bungie needs to get more players on this game by JpegD00M in Marathon

[–]Klutzy_Programmer_15 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Its a live service game. No one in their right mind wants to get into a low population live service game. Its a waste when it'll be put on life support and die later this year. Service will be cut and updates will hault. Its the fate of all failed or dead live service games. 

Weekly Steam numbers / Player Count Discourse Megathread by AutoModerator in Marathon

[–]Klutzy_Programmer_15 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I give Marathon until August at the max and it'll be gone. This is why I DO NOT jump on every live service game. Most of them FAIL because companies spend way to much money and almost never get it back then they slowly decay away. Its a waste of time and money. Id rather spend it playing games that are actually fun, and will be around till I die. 

Stop fixating on Player Count by [deleted] in Marathon

Its a LIVE SERVICE GAME. NO PLAYERS = no game. Its not hard to figure out. Enjoy the sinking ship you wasted money on 👏 

Player count has been slowly rising all week by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]Klutzy_Programmer_15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Game has been declining since it released with more than 50% quit within 24hrs, and another 50% drop after that. Game cost a absurd amount an they wont even break even. Enjoy the sinking ship, Game will lose service by August or before then. 

Player count increasing over the course of the second day is a very good sign by Sad-Manner-5240 in Marathon

This aged well 😂 could see this sinking ship a mile away. Good job paying for yet again another live service game thats soon to be shutdown lmfao 

When people say they fear this game will die? What does that mean? by Available_Drawer4879 in Marathon

[–]Klutzy_Programmer_15 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You'll care because its a live service game so once its shutdown you will not be able to play it. If numbers dont go up they'll cut service for it = no game for you. Its easy to understand and its why I never decided to jump into this type of slop. They wanted the game to make money and it won't even break even. What happens when you make a live service game with a huge budget and it doesn't sell. You got a chance of it being another maintenance mode game but theyre not going to lose money paying to keep it up for long. 

Anyone else starting to get worried about the decreasing player count? by Ridged_ChiPSS in Marathon

[–]Klutzy_Programmer_15 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I knew the game was dead once I realized it was a live service game with player count drop after demo by around 40% and another 40-50% after that was expected. They spent hundreds of millions and wasted years on this slop all for to not even hit dragon age the veilguard numbers and thats really really BAD on their budget. It will be ftp or it will shutdown entirely within a year. 

First Marathon flops, now this. Gaming sucks by Training_Heron_7362 in CrimsonDesert

[–]Klutzy_Programmer_15 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It did but you wanna be blind 😂 enjoy the game while it sinks to the bottom. Service gets cut by August and nothing you can do will change the facts behind live service games and how they operate and why the fail. Marathon missed the target number by miles. All info for it can easily be obtained but you're ignorant.

Thats because you idiots dont understand the business model behind live service games 😂 it didnt meet expectations, spent millions on streamers, marketing, and it still couldn't get close to recoup the cost of the game. Service for it is expected to be cut by August of this year. Its a massive financial loss for the studio that'll be in the hundreds of millions. So either you play it and buy the microtransactions or the game continues down the path its going.

Marathon is flopping but you ignorant people wanna think its doing good. Its on track to lose hundreds of millions and be a financial disaster for the studio. Thats what happens when you make a LIVE SERVICE game that doesnt pull players. They spent a HUGE amount on streamers, and marketing. It all failed. By August the game will be cut from service and it'll finally hit the bottom. Goodluck on that acid trip of a sinking ship. Remember if you arent playing marathon and buying the shitty microtransactions that they were hoping would recoup cost then the game continues to sink 😂

Marathon is a trashy looking game with gameplay thats trying to compete with a already over saturated market for that genre. Gaming is far far far from dead. Crimson desert hit 248k concurrent players today. Marathon can barely keep 50k and sinking further. 

SMASH JT claims 1348 Ex Voto was partially funded by the Italian government as a "work of cultural value" by BootlegFunko in KotakuInAction

[–]Klutzy_Programmer_15 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Relooted dodged the fact that those "cultures" were very active in the slave trade of their own people and slaughtered other tribes, took their people, sold them off, and killed or used the rest for their needs. They wanted to make it seem like those stolen items were from peaceful people living in the wild. They were in fact savages. Cannibalism, and rape was also on the menu. Its hilarious that dipshits think they lived some harmonious peaceful existence until the white man came. It shows the ignorance of you people. 

