    Marathon isn’t a basket I’d have put very many eggs in. If it were treated as a fun side project like Blood Dragon (or arguably ODST), I don’t think things would be so dire. It shouldn’t have been their “next big thing”. It should have been a neat side thing.

      Expect gummybears to have stolen art, specifically from kids drawings from elementary

    • Didn't expect something like this to come from Paul Tassi, proud of him. This was actually a really well put together article and explained his viewpoints well. Doesn't exactly fix him bending the knee to "The Acolyte" and going after SW fans but it's a nice step towards the road of redemption. [spoiler]I'm just memeing a bit, Paul Tassi has always on average done solid gaming articles[/spoiler]

      • Plagiarism aside, Marathon probably won't succeed in its current iteration. A significant rework is required, which will probably entail a revised launch date. Paul Tassi is merely echoing what other content creators are saying.

      • I came out here to see who has commented on that - it’s a brutal story. I follow PT regularly and I was just reading it at lunch. Really dampened my spirits. I like Paul’s game industry coverage, so it hits hard to read all of that coming from him. The visual theft really gutted me. Unacceptable…
