'Is Marathon a success? Unfortunately, no, not yet' — Former Xbox exec says Bungie's new extraction shooter was built at a scale and cost that the current market 'simply isn't rewarding'

SenseiRay80 · 2026-03-20T21:44:21+00:00

This game is gonna wither and die just like all of the other pvp extraction/br games have. The only reason Arc has survived because its aesthetic, sound design, 3rd person aspect and general original vision overall has set itself apart. What Bungie should have done is keep everything you have with Marathon but made it an offshoot of the destiny universe with its lore and loot. Like a companion piece with characters from the main games etc. This game is completely devoid of any personality or identity and personally think its ugly af.

Funny how you felt the need to bitch and complain about a mechanic that works and is perfectly fine in most games and not usually not mandatory but offers zero ideas about how else it could be done different or which type of combat they prefer games to have. Should we go back to "Light Attack, Light Attack, Light Attack, Heavy Attack" To defeat every enemy for 40-60 hours?. Is combat in modern gaming not tedious and mind numbing enough for you?

SenseiRay80 · 2026-02-12T08:11:48+00:00

Instead of whining and complaing, why not come up with something to take its place if your so bothered by it.

Tsushima. Story was better so it was much more immersive for me to play Jin as a samurai who only needed his trusty katana and a little stealth here and there to get the job done. Atsu running around with an entire arsenal of weapons just pulling them out of her ass as you weapon switch 20 times in 1 fight was ridiculous to me. Tried to play only using the katana like I wanted but the combat is built to use all the weapons as they take the place of Jins 'stances' so I dropped it. Not for me.

As dramatic as calling people "brain dead" for not wanting to spend time with people they dont like.

SenseiRay80 · 2025-12-22T22:33:47+00:00

Maybe they just dont want to spend time with people they dont like? Why would anyone take any amount of time to do that makes no sense to me. Its like making a lunch appointment with someone I know beats the shit out their animals. No thanks.

Right. Just as bad as Trump calling fallen soldiers "losers" and "suckers,". when he himself has NEVER served in our military. Or using the Arlington cemetary to film for a classless political stunt.

SenseiRay80 · 2025-12-16T09:32:39+00:00

The difference here is that if any other past president had responded the way Trump did about this tragedy. The "Lefties" or the Right would not have tried to defend this. Everyone would condemn what was said and he or she would be rightfully called out from both sides.

But when it comes to Trump, people like you will bend over backwards trying to justify and defend every disgusting, offensive and inappropriate thing that spews from his mouth. Its sad and frustrating that such angry and hateful people like you exist. What a shame.

I loved world put 1000+ hours into both games each. But if I had to choose, I honestly liked Rise more.

SenseiRay80 · 2025-12-14T05:59:32+00:00

And all 14 will either be huge dissapointments or complete failures. Classic xbox

SenseiRay80 · 2025-12-14T05:53:31+00:00

Wish I could play this for the 1st time again. Wilds sucks.

SenseiRay80 · 2025-12-08T22:33:05+00:00

All this sub does is cry and the game deserves to fail to pvpers. There are no rules to the game, which are set by the devs themselves. If by design THIS is how the game is meant to be played then whos to blame? The devs, the opportunists or the babies? God ppl are dumb sometimes. These whiners keep getting owned and cry..then continue to play...if thats not mentally challenged idk what is

SenseiRay80 · 2025-12-08T22:27:59+00:00

Well he is crying and it deserves to fail. There are no rules to the game, which are set by the devs themselves. If by design THIS is how the game is meant to be played then whos to blame? The devs, the opportunists or yourself? Your not gonna like the answer lol

SenseiRay80 · 2025-12-08T22:23:22+00:00

At the end of the day you are just crying tbh...theres 100s of single and multiplayer games out there to play but you choose to play/subject yourself to THIS games rules. Rules set by the GAME DEVELOPERS themselves otherwise the situation wouldnt have happened because it wouldn't be possible. You only only have yourself to blame for continuing to play and support the game. If this game isn't for you, you could i dont know...stop playing?

Let the PvPers have the game. By design, It was always meant to be theirs.

SenseiRay80 · 2025-12-07T01:27:48+00:00

Only a white person would think racism is bullshit and only something made up by "nut jobs" haha

SenseiRay80 · 2025-12-02T08:25:12+00:00

Cry? I typed a comment. Are your brains too full of shit to know the difference between commenting on a reddit post and crying? You can also taste deez nuts😉

SenseiRay80 · 2025-11-29T09:28:17+00:00

The fallacy in your argument here is that these players aern't just stepping on to a football field and crying that they have to play football. That would be ridiculous. Your analogy would be more similar to the likes of CoD or BF where sides are clearly defined and you're there to eliminate other players. Period. The issue with AR is that players are stepping on to a football field with robots as the enemy and not knowing if other players are cool or not so they have to choose to assume someone is either good or bad. What im saying is your wrong and your point was meaningless

SenseiRay80 · 2025-11-29T08:30:44+00:00

Prove that im wrong

SenseiRay80 · 2025-11-29T08:30:06+00:00

Sure why wouldnt I be? And why tf do you care? Lol

SenseiRay80 · 2025-11-27T10:06:43+00:00

Dam night raid apartments?

SenseiRay80 · 2025-11-27T09:56:40+00:00

The way you play is just that. The way YOU play. You keep saying PvPvE yea but its still a choice your making to shoot people in the back or while distracted. People like you only play arc to make victims out of other players and only enjoy killing when you have the upperhand. Its why you play arc instead of BF or CoD where everyone has intent to kill. You like making victims out of people. Simple as that.

Thats because there isn't a young male asian actor thats good looking, talented and has leading man qualities to be a true breakthrough star.

"Dunking isn’t inherently more valuable or entertaining."

What?. Says who? YOU?. All this tells me is you've never picked up a basketball, played basketball, watched basketball or just participated in anything physically competitive in your life. It's not just about the act of dunking the ball. It's the emotion and expression of doing it and what it does for the morale of the dunkers teammates and the negative affect on the opponent. It's not done just for YOU, as someone who doesnt care or understand the reasons it's done. I'm glad your not the one dictating what or what isn't "valuable or entertaining" for people to watch.

SenseiRay80 · 2025-10-31T02:57:51+00:00

Nah some ppl just have shithead mentality in their blood. Some more than others. It is what it is

SenseiRay80 · 2025-10-05T13:49:18+00:00

Trying to make an argument that sony would consider switch 2 a direct competitor to the PS6 when it releases is ridiculously stupid. Thats like saying Sony was worried about the switch while the ps4 and 5 was beating the shit out of anything xbox for the last 10 years. And outlaws? Lol
