🗣marathon-general-chat

[kindred vigil]

Everything else is very much background and focuses on the current

it got our brains crine ❓

[stone grail]

I think I’m content not reading or watching it

[full gazelle]

there's some in shibuya like with choso and kenjacku but yeah

[kindred vigil]

To which barely gets elaborated or mentioned ever again

[full gazelle]

ik

Culling Games is just... Culling Games lol

Gege could make billions off spinoffs lmao

[kindred vigil]

and u would think choso + kenjaku + yuji would be highly explored but it just...doesnt

[kindred vigil]

It's because gege originally wanted jjk to be a battle Royale manga like culling games, he didn't really wanna do all the extra shit or the high school setting

he literally wanted to make hype moments and aura the manga

[full gazelle]

yeah :(

[sonic swan]

choso mentioned 🗣️

[kindred vigil]

culling games just suck because it picks up after a really good 2 arcs

[stone grail]

Still mad that one punch man became the thing it used to make fun of

[kindred vigil]

for real if it followed season 1 opm would be seen as the top anime oat

[full gazelle]

it's funny bro shit talks gojo yet makes him a literal god that kills people with aura

[stone grail]

It should have ended there

[kindred vigil]

Like culling games is really fun to read in full, it was MADE for animation honestly (cause it's all action mainly) but it's like lack of world building

[full gazelle]

choso GOAT

[sonic swan]

jinwoo lite

[worn knoll]

just rewatched the old trailer that shot of 3 glitches in formation hurts so bad man I really hope the game doesn't look like that in the end

[kindred vigil]

I mean the manga name is called sorcery fight or something like that so it's in the name

[sly spruce]

yeah i heard about that, real nice of bungie

[full gazelle]

OPM 🥀

[worn knoll]

(so go play them)

[sonic swan]

the ones from like 7 months ago?

[kindred vigil]

if u want world building go chainsaw man if you want fights go jjk simple as 1-2-3

if you want BOTH read one punch man

[scenic meteor]

What if I don’t want anime

[stone grail]

Chainsaw man pissed me off after awhile

[sonic swan]

breaking bad

[worn knoll]

Yeah, i don't mean the lighting i just mean like copy-paste characters i hope customization is accessible and varied enough that a party of 3 of the same class don't look like identical triplets

[kindred vigil]

go watch fight club or something like a fat lil chud

[stone grail]

Good start tho it had promise

[lyric wadi]

any news about console m&k support ?

[kindred vigil]

chainsaw man lost me after a arc in part 2 ngl

[sly spruce]

Why? 😭 Its a bit dated. I did see the fan made project that amped up its graphic and engine though

[stone grail]

Yup

[kindred vigil]

like ok what is Fujimoto genuinely doing and not in the usual "he's crazy way" like what is He actually doing

like now ur freeballing it fujimoto

[sonic swan]

in the best way possible, it’s bungie we’re talking about here. if there’s one thing they can do well is cool customization even if some of it is paid

[kindred vigil]

say this to a chainsaw man fan and they start talking about how u lack a brain or something

[sonic swan]

i am a csm fan but i respect that

[worn knoll]

They're dated, sure, but they have mouse aim, and if you can get used to it they're the best in their genre. And their story is canon to these new games, which was more the point. "Of course there will be Ai and aliens, it's Marathon" was more what I was saying with that.

[scenic meteor]

L bait

[kindred vigil]

like no dude after ||the church arc|| (manga spoiler) I don't understand what the fuck ur trying to give us anymore

[full gazelle]

How long is Chainsaw Man? I can only commit to JJK big anime wise.

[sly spruce]

All fun and games till people realize Titains void barrier is infinity but time manip instead of space manip

[kindred vigil]

anime wise not long at all, binge in one day (same with part 1 manga)

[sonic swan]

i’m so tempted to click on that manga spoiler

[worn knoll]

Idk how they're gonna pull it off on an overwatch skin system

[full gazelle]

The entirety of Chainsaw Man? If so I would watch.

[unborn badger]

so you don't have to guess if aliens and AI are after vault 7 cuz they def are and absolutely not limited to just vault 7 💀

[kindred vigil]

yeah you can binge season 1 and the movie in one day honestly

[full gazelle]

Fuck yeah.

[kindred vigil]

And the entirety of part 1 manga in one day

[proven kernel]

the only news is that there is no new news.

[sonic swan]

is that confirmed how it will work? skins in loot boxes or do you mean something else?

[kindred vigil]

I tried to get into fire force but bruh the fan service too much

[sonic swan]

watch gachiakuta

[worn knoll]

I mean like, set skins that alter one shell's entire appearance, with no minute customization. That's the model we've heard from everyone.

[kindred vigil]

when an anime has such fire designs but it's stuck to a g°°ners paradise

[sly spruce]

Oh. Yeah, its kinda why i was shocked at the handfull of charcters comment. we definitely will be reciving a lot more lore then just the few runners. Corporations are also going to be a major key aspect of the narrative.

[scenic meteor]

Every gacha game

[kindred vigil]

so real and true

[stone grail]

That’s most shonens

[kindred vigil]

So real and true x2

[jovial summit]

Good morning! Whats everyone up to?

[sonic swan]

ah i see what you mean. they did say they’re adding charms and stickers to guns but i think the full skin overhaul will be the way forward especially since its first person

[kindred vigil]

We're simultaneously talking anime and marathon lore and hero shooter decision old man

choose ur adventure 👀

[scenic meteor]

Goonas are where the money is at 😞

[jovial summit]

I’ll pass on the anime lol

[stone grail]

Audience in general

[full gazelle]

JJK fan service is peak and gay

[worn knoll]

Neither of which have anything to do with the originals, so goooo play them!!! Ok mida is important but they're not a corporation so it's not relevant. Same with UESC that's a government. Distinction is minimal but still.

[kindred vigil]

yeah look at ppl act when u say marathon reveal had jiggle physics on glitch like ok relax lol

like most models have physics on their body as a default I think

[stone grail]

It is true tho

[scenic meteor]

True that ya on demon time

[worn knoll]

I'll be honest, a sticker on someone's gun isn't gonna stop them looking goofy, non-immersive and identical next to their party if they're all the same class.

