They do need to explain their net code a bit. I am betting the 'noreg' issue is really just a disagreement between player side and server side

[signal gyro]

Wowow relax not all dads are victims in marathon

[pure prairie]

I've found that I learn more from my failures than my successes. If I'm doing well, I'm usually punching the ceiling/pumped/hyped for the payday and I don't tend to think about what I did in the round. When I lose, I spend the time thinking about the fight and how I could of won it. Winning makes my vault stronger, losing makes my runner smarter

[sick wren]

not about better or worse

[unreal sedge]

I mean you lost

Play better and you'd win

[unreal sedge]

No bait

[sick wren]

good talk man

[unreal sedge]

Specifically here you pushed someone with a better position than you, never adsed, didn't heal when you got up, and brought bad weapons for darsh.

[sick wren]

erm

yeah thats says enough

[unreal sedge]

Bully shotgun on the map with some of the longest sightlines in the game is setting yourself up poorly

[sand prism]

Bringing up IQ tests is like PEAK cope

[wind nexus]

started firing back after sliding and losing missing more than 1 bar of shield - effectively Blue v Green

after cracking opp:
missed bullets: 4, then a pause (time for quick heal from opp), then 5 shots (2 no-reg) switch to WSTR while opp gets 2 3 round bursts into body, jumps into air while opp shoots, trades

res and bub, steps out of bub to shoot WSTR out of optimal range, backsteps with head outside of bub and switches gun while head and torso is out of bub, gets shot to death

• shot 19 bullets from bully - missed 9 (including 2 no-reg)
• stood in the open and swapped guns 2 times while opp still had rounds in BR
• had panacea and didn't even consider using while in bubble

[sand prism]

If you didn't weapon switch I think you woulda won the fight. Learn from that and move on lol

[unreal sedge]

Lol I didn't even see it what was it?

[wind nexus]

#breach-protocol message

[sand prism]

Literally a link to an IQ test

[unreal sedge]

I meant the score, thought he was bragging

[unreal sedge]

Oh I saw the clip

If he had just backed up and took the guys head off with a sniper he woulda won too lol, 0 cover up there from range

Pushing the high ground with no cover is rarely a good plan

[sick wren]

0.0

[wind nexus]

yeah he also missed 50% of his bully shots

[unreal sedge]

Hipfire will do that

[strange wren]

I love me a good vod review

[sick wren]

yeah i missed my bully shots you cant sew his head flinch like 4 times with blood and no damage actually

[unreal sedge]

Those 4 bullets weren't the difference maker

[sick wren]

oh

really

[unreal sedge]

And that was likely due to moving and hipfire inaccuracy

[sick wren]

are you unironic

I see the reticle placement

[sand prism]

Obviously technology is not advanced enough to handle this guys skill. Put him in Cryo and wake him up when quantum computing can handle his insane reflexes and decision-making skills

[zealous wigeon]

I actually didn’t see they had 19 rounds left lol , shoulda just kept shooting then

Me every time i see Bingus in any map

idk man i might be doing a contract, opening a key room, sweating ranked or trying to survive but the moment i hear the meows my brain loses it and main priority is to find that damn cat

[lyric trail]

Why did they do this to the gold circuit breaker?

It was such a fun and rewarding weapon

[obtuse edge]

What'd I miss I haven't played in 2 weeks since I got hit by hantavirus

[supple needle]

where do you live?

[obtuse edge]

On a Disney cruise ship docked in Nebraska

[unreal sedge]

o.o

[opaque pewter]

A new threat looms above…

[obtuse edge]

Did anyone ever get to the bottom of the giant worm on perimeter that occasionally snatched up smelly people

I never saw it but I heard some of you might have

[vast badger]

I heard you saw it but act like you heard it from other people

[eager hollow]

If yall are wondering how i unlocked this you need to manage to keep calm while getting made fun of by the same 2-3 cheater groups ( wich need to be over lvl 150) for 5 hours and not unistall

you are welcome

[obtuse edge]

Who told you this

I'm very displeased...

[vast badger]

A little tick told me

[minor cape]

Is it just me or are the free kits 2500 now?

[timber trout]

its not just you it's probably an oversight I already pinged the devteam and made a reddit post hopefully they see and fix it soon

[opal bloom]

John Sentinel

[minor cape]

Sick thanks dude.

[calm mountain]

where is the new enemy

I want it

now

[pure prairie]

If you guys happen to catch any clips of you being exploded by the new mob...it would greatly improve my boring AF work day lol

[calm mountain]

actively looking for it rn

[heavy totem]

I keep trying to find it

theres an new audio que of orion speaking on dire marsh

[vocal parrot]

The update isn't finished yet, that's why the new enemy and the Warden Hunt changes aren't populating on maps. Update is estimated to complete in ten minutes or so.

[south tundra]

Wait...exploded? Do we have explodabobs now???

[west hazel]

Do we have any info on the new mob?

[pure prairie]

According to one of the new shorts. It looks like the UESC requisitioned an AC130. I'm still hunting for clips.

[south tundra]

Cool. I did all the priority contracts but wasn't sure exactly what samples the UESC had acquired. Sounded like Pfhor, but makes sense that they also discovered the explodabobs.

[pastel harbor]

stole this off of a kitted squad

[blazing robin]

What does the gold Demolition mod do?

[pastel harbor]

holy shit i have to protect this with my life

[pastel harbor]

adsing while shield is active increases rof

[blazing robin]

Sweet thank you!

[vital vapor]

Absolutely broken since the HMG can do full damage upto 100m with the right attachements. Just don’t let anybody get close to you haha.

[pastel harbor]

well that's why u got a secondary and teammates

yo this new emblem is pretty cool

Just killed 6 Rooks in one game. Was good for the soul.

[pure prairie]

Talk about a blast from the past.

That and Power Glover were EVERYWHERE for a hot minute

[west hazel]

anyone else notice that the key templates still show they are fragile and not compromised but also now require the matter fixative anyway?

[lone parcel]

are there more rooks now?
We just fought vs one team and we had 9 elims at the end of the round bc we got swarmed by rooks o:

[west hazel]

Even if you go to buy them they show the same

[strange wren]

More incentive ye

[heady blaze]

i wanna fight the floating cube where it atttt

[sly fractal]

rooks got mega buffed so theres probably 5 billion more of them rn

[cyan nest]

Poor mfs had the anomaly🥀

But we took it

[simple scarab]

anyone encounter the big fuck you orbital strike enemy yet?

