>>28001If it’s fun I don’t care. I’m just glad both digital extremes, Bethesda and bungee are making new games while the rest of the AAA gaming space now takes on average a decade to finish a major title

>>28001I want to know the reasoning behind this. Usually you take old dead IPs and "reimagine" them because the name recognition can boost sales, but how many people know about the Apple exclusive sci-fi shooter from the 90s that "the Halo/Destiny guys" made before Halo/Destiny beyond people who are already deep into video games?

>Halo is mentioned, themes are repeated throughout the games

Are these the game version of someone's Time Cube-tier worldview?

To be fair, if they did something like Doom 2019 or the new Wolfenstein games, then it's just going to end up being similar and compared to Halo, specifically Bungie's Halo games.
Personally I think they should have just called it something else even if it's set in the Marathon universe, I know they've stuck with the name Marathon because
>the players are called "Runners" hahahagedit?
But it's not a sequel or even really a reimagining of the previous games and the UESC Marathon doesn't look like it's going to appear, there must be so many names they could have come up with to link it to the Marathon universe that people who know will know, while not begging one-to-one comparisons with the old series.
