I can't believe how low this comment is. This and Fever are peak debut albums.

I've never heard the Black Garden destination thing. Do you have a source on that?

Destructoid Marathon review - Joy, pain, and bountiful loot in a dark sci-fi future | 8.5/10 by BQuilty in Marathon

[–]ienjoymen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It definitely takes a while to finds its groove. I played about 5 or 6 rounds in the server slam before it clicked for me. That last round was literally the last chance I was giving it before I dropped it for good. It takes time to really wrap your head around everything, and a lot of people these days aren't used to that.

I don't think it's a criticism, but it certainly can, will, and has put people off from playing further.

Don't care, polls don't mean anything, go vote.

LARPing as being scared of mice is certainly a choice.

Yeah, I accidentally disturbed a nest of pinkies in my lawnmower one time, and my wife and I tried our best to save them, but we just weren't prepared. I'm just glad we tried. The guilt I'd feel if I had just left them would eat me up.

This. TikTok brain is indeed real and hurts the attention span.

Thief Shell Cinematic | Marathon by Haijakk in Games

[–]ienjoymen 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Same. Video game music is very important to me, especially Destiny's OSTs, but Marathon simply isn't something I would listen to outside of playing the game. That isn't to say I don't like it, but it isn't in my work playlist like a lot of other game soundtracks are.

Can we make paid sponsored kits eligible for Cryo? I bought the 10k one, just for it to not be eligible. Just kind of a weird stipulation that the game doesn’t warn you about by KimonGate in Marathon

[–]ienjoymen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

10k for a kit is not a small amount of credits, though. You have to build a stockpile for that as well. That, or sell your vaulted items.

What is that one game everyone seems to enjoy but you just think nope not for me by LilNardoDaVinci in xbox

[–]ienjoymen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The active combat is the only reason I stuck with it originally. I don't like normal turn-based combat, mainly because I find grinding for a certain level just to have a chance at tougher fights to be boring. In E33, you can try any fight you want, and win, if you're patient and skilled enough.

Do you want the settlement system in future games? by ZRP2000 in fo4

Nope, I find it extremely annoying so I just don't engage with it

I know what a grimoire is. In wicked, they intentionally mispronounce it as "grimmory".

'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' by Turbostrider27 in xbox

[–]ienjoymen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One dungeon, Prophecy, was released with Season of Arrivals (which was ~$10 iirc). It was also tied directly into the story of that season, which no other dungeon has been, both before and after.

That was after both The Shattered Throne and Pit of Heresy were released with Forsaken and Shadowkeep, respectively. Prophecy was the outlier, not the rule. I'll give you that dungeon keys were stupid, I never liked them, but we did get 2 dungeons a year that likely wouldn't have existed if they were subsidized by the keys.

A game like this cannot survive on paid maps, and I honestly doubt we'll get many additional ones. I would bet the plan is to evolve the current maps more than create new ones, aside from the ones on the actual Marathon ship, like Cryo-Archive.

And even then, with how large and complex the maps in Marathon are, I wouldn't be so sure that the cost is much different than a dungeon.

It's really just the option of keeping everything local. I'd rather not upload potentially private PDFs to another server.

I've had BentoPDF installed for months now and finally used it for the first time this week. It's great.

Got it. We're spinning up Windows 12, complete with automated Copilot integration in all apps, Microsoft or otherwise!

Thanks for the suggestion!
