You still think the game is gonna make it to 2027?

Maybe they'll hit 2027 later today when people aren't at work.... oh, wait! You're not talking about the player numbers! :story:
 
I saw a guy in a random chatroom that i lurk constantly cope and seethe about all the playercount and steamcharts niggery going around the game and how the game was actually good, people just followed what nasty nasty detractors said like cattle and that he was having a blast
He just showed his steam library by date launched
Marathon was not played since April and currently uninstalled

With how fast the playercount is dropping I'll be surprised if they even bother with Season 3 in September.

I think they're contractually obligated to release season 3 because they sold a battle pass for it already.

Season 4 and beyond is incredibly unlikely as player counts hit the 1.5k range and matchmaking issues occur.

I'm already seeing on reddit Oceanic and Asian players struggling to find matches and it won't be long before European and NA servers follow.

Suicide Squad Kill The Justice League made it to Season 4 before throwing in the towel and by the time it dropped in December 2024 the daily peaks were around 2,500. 2 months later (and a year since release) they were about 500.

Will Marathon match those numbers? Tune in next time to find out, blast havers!

If Destiny 2's recent player numbers are any indicator, then dragging Marathon's corpse to the grave will do wonders for Bungie.

How quick people are to forget... D2 had worse numbers than Marathon up until the memorial service called the final update, where all the nostalgic and scorned have gathered in attendance for a final send off.

Yanking the plug on D2 wasn’t a mistake. Even when they have 100k+ players it’s still money down the drain. Apparently they never figured out how to monetize it in a way that would support 400 developers. This is partly why I think Marathon will never go F2P, what’s the purpose exactly? There’s really nothing to buy on the store to keep the ship afloat.

Anyways, D2 is not the cultural phenomenon like its fans make it out to be, it’s no Halo and never will be and so it's doomed to be a failure. Any game Bungie makes has to be an absolute home run to make up for the amount of money they squander making these things.

The biggest mistake Bungie made was spending a decade cultivating an audience of PvE players who treat competition like a vampire treats sunlight, then expecting them to embrace a high-stakes PvP game.

I couldn’t give a single shit about D2 or Bungie, but I wished both games could have co-existed and supported each other. This game won't ever be a home for them and twisting its current identity means it won’t be a home for anybody. As someone who played Halo in high school and in college, this shooter game has done more for me than Destiny ever did.

I’d like to see literally anybody else take a crack at either of these IPs, it's a shame really.
