How can you like a game before it's out?

stolen assets

I was a big fan of the artist they ripped off.

Go support their work.

The game could be a 10/10 and I would still boycott it just because of this. This is gonna sound faggy, but in this age of AI slop and boardroom drafted art we need to support actual artists at all costs. I actually started to make it a habit to buy tracks from small indie musicians I like of bandcamp, even if I have 0 use for the files.

We can't vote with our wallets against the big companies because they are backed by billions, but we can vote with our wallets to support people that do good shit.

really like BR GAASlop with microtrannies

acquire better taste you fucking retard

You have shit taste and should be removed from the gene pool asap

Get over it. Once AI replaces middle management we will have reached the pinnacle of human advancement. It's computerization of the industrial era just for artists.

factually stated FTFY

your fault for enjoying shit

at least concord looked next gen and wasn't stolen, now that was a underrated gem.

Then you'd love arc raiders a 100 times more

Post proof that you played the alpha, or your thread is a crock of shit.

Congrats for supporting the raping and misuse of dead IPs and propagating that at the end of the day you're just yet another whale willing to waste money on a GaaS made by people whose only purpose in life is to make money for someone rather than making a product they're passionate about that they believe in.

Wrong nigger. That just means you like a game's aesthetics and how it might play. Not the game itself.

community declares it dead before it's even out

Internet hate wagon is like getting sprayed by a skunk, it's hard to remove once you have the funk on you.
It's sad but it's what happens, it spares nothing - both the bad and the good

Arc raiders was complete shit, I was in the beta and it was legitimately the most boring game I've played all year.
You're basically tied to some horrendous tps gameplay avoiding random drones flying around and that's it..

Marathon is much better, I prefer Fps either way

game

???

What's the point of just making constant threads about this shit?
It's not even worth the effort to mock.

Nah fuck 'em, More big macs and less furry art.

They don't work, they are unemployed and haven't published anything new in years.

post yfw unironically concord 2.0

This somehow looks worse than BattleBit fotm battlefield copycat

Only people who didn't play Arc say that it's better than the rest.
It's a VERY boring slog that incentivizes camping a fuckton since it's 3rd person, on top of having an endgoal gear in the 10 hour mark if you're playing solo. By that point, you can craft the heaviest armour and a lvl 3 toro and 1 shot everyone while instead they need to magdup you to kill you.

all this reverse shilling actually has me interested in the game desu

Is that for real? if so I'm laffin m8

Be artist

Make kinda interesting neon-cyberpunk artworks

Some billion dollar studio contracts out key artwork for a game they're making

One of their lazy designers literally copy-pastes my work

Haven't been working for 5 years

Busy pissing and moaning about how hard it is to be an artist while doing literally nothing all day

See literally copy-paste of my art in a game

Post it on twitter

Say that I'm too busy and cbf to sue

Still unemployed, but making a coffee in the morning and chilling all day is so exhausting.

Internet kicks up the biggest fuss known to man

Pretty funny. What a faggot she is. She's absolutely in the right and Marathon is suffering so much because of this, but she sounds like a lazy welfare kween.

It's a shame desu, I thought the teaser trailer looked really cool. The whispery voice reading Ozymandias was great and Bungie's shooter mechanics are the best in the business, but charging for the base game is going to kill this game.

hear new Marathon game is coming up

look it up

extraction shooter

I am happy it's dead on arrival

Artist is a tranny which explains why they are so lazy and retarded.

BASED. Trannies will NOT like that one.

My name is Ozymandias, Kang of Kangs:
Look on my works, ye Whitey, and despair!

don't undersell it, $3.6 billion is worth at least 9 Concords.

whats so absurd about this situation is that they've been making the game for the past 5 years now using stolen art as key-art for the entire project and fucking NOBODY NOTICED.

its concord 2.0

at this point im not sure if i should laugh at Sony or start to pity them.