[sonic swan]

the corps in marathon remind me a lot of the sub factions in destiny 1. dead orbit for life

[kindred vigil]

jjk is the modern generation of DBZ (as in it made people like buff men)

[worn knoll]

2 people wearing the same skin should have a way to look different, this should be universal for every game tbh

[kindred vigil]

people wonder why ppl like buff men when DBZ he-man and shit was out in the 80-90s

[full gazelle]

facts lmao

[sonic swan]

are you even allowed to select the same hero in one party?

[stone grail]

Why are you acting like early jojo didn’t do that

[kindred vigil]

true.....

Jojo part1-3 are fuckinf TANKS holy shit

[worn knoll]

I mean, I guess I don't know that you are right now, but this whole conversation was spawned by me seeing 3 glitches running around together in the april trailer, so at least then you were

[kindred vigil]

Part 3 Dio without his yellow jacket 🤤

[full gazelle]

it wasn't cishet coded enough for the gojo girlies 🥀

[sly spruce]

I genuinely have no way of knowing If we will get any alien interaction before then 😭 . The anomoly is a thing though and I think the S'pht will be a boss fight at the end of the vault. I cant tell if I'm thinking too small or too big.

[stone grail]

Early part 4 manga also has buff dudes

[kindred vigil]

We all watching anime JoJo steel ball run right

[stone grail]

I will it’s my fav part

[kindred vigil]

I lwk skipped part 6 cuz I wanted to see steel ball run )and I got majorly spoiled for it)

[stone grail]

Gyro ☺️

[sonic swan]

i don’t think you’ll be able to in the full release. stacking heroes isn’t a great idea for game balance especially with parties being limited to 3 players

[full gazelle]

oki ima go.

[kindred vigil]

d4c is likey favorite stand design

[stone grail]

The name also is dope

[lyric wadi]

what is system requirements this game ?

[worn knoll]

Oh y'all wait it's marathon's 31st birthday what how didn't I remember

[full gazelle]

Marathon is a hero game.

Marathon is in its best timeline.

baaaaaai!

[kindred vigil]

and I like calamity, tho I think that's jojolion?

[worn knoll]

I have harsh words

[sly spruce]

I saw playthroughs with an explanation of the narrative. Im also currently playing warframe and I have to level up haha

[stone grail]

I hope they keep valentine voice actor from the game he made shouting d4c sound amazing

[lyric wadi]

any info

[full gazelle]

SCOOBY WHY

[kindred vigil]

DEE FO SHEE 🗣️🗣️

[worn knoll]

then why are you speculating about there being AI and aliens???? there obviously will be??? it's not a question?

[stone grail]

Still mad that pucci Va in the anime isn’t his game Va

[kindred vigil]

I like how diver down is said in the game too

[worn knoll]

I hope they do something, at least so much as a tweet or teaser

[kindred vigil]

Low-key the game actors LOWKenuinly better than some of the anime vas 👀

[stone grail]

Most of them yeah

Pucci especially is very good

Then again im a pucci simp

[kindred vigil]

gg buddies a dio follower

wait oh my God PART 7 DIO PART 7 DIO ANIMATED ‼️‼️‼️‼️

top dio design animated 👀👀

[stone grail]

Diego

The fall off your horse scene better be good

[kindred vigil]

Part 7 is gonna be such a fun watch I knew it's gonna be peak when they had the audio design that grates ur fucking ears in the trailer

[scenic meteor]

Doesn’t dio kick puppies

[tepid bane]

Happy anniversary! Thirty-one years go by fast.

[kindred vigil]

yes he was on his deroid dw

[sly spruce]

They haven't revealed much of the game yet? Am I not allowed to keep my expectations in alignment?

[maiden token]

no it doesn't, it took 31 years

[kindred vigil]

genuinely I know dio is evil but he did not have to kick a fucking dog for legit zero reason

[stone grail]

Oh he does he also does far worse

[kindred vigil]

jojo part 3 scene 🤫

[stone grail]

Even in part 1 he does worse things to dogs

[worn knoll]

I mean like. Yeah I guess but. It's a canon expansion. So we know those things exist. It'd be weird if there was a chance that the entire existence of AI or Aliens had been retconned and had suddenly nothing to do with the story. Especially seeing as we've seen an alien (compiler) and know durandal has a voice actor (ben starr).

[scenic meteor]

I was gonna watch Jojo but I don’t like overly bad villains idk

[stone grail]

Dio is so evil that he’s a joy to watch

[maiden token]

"I hate cake that is cakey"

[kindred vigil]

Tbh I think dio is the only vilian that over does it (in a fun way)

[sly spruce]

JJK is alot more bleach coded, and I like that tbh

[kindred vigil]

But that's kinda like his character,

[tepid bane]

Not at the speed the Marathon is going.

[stone grail]

Angelo is pretty bad

[kindred vigil]

JJK is highly inspired by bleach and hxh said by the author himself

When I started to read bleach I. IMMEDIATELY catches on to what he got inspired by

[stone grail]

I like bleach 👍

[maiden token]

me too 🤤

[sonic swan]

i just started watching bleach

[kindred vigil]

like the quincies, the hollows everything literally caught on to me by chapter 12 lol

jjk literally has a group named Q that dresses in all white 👀

[scenic meteor]

Tetra hop on

[kindred vigil]

When you reach bleach and read shonen 5 years after bleach u can soooo tell a lot of things were inspired by bleach

I low-key need to go back on reading bleach I'm at like chapter 20 or sum

[maiden token]

actually cos I need to get away from this weeb talk

[kindred vigil]

ok wow 😒

[proven kernel]

nope, you’re stuck.

[scenic meteor]

I would but I’m still at work for another hour 😞

[kindred vigil]

Just say you hate me and want me to die #2020methods

[maiden token]

I would but mods 🙄

[proven kernel]

👀

[maiden token]

MISH I'M JOKING

[proven kernel]

👀 👀

[kindred vigil]

char called me poop and got a week mutenso yea I think insults that don't look like obvious jokes will get u outta here

[iron blaze]

🖕

[proven kernel]

need to be careful with jokes too, because we might not know they’re jokes.

[maiden token]

I thought you said mutenso as like a goofy way to say muted

[kindred vigil]

well idk if it was the poop comment or insulting my intelligence was

[kindred vigil]

pedguin what do u genuinely do

[sly spruce]

That's true, I have no idea what the narrative will look like, so at the same time I cant tell someone what to expect from the game. Alien combat or to what extent the Ai might even be doing is a toss up. Like we know the Gardner and the Winnower is a thing that exists but that's it.

