Kind of disappointed they wasted performance on bush. Not where I want to play in a futuristic game. I don't like cats. Colours looked good in an older preview. Multiplayer isn't my idea of a good time, especially PvP. Joypads remove the possibility of gameplay, if shooting was hard it just wouldn't be fun. All that's left, all it could be was sightseeing. And they fucked that up with Forrest instead of futuristic clean cityscapes. And Asian heads. Don't want that shit either. Dumb helmets with aerodynamic tails. Fucked. Would have been nice if they saved on performance, just colours instead of textures. Like a machine city. Combination machine and artificial bio. Trying to get it right, give themselves a way of being human, getting it right enough experiments don't want to be retired or replaced, fighting for survival, organised and aided by what they remain connected to. Or more consideration into them being best, and then unsatisfied with it, culling eachother to receive more care. Addicted to risk, something they haven't had for hundreds of years. Feeling human by being venerable. Or have a mission, something wrong to fix, humanoid forms compatible with what was left to be resumed by humans. Decide to populate places themselves so don't lose them, don't lose what they are meant to be. Experience it for the first time, it left by humans, training to be people.

Don't need shooting, because controllers sans lightguns are shit at it. Or synthetic avatars for people AI etc indistinguishable from eachother, each trying to seem like the other to avoid being taken away and buried under simulation to extract qualities. Or opposite want more influence. Or don't want to be left out too different. Normal thing being shooting, hard to stop, a fad attributed to the furthest advancement got.

Likely some shit tied into the new destiny expansion where they have to basically create a new story from scratch because they ended the old one.
Within this game itself it's probably primarily leela involved though.

looks like fire
