Welp, They Finally Broke Our Bud Datto Media

He's so right. There's a suit at Bungo that got paid for this decision. More concerned with the next few months of $$ than the next few years of players.

They could not make it more obvious that they plan to put D2 on life-support after TFS.

That’s the crazy thing though, and I’m sure part of why datto is so furious.

After the layoff fiasco, we’ve basically learned that bungie is SCARED. That they NEED destiny to keep the lights on, at least for the next 3 years. And they’re scared because it’s tracking the wrong direction.

After we learned ALL that stuff… this is what 5hey do. It’s unforgivable. They’re lucky I’m far too invested to pass on TFS. But I can tell you for certain. Even if TFS is great, I’m done after it. They cannot be trusted. That’s my exit point

wait. why do we think bungie is scared? they seem pretty keen on dropping the destiny saga and focusing on marathon instead after FS.

recent news coming out that after the layoffs, Marathon is being internally delayed to 2025 and staff is being pulled from that project back to Destiny. I'm guessing they need the revenue from it and expectations for Marathon and their other title (that might have been cancelled?) are not doing so good from playtest reactions.

hence the delay for TFS. they were initially just gonna drop it and go but it seems they kinda need it to be good now.