[kindred vigil]

like you low-key be existing

[kindred vigil]

yeah I know I went for a walk and it was cold as all hell

[scenic meteor]

Let my Pedguin exist

[kindred vigil]

The tree I walk by has all its leafs fallen out

[kindred vigil]

His existence is my warmth to a cold world

cuz he's a 🐧 they're quite warm I tink

[scenic meteor]

L rizz

[kindred vigil]

I wasn't tryna rizz

[sonic swan]

guy is jester maxing

[kindred vigil]

I jestermaxx daily here dw

Honestly I wouldn't blame u if anyone gets 2nd hand embarrassment from my messages

[iron blaze]

always

[stone grail]

Minecraft movie is the worst thing to happen to blocks since balls

[sly spruce]

the vibes that come from those manga's are immaculate. I also love how gege made its power systyem feel like an rpg game. simple with complex applications.

[kindred vigil]

yeah, I agree it really ties in that the more SIMPLE the ability is actually harder to understand

[worn knoll]

I just had an "AKIRA! AKIIIRAA!" moment remembering when once upon a time, long eons ago when I was a youngster, I shaped my whole online persona around "jester" theming and it was really cringe

[kindred vigil]

Cuz in games usually the simplest things has the hardest techs

[worn knoll]

now I shape my whole online persona around a faction from a video game, and it's actually less cringe by a marginal amount

[sonic swan]

like a literal medieval jester??

[kindred vigil]

like sukuna shrine and dismantle and cleave is literally just cutting things in different ranges yet it's the most dangerous technique cuz how he uses it

[sly spruce]

I was just about to say that LOL

[kindred vigil]

To which he learn to make a fire arrow and a ||incomplete domain|| out of

[sly spruce]

bro justs cuts

[worn knoll]

yes, also in like a cosmic comedy absurdist-nihilist way. it was so bad.

♡♤♦♣~I sent every message like this~♣♥♤♢

[kindred vigil]

Gojo is super simple aswell yet super dangerous

[worn knoll]

My boyfriend still won't let me live it down

[kindred vigil]

infinity just slows things to a crawl, six eyes is literally just better senses

[sonic swan]

i’m actually cackling bro i’ll remember this every time i ever feel embarrassed about something i did when i was younger

[worn knoll]

Some of my oldest accounts still have hints of it on things you can't change. My riot account, for instance, is still named something like "TheJesterLord"

[worn knoll]

Please do

[sly spruce]

Gojo is also blessed with two abilities as well. He lucky as heck man

Space manipulation is pretty hacky stuff

[sonic swan]

the e-calling card is honestly kinda sick tho

the jester was here..

[kindred vigil]

and yuji is just straight punching and yet he can always adapt to which is why he's my goat

[full gazelle]

jjk s3 bulk drop or episode weekly drop?

[kindred vigil]

Think it's episode weekly

[full gazelle]

yuji stans lowkey winning everytime I say that as a gojo stan

[kindred vigil]

speaking of season 3 the new style is fire asf

[full gazelle]

I prefer that tbh

[kindred vigil]

I mean they were gonna need a low detailed style cuzz all the fights

[full gazelle]

agreed it is genuine art

[kindred vigil]

but it's genuinely so expressive and fluid

[full gazelle]

mappa cooked hellaaa

[sonic swan]

i miss season 1 art style. i know im alone on this one

[worn knoll]

wasn't my only one, i tried to have a little fucking e-signature of some kind for a very long time. I wish I could remember more, they were all so self-important and hilariously bad

[kindred vigil]

like they made naoya (bum ass) cool 😭

[kindred vigil]

Season 1 style is peak too but s1 had like 3 main fights so more time for details

I like the thick lineart style of it

[full gazelle]

I've loved all of them

[sonic swan]

it just felt so gritty and raw in a sense

[kindred vigil]

I think every style they chose fits the seasons perfectly honestly

[full gazelle]

yuji black flash the reference impact frame at this point

[sonic swan]

what else did you have

[kindred vigil]

did they ever release the op of s3 early

[full gazelle]

no clue

[worn knoll]

I know one was like a quote or something, I don't remember from who, and I did just plain ~this~ for a while. //this was a big one for a little bit// idk what else I'm talking middle school era I only remember jester bc...well you don't forget something that corny, but also like I said I am still tormented for it by friends and loved ones who knew me at the time

I really wanted the internet to be like

[kindred vigil]

tho only thing I probably don't like abt s3 is hakaris voice idk if Zoro va fits him but I'm sure he'll be cool nevertheless

[worn knoll]

90s hacker movie internet

[sonic swan]

this shit is honestly hilarious

[full gazelle]

I wanted The Wired.

[sonic swan]

i’m wheezing at the mere idea

[worn knoll]

and honestly, did I ever grow out of it? look at me. It's only a miracle I'm not sending every message like it's out of a terminal like some folks here

(no shade, that is corny, but I do love it)

[sonic swan]

please do bro

[full gazelle]

we gotta see bro throw ass and yap before we judge

[kindred vigil]

I think he'll be cool it just throws me off cuz all I hear is zoro

[sonic swan]

at least here its normalized and you won’t be looked at strangely

[full gazelle]

I use zsh daily I feel ya

I've played a bit of og marathon 1

I gotta beat them all

[kindred vigil]

idk if I'm playing marathon 1 I hate doom like games

[scenic meteor]

Same

[sonic swan]

i’m not

[scenic meteor]

Not interested in og marathon at all

[full gazelle]

valid, personally I fw it hella I just have a massive backlog

[full gazelle]

it's actually really interesting, lore is a worthwhile read. but I'm getting the bulk of mine through marathon 2026

[sly spruce]

You don't like marathon? or am I reading this wrong?

[kindred vigil]

let's play calculator game twin

[tepid bane]

american job market is washed fr tho

[worn knoll]

RIIIIGHT

[sly spruce]

Im tired of not saying it!!!!

[kindred vigil]

I wish sega hyenas came out

[sonic swan]

the people criticizing it for looking like a playground just don’t get it

it’s art.

