Destiny Killer

Okay game, but doesn’t come close to destiny 2. Destiny 2 should not have been killed for this game.

Solo is a survival horror masterpiece.

As an exclusively solo player I was immediately hooked by Marathon. The gunplay is fantastic, but so is the environmental and audio design. You never know what is around the corner and the tension is palpable.

Way better than I expected

I didn't think I would enjoy gaining gear, losing gear, gaining, losing, etc - but I actually found it fun. It takes a few hours to get comfortable with it, but once it clicks, it's wonderful because you learn that, thats not the point. The point is raising your overall player progression so you can earn other awards and repurchase weapons you may have lost. With that, I think adding a PVE mode will be great - so we can choose to use our earned weapons in ways other than PVP. Looking forward to S2. Thousands of hours D2 player :)

Better than I expected

I was very skeptical about this but I've somehow spent almost 400 hours on this game... in Season 1 alone...

My GOTY

I am enjoying Marathon so much. I have 354 hours in the game and I can't stop playing. It’s my game of the year. I missed 20 years of gaming to build my business so I missed the Destiny games so my previous Bungie game was Halo 1 & 2. When I started gaming again a few years ago I sucked so bad at FPS and PvP that I did not like those games at all but for some reason I can not stop playing Marathon and now I am getting good at FPS/PvP (I still suck but I just suck less lol). I hope Bungie can weather this storm and turn their studio around because their games are just incredible in my opinion. I just finished this 10 hour long video on Destiny lore and now have a 3 hour long video to finish the lore out then I am going to go back and play Destiny 1 & 2. Destiny has an incredible story/lore. I also believe Marathon does as well. And man the gunplay/gunfights is just insanely good. I hope Bungie, Destiny, and Marathon can turn this around because I don't want to stop playing their games.

Simply incredible.

I can't get enough of this game. I am so deeply curious about its world, lore and aesthetic. It is challenging, hilarious, rewarding, and wonderfully mysterious fun. It's worth the money.

There's Nothing Like This Game

This is the most engaging PvP game I've played in a long time. Don't listen to the the haters and critiques that's its too hardcore. The game is fairly simple and it gives as much as you put in. The visuals, audio and gameplay design all work in perfect harmony to immerse you in this brutal and unforgiving world. I work a 40 hr work, am in the middle of moving and have an active social life every weekend, yet I still make time to play an hr or two every other day or so and I can still beat other players. If you have friends, it makes it even better. If you do join us, welcome to Tau Ceti

Played 20 hours and deinstalled

It is hardcore, and even though I love trials of Osiris and usually go flawless there, here the game doe snot respect my time. Queue times (with Crossplay off) of 5 to 10 min are not acceptable for an extraction shooter. Not enough people are playing and too many are leaving. Onboarding is non existent and joining a season late is just not fun if you have a life. But even the streamers and gamers are leaving because it is just not rewarding enough to put an hour or two in after work.
