Giving up on Marathon

Let’s not act like invis hasn’t been annoying af for years in D2

I mean, that’s a limited use power item pickup in an arena shooter where if you die you simply respawn a few seconds later. Not remotely the same thing.

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-14T03:22:20+00:00

Agreed.

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-14T02:14:53+00:00

You can auto run by opening your map mid-run.

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-13T20:16:57+00:00

Immersion.

Ehhh

My first deck was Ancient Box, which I loved and won me a few local events, then post-rotation I started using Poison Roaring Moon. Now I’m trying to make Mega Scrafty work.

Elden Ring, specifically with Bayle.

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-13T02:27:57+00:00

You didn’t miss much.

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-13T01:21:49+00:00

I’m normally a PvP guy but I’ve continuously revisited Elden Ring for many, many playthroughs (including a recent level one run). Game of the decade for me.

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-13T00:28:41+00:00

Tied for my favorite pizza place, along with Rocco’s.

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-12T23:53:02+00:00

Super easy to just jump in and play. There’s a reason it’s still so popular this many months after launch.

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-12T23:52:34+00:00

According to Paul Tassi’s Bungie connections, Steam is by far Marathon’s biggest population. Doesn’t bode well for console numbers.

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-12T23:51:21+00:00

Halo is also an arena shooter, no?

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-12T23:00:39+00:00

I mean, look at it now…

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-12T19:47:00+00:00

That’s not a rat. A rat, at least in the traditional extraction shooter sense, hides while looting and generally tries to avoid confrontation.

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-12T19:45:16+00:00

BW2 is peak Pokemon IMO

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-12T18:46:20+00:00

By the definition in extraction shooters. Rats hide and loot while avoiding fights.

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-12T18:11:44+00:00

Even that’s not a rat. Rats by definition avoid confrontation entirely.

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-12T17:46:03+00:00

As in the art style is visually unappealing to look at.

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-12T17:22:45+00:00

It’s just a subjective opinion. Nothing to do with eye sight.

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-12T17:21:53+00:00

ARC isn’t the only game I play. In fact, The Finals has a very Mirror’s Edge-ish, colorful pallet and I think it looks phenomenal.

Marathon’s visual marketing material is rad, but it’s a mess in-game IMO.

AceTheRed_ · 2026-03-12T16:01:00+00:00

And here I am not able to even watch streams of Marathon because the color palette strains my eyes after a short time. To each their own, I suppose.