[maiden token]

gamers allergic to colour

[kindred vigil]

Brown filter of the fps mid 2000s and mid 2010s and it's consequences

[sly spruce]

people are also calling it roblox.

as a fan of mirror edge, this artsyle hits sooooo different

i think some people are doing that nonesense on purpose too

[sonic swan]

most definitely

[kindred vigil]

They are for twitter engagements cuz it pays u

[sonic swan]

it’s become so popular to hate on games and movies as soon as any controversy or negativity surrounds it

[kindred vigil]

just say concord 2 and that's rent

[sonic swan]

honestly

[worn knoll]

Idk it didn't even need any. I don't know if I just remember it differently but people literally just said "concord 2" because idk it wasn't for them or had a strange art style and it caught on. The plagarism thing only came out AFTER we were already at peak mindless haters

[sly spruce]

Youtube has this share of brainless takes too. I am not arguing about marathon on twitter😭 id rather let UESC buss shots at me

[kindred vigil]

lwk concord fucked up gaming discussions and discourse anything with slight colour in fps just gets called concord without nuance and immediately shrugged off

No one's willing to try anything new these days which I understand money is more important than ever but man

[sonic swan]

and arc raiders fans who think both games can’t exist or both games can’t be good like give it a rest

[worn knoll]

Everything's fucked, no one's functionally literate they react and that's it. Logic doesn't matter, their fucking eyes don't matter, just their knee-jerk feeling about something.

[kindred vigil]

I find myself a victim to that sometimes makes myself upset cause I used to give anything a chance just a negative environment will make others negative

our negativity needs to be directed to damn ceos and executives, the people who deserve it

[worn knoll]

Everything's "not that deep" everything's "too serious" everything's "problematic medias" I'm gonna explode I swear to god it's all gone to the dogs

[kindred vigil]

like 70% reason why we get the stuff we get cuz of ceos, investors and execs

[sonic swan]

i believe we do this sometimes because there’s so much negative things happening that we don’t have the time or energy to give it a chance. it’s very black and white

[kindred vigil]

Yes online space is very much more impulsive than ever

[tepid bane]

This is why absurdism is the optimal strategy.

[kindred vigil]

And unfortunately the people who make these narratives of games are stupid ass people who just grift for the sake of it

[trim summit]

can any dev confirm if we’re getting a Marathon x Blue Archive collab?

[sly spruce]

yeah, ''concord 2'' lol, its crazy because i don't even remember concord even being in an add. it had bad marketing and marathon is widely known atp

[sonic swan]

release the dire marsh files

[glacial bane]

yeah well

[kindred vigil]

concord was a multitude of thosuand reasons why it flopped but UNFORTUNATELY it had to be a hero shooter which means all hero shooters suck and games with colour suck

like no it just genuinely didn't appeal to no one

[tepid bane]

We have too many hero shooters on the market, and I for one am happy that Marathon is moving away from that format.

[kindred vigil]

ok buddy don't be a fool them renaming the runners isnt taking away the hero shooter aspect lol

[tepid bane]

That makes a game a hero shooter?

[scenic meteor]

Not at all

[trim summit]

they should go with the Blue Archive route ngl

[kindred vigil]

they're still the same design philosophy and characters just renamed

[worn knoll]

Everyone grifts. Grifting is all there is. Even if they don't know it. They're just jumping from wagon to wagon trying to make social currency. It's already lost because people are mixing their ironic humor with their genuine beliefs so they can't confront themselves. So many believe in a righteousness, a correctness and moral superiority that is inherent to whatever ideology they first grab at, but couldn't name if asked. Nothing beside remains. Logic, rationality, art, it's all gone and dead to the common internet user. A barren wasteland.

[maiden token]

holy essay

[dreamy warren]

Nuh uh

[worn knoll]

Sorry got too serious there Ahem. Haha silly ironic funny haha

[tepid bane]

There is more to it.

[kindred vigil]

do tell me

I'm not adverse to the runners but I'm not going to pretend it's literally not the same shit but renamed

[worn knoll]

It's barely two paragraphs worth of text if you stretch it I swear to god I WILL SHOVE A BOOK DOWN YOUR THROAT

[dreamy warren]

Tenno

[worn knoll]

Almost lost my cool there

[maiden token]

don't threaten me with a good time 🙄

books 🤤

[kindred vigil]

I agree logic and rationally is lost, actually, I'm not doing it right now with my current conversation 💔

I too am an impulsive prick

[dreamy warren]

Tell me the difference between the idea of runners and warframes

[worn knoll]

Not really. They changed to heroes, realized the common opinion is "that ruins everything you've set up with the lore and creates a huge dissonence" and are just like reversing it in text because they can't remove the gameplay elements.

[worn knoll]

Nah you're rational and right and good bc you agree with me 🤗

[kindred vigil]

they're set characters with a history and lore behind them according to their set history ? Isn't that what heros are within the game context of one

[kindred vigil]

well that's called biasm 👀

[dreamy warren]

Which one

[maiden token]

Neeyth is this bait?

[worn knoll]

No, no, they undid that part. That was what they were gonna do, but they reverted it. Now it's exactly a tenno to warframe situation.

[sly spruce]

well, Apex for example is really a battle royal, but has legends which some people consider "heroes". Marathon with "runners" won't escape that criticism.

[worn knoll]

Shells now, we're the runners, thank god

[maiden token]

how does giving a character a backstory suddenly make a game a hero shooter?

[kindred vigil]

it doesn't I'm just over yapping without thinking 1 sec

[dreamy warren]

If theres character based abilities.... id say thats a hero

[worn knoll]

I mean if it has characters to choose from, with personalities and histories, and ability sets...what stops it from being a hero shooter?

[sly spruce]

I thought shells were skins?

[maiden token]

but you can easily have a hero shooter without any of those aspects

[dreamy warren]

Thats why its called heros of might and magic 5 bbyyyy yo hero. Gots some abilities 🗿

[maiden token]

just like you can have games with huge amounts of backstory and it not be a hero shooter

[kindred vigil]

what I WANT to say, is that the runners have an set ability, based off what it is, and they used to be set characters,

Renaming them doesn't exactly remove those set abilities, it's still in its function and pvp a hero shooter just renamed not a class like battlefield or sum

[sonic swan]

shells are like war frames no?

[worn knoll]

No, the bodies are Shells, we are Runners, the skins are just customization applied to the Shells, through WEAVEWEAR laser-printed NEWSKIN. I think are the terms.

