I was writing up a Marty Tribute thread when I realized the real reason they fired him--it was not some arbitrary sexual harassment thing or some kind of attitude problem. Bungie fired Marty to fuc­k over its fans. And they did not do it by accident, in fact they strategically planned it all out.

Marty's unwarranted forced departure was the final straw in a long line of fuc­k ups and bad decisions on Bungie's part that made the majority of the old community leave. But as I am now discovering, Bungie didn't "accidentally" do this. Bungie got its old community to leave because they did not want their old community to have a voice in the new Destiny community. Why was this you ask? Because Bungie wanted a younger audience to cater to; they did not want their aging Halo fans playing Destiny.

But why wouldn't Bungie want as many people playing Destiny as they can? Well, that's because younger audiences have lower standards as they haven't been exposed to all that many videogames, and thus, Bungie can save money by delivering shittier products in more expensive bundles so long as they are selling it to an ignorant population of people. THIS is the reason why Marty was fired. It was all a part of Bungie's master plan to scam stupid kids and to have a minimum amount of backfire from those would call out Bungie on their bullshit.

I've been saying this for years, but Bungie is no longer the friendly faced group of videogame creators they were a decade ago. Bungie is a corrupt corporation who has no intention of delivering quality games to their fans. They only care about making money and if they can do that by scamming dumb kids then they will not hesitate to do so.

The only question that remains is whether or not Marty was in on it, or if he was just a victim to Bungie's vitriolic business agenda.

no

And this isn't why they fired him, although it would be fun if this was true

I'm pretty sure Activision was looking to save $$$, and rather than keep Marty on after the Release of Destiny and keep paying him, even though there likely wasn't going to be much work for him to do, they decided to Axe him.

Mind you, still doesn't make Bunglevi$ion any less of a piece of shit. Most of the other shit they did was more than enough to kick out a large portion of the older community.

The wonderful thing about people is that we can justify anything.

I've never been a part of b.net nor have I really played many Halo games, but that's still really fucked up! No wonder my fiancé refuses to buy the new games. He has all of the older games, a master chief helmet, one of the movies, and a few of the Halo books. Damn they just failed at their finest.

That's retarded.

No u

which he got anyway


Unrelated news, but Marty founded a new studio a couple weeks ago. Was it posted here?

yeah a couple people talked about it. The thread didn't generate much activity though so a lot of people probably missed it

Or because Marty was an overpaid, one-trick pony working for a company that was rapidly cutting costs and changing in structure and goals. It's not a huge mystery why he was fired.

this was so bad, i couldnt even finish reading it

tl;dr
