  1. Sorry, but #Marathon is a failure.

    Sony has the ball in their court now. Players didn't resonate with the game, at all.

    My expectation? #Bungie will transform the game into a F2P, upsell cosmetics, and it that does not work, they'll try P2W and abandon it while they move forward with #Destiny3.

    If Destiny 3 isn't a colossal success, Bungie will be either sold or closed.

  6. It Seems ‘Destiny 2’ And ‘Marathon’ Cannot Properly Co-Exist At Bungie

  10. @chris I believe they invested too much on the name and forgot how niche the game is.

    If they would invested $50M and built from there, I assure you they would have more than 25K players.

    Anyway, I wonder how #Destiny3 is going to shape out, given the tarnished reputation of Bungie as of late. It's a husk of a studio to me.

  11. #Marathon is cooked

    youtube.com/watch?v=UQVelZ9dYRc

    I expect #Sony announcing #Destiny3 this year, while winding down #Bungie output for this extraction shooter.

    That was a good waste of $200M. They could have fixed #Destiny2 with that money.

  12. Yeah, I don't think #Marathon is going to survive.

    The game bleeds 5K gamers each week, currently 30K average.

    It sold 1.2M copies, but for the development cost, I don't think #Bungie will stay past the first expansion, unless they can pull out a Realm Reborn (they won't).

    It's obvious that Sony will push #Destiny3 into the studio given this failure.

  13. Well, the guys at #InsideGames took a page of the #Marathon 1.2M copies article.

    Is it really a flop?

    On average, each copy returns $30 to Sony. If the rumored $250M investment is true, they require over 8M copies to sell to "break even", without microtransactions.

    We will see what happens in the coming months if #Sony doubles down, or goes full ahead to #Destiny3.

  14. Afater a massive marketing campaign, and two weekends, #Marathon numbers look grim.

    Their real numbers will be set once #CrimsonDesert releases, making the game:

    a) Pay the debt: Ocassional updates, aggresive monetization.
    b) Cut the losses: Server shut down in June, layoffs.

    In both cases, #Sony will pivot #Bungie to #Destiny3. To me, it will be their "do or die".

  19. Sir, a third #Concord has hit #Steam.

    Jokes aside, I consider 80k "healthy", but we're talking about a free weekend and 50% retention. You want grow, no abandonment.

    I highly doubt #Marathon will sell 80k copies. For the amount Sony invested in this game, expect this game to die and rapidly pivot #Bungie to #Destiny3.

    #CrimsonDesert releases after 2 weeks and will kill Marathon.

  20. Ok @destinythegame let's get real because you are far beyond the realm where it is necessary to get real:

    -- Shut down Marathon
    -- Play it off as an out-of-season April Fools prank if you need
    -- Because you need
    -- Move all of those and all Destiny 2 employees onto a project code named Destiny 3
    -- Brush up on and actually internalize all the lessons people have learned from the wild and ongoing success of #Warframe, a sibling and far more successful game that does *not* hate its players and literally has a yearly in-person conference because **people are so fucking happy to play Warframe**
    -- Build #Destiny3 with those lessons in mind
    -- Release a fresh, albeit criminally late sequel to Destiny 2 that is built with love and hope in mind
    -- Reveal the project name is **drum roll please** #Destiny3
    -- Have a decent chance at saving what crumbs might remain of #Bungie's reputation

    #Destiny2

  21. #Destiny2 conspiracy theory: #Marathon is an elaborate psyop to warm up Destiny players to the idea of losing all their gear because #Destiny3 is actually coming this time and our vaults are gonna blow up again
