After about an hour of Marathon and getting past the tutorial, completing my first faction objective to level up, died once in a run and successfully extracted in another, I get the excitement of going back for another run… I love the artstyle and gameplay so far.
Here's a simple lesson in game finance. Assume the same team could make a sequel (in 2 years) and it sold just as well (unlikely due to innovation problem), it quickly (by the first sequel!) becomes an unattractive investment assuming flat sales but inflation cost increases.1/x

Am I tripping, or does this sound like they turned Marathon into Left 4 Dead? Sounds fun as hell. Making it final exfil only is also genius, guaranteed to either be a bloodbath of rooks, or a cool lobby-wide truce.
Season 2 is here tomorrow! Here's exactly when you'll be able to jump in:
➡️ Season 2 Launches: 10AM PT on June 2
➡️ Open Play Week Begins: 12PM PT on June 2
➡️ Open Play Week Concludes: 7AM PT on June 9
Mark those calendars!
"In Sponsored Survival, a single crew will infil onto the new Night Marsh zone. They’ll start as the only players on the map and can explore, loot, and blast their flashlights without fear of repercussion... from PVP enemies anyways. The UESC will still be there in full force, as will some new enemies that lurk in the shadows"
