Seems Bungie want this to be for a small amount of players. The players that enjoy this type of game will say its good but if the players keep dropping at the current rate then there won't be anyone to play with. That's the downside when you make a niche live service game.

There is some middle ground that can be achieved but unfortunately requires leaning more into the pve side. Arc Raiders seem to be hitting that balance.

but its *not* unique lol

shyt the original marathon would be a more unique experience than the current game we got. the fact bungie can hear fans tell them for decades that RNG is dumb and they still force it into time gated content on top of arguably the worst battlepass in the business is proof critics don't even wipe their mouth before dropping reviews too

Breh, you haven’t even played the game.

So how would you know what uniqueness it has.

Video games are interactive not a spectacle you just passively watch and get it.

Like I said earlier you keep coming back to thread to voice your opinion on something you have not even tried.

At least the reviewers have spent sometime with the game.

The battle pass does leave a lot to be desired and Bungie has addressed this and stated that they will be adding more content to it within the free tier throughout the season.

Like, breh stop sitting on the fence and try the damn game, you so interested in what Bungie got going on, stop window shopping and play.

Because you not addressing any aspect of the game, you just repeating shallow talking points where I can tell you haven’t played.

The battle pass was a topic of discussion on launch, Bungie addressed it.

Yet, you making statements saying the game is not unique but you haven’t explained how.

You making an argument but no evidence, that’s why I want you to tell me in depth, what aspect of the game aren’t unique.

the battlepass is a complete whiff and for a game that's objectively bringing in less than zero new players, you need real MTX to keep the lights on - and they do not have it. 'bungie addressed it' doesn't unfukk that situation in a timeline that matters

and i was literally NDA'd up in here with other folks while you talking about what the post count is :skip:the same things i said then still track. if people were completely turned off by the server slam and alpha why on earth do you think they're gonna stick around for cryo? less people been showing up at each stage of this.

no evidence :dead:

i never once said stop having fun. look forward to F2P in august if Sony is feeling generous. ignore button right there