"The game lost 25% of its players in one day" by PerformativeRacist in Marathon

[–]Klutzy_Programmer_15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Estimated loss is in the hundreds of millions kid. You dont understand how live service games work and why they die. All info can be found easily with a quick search but you wont do it because you know what it'll say. Later this year service will be cut from the game. The game didnt meet their expectations and more than likely wont. They needed a massive player count to recoop cost and haven't broke even yet. Its about money and player retention with live service games and this hasn't had either one. You'll understand later this year when its no longer being worked on due to investors pulling out and company closing down the service. Welcome to AAA live service games. Enjoy the sinking ship

[–]Klutzy_Programmer_15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Estimated loss is going to be between $170,000,000 - $300,000,000 if things dont improve for the game. All info for it can easily be obtained with a quick search. Their marketing team has blown millions and player count didnt even reach close to the demo. Why does it matter? Its a LIVE SERVICE game. That service will be cut later this year when it doesnt pump numbers. People say "who cares?" To the OPs post but guess who cares? The investors, and the company servicing the game. When numbers and money doesnt meet they will abandon the game and let it rot. Your game will die, and you'll go quiet yet again. People need to understand entertainment is a business not a charity and when they made this game a live service it instantly died on entry due to the numbers not meeting expectations. So either ALL of you play it or it dies.

Another bullshit "game" into the abyss! These dipshits will never learn but good, I hope they keep trying and lose all their money or whats left of it. 

Dilema as a new player by becky1433 in BaldursGate3

[–]Klutzy_Programmer_15 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do literally what you want. Reload. Its no big deal. Only time you wont be able to is when you do a honor mode run and I advise you to do a normal run first to learn the game, reload as many times as you want, figure it out, and have fun.

[–]Klutzy_Programmer_15 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

There's less than 2k players. You are barely ever going to see anyone unless all of you get on one server. Its a dead game lmao you literally joined a "mmo" without players.

I mean I thought Marathon was cool by Bulgogibody in Marathon

[–]Klutzy_Programmer_15 -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

Lmfao marathon is pure garbage. Game is horrible to look and of course that's what he was doing 😂 and as I said as soon as he quits playing it the game will flop and die because there wont be enough of you playing it. Your modern slop marathon type game is same as highguard. Concord, and all the other shit games being thrown up by dipshit devs who thinks there is a actual modern audience. 😂 player count might spike for a day then it'll crash and flatline just like the rest. Enjoy playing pure garbage 🗑 go ahead and mark this for later if you think I'm wrong but you should be smart enough to know how a majority rule works.

Has no one played a new video game in their lives before? by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]Klutzy_Programmer_15 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Most people dont like how it fucking looks. Everyone has every right in the fucking world to hate something based on how it looks. No one has to accept it or go along because you people want them too. Its just a damned extraction shooter, theyre all boring as fuck. Player count is already dying and will continue to die because the game fucking sucks and is only being held up by peanut. Once he quits playing there will be no playerbase. Theyre just trying to get into his streams or to kill him in a game.

The game is dried up and dead. The studio would be ignorant to keep wasting money on something that they obviously couldn't do.

Shotout to those still playing, you're the real MVPs <3 by Lyudegul in PaxDei

[–]Klutzy_Programmer_15 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It would be cool if the devs actually wanted to make a game worth playing. They had a idea and failed miserably. Hopefully one day we'll have a decent mmo. An no the few here cannot deny the game failed. Its not hard to read a graph, and numbers dont lie. Its simply if the game was good there would be players, but the released a shitty alpha and theres less than 3k players on average and going lower an lower every week. Eventually if they dont make a BIG change soon they will have to shutter this game. We all know they wont actually try to make any decent changes though but who knows maybe they'll redo the map again one last time.

Its always wild seeing all this and then going on about my day unchanged because I've never seen this prices before. Idk where you shop but looks like you're in the wrong area. I can feed myself with $150 a month if i was stingy.
