Honest ex bungie dev, very well spoken & confident publicly - unlike most, gives his opinions on marathon but drops a few bombs about destiny & bungie, both good & bad. If you don't wanna watch > [spoiler] A lot of Devs didnt agree with dungeons being paid content - they were supposed to be added as a thank you to fans for sticking around. He's not played destiny since the money push got upped after witch queen - doesn't agree with it & destiny was his go-to game forever Don't trust content creators who are sponsored, they're absolutely told what they can & can't say & views are heavily selfish, bad views affect sales so they can't say bad things, hence paying them to lock down opinions. Destiny franchise is done (for bungie) regarding player growth & income & the studios future absolutely depends on marathon succeeding, they could disappear if it fails, & quickly. Says bungie absolutely need a new audience & income so marathon though risky was absolutely needed. Says the last few years have really bad for bungies image & they know it. [/spoiler] [spoiler] Different source but thenmarathin or bust statement is backed up by Jason Schrierer & Jeff grubb - also the leaks by a different dev who said destiny's end date is 2027 lines up with edge of fate being a 2yr story so ending 2027. I think they genuinely don't plan for after that because of the weight on marathons success so I'm not convinced it ends in 2027 - but that's the studio feeling right now, 2027 the end. [/spoiler] I found this very interesting because he's worked there & knows how everything works, he seem like a nice guy with no axe to grind just talking the truth. A lot of what he says may seen obvious or already known but seeing an ex employee say it adds weight imo.