[kindred vigil]

But like now they're just like pre made armors like a Warframe lore wise

[worn knoll]

yes but less bespoke and personal, more generic and mass-manufactured

[dreamy warren]

Thats what im sayin

[kindred vigil]

But I'm saying in its function and pvp it can still have that hero aspect like an apex

[maiden token]

they did say in the vidoc that you inhabit the shell's personality matrix

which is basically just them rolling back that the shells were going to be "heroes" but now aren't

[worn knoll]

Yeah no gameplay wise it still is. Heroes they just reverted the way it ruined the lore.

[kindred vigil]

That's what I'm trying to say, gameplay wise it's still functions the same as heros, not about lore

[sly spruce]

Im glad that they gave that info because it feels more personal.

[dreamy warren]

Idk seeing several thousand of the same warframe step in and out of a market sounds mass manufactured to me... you literally craft the warframes on your ship

[worn knoll]

Yeah, the personality matrix is a good in-between point. Makes sense you'd need alterations to know how to optimally use cybernetics you'd never interfaced with. And explains why you might say something in a specific shell that you wouldn't otherwise say.

[kindred vigil]

this convo has been looped 3 days in a row I think we're all collectively crine

[worn knoll]

Hand-crafted, you said it yourself

[unkempt parcel]

Do you own arc

[tepid bane]

Most folks would consider that a class, not a hero.

[kindred vigil]

No I don't own arc raiders

[worn knoll]

If it's got a set face, then it is a hero. Also the distinction is so small.

[kindred vigil]

I think this is why ppl say heros shooters don't exist this is too much definitions

[tepid bane]

Does that make Team Fortress a hero shooter?

[unkempt parcel]

I play UwUwatch everyday

[worn knoll]

YES???

It was the first one????????? OVERWATCH WAS CALLED A TF2 CLONE

[dreamy warren]

A character doesnt have to be a hero fir it to be a hero shooter🗿cus then who would they fight

[kindred vigil]

only games that can be a hero shooter is overwatch and rivals cuz how they're set up, they are quite literally heroes

[unkempt parcel]

Rivals is a bad mobile game.

[scenic meteor]

Imo hero shooters come from their customization of the individual character the only thing that separates Apex champs from Marathon champs is the ability augments which in an extraction shooter not guaranteed options 24/7

[tepid bane]

Perfect. Now what if the heroes didn't have a set face, voice, or background? Are they still heroes?

[sonic swan]

a hero shooter is characters with different personalities and abilities is it not?

[dreamy warren]

No... tank, dps, healer.... class... character having abilities only IT has hero

[unkempt parcel]

Everything is a hero shooter then…

[maiden token]

man who actually cares?

[sonic swan]

revelation..

[kindred vigil]

ur right

[scenic meteor]

True

[kindred vigil]

the whole house mad.png

[sonic swan]

we’re all hero shooters

[worn knoll]

No. If it's just a set of abilities/specific items that can be applied to a custom character or set of choices it's a class, like battlefield.

[maiden token]

just play the game and find out if you like whatever they shit out fr

[kindred vigil]

Solider 76!? We're all heros now!?

[nimble canyon]

Class shooter. Not hero.

[unkempt parcel]

I’m just a bitter old man

[sonic swan]

that’s right kid for $40

[maiden token]

aurian please stop, dont spin the wheel again 😭

[kindred vigil]

Tetra keep it 💯 with me okay ur British so I know u will

be honest is everyone here on "old man fights cloud" timing

[tepid bane]

The difference for me is that heroes have a distinct personality, attitude, voice, and backstory. Classes are anonymous, or don't have emphasis placed on their characterisation.

[nimble canyon]

Why? Valve has always advertised such as what I just say.

But whatever.

[maiden token]

cos they keep looping the same argument and I want it to end 😭

[lament geode]

Extraction shooter

[kindred vigil]

cuz like if we sit down and think we all always disagree in any conversation this chat has

[tepid bane]

Excellent. In that case it seems that Marathon is certainly going the way of a class shooter, and moving away from heroes?

[sonic swan]

whatever i’m just gonna shoot with my heroes to extract my loot

[worn knoll]

Yeah, so we're still in the hero phase. Until there's multiple voices and faces to choose from, they can call blackbird whatever they want, she's still a hero. Not textually, but from a gameplay perspective. In-game, 3 "recon" players will all look like the same person.

[kindred vigil]

but I don't disagree with you cuz I like you 😏 #biasm

[worn knoll]

It's moving AWAY from heroes, but it's still a hero shooter, functionally.

[tepid bane]

I think Bungie is moving away from this.

[maiden token]

where is he ro-wing to?

[kindred vigil]

what

[full gazelle]

its not moving away from heros lmao

[maiden token]

he ro
where?

[scenic meteor]

Tetra what’d you eat today

[full gazelle]

when enter a lobby you choose a hero

[tepid bane]

It certainly is.

[maiden token]

like rowing a boat

[scenic meteor]

You ate a boat?

[kindred vigil]

ok ok ok besides heros I have a question

[full gazelle]

🥱

[maiden token]

sure

[sonic swan]

🎤

[kindred vigil]

do we think marathon offers anything genuinely new and unique to this genre y/n

[worn knoll]

I'm sure they are, the feedback was overwhelmingly "Ziegler don't fuck this up Ziegler listen to me don't fuck this up." and they're pivoting, but there's only so much you can do to your hero designed game to make it more classes

[kindred vigil]

and don't say art style

[maiden token]

other than being more accessible and it being a super tight bungie shooter?
no
the art style maybe

[quiet pulsar]

storywise technically it's not hero shooter (mercenary-shooter)

[scenic meteor]

Considering there is no hero shooter extraction shooter yea

[sonic swan]

bodies decaying 💯

[kindred vigil]

Delta Force gng ❓

[quiet pulsar]

delta force is a hero shooter lol

[scenic meteor]

That game ain’t real bot slop

[full gazelle]

yeah I agree with this but I'm gunna wait for release

[worn knoll]

yes, rpg-esque buildcrafting. I think people are ignoring that, the synergy between different buffs and attachments and shit.

[kindred vigil]

I don't think marathon offers anything unique gameplay wise outside of cores

[tepid bane]

If the Destroyer shell were to have multiple variants which introduced different voices and body types like what I've been asking for since April, would that make Marathon a class shooter, or a hero shooter?

[sonic swan]

tbh i’m playing for the art style / aesthetic mainly

[kindred vigil]

and I don't think that would be enough to hold people over long term especially if u could buy em

[worn knoll]

they talk about it, you can make an invisibility build for destroyer, or a speed build for void

[quiet pulsar]

they need to be unique in story

[full gazelle]

Well technically The Division did this first, but yeah I agree.

