@t_tPhantom It’s actually crazy too because the show was never too heavily focused on the lore. There was only a few things that truly needed to be explained, it was always about the characters and it pisses me off that a lot of people don’t understand that
@DaroIsa3@sapphicfunbun Completely disagree, they forsake pomnis normal characterization just to move the plot forward. Shes normally questioning, poking, and prodding. Yet in that episode, she just goes along with Abel?? I’m sorry, but ep 7 was bad bc we also knew about 2 more episodes on the way
I'm so very tired of Marathon being a scapegoat over and over again.
Bungie made a game they're proud of (and so they should be!)
I agree that moving a % of the Destiny team to work on Marathon could have been a detriment to D2 short term but the reality is Destiny 2 was in a state of up and down throughout it's entire cycle since launch.
I also reckon with proper leadership and direction we could've been in a world where Marathon existed meanwhile Destiny had it's next IP greenlit and was coming down the pipeline whilst continuing to recieve proper updates.
I also see the player counts for Marathon and know it likely isn't sustainable long term as of yet however comparing them to Destiny is apples to oranges. (I also reckon a huge % of D2 players hadn;t played for months before the big update because they were fed up!)
If you've played and don't like the game, nor even like the genre I think that's fine. But constantly blaming it for where Destiny ended up is the wrong finger to point.
@FinalRezonance@glorpinity Destiny had its time, and now the game is dogshit. Marathon is better than anything destiny could ever do, stop crying that your 9 year run ended. It became what cod became, slop
@OlManMakowski Because they feel like they finished with the IP. It’s the same reason there won’t be a RDR3, because there would be no point. Game companies are allowed to make other games, and they’ve decided to move on to another game. I’d get tired of doing the same thing for 9 years
@Lil_9_Lives@eternalcrim@YankeeClippah Yeah but what about the people who haven’t played it. I literally couldn’t get into destiny because of this. I’m not going to watch someone play something that I - hypothetically should be able to- play myself. But instead they vaulted content and therefore destiny is incomplete
@luscielia The story is so great, it just sucks that the story is bogged down by gameplay that’s overall mid (at least in 2020 GOW). It gets repetitive way too fast and they don’t do anything to shake it up very much. I love the story, its just the gameplay that gets me
@Chase_Observes@SkyAsassino Marathon didn’t kill destiny. Bungie just decided they didn’t want to work on destiny anymore. Let it die in the pitiful way it was already going to with or without marathons existence. Destiny became just like COD, garbage, reused, underutilized trash