[cyan nest]

Not yet

[vital vapor]

No 9 rooks sound right for outpost.

[vital vapor]

Are they actually DBNO though?

[smoky dome]

why tf does buying a new weapon through the cyac barters lower the gun's trace status

[vital vapor]

Anybody used this Gold before. First time seeing the Copperhead gold available.

[smoky dome]

it's for the copperhead so i'll let you work the rest of it out lol

[radiant pebble]

ive heard you run faster with this prestige mod than you do with a knife lol

[earnest oxide]

it's genuinely bad ngl

[vivid panther]

to provide some meaningful input, I like it. and if used within its intended range, you can put people down quick.

cons are it chew through ammo really really fast and you can get maybe 2 downs per mag, max.

putting your cross hairs right around someone’s chest is recommended so you can hit all 3 shots.

also outside of about 16m, it’s a wash and should probably use your other gun.

[lone parcel]

they just got outta there like rats, it was wild, we had 9 kills (6 rooks and a trio) at like 11 min left

[heavy totem]

el creature

[opaque pewter]

Glorp sighting

[vast flint]

I've used it, it's meh-okay.
Fun to use, but it eats ammo, so you need purple mag that gives you the most amount of ammo, or you're going to reload every 2 seconds.
Fun weapons, but it doesn't seem to be good for pvp nor pve, I don't think whole mag to the head can even kill grenadiers, but yeah, fun to use either way

[smoky dome]

yo STOP selling me this fucking thing

[smoky dome]

is that glorpinity bro

[smoky dome]

be sure to catch the joke on the way out twin

[unreal sedge]

The text in the box doesn't change the effect, if it's fragile you should just have to extract, compromised needs fixative. Looks like they just changed the tooltip

[ancient tendon]

[west hazel]

Thats a wild macro you decided to share. Crouching or jumping after ever reload. do you have crouch spamming also macro'ed? pretty wild to share cheats like that

[smoky dome]

huh

is me spamming my crouch button a macro now 😭

[west hazel]

rewatch your clip bud. Every, single time. you crouched and then jumped to get out of it.

[smoky dome]

yeah

i have a habit of pressing my crouch button lol

by all means check my task manager lol

[calm mountain]

THIS IS INSANE I LOVE IT

[lyric sluice]

cinema

8 of us took it down together

signal mask is counter to rockets on rook

felt like neo

[lyric trail]

What loot did it have?

[stiff herald]

Cant see any of the new stuff cause teams seem so aggressive today

[pure prairie]

I'm surprised they gave it animations for it losing balance and exploding.

I thought they would just have it explode and a box plops out similar to the turrets

[lyric sluice]

didnt see D: runners had it all

[smoky dome]

w loot haul ty dire marsh

[flint ore]

we love this rook spawn

[frigid zenith]

Same today

[flint ore]

a team was neer by and i was screemin for help lol

[snow sentinel]

That can happen if you Mindfreak Intro (Upscaled 1080p)

[unreal sedge]

Yeah the extra meds on rooks is a nerf

Massive target on your back and very little upside

[wind kernel]

ONI wanted to make extra sure you'd be safe

[stiff herald]

Just beat the rocket drone. Yay

[flint ore]

it said hi to me

killed 2 as rook lol

[runic topaz]

How's danger marsh haven't played yet today

[unreal sedge]

How do we get this volley rifle skin?

Apparently it's a store skin but not in currently, didn't realize it even rotated

[stiff zodiac]

they cleared much of the catalog it looks like

[unreal sedge]

Strange

It'll come back🤷

[obsidian sky]

just killed one on solo and got no loot

[stiff zodiac]

the older deluxe shell skins and associated items were removed

[flint ore]

the box is red and spawns close to where it died

[obsidian sky]

I think it glitched being on the roof, I ran around for like 3 minutes and couldn't find shit

[flint crescent]

WAIT WHAT

NOOOOOOOOOO

I should have bough cyber red

[west warren]

This is an instant buy

[potent vessel]

I should try pickpocket droning the missile drone

FixupX · May 19, 2026, 7:59 PM

interesting to say the least. especially for solo players.

[unreal sedge]

That one's still in

[pastel harbor]

Didn’t know it was a change i thought it was exclusive to the uesc boss rooms

[pastel harbor]

True

But ur drone might get droned striked

[lyric trail]

This certainly makes destroyed wing even more appealing

[pastel harbor]

^

[flint crescent]

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME

GETTING INTO PINWHEEL BOUTA BE INSUFFERABLE

[ruby kraken]

just throw a smoke grenade bruh ✌️

[vivid panther]

I always liked popping the doors and then dipping to another entrance when I’d play solo to avoid getting caught in a weird spot

[split grove]

run out the main way and run to a different entrance

[flint crescent]

GENIUS

But the risk of running into another runner is high

[split grove]

i know! :D

[split grove]

quite

[flint crescent]

Now if Bungie blocks the entrance you are in then we are fucked but also safe from players

[smoky dome]

make UESC detect you in the corner ❌

[strange wren]

How long did that take, I might rook attempt

(I gotta multiply your time by 3)

[simple palm]

like 45 seconds a rook started it and we assassinated him and took it

[strange wren]

Might be doable

[finite axle]

yummy outpost loot:

[runic topaz]

Finally

[blissful fjord]

Thats a nice change tbh. Ive had a few times in solo's where i was shooting the bots. Then either a vandal jumped up behind me or someone spammed grenades through the hole.

[mellow ingot]

Anyone got any info on how the Common Enemy increased damage scales?

[smoky dome]

FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[teal spear]

this is new right? its talking out loud too

what is it?

[low light]

yes new thing on dire marsh

[teal spear]

what is it..?

[vague bobcat]

Idk check it out for us

[teal spear]

it was talking "runner breach detected" nothing to do in on or around it far as i can tell

[low light]

you can’t climb it?

[vague bobcat]

Maybe has to do with new warden idk.

[teal spear]

i said nothing to do in on or around it

[vague bobcat]

Could always be loreslop (endearing)

[low light]

ahhh okay okay. i wonder if there’s not some sneaky lore around it.

[teal spear]

gotta be

its in a few spots

[vague bobcat]

Could be like how Fortnite does the random map events and changes to hype the new season

[autumn tiger]

Now we are back to white sponsored kits. Does anyone know if this is intended or a bug?

