Darkness descends on Tau Ceti IV. Season 2 begins June 2. Featuring a new map with Night Marsh, a new Runner shell Sentinel, the Cradle, new weapons, progression improvements, and more.

How it genuinely feels defending Bungie devs, loving Destiny 2, and loving Marathon all at the same time

"Marathon killed Destiny" or in a much, much longer format: - Content Vault/engine upgrade: Lost story content/favourite activities and weapons gone. Player investment soured. - Sony buying Bungie for $3.6B, at a major peak for Destiny with Witch Queen - The following expansion Lightfall being a major bomb and misstep which was the result of shuffling expansion/story plans - This expansion was what they were banking on being an even further success to finance their other two projects in development at the time. - First Bungie layoffs in Oct 2023, revenue for Destiny fallen by 45%. Destiny Final Shape delayed 6 months, Marathon delayed to 2025 (at the time) - Second round of Bungie layoffs 1 month after Final Shape. Pete Parsons CEO at the time saying they had to make the decision after exhausting all other mitigation options. (What they didn't know yet is he was enjoying that inflated Bungie sale to Sony, buying a whole plethora of classic cars to enjoy while he fired hundreds of devs. but yes, all other options exhausted). - Resulted in unannounced Bungie game transitioning to a new studio under Playstation. - Creative Studios arm of Bungie moved into Playstation to help support other Sony live service. The next big Destiny thing Payback, was cancelled. Big Bungie names laid off. - These two layoffs took Bungie from 1600 employees to about 850. - Sexual harassment accusations against the at the time Marathon game director Christopher Barrett, he is fired. - Oct 2024 Red War plagarism lawsuit, dude says the narrative is lifted from work he wrote on wordpress in 2013/2014. the content is vaulted they can't access it. YouTube footage of the campaign is insiffucient. Nov 2025 they reach an undisclosed settlement. - May 2025 art plagarism with Antireal. Art she created in 2017 were found within the beta of Marathon as art assets. Bungie confirmed a former dev had used the art without permission, promising to work with Antireal to correct it and performed a full evaluation of art in Marathon to verify originality. Antireal was satisfied with the outcome they reached. Marathon delayed indefinitely at this time, with a mention of releasing within that fiscal year. - This was, and still is massively overblown to "every single part of Marathon" being plagarised, and the misinformation surrounding this is staggering and genuinely put a knife in the game's chest. This was a consequence of mass layoffs resulting in a new creative team and this team not knowing where this art came from, and one shitty dev really dealt Bungie yet another shitty hand. - Edge of Fate launches under expectations due to such baggage from these events including company management/morale, questionable decisions like the content vault and not having any onboarding for new players at all essentially only being able to cater to existing players, unable to grow the game's population as there was no fucking cohesive story, as it got vaulted. The new expansion is bad, removes things that worked, added things that didn't, and the new game director is a long term bungie employee but also hermit who just does not speak to the community, even now with it's end of life update. - Pete Parsons leaves Bungie while laughing to the bank. - Doing the Avengers Endgame problem and going right into a new phase when people are not excited about more, they needed to build the excitement again over time. Edge of Fate comes out like a wet fart and the next thing we get after that is the Star Wars crossover, this was not what Destiny needed in order to continue even if it was good. Bungie fucked up a lot, had harbored a lot of ill will and sitting with an overall soured fanbase with a decade's worth of already very demanding fans who at times were rightfully upset and over times completely not, PLUS shit that wasn't within their control to handle so piled on even further and gave the hateful crowd so much ammo that Marathon was plagued the whole time and still is. Bungie also under fire for "abandoning Destiny" but they just simply couldn't right this ship due to so many circumstances and then players leaving in droves therefore of course they will focus on their new game to try ensure a success, as that doesn't have 10+ years of baggage and it is something that needs to keep Bungie going and now we are where we are. It isn't fucking dmg's fault for being a community manager and being excited about the future of Destiny and wanting to see it thrive. WE ALL WANT THAT, BUNGIE INCLUDED! But multiple mistakes, unforeseen challenges and a lot of fucking money get in the way of this "momentum". You can't build momentum when you're one foot in mud, and the crowd supposed to be cheering you on are throwing rocks at you. The absolute batshit takes I've seen from the community is a mixture of shameful, childish and often bordering on straight up psychotic. But yeah, "Marathon killed Destiny."

I’m gutted about #Destiny2. Lots of understandably upset and angry people online today. Lots of finger-pointing at Marathon; some of it deserved, much of it not. I’m excited for the future of Marathon but it sucks that it came at the cost of Destiny’s end. Fuck Pete Parsons.

@Skarrow9 And Vandal, right? RIGHT? 😰

These are so fucking cool god damn I hope we keep getting them for Sentinel and all the new runners

Alright everyone we're going a bit rogue here. We have a bit of an experimental feature that's in development we want to test and we'd love for you to help. As of Wednesday morning 3/18 at 10am PT, we'll be enabling a limited time duos queue on Perimeter only to test how the game plays with crews of 2 at a wider scale. Important things to note: -- It will be on Perimeter only for now. -- The test will last about 2 weeks (but we might cut it off early or elongate it depending on what's going on). -- You can only enter duos with a premade group of you and another friend. (no matchmaking solo into duos). -- You will be matched with other duos only. -- You can select "Perimeter - Duo" from the zone select screen to access it. (not the final intended ux flow right now) -- Some things will be a bit jank. Just a note: this is a bit of an experimental feature so we expect to learn some things along the way and make changes to future versions of this. This likely won't be the final implementation of how it would look and flow in the game, but for now it was easiest way for us to get it to you all to help us test. We're excited to run this experiment with you all. Pending what we learn, we're hoping to expand duos as a queue in the future and we wanted to take this first step sooner than later so we could understand how it affects our game better before investing a lot more time in fleshing out the feature. Additionally, this is unlikely to be the last experiment we run, so look forward to more as we continue to evolve Marathon. FOR SCIENCE!

@daniel__designs How come the Clocks widget doesn’t work? Is it supposed to have a gradient background?

Epic first day at #TwitchCon Europe! We spoke to so many of you from the community about how to use Twitch to fundraise for us and support @CR_UK’s mission to beat cancer. We had loads of fun watching you play our #CRUKTargetAcquired game too! See you tomorrow for more fun. 🎮

We are here at @TwitchCon! Come and have a go at #CRUKTargetAcquired and see how fast YOU are!

@THEBOLDKING I’ve scanned the QR code on my recycling pack but it takes me to a 404 page. Do I just put the envelope in the mail as normal or what?

@theclocksapp Okay, never mind, I found the link to the Shortcut on the website. I don’t think the in-app instructions are completely clear and might need tweaking.

@theclocksapp I’m a bit confused. I set up the Automation with no issues but I can’t follow the next set of steps to define the default clock because Shortcuts doesn’t show the Automation as a new Shortcut in the Shortcuts tab. What am I doing wrong?

@nomadgoods I thought I would pick up a Horween leather traditional leather case, but £8 flat rate shipping for a phone case is crazy. So I guess I’ll go elsewhere!

So you have your new iPhone 16.. But what Nomad case are you grabbing?👀

As is now tradition, to celebrate #YorkshireDay, here's Sean Bean saying 'Bastard' a lot.🔊🆙️
