You aren't wrong.
But the other reality is that there are a chunk of people that were willing to give the game a shot that logged in, saw the game was down, and logged out and uninstalled. THAT section is where the misstep was. Those players that may have bought the game but now won't because of a "small network bug"
You certainly can.
But downplaying it for everyone else and saying "it was an annoying networking bug" is clear spin and downplaying the impact it likely had on potential people trying the game for the first time or going back to it.
It was not a good look for an already troubled game.
@CoolRunnerCraig@LG1T Having the game get a free week and be unplayable for basically the first 6+ hours of that free period is a pretty big deal no matter how hard you try to spin it.
We can acknowledge missteps and still be a fan of the game. Not everything needs spin.
@PiggyKropotkinn It's never going to be like week 1 or 2 again because the playerbase's game knowledge is far greater this season than it was when the game launched.
This is why people are delusional thinking it's going to go back to things being even. That will never happen again.
@aakashgupta 7k a year is almost a max contribution to an IRA, so there's SOME validity to what he's saying.
Obviously it's not the end all reason for everything but a 7k IRA vs nothing is going to be a huge difference in wealth over even just 10 years, not to mention 30+
@giancar73012035 Very weird take given you apparently like Bungie games, Bungie games having a roughly launch server wise with new seasons/content isn't remotely new or unique..
This comes off as very strange stan behavior
@BogOnMyDog@pixlexia There are more hated games, you probably just didn't care about them the way you care about Marathon.
Just enjoy your game man, who cares what these random people you will never meet say about your favorite video game?
@AcrossCavs A 30m player doesn't get paid solely based off of one playoff series. Don't be dense.
Most 30m players can't be arguably the best playoff in any playoff series on a team with a second team All-Nba player but James did that twice this postseason
@HoodiGarland Yeah what looked different is that they were playing like a first round exit team with Darius on the squad this year and instead were one of the last 4 teams standing (albeit the worst of the 4)
@MayneForever@TheBocop@isolatedrook@DivideGaming21 Respectfully, Rook put out up an open question that literally anybody could respond to.
Is this person being snarky by saying they are going to play destiny 2? Yes.
Is it an "attack" on Rook or the Marathon community? Aboslutely not, it's wild to suggest it is.
@DamienPetersNBA@ColeSpeakss Sure, but you said NO versions. If JDub was healthy and the player he was last year I think it's feasible that they could win
