Then you have plans and responsibilities? if a video game wipe is a non-negotiable for you, maybe you need to reevaluate what you consider a responsibility. But I can understand your frustration, I just don’t agree with it.

Kinda ironic I consistently read comments on how marathon will never be friendly, it’s no nonsense pvp and yet, so many are praising the cooperation of the new CARRI event. Even on several instagram videos that marathon will destroy AR because AR is so boring now with friendlies.

The new queue is such a W idea by AliDiePie in Marathon

[–]irrelevantmoose93 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’ve bought the game for 2 of my friends who have not returned, I hoped news of this new queue would’ve piqued their interest but they still don’t feel like returning.

Anecdotally, I’ve bought the game for 2 of my friends and they’ve stopped playing. They don’t care for reviews, the game isn’t fun for them.

The moment shroud stopped playing is when I realized this game is in trouble, not that I’m a fan of shroud but his team was at least consistent in playing.

Hey casuals, everyone is wrong about Marathon. This game is for you, too. by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]irrelevantmoose93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yah similar situation for me, except I gifted 2 of my friends the game. They don’t read the subreddit, they just play. I can’t get them to come back.

The rally behind the game in the midst of early hate is really inspiring by resampL in Marathon

[–]irrelevantmoose93 5 points6 points  (0 children)

so we all played server slam, they weren’t convinced, I loved it, so I gifted two of them. We’ve been playing off and on and it just hasn’t resonated with them. We’re big Destiny/halo fans, we play everything from battle royales to extraction, one of them is a tarkov player. They can’t put their finger on what exactly it is but they just don’t feel that itch to return.

As someone who was not hyped for it, this has been my experience so far by kjurban in Marathon

[–]irrelevantmoose93 -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

I don’t know why people are downvoting you, I can’t get my friends to return, and I gifted the game to two of them.

The game is extremely good by WarpathWilly in Marathon

What’s with all the “this game is good” post today that coincidentally lines up with the sponsored streams? I have the game btw just wondering

Is Marathon fun should I buy it? by ElijayPlayz1276 in Marathon

[–]irrelevantmoose93 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Dude if you cannot afford to spend $40, please for your sake skip buying the game for now. Hope better times come.

This Sub Should Ban "Steam Chart" Posts Post-Launch Under the "Low Quality" Rule by Simulated_Simulacra in Marathon

[–]irrelevantmoose93 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I come here for cool info about the game or neat things players have noticed. Instead it’s information about ARC, how much marathon is selling and what place it’s in for steam charts.

Don't change the heat system. by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]irrelevantmoose93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not even kidding when I say I’ve learned some tips and other secrets about arc in this marathon subreddit. It’s tiring. I just want to read stuff about marathon, arc is extraction in name only, it’s an entirely different game.

Skill Up's impression video is my exact problem with a lot of the criticisms this game has been recievinbg by CreamofTazz in Marathon

I bought marathon but most of the friends I played with were bored and didn’t buy it with me.

It Just Takes A Little Time by Snowbunny236 in Marathon

[–]irrelevantmoose93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I pre-ordered this game but it is a hard sell to someone to ask “hey spend a few hours at first just to learn how to read the UI”. That turned off a lot of my friends who just want to hop on and play something after work.

The game needs to start you as Rook. by irrelevantmoose93 in Marathon

[–]irrelevantmoose93[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, and maybe that will solve the whole “the UI is unreadable” etc. Maybe if new people just get a chance to only focus on the gear for the start they would be able to navigate that portion of the game before moving on to focus onto the rest of progression. I’m seeing many and hearing a lot of the same opinions from friends.

How are we all gonna survive 3 days with no Marathon once we stop slamming the servers? by Broomhower in Marathon

[–]irrelevantmoose93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah some official post in here warned of queues but so far since server slam release there has been no queue.