[smoky dome]

yay

[ruby kraken]

the new perimeter events are pretty cool ngl

[teal spear]

which 1s?

[ruby kraken]

crashed dropship container, rocket drone, uesc guarded cargo drop

that's what I've found so far atleast

found all of it in one run, and by found the rocket drone i mean it found me

[teal spear]

is this one of those?

[ruby kraken]

no, i'm talking about perimeter

I believe those are just new structures

[teal spear]

i hear you, i was wondering if it was also on dire marsh

yeah well those structures broadcast someone talking, its odd

[ruby kraken]

however some areas on dire marsh also seem to have upgraded security

[teal spear]

seems related to something

[ruby kraken]

more turrets, more UESC

[teal spear]

seen that

[ruby kraken]

the rocket drone can spawn on dire marsh too

[ruby kraken]

I think that's the UESC director guy or whatever his formal title is, I haven't read the logs where he speaks and is named

I think there is a codex log where you can hear him speaking, same guy

[teal spear]

yeah guess im saying, they feel like they have a purpose other than being "just a box"

[topaz shard]

It’s Orion, he’s the commander of the Tau Ceti UESC

[ruby kraken]

ah yeah him

[flat star]

Towers are also useful to alert if a runner has entered that zone

[ruby kraken]

wait do they always play the alert if someone is near?

[flat star]

Yeah, zones are pretty big though

[charred elm]

Chat it didnt work

[simple palm]

i messed with it some more its only when 3 nodes are destroyed you can just break the last one like that

not quite as useful but still alright

Bungie Banished my rook to the box dimension ⬛

[neon lake]

Slide me that fr

[pastel harbor]

It’s the first slick mag mizzie i’ve ever found

My teammate wanted one but i lowk needed it

[neon lake]

You should keep a couple slick mags in your vault if you can to put on ones you find

[pastel harbor]

I haven’t seen a lotta slick mags :/

[neon lake]

They'll spawn in pinwheel sometimes

[wet sequoia]

they are just about as rare as the mizzies themselves from my expierance

[pastel harbor]

I think the rarity of the mizzies is overblown and should be lowered
It’s already rare and now it’s the best shotgun in the game
AND the mod increases rof
Idk

Yk

[wet sequoia]

i dont mind them being rare tbh i think the wstr needs aother buff and the mizzy needs a small nerf

[pastel harbor]

The mizzy being able to have that huge rof buff is so unfair to circuit breaker

Especially cus of the circuit breaker gold mod nerf

Like

[minor shadow]

Circuit literally one taps

[pastel harbor]

Oh

Damn idk why circuit’s been fucked for me

[wet sequoia]

At full charge it can 1 shot headshot with gold

[pastel harbor]

It’s literally not been hitting even point black

Blank

[minor shadow]

U need to hit all 3 pellets to the head

[pastel harbor]

Damn

[minor shadow]

It’s not an easy shot but it’s amazing when it hits

[pastel harbor]

I see

[wet sequoia]

But yes regardless slickmags need a small nerf and gold mizzy needs a decent sized nerf nerf as well

[pastel harbor]

Yes

[wet sequoia]

Combine that with a consistency buff for WSTR

And we good

[pastel harbor]

Wstr needs slightly more range/more consistent spread

Either or

I don’t mind

[wet sequoia]

I think both would be fair

I’m fine with a 3 tap but needing to be literally up their ass crack is stupid

[pastel harbor]

Rn both mizzy and circuit breaker punch a lot further than wstr

[wet sequoia]

Give me a little

[pastel harbor]

Fr

[wet sequoia]

Like if it felt as good as it did pre nerf but just needed 3 shots instead of 2 that would be ideal

Maybe felt a little bit worse is fine

[pastel harbor]

Yes

I agree

That’s the ideal way to do it

[minor shadow]

You can run carnage cartridge and stack to get 4 in the mag and make it a lot more consistent

[pastel harbor]

Also idk how you would do it but bully is so oppressive compared to other smgs

It’s just too good

It’s not broken

But idk what they could do for it

[wet sequoia]

I’ve done this and even with 4 shots if your at any sort of range it’s still dogshit

[pastel harbor]

Maybe improve copperhead volt thrower and brrt for better competition?

[wet sequoia]

I would rather just have a bully and play range a little bit more

[minor shadow]

Yeah fair enough tbh

[pastel harbor]

Yeah but

The issue is bully is basically the only smg worth using

[wet sequoia]

Not really

[pastel harbor]

Idk that’s how it feels for me

What do u use copperhead for

You know what scratch the smg convo

[wet sequoia]

Copperhead beats out bully close range consistently due the it’s crazy flinch, you rarely see it because no one knows it seems like

[pastel harbor]

I ssee

[wet sequoia]

BRT needs a range buff to be good tho

[pastel harbor]

Yeah

Copperhead needs a buff to its recoil

Imo

Just a little bit

It kicks slightly too much

[wet sequoia]

And the BRT reload animation needs to be way shorter because it never fucking finishes it seems like

[pastel harbor]

Can we talk about how overrun and hardline pr are the WORST EVER to use without proper mods

[pastel harbor]

Fr

[wet sequoia]

Yes, overrun needs a recoil and screen shake buff and hardline needs an actual iron sights

[pastel harbor]

Barfline has horrible sights

Holy shit

It hurts so bad

Hardline recoil is so dogshit

It jumps out of the screen at you

[wet sequoia]

If hardline had actual sights befitting a precision rifle it would actually be one of the better white guns

[pastel harbor]

Yeah lol

The iron sights suck so bad

It covers so much of the screen

You can’t even see the person you’re aiming at

[wet sequoia]

Yep

[pastel harbor]

Like why is the iron sight blocking the entire body
I can’t even see a DESTROYER with these sights

[final forge]

lol i went in with my M77, a green WSTR, and a Reinforced green t-shirt.

[unreal sedge]

https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTBdffhoH/
In case you never got more video

[obtuse mauve]

ik it’s hours later but it’s literally a short range iron sight on a mid/long range gun, literally every other sight in the game is better

i’m saying this bc i lost so many runs to bad attachment rolls in a BLUE traxus sponsor kit (dont even get me startedddd on how bad the blue/green sponsor kits are)

[vocal parrot]

Have you seen the EXP episode on Marathon? Jonathan comments on how heinous the sight is and how its not only a bad sight for the gun, it's just a bad sight in general, and it would be better to have none at all. Lol

[pure prairie]

I just saw that this morning! I was lucky enough to witness it first hand yesterday. Lost a purple retaliator to it. 10/10 - Would get blowed up again

[near wadi]

Oh so basically a Turbine from Arc?