[maiden token]

I'm excited for marathon because it blends everything I'm already familiar with into a genre I've always wanted to get into but has been too hardcore to bother so far.

but is it boundary pushing in terms of a shooter game? nah I don't think so

[worn knoll]

also narrative. community narrative, storytelling through puzzle solving, and actual depth to an extraction shooter's lore.

[sonic swan]

are you also an extraction shooter noob?

[kindred vigil]

yeah but I said gameplay in my original question I know art style and lore is uniquely to like any game m
Prob

[worn knoll]

Everyone ignores it in the "first extraction shooter" category so why stop there 🤷‍♀️

[full gazelle]

Actually if you think about it this might be why it IS different. It's accessible but offers a lot to work with. Low skill floor extraction hero shooter.

[nimble canyon]

Divison 1 Survival Mode my beloved.

[maiden token]

ye I tried tarkov for like 2 weeks and was getting quests done but I was always getting domed :D
deffo skill issue

[worn knoll]

Well like I said buildcrafting. Maximizing specific stats through attachments and implants and stuff.

[kindred vigil]

yea I agree with u

[sonic swan]

my brother just another me

[full gazelle]

💛

[kindred vigil]

but other than that likeee would that hold people long term

[maiden token]

Marathon is unique
but that doesn't make it boundary pushing

tho I guess there's an argument that shooters are just a solved science and there's nothing more to do other than repackage already brilliant mechanics into new packages

[kindred vigil]

I'm scared in the era of "top builds" search on YouTube being a popular thing it's gonna make it stale and make new players quit, I'm primarily scared of invis crutches

[worn knoll]

Yeah. 100%. I think that's the main thing with classes, I think as long as the abilities can be customized (check) and it's more so a "suite" that's locked to a class, and then the face and voice and yk...general appearance can be customized (not a check yet) then it's class-based. If it's set abilities, set personality/face, it's hero-based. They're different flavors of the same thing

[maiden token]

just play blackbird 🙄

[full gazelle]

Bungie is gunna be cursed with genre identity until the end of time lol. Halo was pretty clear cut, but Destiny?

Group A: "It's an MMORPG!"
Group B: "No it's a First Person Looter Shooter!"
Bungie: "Actually guys, its an Action MMORPG :D"

Marathon: Uhhhhhhhhhhhh

[kindred vigil]

of course thats not a defined, everyone plays different but you know how meta slaves get

[sonic swan]

i can’t see myself playing marathon constantly like i would an mmo but probably whenever updates drop or an event is going on. that’s just me personally

[worn knoll]

Gonna be so many complaints about invis i'm so scared it'll get one of those really bad nerfs they give to things everyone hates that makes them useless (think hunt showdown flashbangs) and it winds up being like 50% opacity instead of invisible.

[full gazelle]

Yeah this

[kindred vigil]

fps is like a Lego same building everyone gets but different imaginations type shit do u feel me 🧠

business owners think this. 🧠

[sonic swan]

i remember in destiny 1 when invisibility got nerfed

good times

[maiden token]

crazy analogy

[worn knoll]

same as any other ES. You don't really compete for attention in the ES market, you compete for style. They all play the same (open game, get scared shitless trying to loot, suffer, progress, die, progress, die, progress, finish, reset, do it all again) so it's just down to preference. All they need is a different gameplay and art style to "hold" people, because Extraction Shooters are endlessly fun to anyone who likes them.

[kindred vigil]

though. BUngie has something no one can replicate and it's their gunplay I think that'll have to be their strong suit, please don't pull a destiny where we use abilities more than guns

[sonic swan]

i agree. they should lean into the unique mods and weapons

[worn knoll]

400+ mods doesn't worry me

[sly spruce]

if people hate invis, Recon will have high pick rates to counter it

[tepid bane]

Excellent. I hope Bungie does the right thing and moves towards anonymous shells, with each class having multiple body types and voices to choose from.

[scenic dragon]

not really

[worn knoll]

I agree

[maiden token]

from the vidoc they seem to be leaning into both. but the abilities seem more passive rather than just grenade lobbing and supers

[full gazelle]

Agreed. Although I'm not sure how I feel about the gunplay:ability ratio

[sonic swan]

golden gun super 😟

[maiden token]

feel free to elaborate but I probably wont listen since we've been off this subject for yonks

[kindred vigil]

I really hope so, I do not want abitlies to be overturned or mainly used, I want them to be additives to weapons than the main thing like destiny did it

I miss using weapons more in destiny than abitlies, way more engaging

[maiden token]

I think if they did it would ruin the purpose of extracting weapons fr, so I agree heavy

[scenic dragon]

tl;dr if you skip the elaborate characterization you just have a class-based shooter

[kindred vigil]

cuz I'm playing the games for the guns, not fucking to spam my super over and over

which is why I lwk despise 3.0 verb weapon perks

[tepid bane]

Each class in Destiny has abilities which essentially guarantee a few kills.

[maiden token]

so if you stripped all the backstories and setting from Overwatch, you would see that as a class shooter?

[stray ocean]

DEAD AHHH GAME. Good Morning😹 😭😹

[kindred vigil]

Finally ur back to saying good morning and goodnight ✌️

w manners

[tepid bane]

If each class had a few voices and body types to choose from? Yes.

[sly spruce]

Abilities made destiny pvp really fun but I also understand the criticism

[kindred vigil]

yes cuz at the time it was unique but now it's a boring thing to see all the time especially with prismatic

[maiden token]

no I mean, just overwatch with no back stories

like the exact game

[kindred vigil]

starting to make me miss prime sparebenders and I hated that shit

[worn knoll]

No that's what I meant, I elaborated further on in the conversation.

[maiden token]

this is so much typing for a yes or no question

[scenic dragon]

yeah arguably, although you would also need to eliminate a lot of the visual component that makes the classes diverse

[scenic dragon]

becauses that's characterizaton too

[kindred vigil]

go away I'm not saying that to be mean but to save u a headache

[scenic meteor]

guys we still on this hero shooter bs

[sonic swan]

did they increase the super acquisition rate in destiny 2 or something? never played so i wouldn’t know how it is

[worn knoll]

If they've got set abilities, personalities and a voice they're heroes, if they've got a set of abilities (preferably customizable), customizable/otherwise multiple unique characters, and voices to choose from, then it's a class.

