Marthon's design looks like if the Microsoft pride flag self identified as a game.
Maybe the most accurate comparison I've read is theJFaguar rebrand.
To be fair, it is the most G-rated shooting, stabbing, and blowingpeople nonbinary they/thems up humanly possible.
It's pathetic that with all of the advancements made in technology, we have games like Marathon releasing where they'd rather invest in depicting more colors than the human eye can even see instead of the blood gore effects we had over a decade ago. Is Bungle trying to outdo the PS5 Temu Splatoon nobody remembers?

Let me be more coherent with what I have problems with in this game
- The price tag
- most to all extraction shooters have price tags on them which is crazy, but this game needed to be F2P
- Character design
- western game devs ideas of what makes a good character or appealing character is a fucking joke, that female character with the big ass shoes and the big shirt instantly pissed me off when I first saw her. I'm old enough to see a character and instantly not like them, DEI or not.
- monetization
- bungie is on the same tier an Ubisoft for me with blatant bad business practices and bullshit DLC. Destiny 2 DLC is $400 right now, all together. I remember that GDC talk with the business guy at bungie and how he try to use "racial" reason why monetization was in the game. And bungie fanboys write that shit off.
- The type of people working on this game
- bungie is full of some of the biggest punk ass leftist on god green earth, you can make fun of my state of California(MCGA) but Washington state is a shithole. You know it has toxic positive problems, with how some of the decision-making is for no one or a modern audience, like proximity chat being left out of the game.
- content
- Destiny 1 have content problems on release, destiny 2 has moved content from its game. You see where I'm going with this, they have a history of doing this, and it seems like it will continue with how some Content creator had a question from them and bungie had no answers.

"Concord Devs demand forgiveness as they move to Marathon"
Trash clickbait title and video. It makes it sound like the Concord dev moved to and is working on Marathon. He isn't. He just said it's fucked up that people are calling a game a failure before launch. The guy didn't and doesn't work for Bungie.

It isn't fucked up.
It wasn't fucked up with Dragon Age Veilguard:
It wasn't fucked up when it was Assassin's Creed Shadows and Star Wars Outlaws:
It wasn't fucked up when it was Concord:
It wasn't fucked up when it was Suicide Squad or Gothic Knights
So no. It isn't fucked up. It's called 1+1=2.

Oh. Well I am not disagreeing with you if he doesn't have anything to do with Marathon.
Everything else stands. We can say a game is fucked up before playing it by knowing the mind set of the developers behind it.
It's like in War of the Worlds at the end when Morgan Freeman says:
"By the toll of a billion deaths, man had earned his immunity, his right to survive among this planet's infinite organisms."
We have seen enough of this shit over the years that it isn't taking Miss Cleo to know what comes when this piece of shit game launches.

And let's make something perfectly clear:
5+ Years Development. 3 Maps at launch with 6 classes.
I guarantee you the completely unskilled DEI development team behind this shit show stop started 6 times and Sony just said release it and see if we can recoup any sort of cash at this point with plans to shut it down and laying off these morons within 6 months to a year. Or moving to free to play models immediately.

White has nothing to do with it. But I guarantee you the dude with the ZZ top beard at the top with glasses might be the only one in that picture that doesn’t suck dick for a living and gets shit done.

If you think things have gotten better since then you're in for a shock. We went through our worst DEI years after that post, it was just before covid and the Biden years.

You dare to assume their gender? Disgraceful! Bigot!
For real though, those are probably the people that have to make the game into what the blue hairs want them too.

That still goes on, tbh. There was some post, maybe here a few pages ago, or on Reddit showing a MtF trans and some obese pink hair as part of the dev team. The tranny was very happy to be celebrating being a "woman" working at Bungie. ;p

Thing is no one cares if people are gay or white or black or from fucking mars. DEI is synonymous with “Didn’t earn it” and the issue is with the skill level of the employee that was hired over a more qualified developer because they cut off their dick. It’s why quality, development, and over run budges are fucked right now. 80% of the people in the gaming industry are cucks who literally have not even 20% of the skill level of a developer from 20 years ago when hiring was based on merit and how much of a passion you had for games. Now? It’s what pronoun are you and what statement do you want to make with a game.
This is the issue with DEI. You must know this at this point right?