[unreal sedge]

Couldn't tell you, haven't touched that snooze fest since the server slam

[digital gate]

I've been told ai sub-routines are spawning in the pinwheel red key room, can anyone confirm

[wind nexus]

I saw a post about it on twitter but havent seen it myself

[lucid isle]

[heady blaze]

oh lord

https://tenor.com/view/ultrasad-gif-23310565

[near wadi]

Just encountered it and yeah it's pretty much the Turbine

[unkempt dagger]

how has this changed the meta. are people still rushing to wipe the lobby?

instead of a set time to spawn in this should probably spawn after 1 or 2 teams have been wiped.

[pastel harbor]

honestly i have similar comments on the hpr's sights too

[undone chasm]

the absolute worst

[vocal parrot]

Oh, big time. Pretty common issue for Bungie gun design in general, imo. Like, yeah the aesthetics are always nice, and the mechanical/animation design usually makes sense, but not enough thought goes into how aiming/firing a gun actually works, so we get stuff like this. In the ultra-far-future, the chances of any gun having stock iron sights is incredibly low to begin with, but any rifle having a 20th century machine pistol style front post and rear aperture sight is definitely not gonna be a thing. I feel like the precision guns should have at least a base 1.5x zoom optic at minimum, or at least a red dot/holo.

i didn’t even remember that it was triage there

My fault yo 😭

I fw Triage too

[heavy totem]

I wish the UESC forces did act like a horde like that triage

[near wadi]

my CPU would blow up

[heady blaze]

dude the smoke vortexing around the triage drone, the way it disperses when he shoots

insane attention to detail

it's fucking peak

Ive yet to see this thing

[heady blaze]

good

you dont want too

[cyan nest]

Tfym good. I want shit to feel different sometimes

[heady blaze]

you will see the runner eliminated screen

[pure prairie]

I still can't get over how cool the visual is of the Assassin seeing himself slip into a deep dark pool of inky water before he snaps back into his shell.

That was so fucking cool.

same day as sony's state of play, I'm expecting a bit of a showcase

[finite axle]

anyone else having disconnect issues?

my friends can get on marathon but i just got dced last exfil and can't connect back

[lyric sluice]

been hearing some others say since patch yesterday its been like that

bug fixes being worked on

[finite axle]

i currently cannot play xx

i'm in the us but unsure how i can check the reigon atm

you can post in here and on the bungie site, if you get a specific error code mention that too

[finite axle]

funny thing about that being uh

there is no error code

ima take a break for a bit and see if it fixes later, kinda sucks not being able to play xx

[lyric sluice]

use that one

fair hope it fixes itself

[analog roost]

So weird, I have been playing just fine but my friend who is in the same state as me can't connect 🤔

[lyric sluice]

sounds like a bug to me

BUNGIEEEEEEEE

😂

[trail ice]

does this mean im banned??

[lyric sluice]

naw

it means the servers are funky af rn

[trail ice]

damn i thought i was banned i was like no way cus im buns

[versed veldt]

I need Bungie employees to respond to my work order. I have never cheated before. I purchased the deluxe version from the server and recharged the Chaos Maker's red and white skins one after another. I cherish my own account very much and I don't know why it was banned

I have fought in the 5000 hour arena of Destiny 2 for at least 2000 hours of experience, and I don't even bother to cheat. Is it because I killed a major anchor on the North American server on the 19th? That night, all the hacker players locked onto my head and only evacuated one of them

[lyric sluice]

this is a player channel bungie doesnt respond to feedback here buddy

[lyric sluice]

ive reported the errors in the feedback channels

Ran from one over maintenace/quarantine into another over AI on Solo Marsh

Used the underground tunnel to travel to an exfil only to run face first into the warden

Interesting run, to say the least

[trail ice]

these serevers are ass i get dc right after wiping 2 teams

[woven kelp]

yesterday i got an infinite loading screen and after an hour of me and my team waiting we left and it wiped all the gold shit i brought in

i feel u

[void totem]

bro joined the dc to cry

[unreal sedge]

What do they need to fix?

[minor cape]

Was still broken for me earlier, no free kits available. It’s there now.

[unreal sedge]

The shop has had bugs like that since day 1 it's always just been a relog to fix it

[heady blaze]

can anyone tell me what the fuck hit me here

the hell does 339 damage

[opal bloom]

you serious?! golds?!

goldss what exactly, like even prestige stuff like Synapse Cubes or Allien Alloys?

[opal bloom]

i think it's the volt shotgun, it's almost like a rifle, with good aim is actually insane

[unreal sedge]

Yeah there's a red glow that could be a dmr or rail gun scope

Circuit breaker would have been a 1 shot usually at that range

That 339 wasn't in one hit

The damage readout isn't super helpful

That one shot was about 180, could have been a lot of things tbh

[heady blaze]

that was the only thing that hit me tho

[pliant hare]

gold mods. i got a volley barrel in a blue key room on outpost

[midnight frigate]

Ares body

[pliant hare]

might be circuit breaker or as above said ares

[cerulean swan]

I wish the damage readouts listed out which weapons people had/used to hurt me, attached mods included. Lemme know if I got styled on by a gold weapon.

[heady blaze]

it was a circuit breaker, he wiped the rest of my team with it. felt a bit sus tho, apparently one guy was on a bought account

sucks tho tbh

you can hear the destroyer charge up a v86 right after he ults

Honestly it should be weapon, where you got hit, damage and time. Long with your outgoing damage too. Hunt has his and it's incredibly helpful

[lyric trail]

Uhhh excuse me were those pixels edited appropriately?

[cyan nest]

Good sir i did not make that one

[lyric trail]

Carry on then 😉

[proud patrol]

how many more robots do i need to kill for the arg? ive been doing a lot

[cyan nest]

I made this one tho

The struggles of tryna do contracts

[lyric trail]

Sir? Sir?! Was that edited by a janny approved editing method?

[cyan nest]

Sir sir...Ive no clue what that is

[lyric trail]

Ai editing isnt against the rules but the (unpaid) volunteer janitorial staff of this discord will delete any image edited with ai because another channel has a notification somewhere saying its not allowed there

[cyan nest]

I dont thi k the mods will care if the ai in question is a simple android object erraser🤣

[lyric trail]

They do lol

Im on a crusade against them

Just me

[cyan nest]

Thats actualy next level nonsince.

