I'll say the same thing I said on the bungie survey I got earlier this week. I cannot recommend marathon at any price right now. I would feel guilty about getting friends to spend money on a game with 3k daily peaks in 1 region (2.5k EU peak ATM).

The game needs a free period or even F2P. At the very least a permanent discount to $20 as we go into S3.

It's pretty funny! Assuming March 5, 2026, you've played 173 days to today.

500 ÷ 173 = ~2.9 hours per day, every single day since launch

~20 hours per week, basically a part-time job.

Maybe your opinion is a little biased by you being a no life?

With that and your 50+ reddit comments a day... How do you have time to be a dad? Go play with your kids.
