Didn’t hit traction fast enough. That’s enough now.
Tough outcome for the team.
“Build it and they will come” doesn’t hold anymore.

Player: “I’ve been here since launch.”
Me: “And the story’s been with you the whole time.”

Bungie doesn’t get a free pass from me. I don’t care how fun Marathon is; predatory microtransactions, currency manipulation, and single‑use paid cosmetics aren’t “mistakes,” they’re choices. Gamers deserve better than being treated like ATMs. #Marathon #Bungie #GamingNews #LiveService #GameDev
