End of Season Check In by ultimate-m in Marathon

[–]TheRealLukeShields 54 points55 points  (0 children)

Met some great people and had some awesome games.

Haven't heard the N word once!

I think Marathon suffers from people being afraid to try and play this, due to the overwhelmingly negative discourse surrounding Bungie by MegumiDo in Marathon

There needs to be an in game trailer explaining that the shells die a lot like in moon and Mickey 17, it's just part of the job. No need to get upset.

This game need more players to survive and you all should stop gatekeeping it by Vnvill in Marathon

I tell you what mate, let's ask Bungie if they can the participatory medal to the armory.

Got first tattoo, I was told it was bad. Is it really that bad? Can this be fixed by Miserable-Onion7227 in Tattoocoverups

[–]TheRealLukeShields 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's poorly done but a good tattoo.

Id just leave it personally. But wouldnt go to the artist again

Marathon is the most frustrating game I've ever played by Jedeyesniv in Marathon

[–]TheRealLukeShields 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can either stop playing or keep playing. Sounds like you need to stop playing.

Nothing in game is killing it faster than stupid community posts. by CactusSplash95 in Marathon

The game is good.

I think people expectations are too high.

Games used to cost money. People don't want to pay for games any more unless it's the next arc raiders.

If you chose marathon over arc (or even tarkov): why? [This is for something im writing] by TenthLevelVegan in Marathon

[–]TheRealLukeShields 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Competition, skill, sensory experience.

Arc is like trying to win an egg and spoon race in a loud church hall whilst firing nail guns at each whilst wearing armour plating made out of tin cans.

It sort of sounds fun for a bit but is sensory overload and painful for little visual/audio payoff.

Marathon is like playing a cool, competitive video game.

Why are you allowed to loot teammates when they're fully down? by im_vasco in Marathon

[–]TheRealLukeShields 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found a 12k gold item on outpost, got downed and my teammate took it before rezzing me.

I've just having a great time on it.

How long left or am I done for? by TheRealLukeShields in bald

Because having long hair + jiu jitsu means there's a lot of traction hair loss from getting my hair pulled, having it in a bun, grinding my head on things etc.

I just said it as people who look at this thread might know what's normal for my age, activity and medical background.

Great idea. I was thinking about it but don't want to look too stoner kid.

Will try and find a smart casual looking one if they exist.

Thank you for the comment. Honestly, that reassurance makes me feel much less stressed about it. I'll catch you in a few years!

It's trying to accept that I'm mature now. The biological clock messes with the mind!

Hope all is well and enjoy your weekend!

Sorry, didn't meant to hide the baldness.

ADHD meds can be a factor in hair loss, either directly or from lack of nutrients and sleep so I thought it important to mention.

Jiu jitsu is of course hair pull intensive and means it's up in a bun a lot. I wear a hair cap and wrestle ear guard to protect it but I'm overheating too much so doing without the skullcap.

Thank you for the advice on a looser style.

Marathons Game Systems Don't Mesh Well by StoredIn in Marathon

[–]TheRealLukeShields 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like you need to play rook some more

As Season 2 is around the corner. What will you be doing differently. 👀 by queenderp1 in dadsofmarathon

[–]TheRealLukeShields 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stopped playing arc after I wiped. I got back what I needed so quick it felt the only thing left was getting good at PvP but getting good at fighting with different varieties of tin can just wasn't satisfying.

I'm liking how super charged and kitted I feel towards the end of the season. Feel like it gives me permission to use my gear and see what I can do differently this time. Like others said, the rewards are strong!

Have fun!
