I’ve been hitting Marathon hard. It’s very good. It’s more casual than Tarkov and more PVP focused than Arc Raiders, with quick runs and a pacing that is reminiscent of battle royales. The gunplay is excellent and has a bit of aim assist so you don’t have to be cracked to have a chance if you play smart. The sound design is excellent and the music is lovely - the whole art direction is confident and different and I’m just happy to see a shooter that actually has some personality. Somehow on top of this it’s got an interesting story and world building to piece together and quite in-depth upgrade and build systems.

Also chuds are extremely pissed about it.