[kindred vigil]

I'm not but like some ppl r I think I got my personal definition of one down by now

[scenic dragon]

besides afaik no one was calling team fortress 2 a hero shooter back in the day

[worn knoll]

it was the only one. No one called doom a doom clone

[maiden token]

but on the flip side CoD has characters you can pick who have huge back story, like Captain Price
not a hero shooter tho

so again, I think the point stands that there's nothing that particularly defines a hero shooter

[kindred vigil]

isss all about the setting and the lore, cuz with my hypocritical sayings Warframe should be a hero shooter,

and also that hero shooters may not actually exists and was a loose term that got badly popularized

[sonic swan]

guy is spittin

[worn knoll]

everything's a loose term that got badly popularized

[kindred vigil]

I think we need to fix terms cause ARPGS are called action rpgs but it refers to Diablo only games ???

[worn knoll]

nothing's defined. nothing ever will be. a thousand years of language will never define the SOUL NEEYTH

[scenic dragon]

CoD single player has captain price, but your multiplayer character is just a generic TF141 rando or a ranger or spetsnaz or whatever

the only thing that really separates a hero shooter from a class based shooter is the personalities

[kindred vigil]

whymy saying my name in caps what I do

that gen alpha brain rot must be crazy

[maiden token]

sword fighting in the UK is like pokemon battles but instead of the person ur battling having a question mark appear over their head as they walk towards you, they instead yell "what u saying bruva??" and unsheath their blade

[kindred vigil]

idk what country is good for me every time I look one up it's a bunch of racist content for some reason

[sonic swan]

[kindred vigil]

I just don't wanna be here

[worn knoll]

No one wants to be anywhere anymore. The moon is our only option. Save up for space rocket. This is the only rational financial choice.

[maiden token]

[wooden roost]

[kindred vigil]

I'll tell u when they do an actual genuine performance patch and not just "we increased performance"

They did ADD more graphic options and shit though, so you may be able to customize it better

[scenic meteor]

[kindred vigil]

I think u can turn off shadows and shit now

[sonic swan]

how long has this server been up

[kindred vigil]

I think for a year

[sonic swan]

damn that’s impressive

[worn knoll]

speak for yourself tbh I'm actually driven insane by how chill people are handing over agency to algorithms

[sonic swan]

over 300k members

[kindred vigil]

Idk when the arg started I joined a day before the twitch reveal

[worn knoll]

ARGs draw people in

[sonic swan]

ah

[kindred vigil]

No what I'm saying is using ai to ragebait us is not going to work, we're not in support but we honestly dgaf if ur gonna rage bait about it

but I'm saying SOME people have more knee jerk reactions to ai 👀

[warm granite]

lmao

[scenic meteor]

why are so many people ARG fiends dark and darker did the same thing

[warm granite]

bro read reddit and is a philosopher now

[kindred vigil]

I hate ai with all my heart but lwk ai rage bait kinda funny

[worn knoll]

I'm in college partially for philosophy you're not far off

[scenic meteor]

bro got da reddit professor gg

[warm granite]

change your degree program to engineering while you still can imo

[worn knoll]

AAA budget ARGs hit different

[scenic meteor]

i see

[kindred vigil]

it degrees for everyone

[sonic swan]

oh yea then what am i thinking right now

[kindred vigil]

w pr answer

[worn knoll]

two fingers to forehead like explodes your pancakes guy uhhhh hrrmmnnnn...letter B.....

[glacial bane]

I understand

[sonic swan]

i understand it now

[kindred vigil]

what do u do when u catch urself getting jaded by the state of the world and no longer put nuance in ur thoughts

[scenic meteor]

Tim hop tf on

[sonic swan]

talk to family and friends to not deep it too hard

[kindred vigil]

well family is out the window for that one

[warm granite]

its a normal part of life imo

[sonic swan]

well you got penguin at least

[scenic meteor]

i would recognize i cant change the state of the world by myself and keep it pushing

[warm granite]

everyones got intrusive thoughts and all that jazz

[edgy socket]

Is your name satire

[kindred vigil]

true I'm just little bob in this world full of Squidward

[edgy socket]

Minion or the bob for the day

[scenic meteor]

you can change the world within your bubble and thats all that matters as long as your bubble is acceptable

[worn knoll]

I expand my knowledge base in some way or another to retain psychological agency over the situation, but that's a personal neurosis and unlikely to work for you.

[warm granite]

neeyth eventually you maybe have your own kids or hopefulyl live next to other family and thats what keeps you grounded imo. that is what works for most people

[glacial bane]

its your brain telling you need a break from the doom scrolling. dont put the world on your shoulders 👍

[edgy socket]

For me it’s my religion that keeps me grounded

[glacial bane]

if you want to change the world though you should meet with other people and organize. best thing you can do 👍

[kindred vigil]

I just wanna live in the now and myself without being told this has this morally bad thing attached and this has that and you can't do this and that and the third

[sonic swan]

our parents likely went through the same thoughts and just said fuck it and kept it pushing

[warm granite]

nah ive worked in the space since 2007 and like to oppose the doomers

[edgy socket]

Delete Twitter and just enjoy what you want to enjoy

[kindred vigil]

I don't use twitter

[edgy socket]

Well that’s good

[sonic swan]

but twitter has the best sauce 🙁

[edgy socket]

Maybe take a break from 24/7 being on discord too lol

[warm granite]

im assuming youre younger...? idk. but youll naturally stop caring as you get older

[scenic meteor]

you shouldnt worry about being having something morally bad attached to you as long as your respectable and not rude about a sensitive topic

just be kind gang

[glacial bane]

although you shouldnt stress about every little thing in the world, you should still care about stuff. do your best to be the best version of yourself. dont be selfish 👍

[worn knoll]

You speak in a lot of dismissive generalizations

[kindred vigil]

discord wise I don't take anything that serious it's discord 🥀

[warm granite]

im being real if you think its dismissive thats too bad

[earnest reef]

Blissful ignorance of the world state will only get you so far, it can and will eventually come crashing through your bubble regardless

[edgy socket]

Still you can see things and hear things and subliminally let it in your mind

[sonic swan]

i was thinking this as well

[worn knoll]

Weak-minded ones, to boot. "Get married and have kids and never think about anything bigger than you or care about anything outside your immediate circle and knowledge base" is not the best solution for most people, though I cannot say I'm not glad it works for some.

