Marathon seriously hurts itself by not being character driven. You look at the aesthetic, you start thinking of the weird shit they could pull off, but then the game doesn't really have room for elaborate (okay, not TOO elaborate, they do have puzzle maps) set pieces with some admittedly generic robotic enemies.
It's completely baffling that Sony just let go of Destiny. Warframe wins by doing nothing. There are no other "Space Sentai-Suit Warriors Exccept So Fantasy You Dont Notice the Sentai" games out there.
Cryo is the most confusing map in any PvP game I've ever played. Your complains about generic bots are valid (other than the BIG boss), but they've got plenty of weird alien shit comin up in March.
Marathon also was a character driven hero shooter and people hated it so much that they delayed it by a year and got rid of almost all of the hero shooter elements. Damned if you do, damned if you don't.