823fyghh.jpg - 345x336, 54.07K

everything about this game looks fucking dogshit.

blessed trips of truth

Never pity a megacorp

No shilling or Anon Babble faggotry meme shit. I've enjoyed the aesthetics and the trailer was cool but Arc Raiders came out half way through and hit the last nail on the coffin. Which I don't think is fair because Arc Raiders pivoted from pve to pvpve after, presumably because they realized there's not much tension or reason to get better guns for robots that aren't really that crazy to fight with the guns. So to me, it seemed they already had a completed game and then through bacon on top which was great. Marathon however is stuck with being a pvp game first and that can mess up map design and immersion. Oh and NOW they're considering pve too oops.
Just a bummer they fucked it all up because the CEO or investors (both?) are absolutely the most retarded people alive. Look at Embark though, Nexon just left them alone and youtube is FILLED with is "Arc Raiders goated?" or "Not even in beta and it's the greatest thing ever"

I don't get why they didn't just put human NPC enemies in the game, like Tarkov. I like PvP but I don't always want to play it when I'm tired after work. It would be cool to have 2 characters on 2 different servers, one for PvP and one for chill PvE where I get to only use half my brain if I feel like it

hire valorant devs

game has stolen assets

lmao once a Riot employee always a Riot employee

Looks nothing like the original Marathon, I'm glad it flopped before coming out.
also it looks like garbage.

AI won't replace middle management. They're legal leverage that fails upwards. The world in their heads looks like them and a legion of AI-enhanced jeets.
But I think people are massively misunderstanding what AI actually is, it's not meant to be the end-all slop generation tool they're shilling it as, that's part of the psyop, it's an excuse to throw slop your way and tell you to "fix it" so you can earn less and lose any bargaining power. It's not actually bringing value beyond devaluing labor for its own sake. The only real answer to this is killing big corporations and normalizing entrepreneurship.

Nexon basically poached the guys who made battlefront 2 and BF1/BFV, and a high level EA executive after BFV's launch went bust and formed Embark which is now looking like a top tier studio.

Bungie meanwhile has run their business like a frathouse and suffered serious brain drain for decades and it's coming to bite them in the ass.

I was wondering if Marathon or Arc Raiders were going to have pve only maps after you've gathered enough materials perhaps? The most insane thing I saw was Marathon was gonna have RANKED modes in Marathon? Why split up the player base for a game that already had poor reception when they showed it to Tarkov players a year or so ago? But I get you, I don't wanna try to take down the Queen only to get some greedy rats sitting around watching. Believe it or not, I enjoy video games and was actually hoping for Marathon to be its own thing and Arc Raiders be its own thing. A "holy shit two cakes" moment.

high TTK = more interactions between players = more opportunities for skill expression

Give your head a shake, you CS tranny.

we need to support actual artists at all costs

Not really. There's already more entertainment available than a person can digest in a lifetime, or in ten lifetimes. All the best music has already been made. Cinema is exhausted and broken. The classics of literature won't be surpassed by some zoomer or millenial putting his worthless musings to the page. Enjoying art today means making do with what we already have, because there's fuck all to look forward to.

I really liked the original trilogy they were my first FPS games

This just isn't true. There will always be creatives pushing boundaries and creating cool new stuff. You just won't find that cool new stuff being made by billion dollar corporations who are fixated on milking money out of the franchises they bought. Stop consuming "franchises" and clamoring for the 7th sequel/prequel/reboot in a 20 year old IP. Start looking at the low budget stuff made by solo developers and small teams. I bought The Precinct instead of Doom:Capeshit Edition and I'm having a great time with it. Give me the genre you like, and I'll find a good game you've never heard of but you'd probably enjoy

wah wah they changed the art style!

Its called taking a risk.
Imagine if valve didnt take a risk with tf2 new direction

So does Nexon just let them to their own devices or do they send someone over for quality control to make sure they're making progress? Bungie needs to tighten leashes and get some professionalism back. Fuck frat house behavior. Work.
I'm also an Embark fanboy since I played The Finals since the open beta but I've had to sit with "Dead game?" everywhere I went and even my own friends wouldn't even give a FREE game. I've had to look for finance reports to see if The Finals was meeting expectations or below. It was apparently doing "as intended" and that felt hopeful that Nexon isn't filled with investors that have unrealistic expectations? Like is Nexon so greedy they knew exactly or approximately where the Embark dart would land?

Same here, and I say this as a fan of the original Marathon trilogy. It sure is difficult having good taste in 2025.

The art style of the game is VERY based and I could care less about an intern using placeholder pinterest inspiration in his texture sheet. Cry me a river, redditors.

good morning saar

She

My brother in Christ, seek help.

Nexon like all Korean publishers is super nasty, look at how they sued Ironmace and how they fucked over The Last Descendant. I honestly fear for The Finals and Arc Raiders just by virtue of being owned by Nexon.

morning retard

what'd they do to the last descendant?