[lyric trail]

I just want them to put it in the server rules but I think they wont because bungie doesnt actually care

[cyan nest]

Like i can understand full blown ai imagry. But i simply just cut n paisted real images and used the erraser to get rid of unwanted people in the photo. Lol

The text is even manualy eddited without ai

[lyric trail]

If they were to accept a grey area usage it would be tantamount to admitting that AI is a tool and not a digital theft demon

[cyan nest]

Well ima leave it where its at. I doubt they will mute or warn me given that OBV real images were used to make it. If it gets deleated fine, if not cool. Lets just see what happens

[lyric trail]

Nothing will happen unless a furry avatar poweruser from the art channel decides to scroll through the chat history here

[cyan nest]

Regardless hopefully the meme got a chuckle from u

[lyric trail]

Which wont happen because the game is fairly dead until season 2 or another arg

[cyan nest]

I dont look at player count no more. I just wana play the game and have fun not knowing about the possible outcomes

Tho i do genuinley believe a rebound is on the horizon in the form of future updates

...call it blind optomism, but im happy with being a blind optomist. As long as i can still have fun

Kakarot! Im rich kakarot! Im the prince of all fraud! And now that im powerd up with beast bars i can finaly become super beast blue!

[wet sequoia]

man what the fuck is happening

i just went around the map, did every activity, killed boss, killed every purple i could find. and lost 3 key templates because I couldnt get a single matter fixative

[upbeat perch]

lol probably shadow nerfed fixatives i literally had every commander drop one in outpost before the key patch

[wet sequoia]

same

ive lost 5 key templates so far

from runs that i just cant find a fixative

[wet sequoia]

then insult to injury

next run we get like 12 of them to dropo

server issues? T-T

[void steppe]

yo, so does this achievement straight up not work for anyone else? i've seen some reddit posts about it and it's driving me insane too, i have all the other gun codex entries. i've spent entire game sessions trying it and it never completes. i've killed while ADSing and while not, scoped and unscoped, at near point black and at almost 100 meters away. it never works, driving me nuts

[cerulean swan]

Not sure if I got that one done or not. IS it bots or players you are shooting? Pretty sure I got it to work with bots.

Player triggered achivements require killing them in the DBNO state

[void steppe]

i'm shooting bots, it would say runners if it was for players

also every other gun works with bots so

[void steppe]

that makes sense

[zealous wigeon]

Ohh coool

[hearty kayak]

ok maybe not

it might have been like that since the end of the ARG for Cryo

[unreal sedge]

how did I take 45 damage from myself...

[pastel harbor]

yeah that showed up on my death thing too

not really sure

[cerulean swan]

by using self depreciating humor.

[pastel harbor]

haha very funny

[cerulean swan]

Gotta uptalk your self, it might be a joke but it ruins your own vibes.

[pastel harbor]

i don't downtalk myself usually

[cerulean swan]

The oni affirmations must be working.

Also speaking of oni, she gets pretty quiet in fill queues and then I do a tiny bit of solo for a contract and I get constant lines. I guess it sorta exhausts?

[zealous wigeon]

Ah

All good

Im too dumb to participate in an ARG either way icl

But it was fun to watch from the sidelines

[cerulean swan]

oi, this is what we're talking about with self depreciation!

I elim’d one guy

And then teammate traded

Third guy got merc’d by a bot

So we all got up

Known bug right now. Also spawned into that box last night

hahaahah it's hilarious! i didn't know

My head canon is that Orion finally decided to do something about the malfunctioning rook problem -in the most orion way possible- by taping the box three times lmfao

[astral lantern]

good

(not good Its just fun to mock the situation)

Lucky it’s just Rooks

Well, logically it’s just Rooks. It’s just awful to contemplate if it were happening to regular shells.

https://www.bungie.net/7/en/News/Article/d2_may_21_2026

was expecting this...

this is prob a send off cuz Destiny 3 is being worked on

[heavy totem]

WHAT

[unreal sedge]

I'm surprised they went this long

Devs not being 'allowed' to move on from a live service game is a real problem. We all want new games, don't shoot the devs you clearly like for doing the thing you purport to want.

[heavy totem]

Yeah true

[wet sequoia]

This is like quitting a job you don’t like without somthing else lined up but you have a side gig that makes you a little bit of money

You still need a full time job

Marathon is the side gig

Destiny was the job they didn’t like

But now they are fucked because nothing else is lined up right now

Bungie about to go homeless

Or more likely move back home to the parents house

(Sony)

[unreal sedge]

I mean, Sony already owns them

And it may just be my personal perspective as someone who never played destiny but destiny hasn't been relevant in the main gaming discourse for a long time. Even a d3 would have just been for the people already playing it.

My optimistic take is they traded a series in a genre that is dying off with a game in a growing genre

[flint crescent]

ngl i think it would be better if they get their own studio room in Playstation and get away from california

[candid yacht]

theres some copium lines in the article about destiny moving beyond D2

so who knows

this is literally the only thing they couldve done

[flint crescent]

imagine they pull a Destiny 0

[wet sequoia]

Bungie is located in Washington state

[unreal sedge]

If you chase two rabbits you catch neither

[lyric trail]

100% destiny has burned goodwill in the eyes of the people who arent sunk cost fallacy invested in it, I kind of doubt destiny 3 is on the way

[vivid panther]

real shit here.

[flint crescent]

hey just saying

there is a state of play coming up

whole hour, even will be on theaters

[candid yacht]

now this is next level cope

[flint crescent]

last time they put a state of play on theaters they came with holy bangers

also

they need to earn trust back now

cuz sony already ditched PC ports of singleplayer exclusives

[candid yacht]

oh you mean sony in general

[flint crescent]

yep

but idk

would D3 even be considered to be announced there?

[candid yacht]

they would have to do something unholy to make me buy a playstation

[flint crescent]

i was going to before they ported all the games i wanted on PC

[candid yacht]

true

shame they stopped

[flint crescent]

but looking at it now

it aint worth it at all

pricing is absurd

[candid yacht]

I doubt D3 will be announced

[flint crescent]

same for games, its the most expensive storefront ever

[candid yacht]

it would be like ES6 announcment

[heavy totem]

ITS ALL GONE KYLE

THEY TOOK IT AALL

[vivid panther]

me too.

