I think what’s going on is
1. Sony hoovered up the best staff and put them on other projects.
2. The best of the rest are working on Marathon.
3. The staff left working on D2 have (understandably) low morale.
4. Bungie as a company are [b]desperate[/b] to move on from Destiny. Similar to how they wanted away from Halo.
5. Destiny is only being strung out long enough to pay for Marathon (they hope).
It’s going to be interesting to see what happens when Marathon tanks.

Reading between the lines, if Marathon tanks bungie are gone. Everyone knows it, no one's saying it out loud in public, Jason schrierer came close to it on skill ups podcast. But discords speak loudly, mass exodus of staff come summer 26 when the final Sony payments are processed to staff regardless. Destiny is now run by the seasonal team, mostly new Devs, it's been going in a different direction since they hired new expansion & seasonal teams for lightfall (expansion team since got laid off) & dattos theory that it's gonna continue on that path, maybe harder, is very likely true...
