      You're all moronic, that art design was amazing and super unique, even if it isn't reminiscent of Marathon at all.

      Yeah I liked it honestly artwise, I'm not really sure what people think a modern Marathon aesthetic would look like exactly since it was just a boomer shooter with pretty standard graphics and sci fi art direction for the time, if anything to new aesthetics look more interesting

      Idk about the game itself though this is pretty risky to gamble an old IP's legacy and memory on an "extraction shooter" whatever the frick that is

        Marathon was actually a decently visually distinctive game. Durandal and Infinity had a lot of color compared to other shooters and the sprites/textures were mostly hand drawn giving everything a not-quite-cartoony look. Outside of the first game, Marathon didn't look like other FPS games of the era.

        • 10 months ago

          I think the textures/sprites might've been higher res than its contemporaries too. 2 and Infinity certainly have really good textures.

        Marathon 1 had a dark horror-ish sci-fi feel to it. Marathon 2 felt like it predated Unreal, and Marathon Infinity felt like it predated EYE Divine Cybermancy in more ways than one

          Cheers to that. I loved their games, but I still envied my friends playing C&C, Doom and Quake
          My Bungie journey was:
          Marathon 1, pirated on floppies
          Marathon 2 demo
          Marathon Infinity retail
          Myst 1 demo
          Oni
          Halo 1 through Reach

          Enjoyed every title up until Reach. Did not care for the haphazard campaign, but the custom games were incredible

          I never completed Marathon as a kid, I couldn't make it past the vacuum levels in either Marathon nor Infinity. Only five years ago or so did I complete them through aleph one, together with a few mod campaigns
          still holds up if you're into decent sci-fi imo, especially 2 and Infinity.

          You cheat your way into better loot by avoiding other cheaters in a closed map
          Find or loot it, run for the hills
          Oftentimes you need to wait for an opportunity (someone passing by that you can kill or other people fighting that you can finish off)

            basically you load into a map, search for loot, maybe kill other players for their loot and then you leave the map and do it again
            that's the entire game

          You go into a big map with limited/no gear and then collect the gear from around the map. You can take gear out when you leave and bring it back in with you next time you play. If you drop the gear or die then you lose it and have to find it again.
          There are other players in the map with you. They can kill you and take your gear.
          Depending on the game reaching something that could be described as "full kit" via looting can take anywhere from 20 minutes to several hours. This progress is usually lost in seconds.
          The goal of the gameplay is griefing. You sit on a mountain with a sniper rifle and shoot people trying to loot. Or you leave a valuable item in a room but put a landmine underneath it and wait in the next room over. Or you pick a random corner and hide there with a shotgun to shoot people who walk past.

    The art style is nu for the franchise, but this was just a teaser trailer. Who knows what else they will add.

        That's because extraction shooters ARE lame. Besides, anti-hacking is now so far behind the hackers every PvP game is basically fricked from the out.

        I think extraction shooters can be fun, it's just that everyone is copying Tarkov in it's hardcore approach. If it was more casual, it would be more fun. I can into detail, but I won't because you don't care anyway.

        As for the Anticheat, yeah, it really fricking sucks to be a multiplayer gamer nowadays. I think it's just because Publishers or Developers don't invest enough into anticheat software. They put that shit on the backburner and then they have the player bleed problem come bite them back in the ass.

            Anonymous

            There's multiple extraction points. Usually about 2 or 3. You can leave at any time but leaving takes time and alerts people to your location. And once the match goes on long enough, there's eventually only one extraction point and a final exfil everyone fights over. It can certainly be fun sometimes, and it can be tense running around the map knowing that at any point an enemy player can jump you for your loot, or you might find an opportunity to take out an enemy player and get their loot.
            Personally though, it just gets annoying when you get squads of people who just treat it as Warzone-lite.

          Look you do not need a 140IQ to enjoy Marathon but it is crazy how Doom and Quake simplified gaming, there was a time when people could tolerate having a Visual Novel inserted into their games to immerse themselves into the story.

              Hero archetype is different than that of the warrior, I'd imagine. Heroism is pure on the battlefield, just as it would be when carrying someone out of a housefire. But pure martial prowess and ruthlessness are separate.

                The two archetypes certainly overlap at points. Excessive bravery is a psychopathic trait; under the right context, being a cold blooded son of a b***h could save your life and others. SOG by John Plaster does a great job recounting heroism in war in hideous, bloody gunfights that are unimaginable to most people; definitely worth a read.

