Marathon 2025 - Bungie's new AAAA Extraction shooter
How many does Bungie employ? I can only find stuff saying they have <1000 employees, but hopefully these cuts run very, very deep. Break out those "Learn to mine coal" memes.

They had around 800 employees prior to today. People inside were stating it was 50/50 between Destiny and Marathon. So, most of D2’s team is axed, but, surprisingly seeing Marathon devs, atleast some, being cut as well.
Justin Truman, the current studio head who was responsible for the infamous GDC talk were he discusses how they shouldn’t overdeliver, has reportedly been laid off.
Contractors are apparently getting cut to, if marathon loses those were going to see a season 3 that's as broken as launch cyberpunk and fo76, I have no faith that what remains of Bungie will be able to hold marathon together.
Chiming in again to say that post-launch layoffs were inevitable but I hope you Destiny losers are happy that your seething about a TEN YEAR OLD GAME ending live service resulted in a massive campaign against an extremely polished and entertaining (albeit massively overdeveloped/over-budget) shooter, ultimately resulting in positions being eliminated.
Steam reviews are clearly being tanked by weirdo diehards that are throwing a pissfit because they can't get NeW cOnTeNt, weird twitter accounts exist solely to talk shit about the game, and there are entire subreddits dedicated to shitting on Marathon. I'm sorry the $60 game that you got to enjoy for 10 years doesn't have new content coming (you can still play TEN YEARS of content lol) and sorry you're going to have to wait a bit longer for a new one (if the studio survives).
I basically gave up on multiplayer FPS two years ago but the style, low price ($40), deep lore and commitment to tasteful paid content (no rappers in the game) made me give this game a shot and it is one of my favorite games to come out in years. Tense to the point of reaching survival horror, great population of squad fills with mics, fun inventory management, a fun PvPvE blend, season wipes, and frequent updates have made this an absolute breath of fresh air.
Hopped on for two hours last night with some friends that haven't played all season and we hit Outpost with pretty basic gear. Ended up out-strategizing two different elite teams, stole two keys and loaded up on great gear before having one of the most tense exfils I can remember, barely surviving as a team tried to snipe us from a nearby rooftop.
Probably no convincing you at this point but the friends that haven't played for two months cannot wait to hop back on tonight and try another few runs. Gamers are such whiny babies and negative commentary always resonates further than positive feedback.
Considering the average dev time, we’ve probably got a few more years of it coming down the pipe before we start to see the “ah yes, this was when they realized the people they pander to don’t buy shit” shift occur.
Means we get a few more years of bombs to laugh at if nothing else.

But not to worry, we will have other be games to play while they’ll still be mazed rats longing for the good ol’ days of Destiny.
It’s an incredibly short lived victory for them.
It’s really just a question of when another game will come. I’ll miss Destroyer shell a ton, most fun I’ve had in a shooter game in a long time. Maybe I’ll try to git gud at Quake again.
You know, I legit do not understand why so many people are reluctant to look at games like Deep Rock Galactic and go "Hey, maybe we should make a fun PvE killfest for you and your friends to enjoy and chill in", especially after Overkill completely shat the bed with Payday 3 and Arrowhead with Helldivers 2. Market's wide open.

Former Bungo Fags on Twitter are saying that they, along side their leads, are being axed. Does that also mean higher management that actually made these decisions that led us to this? Not sure, but upper management positions in some shape or form are being fired.

Isn't it a common practice nowadays to hire people as contractors rather than as employees proper, for company's benefit or something? I assume you can essentially count them as staff, this distinction probably doesn't actually matter.

It's possible that management at Bungie also gets the boot, considering it's coming top down from Sony, from what I understand. But it's Sony that's also full of faggots, so who knows.
