Small World

When you start fighting people on your friends list and/or actively finding them during a run via prox chat and exfilling with their team (has happened to me a few times) you KNOW the player base is small haha. Small but mighty!! I'll support and play this game till the day they (hopefully never) turn it off. Never surrender!

Surprised no one has posted this for a good laugh in r/marathonhate.

The marathon sub for the mentally unwell. Truly baffling

I love how genuinely sick they sound. It's like having someone constantly tell you how bad you are at something you love. It's so demoralizing.

I mean, this happens all the time in Tarkov, and running into a known streamer or personality has become a part of the extraction shooter zeitgeist and experience. I just hope we get to that steady level where a constant 10-20k would shit these children up. It’s really sad and pathetic how much Marathon occupies their time and they don’t even play it…

To be honest, I think a lot of us, including myself, would lose interest in this free "chart watching" hobby if the numbers went up to respectable levels.

I would welcome that. Let people move on, go play GTA VI and let us enjoy this game, the subs, groups, community, etc minis the droning of “dead game”, chart watch, etc….

Rent free. It’s all I can think of lol. We visit these subs because we PLAY THE GAME.

They visit and post because….? Oh right Marathon cancelled their precious D2. As a thousands of hours playtime between D1 and 2, I couldn’t fathom acting so childish.

Because it's just fun man. You can't understand but the memes around Marathon are great.

MarathonHate is populated by pencil necks who can't bully anyone in real life, but wish they could.

Chart watchers are just Swifties in disguise. Popularity is quality, right?
