"What ultimately broke me and my Blizzard career was I got called into the CFO's office and he sits me down and he says—he gives me a date which at the time was 2020 and was going to slip to 2021, but at the time it was 2020—and he said: 'Overwatch has to make [redacted] in 2020, and then every year after that it needs a recurring revenue of [redacted]' and then he says to me 'if it doesn't do [redacted] we're going to lay off 1,000 people, and that's going to be on you.' And that was the biggest fuck you moment I've had in my career, it felt surreal to be in that condition."

This is a deranged thing to say to someone wtf. www.pcgamer.com/games/fps/ov...

Marathon ignores extraction shooter 'rules' and is better for it By stripping away the mile-long checklist, Bungie makes every Marathon match about the fights.

I raised my eyebrow at Marathon's small maps, lack of safe pockets, and restrictive quests before release. Turns out there's a point to it all. www.pcgamer.com/games/fps/ma...

Hat tip to this Assassin who ninja smoke bombed me and legitimately *disappeared*. Poof, gone. I wasted another 2 minutes looking around after this, but we no longer shared a plane.

I mean it's not a *bad* sign for Marathon that multiple journos visiting SF for GDC have to get their fix in.

Bungie snuck a bunch of Halo guns into Marathon The "CE" Tactical handgun. Oh they're not even hiding it.

Marathon has a charged energy pistol that melts shields. It has a lock-on SMG. It has a burst-fire battle rifle with a hipfire upgrade. It has a pistol called the "CE."

Close enough, welcome back Halo?

That's a design choice I'd bet dollars came directly from Hunt Showdown (though in that game you can burn bodies to assert pressure on revives)

Possible that's what's happening here, i also wonder if this is post-release downsizing that was going to happen no matter what.

Nice. I've been running Rook just to learn how the dang map works lol. Still not sure what keycards are needing for what, but I took an elevator to the pinwheel, that was cool.

Rook run on Outpost. Narrowly avoided this squad, looted their scraps, got out safe. Cool game.
