@Mister_FenX Timing isn’t showing - type it to me?

@SamsungUK Top of range freezer dead within 3 years. Extended warranty refused as I apparently didn’t hit the right link - sat in kitchen for 6 weeks, official repair apparently regassed and marked as fixed - still failing. How is this a fit for purpose product?

First single out today!

Can’t wait for this, psyched to announce I will be back on tour in support of my new album, starting end of September! Been a lot of fun digesting and testing this stuff so now it’s time to throw it up 🤢

@TalonRahl_exe @TauCetiGG @4nt1r34l …and not necessarily wrong, we’re all compiled objects of influence after all. I guess in this case to me, the ‘feel’ of how these elements stack seem off, and it seems quite tough to see Marathon as worthy of being considered its own thing. PS you’re welcome

[Feed Me @feedme]

@TalonRahl_exe @TauCetiGG @4nt1r34l You could well be right, and might explain the artefacty look of some text. Ultimately influence, style, artistic intent are all fluid and often a ‘feel’ thing. On a personal level I’ve had instances where I can tell someone used my work as reference - but that’s often flattering

[Feed Me @feedme]

@TalonRahl_exe @TauCetiGG @4nt1r34l I think your response is a demonstration of how difficult it is to police ‘style’, but in this instance it comes off a bit apologist to me when there’s now copy pasted assets in-game, and a glaring omission from the art director to name @4nt1r34l among his influences

[Feed Me @feedme]

Again, TDR worked hand in hand with Psygnosis which is why it worked so well, it’s well detailed in the volume book and it’s interesting read how TDR influenced / steered away from aspects of the game with great results

[Joseph Cross @josephacross]

A lot of you have already identified many of our visual influences, Mirrors Edge, Aeon Flux, Ghost in the Shell, Otomo, Koji Morimoto, The Designers Republic, Chris Cunningham, are all definitely in our "stew" of inspiration.

When Death Stranding started getting teased I thought ‘sick, clothing has a real @erlsn vibe’ and guess what: not only was it because he was involved, he is also literally IN THE GAME

[Joseph Cross @josephacross]

OG Marathon, and Wipeout (to name few) are full of interesting visual qualities and ideas, just as much as next/current gen games like Death Stranding, God of War, and The Last of US are.

@PaulTassi It has the feel of ‘we heard you like sportswear so we covered the world in Nike ticks’ - it doesn’t make for a 3D environment that reads as habitable, relatable or somewhere you want to keep coming back to. I don’t think the original artist would’ve applied their work this way

[Feed Me @feedme]

@PaulTassi The other issue with the aesthetic to me is that it misunderstands its purpose - futurism supplement environments in the way industrial designation does in say haulage or military application - it doesn’t mean that every single surface needs to be a neon nightmare

[Feed Me @feedme]

@grave_keepr @4nt1r34l You can see where Adobe Illustrator live-trace only partially picked out the text in the box and has the typical artefacts from doing so

[Feed Me @feedme]

I think the problem here is that the entire games aesthetic is built on the @4nt1r34l aesthetic. Saying a ‘former employee’ is responsible isn’t vindicating when the products entire look now appears collective plagiarism. It would be impossible to un-4nt1r34l the game.

[Marathon Development Team @MarathonDevTeam]

We immediately investigated a concern regarding unauthorized use of artist decals in Marathon and confirmed that a former Bungie artist included these in a texture sheet that was ultimately used in-game.

Awesome time at the Church in Denver, I love high altitude locations

[Feed Me @feedme]

@Uncle_Skeleton @4nt1r34l Looks like they have form for compensating artists after-the-fact though, but yeah not good to see. The parallel issue Marathon has got is that the gameplay is just really tiring to look at, in a game format that requires a lot of repeat dives in

[Feed Me @feedme]

If @4nt1r34l had worked on the game, I’d wager you’d find their aesthetic on the menus and iconography rather than plastering an almost cel-shared garish colour swatch on every surface, splatoon style. Either way I don’t see how bungie can hold any integrity over this now

[Feed Me @feedme]

I took notice from the beginning because Marathon had a futurism look that personally I think makes for incredible graphics and interface, and horrible environments /