[lyric trail]

Do not hype yourself up for 2 hours of ads please

[vivid panther]

wish exclusives would just be a thing of the past.

[opal bloom]

got into a Cryo friendly run, probably all teams exfil together, amazing

[cyan nest]

Well yea, ofc they were gonna stop pumping $ into destiny 2 at some point. Ngl they shoulda pulled the plug with final shape. A im prety shure a good chunk of the 700.000$ bungie reported lossing came from poor sales of there dlc's they keep throwing money at and pumping out endlessly. Games been out since 2017, its 9 years old and hasnt seen a solid stable/consistant player count since witch queen. Its way past time they do this.
But heres to hope they FINALY make all the content free after this ffs

[cyan nest]

https://tenor.com/view/the-amazing-digital-circus-fishes-sharks-fish-tadc-gif-7483098712733604738

[flint crescent]

impairment loss is not actual sales loss

its company value

they lost about 700 million of what sony poured into them to acquire the studio

[unreal sedge]

And company value is a made up thing anyway

It's all hocus pocus stack market talk. It doesn't mean Sony lost that amount of money on the deal

[cyan nest]

Fair enough

Tho... i think its laughable people believe the 700mill loss was entierly marathons fault. Im no pro at company stock stuff but...even i know thats pure nonsince

The cost of marathon is nowhere near 700mill not even remotely close

It cost allot shure....but not 700 mill

[cold delta]

I literally dont understand why how much money a company spends on a game that doesnt fail immediately matters to us at all, the price for me was the price anything other than that is literally not my problem.

if a movie spends 100 mil on making a movie and it only does 12 mil in the box office, damn that sucks man. better luck next time, it still only costs 10 bucks for a movie ticket.

"oh no my boomer dad bought an RV and sold the house to blackrock, now i wont get any inheritance" - same energy

[elder needle]

wish more people understood this, it's like the same kind of people who think elon musk has enough money to solve world hunger

[woeful parcel]

They just adjusted the value they think bungie is worth

And from the little reading I did it doesnt have super much to do with marathon

[unreal sedge]

I wish more people would see something like 'impingement loss' accept that they don't know what that means, and either do a modicum of research on it or just shut up

[heavy totem]

Paul tassi having his villain arc

[unreal sedge]

Probably being a bit dramatic. But the huge rook nerf is really making me not want to play

[topaz shard]

What nerf? They got buffed like crazy this patch?

[unreal sedge]

The meds

Rooks are now walking med cabinets on steroids

So no team is going to let you live

On Monday about 1/5 teams would go out of their way to hunt you down, 4/5 would ignore you and 1/5 would be friendly. My limited data the last couple days has that up to about 8/10 actively spending major resources and time to hunt you down.
Meaning you will survive a lot less. Buffs can be nerfs sometimes

[strange wren]

I love how the grey freekit period tuesday-today was like the turn off pain inhibitors meme, you take those green now-freekits for granted

[cyan nest]

Well i just say it shoulda ended in final shape cause it felt like the end... but wasnt. It woulda been the perfect finalie

[signal linden]

For the record, leaks as of last year said that Destiny 3 had essentially just started development, so even if they are working on it, it would be smart of them to not discuss working on it until they have something workable to show to people. Game would probably be 5 years away if its going to happen, any earlier would be surprising

[frail ibex]

Yeah id definitely expect a return to destiny in a handful of years once Marathon stretches its legs a bit

[signal linden]

Honestly also a very real possibility that we start to see a few looter shooters pop up over the next 2-3 years as people try to nab the D2 playerbase. Very likely stuff has already been working in the background as other companies have watch D2 fade

[frail ibex]

Also I think the goodwill of the franchise is far from burned, people just get worn out playing the same thing for a decade and it also gets harder for new players to hop in cause theres the mental baggage of everything they missed. Id expect a D3 whenever it happens to land real strong

[frail ibex]

True this is the only real threat I think to D3 being hyped when its eventually announced, if theres an alternative that struck gold and managed to hit that playerbase in the meantime.

[topaz shard]

Tbf, you’ve always been a walking loot piñata and it’s always a dice roll honestly so idk what to tell ya. You’re the first person I’ve heard talk about these alleged gangs of players specifically hunting rooks for the meds lol but ehh, it comes with playing rook and you should already accept that you’re gonna die regardless.

[unreal sedge]

The difference is the cost benefit. Rooks on average weren't worth the time or trouble to kill

Now they absolutely are. They dumped about 6k worth of meds into every one of them

As far as being the first person I've seen others talking about it too and I've even had runners on voip talking about rooks being worth chasing down for the meds now

[graceful aspen]

We’re yall not running them down for Arachne xp?

[unreal sedge]

Some were

Most weren't

[graceful aspen]

Isn’t Arachne 100 the wipe objective tho

[unreal sedge]

Sure

[graceful aspen]

Your score in marathon is your Arachne vip rank

[topaz shard]

I mean, it’s only for a week and a half and then it goes back to normal lol it’s not permanent. I feel like you’re making a mountain out of a molehill having the mind set that you’re going to quit the entire game because of a 2 week buff lol.

[unreal sedge]

For me it's not a molehill 🤷

I have about 3 hours a day max to play and I'm dirt broke in game

So I rely on rook runs for guns and money

Going from around 80% of those runs being profitable to 10% is crushing

[graceful aspen]

Meds being one of the primary expenses this should help you aswell.

[unreal sedge]

Eh not really

Meds are one of the things I have an abundance of

I invested early and don't waste them

So I have a lot

[graceful aspen]

Wild

I don’t buy anything but meds tbh

I just got the 1 mil thing

[unreal sedge]

And even if it did help getting out so rarely hits harder

[graceful aspen]

Med flood happened with cryo, so many fucking ppl and their 80 stacks of meds that you can just take.

[unreal sedge]

Highest I've gotten was 100k, then perimeter ranked week dropped me to 30k and I've been down around 0 since

Good barters can get you a lot of meds

[graceful aspen]

Honestly I played very optimal for profit, pinwheel and cryo

[unreal sedge]

Crew fill or premade?

[graceful aspen]

Premade mostly, fills have been decent lately tho

[unreal sedge]

Yeah that tracks

[graceful aspen]

Gotta put the time in to get a premade

[unreal sedge]

My availability is pretty random and not at popular times

I've got a decent friends list going but not consistent

[graceful aspen]

Yeah it’s like that. I just have one person I log on with then grab a 3rd

[vivid panther]

I don’t think rooks should be incredibly threatening like prime WSTR rooks were but they shouldn’t be speed bumps either

s2 id like to see them replace that WSTR upgrade with something that at least gives them a chance.