[glacial bane]

people will think youre odd if you go around pretending everything is fine in the world

[sonic swan]

you can still contribute to the world even on a small scale

[kindred vigil]

so keep a respectful distance of yourself away from the state of the world but don't also pretend everything is fine and lose touch with the world around u pretty much

[edgy socket]

Though some level of constant blissful ignorance is the best way to live life cause being constantly aware of all the worlds problems is no way to live

[warm granite]

I think if youre feeling hostile over what i said, you should 'philosophize your anger' and take a step back for a moment to reconsider

[kindred vigil]

system of the down lwk tuff I forgot this album was in the background

[warm granite]

im saying have family connections, focus on your own life and what you can control, i think youre twisting it to something its not because i made fun of your philosophy degree 10 minutes ago

[balmy kettle]

escape will make me hotdog

[kindred vigil]

okay well you all said some insightful things thank you

[sonic swan]

we stole it from sun tzu

[earnest reef]

Rather be aware and prepared but to each their own.

[edgy socket]

I remember being like constantly aware and afraid of like everything that was going on in the world and I was extremely moody and depressed cause of it

[kindred vigil]

war 😨

[warm granite]

sir this is a wendys

[sonic swan]

i wonder if war changes

[earnest reef]

No(it actually has changed but I won't talk about it here)

[edgy socket]

Mfw church plays hark the herald angels sing

[sonic swan]

[wooden roost]

[edgy socket]

Yeah

It’s one of my favorite Christmas song, most of my favorite Christmas songs are also worship songs

[balmy kettle]

I can’t stop watching the vidoc it’s so good

[kindred vigil]

Buckminsterfullerne 🧠

[worn knoll]

Oh no I don't mind that. It's for personal reasons, I was simply disconcerted by your attitude towards it and authoritative assumptions.

[wooden roost]

vas

[kindred vigil]

Buckminsterfullerene

[wooden roost]

what is dat

[kindred vigil]

A chemical compound

[edgy socket]

I always wonder why people don’t make new Christmas songs like silent night or hark the herald angels sing anymore

[wooden roost]

what is do

[worn knoll]

More people need to react to it I'm out of reaction channels

[kindred vigil]

Medicine and antitoxins I think

[worn knoll]

I've watched videos with sub 100 views just to feel soemthing

[wooden roost]

thatas neat

[kindred vigil]

It's just a random long word that I know

[balmy kettle]

it’s insane how good the vidoc is. talk about a goddamn glow up

playing it was even better I couldn’t put it down

[wooden roost]

neeyth did u know in minecraft beta whenever oyu make a new world youll alaways spawn on sand

[kindred vigil]

Why'd did that happen

[balmy kettle]

I really like arc raiders but I am dropping it completely for marathon

[wooden roost]

i dunno

[warm granite]

i got perma banned from their discord finally like a week ago

[worn knoll]

moving from heroes to class, moving from graphic simplicity to graphic realism again, adding more depth, it's all we needed. I'm so hyped for this game it's unreal. I've not felt like this about a game since Cyberpunk. Which BODES ILL I KNOW BUT IT TURNED OUT FINE IN THE LONG RUN

[warm granite]

the games not bad but everyone converges on the same exact builds because there arent enough guns and pvp gets stale afterwards fairly quickly

[balmy kettle]

from arc raiders?? how

[balmy kettle]

DECAYING BODIES WAS SO GOOD

[warm granite]

i was intentionally trolling ngl

[kindred vigil]

4 days till christmas

[wooden roost]

yay 😁

[maiden token]

woohoo!

[kindred vigil]

no present 😒

[worn knoll]

I've been begging for that from a game like this for ages EEEEEEEE

[warm granite]

was saying i always tell people im friendly and then kill them and bad mouth them over voip for trusting me, mods banned me for intentionally instigating arguments

[worn knoll]

yeah that tracks

[balmy kettle]

marathon has unironically my favorite art style I’ve ever seen in a game. Even more than Destiny

[wooden roost]

that guy got that christmas song stuck in my head now 🙁

[balmy kettle]

That’s really funny

[edgy socket]

I love how angry arc raiders players get when they get killed and betrayed in the EXTRACTION shooter

[worn knoll]

I've literally never been more inspired by anything. I'm finding marathon dna in my every project. It's fucking beautiful.

[true mountain]

i bet bungie stole some land making this game

[kindred vigil]

I need look at that omg y'all can't do anything tweet

[true mountain]

bungie = colonizer

[wooden roost]

vas

[balmy kettle]

Bungie I’m gonna need the OST at launch

[edgy socket]

They bought land in the metaverse

[balmy kettle]

Everything about Marathon hits in my soul

[sonic swan]

have you ever seen the movie the creator? the vibe isn’t 1:1 but there’s some similarities and it’s a comfort movie for me now

[kindred vigil]

1 sec

[balmy kettle]

It’s also fucked up how much more responsive the PvP feels compared to Destiny

[worn knoll]

Have you played the originals? Get into the lore if you haven't, it's just as good

[balmy kettle]

Here and there, they’re in my library but the games run kinda jank

[worn knoll]

that looks so cool I've never even heard of it somehow

[edgy socket]

Well yeah they moved the whole PvP team over to marathon lol

[scenic meteor]

my feet kinda hurt

[balmy kettle]

What I mean is there’s no weird server wonk the way Destiny has for 11 years. My inputs actually work

[kindred vigil]

rub them ?

[scenic meteor]

can you

[kindred vigil]

wtf

[maiden token]

youd like that wouldnt you? 😏

[worn knoll]

Really? Strange. Well, watch mandalore's videos if you haven't for a good (thematic, though not comprehensive) breakdown of the plot if you don't wanna trudge through them

[edgy socket]

I guess, well I haven’t played PvP for like a year and a half

[balmy kettle]

Like I’m no sweat or anything but I can actually keep up in a gunfight in Marathon unlike Destiny’s PvP

[edgy socket]

I only just played crucible for the first time since then yesterday lol

[balmy kettle]

I wanted the strand fatebringer from trials

[scenic meteor]

i be rubbing my homies feet 🙄

[edgy socket]

Yep I got that and I had to do the dawning quest

I love my firefly explosive payload

[balmy kettle]

Mandalore is the goat. I also enjoy Jake The Alright

[sonic swan]

give it a watch when you get a chance. might fill the void of marathon until launch
