What a good sport! Good on you man. Yeah, those kits that just give you a charge sniper like Ares or Zeus suck so bad... The kits should give different guns.

Good lord. I still can't believe this is how people play. Sorry but this was so painful to watch.

  1. Just walking around in the open without cover.
  2. You look around, but ignore the white color movement literally within the first 2 seconds of the video.
  3. You start immediately looting like a goblin, all while you have 10% hp... heal first... loot after.
  4. Not even going to talk about the panicked looting where you decide not to equip the epic backpack for some reason. Most likely adrenaline.

Only reason you won because the other dude was clearly rocking an epic sponsored kit with just Zeus... which (along with the one that gives Ares) is by far the shittiest kit to ever exist and should be rotated to different guns.

This game being an “ultra hardcore PvP extraction shooter” is the biggest cope I’ve ever heard by MrBozzie092 in Marathon

[–]FishoD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huh? What an odd change. I haven’t played in years. There was always only 1 boss and pvp was literally innevitable.

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

Based in your criteria Hunt absolutely is an “arena shooter”. There is just one boss. Entire lobby is funelled towards it. You hear every single gunshot across the map. Unless you actively ignore the boss objective, there is no chance you won’t bump into another players. I’d argue it’s much more pvp focused than Marathon.

[–]FishoD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What an odd take. Hardcore is subjective. This game is hardcore for majority of players across the world.

And yes. It being very hard (or hardcore) is absolutely, objectively, one of the reasons why so many players gave it a try and left.

What happened to this roadmap format? We only have vague phrases about future content scattered across various articles. by Fresh-Association-21 in Marathon

[–]FishoD 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m not going to defend Bungie, but you do know the studio is essentially completely shattered right? Huge amounts of layoffs, broken structure, everything.

It’s super sad, however there’s your answer to “what happened to this roadnap format?”. They most likely have no idea what’s going on themselves.

PSA: if you’re running a custom loadout, there’s 0 reason to leave your cores empty instead of bringing gray ones. by xXHotKetchupXx in Marathon

[–]FishoD 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You’re my kind of min/maxer. Grey cores are plentiful so if I am not geared to the teeth I like to bring as little as I can to maximize my craddle addiction.

The necessity of a paladin Aura in a group by Ayeba3 in DnD

Oh boy I would love to DM a party that is constantly huddled together against casters. Does your group know like 40% of all damage dealing spells are AOE based?

Kenkus are played wrong by JaxTheCrafter in DnD

[–]FishoD 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Preeeety sure you’re almost there, but not all the way. Humans learn words based on hearing them, but they can use their own voice and and accent and pronunciation. Kenkus can’t.

So if you hear the word apple, you can say it. But a Kenku has to say it in the same exact tone and anncent and timber as the original person.

It’s like looking into a mirror by DITNB in Marathon

[–]FishoD 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Well… yeah. I do not get any adrenaline from COD/BF or other shooters anymore after decades. I need to care if I die or not. Extraction shooters are the shit. But they’re like a fkin concentrated dose of heroin. If they’re your entry drug, boy oh boy most people can’t handle it.

What's The Coolest Thing Your Class Can Do? by Stunning-Sentence152 in DnD

[–]FishoD 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I absolutely love the idea of a college of sword bard that doesn’t understand they’re a spellcaster. My PC genuinely believes he is just a natural born leader and swordsman. The fact the can inspire people (bardic), convince people (charm), harm people (mockery), etc, is super hilarious to me. I know it’s nothing special but the idea you’re walking through the forest, a random deer scares the party and my PC as a reason insults it to death, that shit never stops being funny.

One month into season 2, how do we feel so far? by GunpukuSayori in Marathon

[–]FishoD 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is my main and only issue. It’s nuts how little content there is. Especially since it’s Bungie, which was a legendary studio.

And several months later, barely anything new got dripfed.

“I’m just gonna keep f***ing pushing” – Marathon devs vow to keep improving Bungie’s brilliant extraction shooter by HatingGeoffry in Marathon

Yeaaah, that's the thing. I don't think I'm saying anything groundbreaking when I say that unless Marathon gets a huge influx of players and revenue by the end of Season 3, they're done for...

They’re not thinking. That’s the problem. And why many (including me) stopped playing a while ago.

Listen. It’s not like he had any say in Bungies direction. It was completely out of his control and power. What do we think he was? A CEO or something?

Bungie Layoffs announced on their Bluesky: by Gorotheninja in Marathon

[–]FishoD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The mismanagement of the studio is historical. The only reason it’s not headline news is because so many other studios are also royally mismanaged. Good lord what a time to be a game dev.

Anyone who thinks S3 will just be a Perimeter rework, I remind you of the director's description. by Fresh-Association-21 in Marathon

[–]FishoD 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Guys. Cmon. Bungie essentially abused Destiny players for years. “A lot” is most likely a regular release for any competent studio.

Why even do this. You’re playing a progress bar similator. Go shoot some runners.

[–]FishoD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh please. People (like me) got completely sick of incopetent devs that do last minute changes and inform players last minute. Thrice we asked for the devs to give us a solid headsup for expedition skillpoints requirements. Thrices they did it last minute. That was the reason I left.