[unreal sedge]

They should have a chance in a 1v1 for sure. The blue shield should be a later capstone for nucal

It would help a lot

[narrow scarab]

prime WSTR era Rooks with three claymores were great. It was tense. Like being stalked by a slasher villain

[vivid panther]

I mean, replacing the WSTR with like a solid green retaliator with a gun shield might be all it takes.

even though I think that lowkey makes them scarier.

[wet sequoia]

They need more mips ammo at the very least off spawn

[vast badger]

Re-peashooter-taliator

[narrow scarab]

The potential to pick you off if you spread out alone seems like ideal Rook balance

[vivid panther]

gun shield LMGs are currently the games best kept secret and essentially guarantees a 1v1 win if they don’t also have a gun shield in 50/50s.

retaliator, demolition, conquest aren’t seen nearly enough for how oppressive they can really be.

actually really surprised they’ve not caught a lot of traction yet.

[wet sequoia]

Unfortunately 90% of lmg shield players seem to be the most unaware players ever, I swear every time someone has one they just get addicted to holding an angle and just get flanked and die

[vivid panther]

yeah. you can build a retaliator to be pretty snappy.

demolition and conquest maybe not so much but they make up for that in raw damage output

[vast badger]

I just am not a fan of the retaliator myself, even with the shield

Granted I haven't used it with a purple shield but still

It takes so many bullets to even kill a blue shield UESC

The other LMGs though i am a fan of

[vivid panther]

it’s awkward and it takes some getting used to but I have face tanked geared purple shield kits and just out DPSed them with a green shield + a gun shield

[vast badger]

Demolition is 😚 👌

[vivid panther]

green shield + lmg shield is effectively like having a purple shield, or at least it feels like it.

I don’t have the raw numbers.

[vast badger]

Yeah I'd like to see numvers for the lmg shields, just out of curiosity

But yeah they for sure can be really good!

But I'm gonna be a retaliator hater till the day i die

Just because!

[warm tide]

dont tell my secret

[vast badger]

(We gotta hate on the lmgs so noone uses them)

[copper shard]

#lfc-cryo-archive

[wet sequoia]

Just for you I delete every machine gun I ever get

And every machine gun gold mod

[vivid panther]

I really only just love a retaliator with a blue control shield for recoil and the clear eye optic. if it doesn’t have at least some kind of shield, yeah, not worth using.

this is also the reason I basically only use the Arachne free kit.

[smoky dome]

THANK YOU OUTPOST FOR THE REINFORCED GOLD SHIELD

[bronze mural]

holy heals 😭

[viscid canopy]

mans starving

[smoky dome]

i killed 3 teams

these are my spoils of war

[bronze mural]

share the wealth

come to hauler

[wet sequoia]

I would recommend not wasting slots on green heals and instead just hunt rooks

[unreal sedge]

HUGE

[unreal sedge]

rip no matter fixative

[cedar charm]

wtf

i dont wanna wait 12 days the season will fucking end

[obtuse edge]

Per Bungie fashion things they didn't touch keep breaking every update

[tulip robin]

Hi! I would recommend making a bug report by following the steps on the #🪲bug-reporting channel to let Bungie know of this!

[cyan nest]

Plz never fix triage ult weapon inspect glitch that makes him throw gang sighns

[obtuse edge]

You can do something similar with Destroyer if your cancel your reload with tac sprint just right

[torn birch]

Gen chat said yall had good copy pastas over here?

[stoic atlas]

still had this saved from the arg period

[obtuse edge]

Taterthot

[vivid panther]

gold impact is so fun.

[smoky dome]

???

[unreal sedge]

Haven't gotten to try that one, I do like the impact a lot

[vivid panther]

built into recoil + range and you can really map people with it. think it can go out to like 100m.

[unreal sedge]

Throw some recoil and accuracy on and you're good to go

The stats on the legendary mods does get overlooked a lot

[tulip robin]

Hi! Please report this to Bungie by following the steps in the #🪲bug-reporting channel. Thanks!

[ebon dust]

I’ve reported this and many others have as well and they’re not doing anything , what’s the point

[tulip robin]

Hi! Based on the reports, it seems like Bungie is aware that the issue is occurring and they are investigating.

[ebon dust]

Where was this said by them?

Bloomberg: Bungie planning significant layoffs following end of Destiny 2 development. Destiny 3 is not in active production.

Bungie staff are pitching and prototyping new projects, including in the Destiny franchise, but none have been greenlit

Guys I’m scared

[heavy totem]

Not to jinx it and also to not undermine the severity

Bungie is split up between two teams with the Destiny team having members who, in the eyes of management, can’t really help in those new incubation projects

I LOVE CONTRACT WORK EMPLOYMENT!!!!

[flint crescent]

is this quest bugged?

Paradigm Shift 5/5

like i managed to complete it, in time

both requirements

but for some reason after exfilling it reset

lol

this issue wasn't fixed since april... i wonder if i can force it to complete it somehow

[wheat egret]

GUYS DO I

[unreal sedge]

Yes

[ruby kraken]

you do

[unreal sedge]

Imo every day you should buy out signal jammers, self revives, and frags

Seeing as you have 54 already though you should start bringing more

[grand quiver]

which one is that?

[flint crescent]

Paradigm Shift 5/5

[grand quiver]

ik lol but what do you have to do?

[flint crescent]

Go into Bio Research and retrieve samples before timer runs out (you will be locked in a room with bots to fight)

Then once the room barriers are down you have take them to a DCON before the timer runs out

Very shit easy

But it’s not completing

[mint summit]

Is there anyone goated in here who can take a Lv. 62 Recon to compiler for skin? I can hold my own and I've watched videos on the steps needed to get to Archive 07. I just need to take my mind off of today after the news.

[teal spear]

finally did it

[minor shadow]

Fist of phobos spotted 😭

[split grove]

uhm

[minor shadow]

Oh no recon nvm thats not awful

[teal spear]

is it trash?

got me through piler 🙏

[minor shadow]

I am a massive hater of the stryder because the bloom after shooting a few shots

[teal spear]

real

[minor shadow]

How many phases 😭

[teal spear]

2

i think 2 is as good as it gets without cheese so not bad!

