it didn't fully commit, which I think hurts it

depending on what classes/loadouts are like, it's going to be too messy is my concern
in Fortnite, it doesn't really matter, but in Seige/Tarkov/any of these extraction shooters
that's going to be what I think people will get hung up on
it's also weirdly Hunt Showdown coded
which I still don't think is that good of a game
I think "good extraction shooter"
is a good concept
and no one has been able to get more than 50% of the way there
and for the record, I don't think Bungie will be the one
I didn't post it, but Dark and Darker gave up sorta
and just added a co-op PvE mode
not at all
I don't know how Bungie hopes to earn money on this
I think it will be good, ideally better than Finals/Heyenas
but I just don't see this being the BIG thing
though granted, I thought that about Apex too, since it's a heavily mid game
but after a few years, they spent their way into relevence
Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 though granted, I thought that about Apex too, since it's a heavily mid game
its the movement
I still think one of the most fun parts of Dark&Darker Alpha, was that it wasn't cutthrought, kill everyone on-sight

my concept for what would make a good extraction game includes that
I think there are a lot of different way to get there, and I agree
my current thought is a lot of that comes down to map design
you can have lots of meta systems as well, if you want to make it more of a game mechanic
Division 2 game up way too early

okay I have confirmation that Marathon is not $70, "not even close"
twitter.combut their Darkzone concept was ok
I assumed Marathon was going to be F2P, if it's not
I'm surprised
if it's F2P with paid early access, I think that'll hurt it
if it's paid idk, I think they'll need to show off A LOT
to prove that its worth it
because the hype is mostly "huh, yeah I want to try a Bungie game"
which doesn't work for a paid game
Bungie's Marathon Is A Polished Extraction Shooter, But That Might ...
Marathon feels like it'll deliver satisfying gameplay, but the experience around it could leave a lot to be desired
www.gamespot.comMy prediction is it's paid early access, at two tiers of $20/$40 (with bonus cosmetics or w/e), and then the v1.0 full release will be f2p
and I think that will hurt it
