  That’s good for the artist, but I’ll be very surprised if this game recovers from the lost goodwill. Especially with how successful arc raiders is, I don’t see this game carrying the hype it did before

    This game didn’t stand a chance regardless of this incident.

      I’d bet some significant amount of the hype was from people thinking “Oh, sick! The Marathon franchise is getting a revival!” without realizing that the new game had essentially no relation to the Marathon franchise they remembered. I don’t know who they think is sitting around thinking, “You know what I want? Another live service extraction shooter.”

    Honestly, I hope it flops for what they have done. I’m happy for Arc Raiders, a great example of how they should have done it.

      You hope it flops because of a few assets stolen from an artist.

      I hope it fails for parading around the dead corpse of the Marathon IP with really bad makeup and the limbs sewn on in the wrong places.

      We are not the same.

      Same. I had hope originally because I’m a huge halo fan .. but this is not the same Bungie that made halo CE – reach

  I hope the game is a running simulator, I gotta get back to training for the 40k after what the panny demmy locky downies did to my body
