Körperlich konnte ich jetzt noch einen Marathon laufen gefühlt, aber gesundheitlich bin ich am Boden. So viele Dinge beschäftigen mich nachts, so dass ich nicht einschlafen kann. Und ich hab keinen richtigen Rhythmus mehr. Und das ist leider zu Gewohnheit geworden.

EDIT: Wanted to put u/DumbicusMaximus's comment at the top here, because it better articulates why I bothered writing this post. Also… holy crap some of y’all are sensitive. If the game is as good as you say it is, a random Reddit post from a washed dude isn’t going to kill it. It’ll be fine. What he's saying is that he enjoys many aspects of the game, except for how hardcore it is. Which is a sentiment I see for a lot of people that want to enjoy the game. Usually when people come across a game that is too hardcore or sweaty for them, like Tarkov or something, they just don't play it. But the fact that so many people still try to like it despite the struggle and frustration of being bad at PvP, means there's something really special about this game. Saying "well then don't play the game if it's too hard for you" doesn't solve anything. There's a big chunk of people that feel the same way OP does. EDIT 2: Also putting u/Usual_Rhubarb9276's comments here: I have the time to play Marathon and would like to be able to continue playing it. Retaining players like the OP is essential if the game is going to survive. They’ve already put in 40 hours, and the game hasn’t been out long. That’s enough to 100% a lot of other games. A legitimate time commitment. I love Marathon but the matchmaking times are a challenge, if the game can’t retain players like the OP it’s going to have a problem. Okay, so I preordered Marathon day one because the art style absolutely had me by the throat and the lore buildup made me feel like I was about to join a cool, doomed sci-fi cult. Now, for context, I am a casual gamer with a capital C. While I survived old COD and Halo lobbies, and played a decent bit of Destiny before the grind plus monetization started to feel terrible, these days I only have so many hours to throw at games before real life drags me back. That said, I gave this game a real shot. Unlike that "gamer dad" that quickly became a meme here, I put about 20 hours into the server slam and another 20 into release. This has actually been the main game I’ve been playing lately, which is saying something, because "adulting" rarely affords me much time. Now, I'm fully willing to concede that I may simply be washed. Like, maybe the old reflexes are in the graveyard. Maybe I’m cooked. Maybe my skill ceiling is “helpful idiot with decent intentions.” But this game is wildly punishing, and every mistake gets treated like you personally keyed Bungie’s car. I die a lot. But I kept going anyway, mostly running Triage and trying to support better teammates whenever crew fill or Discord actually paired me with human beings who use mics and don’t immediately wander into the wilderness with free kits. I even disabled crossplay for a little bit there, because you PC demons are on some kind of laboratory stimulant. Success was a little better, but the queue times were abysmal. Even so, I managed to claw my way to level 37, unlock all factions, and got to around 49k vault value. I know that’s pocket lint to some of you, but to me that felt like I had personally dragged my broken body up a mountain while Hans Zimmer played in the background. Then Cryo dropped. Man... that was the wall. I was hyped for Cryo. I was following the ARG stuff, checking for updates, doing the whole “maybe this is where it all clicks for me” routine. But the buy-in was already rough, because I can only afford to go die in there like 6–8 times before I’m back to grinding other maps for enough gear to re-enter. And because I’m usually playing support, I'm always making sure my better teammates get first pick of loot, which is fair, but it also means I’m living on scraps like a Dickensian child. As for the vault mechanics, after all this time, I have one key. One. Uno. A solitary, pathetic little key. And it’s for Outpost. I still ran Cryo four times because the atmosphere is incredible and the art team cooked; but every moment of awe got immediately invalidated by players who make me look like a tutorial NPC. I can already hear the "git gud," comments, but honestly… fuck that. I’d rather go live my life than optimize my suffering. At this point, I’ve kind of accepted that I’m never fighting the Compiler. I’m never seeing a gold weapon. I’m probably never seeing whatever cool future content this game has cooking, because the wall between me and it is apparently made purple-geared men named something like xX_ToothEconomist_Xx. And that genuinely bums me out. The lore is sick. The art style is insane. The gunplay feels great. But I think this game found its hardcore audience, and it’s... not me. Idk why I'm writing this. I’m not even necessarily asking for a casual mode. I know every game doesn’t need to bend around guys like me who work 50+ hour weeks and have other stuff going on in their lives. (I also DM a D&D campaign, volunteer locally, and I’m not about to neglect time with my wife just to clock in for my daily ass-kicking.) I guess I'm sad about it? Like, I genuinely loved my time with this game. But... After my fourth failed Cryo run, I went back to grinding Perimeter and got crew-filled with what I can only describe as sentient furniture (when my dumb ass is the best player on the team, something has gone horrifically wrong). We got hunted down by a squad in purples while trying to exfil with scraps and the illusion of progress. And with that... I guess I'm done. I didn’t play two hours and rage quit. I didn’t walk away because I "didn’t get it." I didn’t refuse the learning curve. I stayed. I put the time in. I tried to learn, to find my role, to keep up. But at some point you have to admit the game’s doing exactly what it’s supposed to and you’re just not on that level. Anyway, I hope those of you who are cracked out of your minds are still enjoying this thing years from now. I mean that sincerely. But for me, this is where I step off. Bungie made something truly beautiful. I just wish I was better at it. submitted by /u/ryanjamessez to r/Marathon [link] [comments]

Was initially very skeptical-- been pretty deep into Arc Raiders, and Marathons marketing was... Bumpy at best the last six months. Now that the game is out, and I am seeing how quickly the dev team is trying to iterate I am... Intrigued. Turns out, maybe the marketing team just didn't know how to market the game well, because after having watched some solid streams it looks like a ton of (sweaty?) fun, even for an old timer like me. The aesthetic looks great, and the play seems meaingfully different compared to Arc Raiders. Whats everyones experience been so far? Edit: well ok, you’ve convinced me, see you in Tau Ceti. 😎 submitted by /u/NetflowKnight to r/playstation [link] [comments]

I’m worried for this game. Marathon has such a great theme, music, and most importantly gunplay, but it doesn’t appeal to casual players. Due to this and a number of other factors, the game lost half of its player base between server slam and release, and another half in the first week since release. My question to you guys is what do you think would save it and cause players to come back? Tweaks to time to kill? New game modes that are less punishing? New maps? New characters? Is it doomed no matter what they do?? I wanna hear your thoughts fam. submitted by /u/ZaekTV to r/Marathon [link] [comments]

So I loved playing Arc Raiders, the vibe and lore is awesome, the gunplay doesn't feel great but the attachments are meaningful and there is versatility in your options. However I have always hated, I mean HATED PvP. Then I played Marathon. I didn't hate PvP. Same genre, same principle, but why did it feel so different? It was bothering me for about a week before I realized what it was.... RPG brain. Arc raiders humanity is fighting for its very survival, against ruthless killing machines. Shooting each other makes no sense from a role play perspective. Marathon we are robot "runners" doing missions for off world factions. No attachment to other players, no greater good, just self interest. PvP players, I don't hate you. I hate the narrative that my RPG brain generates, I would imagine most white knight/sheriff/couch psychologist players judging you have similar backgrounds. RPG players tent to immerse themselves in the story, and to that end killing each other for loot would make you a sociopath. However this a game, and trying Marathon showed me my own bias within Arc. Just a different point of view for others who are curious about the PvP/PvE divide within the community. submitted by /u/edward-1992 to r/ARC_Raiders [link] [comments]