    You zoomers really need to understand something because you're next on the conveyor belt here. this game was a lot of childhoods to a bunch of unhinged schizophrenic nerds, it did that narrative, cinematic experience bullshit before Half-Life was even a twinkle in Gabe Newell's fat eye and it did so with profound effect. It's the only game series I can think of with a whopping three titles that people are still discussing what is just a hair short of 30 years later with intense passion and trying to understand this at-the-time (and arguably presently still) unparalleled game's nuances and mysteries.
    And we're seeing that childhood, and later adulthood centered around this monolith, being exploited by a bunch of butthole interns who work on a skinnerbox service game primarily while whipping around the one guy who was involved with the original property trying to convince you their misappropriation of a franchise they literally can't comprehend is perfectly acceptable.

        I know this is hard to understand for you projecting zoomers, who get all your opinions and thoughts from e-celebs, but there are people out there who actually play video games instead of just watching videos about them. Crazy concept, I know.

          He's mocking the same zoomers you are. And to play devil's advocate, zoomers aren't going to know about Marathon in the first place if not for word of mouth like that. I personally hadn't heard of it until he made those videos, and I'm glad that they exposed me to the series.

      first of all, no one gave a shit about the sequels. secondly, it was a dead IP. none of the original developers would touch the sequel.
      if you advocated for letting it stay dead, it'd be cringe but id get it-- but what would YOU want out of this stinky old IP? how is its story or presentation any more profound than the first book i find in the scifi section?
      so its only merit is being ahead of its time. wahooooooooooooooooo

              The Marathon community (the few dozen of us that existed) didn't want this, I don't know who asked for a Marathon reboot but it wasn't the actual fans of the games.

              Marathon and Durandal are pretty straightforward war between factions and you talk between their representatives, one is an A.I called Tycho if I recall correctly.

              You are thinking of Infinity which would be the equivalent to Bioware suddenly not sucking and releasing a continuation of Mass Effect 3 based on fan theories, namely the indoctrination ending and having flash back levels to ME1,2 and 3 to tie lose ends and correct plot holes.

              M1 and M2 both still have some cryptic lore stuff, such as the Gheritt White and Iamhero terminals

    I've never seethed so much over something so innocuous before, but here I am. I cannot think of a game less suited to become an extraction shooter. I know everyone will say it now, but I am one of the world's biggest Marathon fans. I've played damn near every mod and total conversion and I have an autistic love of the franchise and community. This announcement has me actually seething. This was the one franchise I never wanted to see remade because I knew they'd milk it and turn it into something unrecognizable. Nobody cared about this franchise except me and a handful of other people and it should've stayed that way.

    The original game's appeal is just built on the lore being laced with endless schizobabble and cryptic nonsense. I expected something extremely philosophical or well written when I went through all of it but it's the videogame equivalent of giving a deranged schizo a paintbrush and letting him paint, and then pondering about the meaning of his work. I don't see the appeal.

      It was always built as the spiritual successor to it. It literally was slated to release on Apple devices, the concept of the game including the first level is just a massive callback to what Marathon even is. The armor names, the UNSC is just the UESC, etc. It adds the whole holy war bullshit, but yea. I mean, its essentially the blueprint for Halo.

        There were infiltrator agents that exploded when they came near you.

          Those were manufactured by the Pfhor. Not real BOBs.

      That sekiguchi genetics website (look for the link earlier in the thread) seems to imply the players are using mass produced clones

        so this basically confirms it being a tarkov clone with the whole disposable clone bodies thing.

    The aesthetic is fricking cool but not what I expect from Marathon. Kind of like Wind Waker to Zelda reaction for me. It's different

    Marathon reboot where it retains the cold space atmosphere and it plays like Metroid Prime

    I'm eagerly waiting for the massive amounts of butthurt this game will cause as morons will jack off over muh lore only for Bungie to shit on them. Again.
    Rasputin died for a good cause, that being that maybe people will learn not to put blind faith in people selling them a product

      I wouldn't be so buttblasted if this wasn't called Marathon. But it is.

      Marathon is beloved for it's lore. It's not just Destiny tier shit where stuff is alluded to but rarely connects, it's actually well written, which is why this is extra painful that Marathon is now a fricking Tarkov clone.

        >actually well written
        My opinion on the subject aside, Bungie will do what they want and the people crying about it will be worth making fun of
