Marathon’s game director @Ziegler_Dev reflects on the journey so far and the weird and wild path ahead. Here’s the gist of it: 🔹With the first season of Marathon we’ve created a strong core community. 🔹We're embarking on a multi-season journey built around growing from the seed of this strong community. 🔹We’re looking to solve some pain points for players: * Making the game less grindy, more rewarding * Making improvements to things like the UI/UX, matchmaking, end game meta, playing as solos/duos, etc. * Smoothing out onboarding 🔹We’re also going to build out more of the core game: * Adding new fun and mind-bending content: new and updated zones, Runner shells, new combatants, weapons, loot, and more * Building systems to make progressing more interesting 🔹We want to build more survival experiences for different moods, like if you want to full sweat or lean back and chill. * Exploring more pure PVP, PVE, and PVP-lite experiences * Continue experimenting with experimental queues to learn more around these experiences Other highlights: 🔹We're bringing back Duos for Season 2 with a rotating Duos queue. 🔹We're testing some experiments in Season 2 around PVE and PVP-Lite modes. 🔹We’re expanding the max size of your Vault and increasing faction progression rates in Season 2. 🔹We’ll talk more about Season 2 content like Night Marsh, the new Cradle progression system, and the Runner shell Sentinel, the week of May 25.
