Personally I didn't hate what was shown for marathon but theirs definitely a lot to be desired I want to see bungie push themselves outside of just destiny and flex those creative muscles having no experience with an extraction shooter Id love marathon to be my first time with one so here's my pro's and cons also no hate or harassment towards the devs these are just some thoughts and opinions [b]Pro's[/b] .As always the environmental design and skybox's at bungie have killed it .The OST so far has also been fun to listen too .The gunplay looked fun and tight .The world of marathons lore and story runs deep and I'm genuinely interested to see what happens narratively [b]Needs improving[/b] .The art style ! their are parts I liked but at other times especially when it came to the water it looked flat I get what their going for but that initial art style what was shown in the trailers painted a different picture and looked a lot more appealing having a stylised art style is not what people are hating its the way it looks and compares to those original first showings. . Dynamics everything just feels a little stiff having dynamic weather is great especially with environmental hazards but what about everything else having glass breaking shouldn't be the only thing to make a gunfight more exciting. .Where's the endgame ? what happened to the relics from older dev talks ? what am I getting all this loot for ? yeah their looks to be some vaults or AI guarded areas but theirs got to be like secrets ontop of deeper secrets such as secret weapons or high value loot the faction contracts are nice as an objective but that cant just be all their is [b]Cons[/b] . Personally I am really tired of hero shooters these days I'm in no need for another one especially after marvel rivals and would've preferred going into a match as an empty shell and finding these mods to give me new abilities to improve my character work towards a perfect build. . No solo mode or even matchmaking is going to turn people away so fast and will make or break for people to purchase a multiplayer PvP only game. . Not going Free to play I honestly don't get why theirs a price for entry even if its not premium especially when theirs most likely going to be MTX or battlepasses of sorts did we forget what happened to concord and releasing around the corner from borderlands 4 & GTA 6 ! . No kind of social hub or safe zone to make new teammates or trade loot with both players or vendors is kind of weird given this is a game what requires teammates TLDR I think marathon looks good and fun but it needs more to make it a hard sell after watching multiple interviews on youtube I keep hearing stuff like ''were thinking about adding X feature'' or maybe we'll see what happens'' those dont sound like confident words 5 months from release please take what the community is saying and what you guys want and delay the game into 2026 if need be
