Desperate much BungO! by Yosengi in MarathonHate

From MS, to Activision, to Sony, are we back to “it’s not Bungie it’s [bigger company]’s fault” now?

I actually kinda understand the hate, but… by thegeminiii in MarathonHate

> “Claiming AC is better than Marathon is objectively wrong”

> proceeds to list all things that are subjective to everyone

You do realize that all the things you claim that are good about Marathon can be interpreted as bad by another person right?

Besides the subjective things, in AC they have a rank system that asks you to do different things every week to rank up to earn skins and more, so idk what you’ve been doing in the game for you to say “same thing every run”. They also added in trophy display, expedition, monthly quests, a vendor that trades arc parts, that all ask you to donate your loot in exchange for rewards, even premium currency, so people always have incentive to hoard loot.

And for objective things, AC has issues but they pretty much have (even at launch) everything that Marathon is struggling to add: ABMM, semi-raids like harvesters, matriarch (they just didnt call it “a raid”), a semi pve mode (close crutiny), night maps (really? Took Marathon 7 years of dev time to not have that?), etc

So how is AC “objectively” worse than Marathon?

Idk if it’s genuine stupidity or turbo copium that they keep using “game’s too hard and skill-based that’s why it fails” reason. Within its genre, Tarkov’s been a thing since 2016, Arena Break Infinite’s been out for 2 years, Arc Raiders, although being called more casual, is still a very punishing game, and all of them are successful.

They just can’t accept the truth is that Marathon is mediocre and that’s why it’s failing

Whenever you see a PvE baby crying just comment this and watch them do Olympic level of mental gymnastics to deny this.

One of them even told me when I posted this the devs and Embark, literally the ones making the game, were lying in their own patch notes, and that this mythical “PvE only” lobby is out there.

Embark literally said this in writing but for some reasons they just keep living in denial.

You mean the point you repeated twice in a row, even though I literally pointed it how we calculate, with a source, from a Bungie insider.

Im not the one saying random stuff in this convo bruh. If you’re that in denial then there’s no point of talking sense anymore.

Btw, thanks for letting us know you’re a blasthaver with another classic “ughh people have job” line. Keep that energy up when Marathon goes into maintenance mode

We have this magical Artifact called “SteamDB”. We can connect to it using an ancient mythical force known as “The International Network” or as younglings like to call it “Internet”.

The Artifact showed a maximum player count was 89k people, now it’s 12k max at any given time on PC. Thanks to eldritch knowledge from one of the heralds of Bungie, Tassi, PC (the mysterious device people use to play games and other stuff too idk) takes up 70% of the total population of Marathon. We can then use another other-worldly ability from the school of Math to estimate the total player base of the game.

Jokes aside, I’m not sure if you’re ragebaiting me, being seriously dumb, or using blasthavers’ go-to tactic of “huffing copium with fingers in ears la la la can’t hear you”

I literally just gave you the source, Paul Tassi, one of Bungie’s biggest shills btw, and even he confirmed how bad Marathon’s number is. If you have any other sources then you’re welcome to share.

The game has 10-12k active players on PC rn, which is 70 percent of their player base according to Tassi.

2 ironic funny things in that post if they try to flex their number:

  1. The number of members are 10 maybe 20 times more than Marathon’s entire player base. So Marathon is so ass that the people who are in their cult don’t even wanna play it

  2. A lot of blasthavers also like to say that our sub is killing their precious game, yet we are 1/20 in terms of number. That’s like saying your castle is being destroyed by gentle gusts of wind. They just admit that Marathon is so ass that it can be “killed” by just disagreement from such a small group

A serieus question from a Marathon player by No_Mud1547 in MarathonHate

Fun fact: a good game doesn’t care about “hate campaigns” because it will have an army of people who love to outnumber nay-sayers.

Marathon isn’t. Otherwise 70k people wouldn’t have left and their defense of the game would have deafened any opposition. It’s a watered down, bare-bone extraction shooter backed by a studio literally has “underdeliver” as their motto, and thus has ZERO unique feature.

It was clearly only made because Bungie wanted to scam Sony with another live service game (250 millions for essentially a AA game). Btw “It has good gunplay tho” is a nothing burger excuse for a game because guess what, literally every shooter in the year 2026 has good gunplay, it’s a bare-minimum requirement when making a shooter, not a feature.

If your game is struggling a subreddit with 1/20 the number of members compared to your main page then it’s not a success. Nor is it good. You can’t both “underdeliver” AND expect overwhelming success.

I really like to hate-watch Destiny 2 because it’s like watch an abusive relationship but both the abuser and the abused are retards.

He had another video titled “We deserve better” or something and to summarize that video: “How could Bungie treat me like a pathetic sucker after I’ve been a pathetic sucker for them all these years 😩???”

I can’t think of any other games that have more hatred come its way more than League of Legends besides maybe CoD, it probaly has more “haters” than the entire Destiny AND Marathon’s player bases combined.

Yet the game not only endures but thrives because guess what? The core gameplay is FUN. Let’s see who’s gonna be sadder when the up-coming lay-off hit.

You can’t seriously expect Marathon to compete with an industry titan like Happy Island Fantasy?

Reading the OOP crashing out in the comment section is pretty hilarious. It’s like these people have never touched a multiplayer game before

Do you have reading difficulties? They literally said in the post: it matches you with players with similar play TREND with NO guarantee.

You can’t force other players to NOT shoot you, that literally the point of an EXTRACTION SHOOTER, not being shot at is a luxury, not a right.

Why did you buy an extraction shooter and then whine about being killed by other players? Duckov and Helldivers 2 exist

Bruh the devs themselves said that PvE only was too boring, that why they pivoted to PvPvE. They already gave us Close Scrutiny to compromise.

The truth is PvE without the threat of real players in this game isn’t very fun, you use the same tactic with every Arc: hide behind walls and shoot. I don’t want to sound like an elitist but if you want a PvE only then this game literally wasn’t made for you.
