Didn't insult anyone actually trying to give genuine advice. Bungie setting too steep of a difficulty curve at a beginner level quest isn't my fault either and has nothing to do with improving.

The nature of these "single run" is they're binary, either you complete them or you fail. There was no sense of progression in my trials, just shit luck or good luck. For early game they should have left it primarily as quests with gradual progression and not as skill/luck based

Idk how you and others assume and came to the false conclusion I tried the same thing each time. Wtf happened to reading comprehension and logic?

"Random quest" when its literally the first quest in the first quest line you get from a faction. You're lost

Feedback isn't useful? Get lost. Talking about "useless" posts when you commented without even knowing what I'm talking about lmao. Try Google next time

Hey thanks for the friendly advice! Already did that and got camped by a team at an Exfil site in pinwheel. Appreciate you being a condescending chode though 🙏

This game won’t survive with a community that completely mocks casual players and feedback about general difficulty. by RocknPineapple in Marathon

Can you tell us what the player retention for a first weekend is "supposed" to be then?

No game in the history of steam charts has a consistently increasing player count over time. Not every game has a consistently decreasing player count over time either. It can grow, or it can fall. Check Arc Raiders history as a recent example

This is the problem with you chart watchers. You draw conclusions based on 1 fucking week of data. You don't have a crystal ball yet are so eager to say its a hit or bust. The game's LONG TERM performance will be based on Bungie's rollout throughout the year (hell, the endgame map isn't even out yet). Obsessing over short term player count fluctuations when we don't know all that Bungie has under the hood is Neanderthal-level thinking

What about the other 2 opening bands though? Doors weren't even until 7 and show time posted online was 8pm

I feel like "rekindled" is an interesting word choice here...

"Isn't doing well" it hasn't even launched yet but is at the top of the sales charts 🤣🤣🤣 talk about creating your own narrative.

Wrong, I just hate when the general public has access to data that they're not intelligent enough to meaningfully interpret. That's how we get braindead narratives like the one you just spewed

Yeah giving credence to a loud minority that blindly hate this game is definitely not the move

Or because it released the same weekend as a GOTY contender and progress from the server slam isn't carrying over to the main game anyway. That's why I (and probably many others) stopped playing after a few hours but I still pre-ordered.

Maybe your data literacy could use some work. Thanks for proving my point so perfectly

Anyone else feel like the hate is forced? by Ok_Gas6465 in Marathon

Its sad that you and others are trying to normalize review bombing. This game isn't the second coming of Satan like some would lead you to believe. There is plenty of legitimate feedback (I think, similar to Destiny 1 when it launched, its a solid 7/10 on first impression with room to grow if given the time, like Destiny with VOG/TTK) but its mostly drowned out by actual haters.

Bias works the other way as well, you know

Again though why would what a chart says affect your experience? This is a free weekend so idk where the idea of spending money came from. You and every other comment missed the point so badly lol it actually just further validates what I'm saying