Last Descendant was dead on arrival in my opinion, I'm not for warframe grinding "ultimate" character unlocking garbage. I played what I could until my friends dipped away from that too. Americans just want their time appreciated more or want the carrot sooner? I grew up with maple story and am also a gambling addict so there's that. What happened to Iron Mace is ass and a bad look for Nexon for trying to sue over skeletons, goblins, or whatever they said in that dumb lawsuit. I hope maybe implementing pvp at the last moment helped Embark get away from Nexon's love for whaling or boosts. You'd think after the flop that happened with DFO (literally one of the biggest and highest grossing mmos) just didn't do well in NA for some reason??? Totally not Nexon USA fucking shit up so bad. I also play DFO now until I got bored with running my head against C3 Venus or whatever she is. Fingers crossed for Embark and the games, they're seriously the most fun I've had with games in years.

I think I could stomach the character designs if it was a presentation of how you could customize them to look like complete freaks, like what some people do to their Elden Ring characters. Instead it's an intentional, curated design choice meant to be taken seriously as a cogent whole, so it's repulsive.

like the game because you like the art

those are two different things

how retarded are you, of course they noticed and made that decision in the first place

Maybe they should have made an actual Marathon game.

Its more than that. Being a Fortress Forever and TFC enjoyer can be suffering but goddamn TF2 does not scratch the same itch with no grenade jumping.

you just have shit taste

that being said the 2023 had a better looking android girl imo desu

This just isn't true. There will always be creatives pushing boundaries and creating cool new stuff.

Name a single thing. You can't. The age of innovation is over, it is all rehashed slop now. There are no more creatives and it has been that way for a while now. For games in particular, all of the creativity happened very quickly as developers desperately tried to make it in the industry. Many companies failed and it was very competitive. Now, companies make games to maximize profits, and yes, all companies are concerned about their bottom line, for the successful companies it wasn't the driving reason for making games. Slop existed back then, the PS1 and PS2 libraries from western developers are 90% shovelware slop that was chasing profits with no intention, nor ability to be creative. Today, that is nearly every western game developer out there and that is especially true of indieslop, who are only interested in getting rich and famous as quickly as possible. You say you play and enjoy slop, that says more about you than anything else. You are the target demographic, a tasteless, self-absorbed consumer. You assert the existence of "cool new stuff", tell me, what exactly is innovative about The Precinct? It looks very derivative.

nobody

nobody who?
the players? maybe because only a very small handful of people played it before the alpha got released recently (when people found out)
the devs/marathon team? bro more than half of the art desgin team, including the chief, followed the artist they were copy-pasting shit from, they of course knew

it's not even the first time bungie got caught stealing art, it's the FOURTH time (not the fourth time they stolen, the fourth time they got caught) so it's quite clear it isn't a woopsie situation here

Me? I would buy it because it has """stolen""" assets. Lmao fuck copyrights. Anybody should be able to make anything they want. Screw you copyrights squatters.

Only mainstream shit is rehashed slop and that's because normals despise anything beyond what they're used to. It's not a creative problem, it's a consumer problem.

Name a single thing

There is only one Hyper Demon but Black Cocks is up to 7 now. And everyone's trying to make an extraction shooter instead of pushing boundaries not because the ideas aren't there, but because that's not where the money is in the age of Fortnite and Roblox.

I like it too just for the sci-fi angle it's going for - didn't play it myself, but I can understand the critics. Otherwise the gunplay seemed solid, and the building interiors looked really good with the artstyle/lighting. The outside areas however were mostly lazy looking and experimental, if anything the atmosphere otherwise gives off og planetside vibes through the setting.
Some characters look good, some don't and it feels needlessly forced as opposed to clear customization. There's an element of mystery in the game's world which is nice.
I always preferred stuff like tiberium/renegade over red alert/zero hour, or unreal/quake over cod/battlefield. Tarkov for instance looks unimaginative in this way. If this game could just tone down the mix of colors and push for better textures, allow for customization, it should have some potential. They already listened when it came to aim assist.
Arc raiders by comparison seems way better, but could have just had more time in development.

I love when big titles flop it's just heart warming.

t. chatGPT post

Based and Frogpilled.

I get that you want to shit on the game more for the political angle and that's aight man.

helldivers was at its peak and everyone was talking about it

sony kills it with needing a playstation account

sony make concord and it doa

sony buys bungie and destiny 2 dies and marathon becomes doe shortly after marathon with stolen assets

you know a documentary is going to be made about this massive fuck up and its prob still not even done yet kek

Had fun with it. I'm getting the feeling Bungie will kill the game like The Cycle Frontier devs did. Anytime someone from Bungie opens their mouth it's very often a lie.

go back to ripping off trannies on xitter joseph

read that as "i love when big titties flop" and i didn't get it
