"Marathon is not for you..."

This is a popular sentiment surrounding Marathon, that is; 'Marathon is not for the Destiny Community', This is further pushed by the developers of Marathon themselves and after thinking about it for awhile I realized... it's dumb. Not only is it dumb it's also just massively incorrect. So the idea of this statement is that if you're a fan/ enjoyer of the Destiny franchise you will not like Marathon because it's a different game from Destiny. To that I say "Why would I not like Marathon if I enjoy Destiny?" How on Earth did you jump to that braindead conclusion!?! Do you not realize that people play games other than Destiny? Destiny is not an 'all or nothing' kinda game. Even the most die hard Destiny connoisseurs will play different games in completely different genres. People are not criticizing Marathon because it's not the same as Destiny, they're criticizing it because it's a flawed game, in concept and execution. This whole "-blank- is not for you" is just a lazy and boring way to invalidate feedback from people you disagree with.

[/quote] Disagree. I don't think that is the idea behind the statement. I think the idea behind the statement is that most Destiny players seem to be pve people that don't like to play pvp and lose all their loot. And if you're a person that hates pvp, needs a story, wants to never lose their loot to a guy camping in the bushes, this game might not be something you like.
