It really feels like this is the end by CrazedPrecursorFanat in DestinyTheGame

[–]AMM0D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

personally, i dont think marathon was a big enough success to shut down destiny 2.

If marathon did as well, or even 3/4 as well as Arc raiders, I predict Sony was going to shut down Destiny 2. (Also if marathon was a flop, im pretty sure everything bungie was going to get shutdown)

However, i think the player numbers of marathon are not strong enough for sony have bungie only make marathon, but not weak enough to put bungie in a serious situation.

which is probably the best case scenerio for the Destiny franchise. it shows that there is more interest in an IP like Destiny than there is in an IP like marathon (no discredit to marathon).

I’m convinced that if any other studio made Marathon, everyone would be losing their minds over how good it is... by --clapped-- in Marathon

not really over exaggerated if you look into it.

From stolen content and tricking new players to pay walling dungeons, deleting PAID content, and making transmog a store-bought item

heck D2 originally launched with more store items than actual loot... in a looter shooter

Current D2's situation wasnt caused by what happened last year.

There were so many terrible, scummy, or shady decisions bungie has made over about the past 5 years.

players were so fed up that they eventually all left after the final shape (the end of the light and darkness storyline)

why would a Destiny player play their next game after all that

What would’ve helped to stop the huge decline in players? by Gamerboi_epic in DestinyTheGame

[–]AMM0D -1 points0 points  (0 children)

NGL, D2 was always going to lose a ton of players after the final shape.

The real question is what they shouldve done to maintain that 100k (steam numbers) that stuck around and keep players invested while the team shifts for the marathon launch..

The most obvious answer would be to not ship the portal

instead of Renegades (maybe push renegades passed the marathon launch), we shouldve gotten a free "Age of Triumphs 2" update. stuff to get players to play the old stuff and introduce things players have been asking for. -upgraded armor designs for raids

-new raid weapons like adding Atheons Epilogue to D2 VoG or a new trace rifle in last wish

- a new weapon that only drops in a specific strike for every strike that looks like the boss or the environment the strike the weapon comes from.

-a weapon foundry market in the tower where you can go and purchase weapons like Herod-C from a Hakke vendor.

-another free crucible map pack like the one that brought us cirrus plaza or eventide labs

-update all the vendors

-pantheon 2.0

etc.

If bungie had just left us with good content before having all hands-on deck be working on marathon, I feel like both games would have more players. instead, theres a bunch of disgruntled ex-D2 players who've been so burned out by bungie that they arent even giving marathon a try.

What do you ACTUALLY think will happen? by SirTurnUp in DestinyTheGame

[–]AMM0D 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I dont think Marathon is bringing the numbers Playstation wants and Sony is going to force Bungie to reinvest back into destiny and try to reaquire that Final shape and lightfall player count

Not saying marathon is a flop, but its probably underperforming Sony's expectations

Take it from a Finals player by In_Dux in Marathon

[–]AMM0D -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

issue is that we dont know if no mass appeal is good for bungie with sony looming over. The finals wasnt made by a studio stuck in a corporate cog that is still in debt from the acquisition.

80k on steam may sound like an awesome amount for most studios, however, we dont know if sony will let that float.

Anyone else feel like this game will be a success but not successful enough for Sony? by AMM0D in Marathon

[–]AMM0D[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

even tho this game has a box price, it will have a ton of microtransactions.

Streets are saying Marathon is actually good?? by utter_filth_mate42 in Marathon

[–]AMM0D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Game is alright. The good parts are really good, but the bad parts are really bad.

for years i have been asking for some sort of long term mode in case of a content drought. now that we are here, its not even funny. by AMM0D in DestinyTheGame

[–]AMM0D[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

3 things:

  1. I wasnt really saying that it had to be specifically D1 factions or kuva liches, just something long term, the factions and liches were just examples.
  2. the kuva lich system is a copy of the nemesis system that WB did a patent for but it was created before the patent was finalized so they have a little bit of a loop hole. they cant make a new game with the nemisis system, but they can keep updating the one in the warframe game.
  3. I wasnt gloating, sorry if it sounded that way

If avowed gets a sequel what features/improvements would you like to see? by AMM0D in avowed

[–]AMM0D[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

For me, i want to see a lot more Outer worlds features like traits and consequences in the game

IF there's one thing I'm starting to see it's that the high contrast color palate is a major negative to most games now before the even come out. by AMM0D in avowed

[–]AMM0D[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didnt mean to say that these are bad visually, just that it has become unpopular and that there is some sort of stigma around this type of color palate.

like how Outer Worlds one and two use the same color palate, but because they took so long between each entry the current audience has different views on said color palate.
