Sarcastic Gamer pokes a bit of fun at Bungie's expense over it's latest tease that they may be developing a MMO.
From the article: When speaking in hyperbole, declaring the “best ever,” or offering mile high platitudes, I usually reserve the good stuff for Valve games. When looking back on Bungie’s career, however and when hearing about a possible new MMO from Bungie’s creative director Joseph Staten at GDC Online, earlier this week, I pondered one question: “Why is Bungie the greatest game developer of all time?” Why?
Because Bungie can do no wrong. A MMO for their next game? A MMO for their next game."
Bungie's extraction shooter revival for Marathon has been making progress despite studio struggles, but one change makes it sound way worse.
Amid ongoing anxiety within Bungie following layoffs last year, the studio is now preparing for another shakeup, this time on Marathon.
Talk about mismanaged Bungie is a studio of tremendous potential and have made some of the greatest shooters to date. Sony pushed them to just make another Destiny style game and consult on other studios live service games and are now getting thrown under a bus as the pivot away from predominantly gaas games is unfolding.
I'd love to see a world where Bungie can focus on telling great sci fi stories again away from a live service dungeon but we all know that's a pipe dream
This studio has had three owners and its never worked well with any of them....Management has issues
Destiny 2’s game director Joe Blackburn is stepping down ahead of The Final Shape, leaving Tyson Green to take the reins of the PS5 and Xbox FPS.
As someone who bought every story DLC for DESTINY 2 but not every season. the first thing I would do as game director is , if anybody pre-orders The ?Final Shape , they will be able to play all older DLC and seasons with purchase of FINAL SHAPE. . I think that would bring back a lot of DESTINY 2 plsyers who have not experienced the seasons a chance to play season activities before Final Shape comes out.
ama gonna let you finish... but Beyonce was the greatest developer of all time... all time :)
I just don't see them doing an MMO, especially if it's multiplatform since Microsoft isn't really all that MMO friendly when it comes to the xbox. Hope it's not one too since I don't care for MMO's and it would be a shame for people as talented as Bungie to waste their talent on something like that.
Funny stuff.