[minor shadow]

Cheese?

[teal spear]

yeah like

longshot unique

the lmg with infinite ammo

ect

[minor shadow]

I just use gold bully

[teal spear]

first kill too

that would be nice, if I had one : D

[minor shadow]

Even just one person on it is hard not to one phase

Fair enough

Good job tho!

[teal spear]

with bully?

cause we had 3 people on it all 3 attempts

never one phased lol

[minor shadow]

Yeah 1 person on gold bully

[teal spear]

so i guess thats cheese to me

xD

[minor shadow]

Ideally with common enemy or punishment, but that’s no necessary

Ah lmaooo

[teal spear]

im a dumbass

none of us used UESC or PVE dmg chips

i forgot those exist

we might have 1 phased with that

[minor shadow]

Punishment is specific to compiler “spht enemies” and only spawns in the cargo chip room (in a lvl 2 vent)

[teal spear]

huh

wow

i never even seen it ill say that

[minor shadow]

It isnt uesc so insurrection wouldnt help

[teal spear]

right

common enemy tho

[minor shadow]

Yeah that ones goated

[teal spear]

well i feel great, bungie cooked with this content imo

rough around the edges at times but

its a great "hard to reach end game" style activity

aspirational content or whatever

[minor shadow]

Yeah compiler fight is awesome

Honestly doesnt really matter what u use so long as u have enough time to kill

[teal spear]

our first 2 attempts the bees and aggro were getting us

we had to focus two people on sharing aggro... probably some stuff to change

[split grove]

i really need to go outside.

[minor shadow]

Holy moly take a shower

[cold delta]

does it go any higher?

[minor shadow]

Yeah it’s unbounded

[cyan nest]

Resets yo progression

[vague violet]

Ppl rly be saying to “go outside” and im like have you seen how Arachne thief looks at me

[vague violet]

https://medal.tv/games/marathon/clips/mIFlDXngAUvi1vezd?invite=cr-MSxEUGosNjM0ODE1MjA3&v=261

not the greatest rep of a median run since I’m running golds, but it’s pretty reasonable to 1-2 phase with anything with a middling setup

[cyan nest]

I went to zap a player with my cables and the targeting ends up locking on to triage drone and takeing full dmg both fkn cables while the theif recieves zero dmg from either cable

[crimson ocean]

so I did allll that just to fail the mission successfully? I killed the guy - there's no mention of a timeout in the mission description. missed it by 20 seconds, not even? That's super frustrating. Exfil'd right after [Nona final contract]

[candid yacht]

well the buff that it gives you isnt indefinite so

you can see it when you inject it

[wet sequoia]

To the rook that jumped into an exfil, killed my teammate and looted his body while exfiling and but only looted MY mizzy I gave my teammate to send to my postmaster, sincerely f you

[vivid panther]

bought far far west and played it a bit tonight

games really fun

[candid yacht]

yeah that game looks fun as hell

like a roguelike helldivers

or something

I wanted to buy it but got too much stuff to play atm

[vivid panther]

it has so much going on ngl

horde shooter looter shooter roguelite extraction shooter

[candid yacht]

i just dk if I fuck with the art direction

[vivid panther]

it’s very sea of thieves. but it’s pretty fun so far.

[north nacelle]

I have played 380hr, and I have 170lvl. How he get 300? jesus, how many hours he played.

[split grove]

nah man i love the stank.

[split grove]

800 hrs (a lot have just been AFK) and killing a lot of runners :)

[north nacelle]

you are monster

[narrow pilot]

https://tenor.com/view/marathon-marathon-game-marathon-goop-marathon-burger-nucaloric-gif-13183839602958853843

Anyone else?

[zealous wigeon]

I cant lie the hardline kitted out with a stabilizing barrel is so good

Im realizing how wrong i was ..

[clever tendon]

are these supposed to not be available this week?

[zealous wigeon]

They are supposed to be available

I got the same bug

[nimble chasm]

Same I have the same issue

[ebon dust]

same bug

i want my dedication sydrome done and bungie like always fumbles

[sturdy nexus]

hopefully with the daily shop refresh it'll update, my friend has it

[misty forge]

damn shame, we got 3 new subroutines in a row and couldnt unlock a single one of those

[flint crescent]

Is Cryo Solo possible?

At least for getting vaults open and exfilling?

[ebon dust]

i dont think so, you would have to be EXTREMELY fast and compitenet against some serious teams

[sturdy nexus]

they should let rooks in for season 2

[vague violet]

"possible" yes

ayker(?) on twitter has completed every vault solo I believe, save Compiler

[pure prairie]

I don't know how to spell the dudes name, but didn't Tay(something) also do it?

I don't watch any of his stuff, but I saw a short about solo compiler

[vague violet]

perhaps? i only know of ayker since i see them pop up on my twitter TL occasionally

[split grove]

tayxdc!

my goat!

[pure prairie]

What's his vibe all about? I know almost nothing about him

[cyan nest]

I mean.... is it really cheating if its simply just a hole in the map anyone can acess? I can understand aimboting but this is more or less just abuseing a cheese spot if the means to get up there is to simply jump on the pipe like the assasin tryed doing.

I could be missing something, correct me if im wrong

[ruby kraken]

it's exploiting which is just as bad

[signal hamlet]

it's more like 3 theif do oob and grapple to that position

we cant see the theifs' body, only the bullet tracers outside from the roof

[flint crescent]

Had to mute Destiny on twitter this shit is annoying as hell

Most childish immature fanbase of all time, they are even review bombing marathon on steam

[cyan nest]

The darkness got them

[flint crescent]

Ngl but if Bungie closes I will 100% blame these fans cause they could have been supporting Marathon instead of wishing for its downfall and boycotting Destiny 2, now the game is getting discontinued, layoffs are coming, and they are blaming Marathon for it, atp they are going to kill the studio and franchise they love out of sheer pettiness

[cyan nest]

There allot like halo fans. If its not destiny it sucks. If its not halo 3 it sucks. The mindset of i dont wana play anything new is something spectacular on its own...but lets be real, who genualy reads steam revews and not watch gameplay on yt b4 buying.

Idk anyone that dousent watch gameplay b4 buying and souly goes off revews

[flint crescent]

Fun fact Steam DB most searched games Marathon is at first

People are genuine more interested in watching this game fall than actually giving a chance

Gaming culture is at its lowest point
