Marathon can shoot in the foot without one function of Bungia

Bungie, Dear Creator Halo Series, working on its first non nonFate a project for more than ten years and is called Marathon. Although initial impressions may indicate differently, Marathon There is no new intellectual property. Rather, it is a restart of the classic franchise of Bungia, which was created in the first days of society. Original Marathon Games were released exclusively for Apple Mac and all were sci-fi shooters from the first person, somewhat reminiscent Halo. The Marathon According to modern standards, the series is incredibly basic, but for its time it was rather revolutionary.

First installment in Marathon The franchise, which was published in 1994, was one of the first FPS titles to prioritize the narrative of the Nedy think of Run-and-Gun. Marathon He did not mark any cutscenes, but had many terminal protocols scattered in his environments, many of which contained a large tradition of setting the game.

Marathon has bad news for Nintendo fans

Marathon's developer, Bungia, confirms disappointing messages that may not surprise Nintendo fans, but it is still a significant decline.

Unlike its predecessors, the marathon restart will not have a single player campaign

Although it is based on a franchise that may be best known for its story, Bungie is new Marathon The game is a shooter for extraction of multiplayer service. Has more in common with, let's say Escape from TarkovBefore some of Bungie's retro fps titles. While Bungie confirmed this Marathon will have a story, most of the narratives of the game will be told through seasonal rhythms and not through any content for one player, somewhat like Fate.

In addition to MMOS as Final Fantasy 14Most multiplayer video games for multiplayer only try to tell cohesive stories. It is not so surprising that the narration in the upcoming Bungia Marathon Reboot will not play a big role in the overall name. This means that the fact that the game does not come with a story -based content feels like a missed opportunity, especially because the newly released trailer for the game shows how much potential of its futuristic environment – the extraterrestrial planet Tau Ceti IV – has when it comes to narration.

Marathon's Cinematic Short shows how much potential to have a game -based campaign

Right at the end of the recent Marathon Unveiled Livestream, Bungie showed an eight -minute short short, which he looked into the players Marathon universe. Short, directed by Spanish animator Alberto Mielgo (best known for his work Love Death + Robots and Spider-Man: To the spider), has an incredibly distinct artistic style that is inspired from the new Marathon aesthetic. It is watched by two runners, a defect and emptiness who fight against each other as they try to clean up the prey and survive in a desert alien wasteland. Every time they die, runners find themselves inside new artificial bodies and have to go through a special procedure to remind them of their human self.

Although it can be marketing material for video game, Mielgo's Short can tell a very interesting story and cover a lot of complex topics in minutes. Serves not only as an effective way of displaying MarathonThe loop for extraction shooters in film form, but also stands on its two legs as a high quality short film. So it is unfortunate that the real game for which this short is to have very small such film content. Due to the lack of Bungie campaign Marathon Reboot will probably not have much cutscenes, AI, when yes, is unlikely to be at the same level of quality as this short.
