@inth3nearfuture @Hyuuui87 @PlayStation @PlayVerso I like crimson and am 100 hours in
Single player is my usual go too
But still think marathon is the best game this last month

It's time to vote for your favorite new game from March.
Players' Choice polls are now open: play.st/3OeAfOD

@PrimeTactiks @PlayStation I even enjoy crimson desert but voted for marathon
Is it really shilling if it’s a great game
English
@PlayStation Crimson Desert is the answer for me. The Marathon shilling is reaching catastrophic levels. This should prove to SONY that paying for marketing and reviews does not guarantee revenue. Crimson Desert was panned in reviews and seems to be a real GOTY contender this early in 2026
English
@CloudBoys3521 @CerbersEnjoyer @PlayStation Even after playing a good amount of these
I also voted for marathon
English
@real_122109 @DestinLegarie I don’t think things are anywhere close to concord player counts
English
@DestinLegarie just like tons of games in the past.
obviously no game dev is going to come out and say "yeah our game is a massive failure and we're struggling to keep the lights on" because then its just going to die even faster

@PlayStation Fuck off @hermenhulst, fuck off and take your trend chasing cash grabbing live service horse shit with you. @PlayStation sack the cunt already, so we can have the story driven games back and with Hulst gone, no more studio closers

Ping and counter-ping 📡
Marathon's Recon Runner Shell uses echo pulses and holographic footsteps to track targets.

@LiveServiceLab @comemelabocapls @John__Marathon If I had just rated it on my time with the server slam I’d say it was the worst game I’ve ever played
English
@GrocottAlec @comemelabocapls @John__Marathon I believe you enjoy it but you still haven’t pointed to a single aspect that actually makes it innovative
Is there a specific enemy or mechanic in game that makes it special?
English
What ratings has your game gotten?

I present: The absolute glazing the gaming press is giving a game that nobody wants to play.
English
@LiveServiceLab @comemelabocapls @John__Marathon It’s hard to truly explain how I feel as I do enjoy pretty much all the games that it’s compared to but
As I said I have over 200 hours in arc :) but have also struggled to go back to both tarkov and arc
and I’m still surprised as
English
@LiveServiceLab @comemelabocapls @John__Marathon I really feel it’s almost impossible to make stuff that is truly new or hasn’t been done elsewhere :)
But it’s just the way it’s all implemented into the game that makes it so amazing
You are correct tho that maybe this stuff isn’t innovative but
English
@LiveServiceLab @comemelabocapls @John__Marathon Bungie have been on a decline for many many years :) and even I thought it would continue after the awful server slam
But I genuinely think this is the best bungie has been since the halo trilogy
English
@GrocottAlec @comemelabocapls @John__Marathon You mean raids ? Gameplay that has existed in online games as early as WoW over 2 decades ago?
English
@LiveServiceLab @comemelabocapls @John__Marathon Hundreds of hours in both of the other games
And I still think marathon vastly eclipses both :) and I’m someone who genuinely hated the alpha and server slam
English
@GrocottAlec @comemelabocapls @John__Marathon Arc has enemies that adapt their strategy to the circumstance, Tarkov has a hideout and pve mode. Again il ask what makes marathon innovative exactly?
English
@LiveServiceLab @comemelabocapls @John__Marathon The way these are all implemented are innovative
I play tarkov and arc and still find the ideas that marathon have the most innovative of the three
English
@GrocottAlec @comemelabocapls @John__Marathon Still haven’t named one innovative idea or system. It’s all stuff we’ve seen before
English
@comemelabocapls @LiveServiceLab @John__Marathon The beta was terrible
Absolutely agreed there
However there is nothing remotely woke about the game
English
@GrocottAlec @LiveServiceLab @John__Marathon I played the beta, with my friend. The biggest trash i ever played. I'm not paying 40$ for that. And in steam is with the tag LGBTQ+ so is a NON-BUY-NARY game
English
@xfloppaa @Tahnit @John__Marathon I like all of them
None of them come close to Cryo
But like I said I’d reccomend atleast trying them
English
@GrocottAlec @Tahnit @John__Marathon That’s stretch when you have Stella montis and labs, interchange, and customs
English
@nyc_prophet Have you even played said game you constantly spew the same rubbish about
English
IGN proving again that they are on Sony's payroll
English
@xfloppaa @Tahnit @John__Marathon And this is coming from someone like myself who simply hated anything before release
English
@xfloppaa @Tahnit @John__Marathon I will say tho it’s worth at least trying beyond the first couple of hours
Outpost and Cryo are some of the best multiplayer maps in any game
In a very long time
English
@xfloppaa @Tahnit @John__Marathon Tbf I also gave up on bungie awhile ago until marathon
Destiny hasn’t been good in a long time
English
@Tahnit @GrocottAlec @John__Marathon I respect that, but I gave up on bungie long ago after they released destiny 2 and then I gave it a try again with witch queen dlc and they don’t make bangers anymore imo they should’ve just remade destiny one with the pc port and went from there. Imo
English
@coldcurrent_ @glorpinity And in terms of destiny thousands of hours in and I’d much rather them let it go
Just focus on marathon
English
@coldcurrent_ @glorpinity The original marathon trilogy is incredible
But honestly think this is also
Regardless of how it’s doing popularity wise this is the best bungie have been on a pure quality since halo
English
