i took some adderall in hopes of having a productive night and now I’m just sad but faster

@xenofractal @punishedindeed it’s a one time claim, my buddy used his last week on a regular run and couldn’t claim another

@punishedindeed they did one last week, did they not do one this time?

think a good middle ground for allowing lower level/geared players to access cryo and still keeping it as The Salty Spatoon Endgame Map is offering 1 or 2 free cryo kits every week so even people who are broke can try it out and learn

@kurosumomo @Jamessmokeeee do you only consume whatever happens to be the most popular?

@Jamessmokeeee I believe good games have good player numbers.

Review bombing Metacritic doesn’t work when the game is actually good. Marathon continues to exceed expectations.

@messmerdimpale @shinobi602 @HomieSanto I can’t wait for you culture war retards to find a new hobby lmao

@PolishTamales @SmashJT the responsible thing to do here would be to delete your tweet and apologize for spreading misinformation

@SmashJT UPDATE: The OP of the Reddit post couldn't provide more than 1-sided receipts and ghosted Reddit this morning, along with deleting all interactions and photos in the thread.

@messmerdimpale @shinobi602 @HomieSanto enjoy your ubislop trash game chudson desert

@shinobi602 @HomieSanto And garbage ass Maraflop can’t even cross 100k players on steam 🤣🤣😂😂

@SmashJT at least ur honest about being a retard in your bio

HOLY SHEEEET - This is as bad as the plagiarism scandal for Bungie. If it gets found out that this discord is connected in any way to them... There is NO coming back from this.

@Onepeg Arc raiders basically gave players their pve mode and it made the game pretty boring. also, all my friends that wanted that shit didn’t even bother playing it anymore anyway so I don’t feel like it would help here either

Please see my friends “fuck” and “no”. They’re the son and daughter of “get” and “good”.

@isolatedrook make patch kits and shield charges cheaper but make these more expensive fs (I don’t buy any of these items I just loot them)

I'll probably be eviscerated for this one but this thing should probably cost more than 500 credits

@Arrrrash I know a lot of people who didn’t check it out during the server slam who want to try it now after hearing about it from me, but don’t want to drop $40 on a game that might not be for them. I do think a free weekend would be awesome but they should improve the onboarding first

I love Marathon, but I don't think the answer to this is one people really want to hear. Everytime a game drops and underperforms all the players who love it always speculate what x company can do to raise the playerbase. It's never as simple as just doing one thing. I don't think a free weekend would hurt, but it's also worth noting Marathon had a pseudo free weekend when they dropped the server slam right before the game came out. Lot's of those players didn't end up buying the game, and I struggle to see how that would be different this time around. Sure the game has a couple more maps, but most new players aren't going to get to Outpost or definetly Cyro before they end up quitting anyways. TLDR: I think Marathons player base is what it is. Bungie's best bet is likely focusing on retention and maybe slowly over time that can grow as new players trickle in, as long as the existing ones stick around. But does Bungie have the runway to do that funding wise? Idk

@Opioraryap @ItsTomographic lmaoooo

@Opioraryap @ItsTomographic game will never die because you retards can’t keep its name out your mouth 🙏

Marathon is being so slept on by the FPS community. It's been really interesting as a content creator, hearing directly from viewers that they refuse to watch because they can’t get past the polarizing visuals to understand that this is truly one of the best feeling FPS experiences in years with tight gunplay, insane tension (genuinely has my heart beating out my chest) and a gameplay loop that actually rewards skill and decision making. But I think that's also the games biggest problem. People like to bash the art style but really I think it's that PvP games just don’t stick like they used to. They’re harder to get into, harder to watch, and don’t have broad, instant appeal. If it’s not immediately accessible or visually “safe” people bounce. So Marathon ends up overlooked, not because it’s bad (it's great) but because it’s different at a time when most players just want familiar. *It's also crazy that Bungie took such a huge risk on a niche game with a niche art style for such a niche demographic so I can understand where the negativity is coming from as far as gamers wanting more than just "another extraction shooter" but they made a damn good one and I hope more people give it a chance.

@hahahapendejos @metacritic Least schizo marathon hater

@metacritic I expected nothing less from my favorite corrupt review site ❤️. Remember the rating she gave Concord and what happened afterward?

A bunch of additional scored reviews of Marathon have been lodged (w/many more to come) metacritic.com/game/marathon/ "Memorable for its excellent game feel and striking artistic direction, Marathon is a punitive, extreme and exponentially addictive extraction shooter." - IGN France

@TheTacoTim most marathon haters have ai generated profile pictures which tells me everything I need to know about their taste

I swear the people who talk the most about Marathon are the ones who don’t care about it or have never played it 💀 Go back to “Steal a Brainrot” or find something you actually enjoy Either that or you let me keep farming you for engagement 🤣

@ArcxonLive @MuItimach @StonksSG I wrote that I didn’t think I’d like it in my review because I didn’t think I would and I thought it was worth mentioning. I almost didn’t even try the game but now I’m absolutely hooked on it . It’s not that crazy for people to have similar feelings lmao

You think it’s a coincidence that 2 of the 3 reviews say something similar to “I didn’t think I’d enjoy it…”….just ran through the reviews and just from a. Quick scroll there is about 20 reviews that state that. Now I’m bored and curious to see what the different AI will say if I ask it to write a review…I’ll get back with the results. If you win that round. I’ll admit defeat.

dude i fucking wish marathon wasnt shrouded in controvercy before release. Universally all ACTUAL critics (not just the people who suck at fps games) have given the game an incredibly high review score and have said it scratches an itch many games dont.

@Opioraryap @ItsTomographic have fun with your slop, piggy.

@_PONYBOI_ @ItsTomographic Im a fan of shit games having shit sales and dying where shit dwells.🤡🖕 All of gaming gets better jnch by inch as bad games die.

@Opioraryap @ItsTomographic Not by normal people, no. It’s pretty funny how much you tweet about marathon tho, are you sure you aren’t a fan?

@_PONYBOI_ @ItsTomographic Dead things are talked of constantly... What are you even on about?

@isolatedrook I’m not sure new content alone can save it. I enjoyed it so I hope they can turn it around but I really don’t know if I trust embark’s vision at this point. expeditions need an overhaul, skills need an overhaul, weapons need an overhaul… but no we get shredders on every map 😱

While we're discussing Steam charts, do we wanna have a conversation about how Arc has lost roughly 100k players in the last 30 days or are we just gonna pretend that's not happening? I like the game but you guys seem to be ignoring some of the stats you like to tout.

@DanielJeffs2 @ItsTomographic @TheTankBall the best part about the marathon UI is unlike arc raiders you don’t have to spend 50% of your game time looking at it, instead you get to play the game

@ItsTomographic @TheTankBall It has a generationally bad UI too. Genuinely confounded how it was allowed to release with it in such a state. Surely they knew?

@SouthMammal1 @eyedroppings @happytobebald the quality and quantity of the content in marathon is substantially higher

@_PONYBOI_ @eyedroppings @happytobebald So game being hard means they can just slack on content, guess have fun with ur 13 players

No way this was their major update 💔

@SouthMammal1 @eyedroppings @happytobebald it’s not enough bc the game is dogshit easy and they’ve spent too much time appealing to the casual dad gamers. I will exceed my play time with arc long before the first season of marathon is over

@_PONYBOI_ @eyedroppings @happytobebald The whole problem with Arc is the lack of content, everyone saying monthly content drops “aren’t enough” how the fuck is every other month content drops gonna work for marathon fucknut
