Marathon Launches September, Isn't Free-To-Play - Kinda Funny Games Daily 04.14.25

As they told me, they already have plans to support Marathon with new maps, weapons, characters, and more as they develop it. But as always, there's the question of whether they'll do so at a fast enough pace to appease ever-ravenous players.

And importantly, Marathon also plans to use the seasonal reset model found in the likes of Diablo 4, where you'll be stripped of your loot and progress at the end of each season to do so again with new content and a new meta to mix things up.

While I could definitely see this working for Marathon, there's a question of how they'll manage to incentivize making that arduous climb from scratch each season. After playing enough Marathon to get a pretty good feel for it in its alpha state, I'm already fairly confident it'll scratch the Bungie PvP itch that's been left unscratched for a number of years now.

Here's hoping they knock it out of the park. You know, I asked for super chats over here and what we're going to do that way. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, right? And there was one. Here it is. FlyingPenguins super chats and says, Charging a box price for a shooter with three maps, a battle pass, and everything is wiped at the end of the season. I hope Bungie changes that.

Now, this one I'm actually pretty proud of, okay? And this person admitted they had too much time on their hands. Oh, my Lord, there's an essay. Nick Metzger did an essay. An actual essay. He wrote it to Professor Blessing Eddie Oye Jr., English 105, Advanced Game Showdown Studies. The Cowardice of Tim Getty is a farewell tour for a false king.

There comes a time in every long-running story where the truth finally comes out, the masks fall away, and the crowd sees their so-called hero for what he really is. For Kinda Funny's quote-unquote champion, Tim Geddes, that time is now. For too long, Tim has strutted around the Kinda Funny Game Showdown stage like some kind of trivia god. Racking up stars and drowning in his own hype.

But hype can only take you so far. And when Greg Miller, dash dash, kind of funny, is walking Chaos Engine, came to cash in Stars in the Bank, Tim didn't meet the moment like a champion. No, he packed his bags, clutched his limited edition Joy-Cons, and fled the state. Fled the state. This goes on for a while. That's one page, two, three. This is four pages of just an essay this man wrote.

You know what I mean? And I'll just read you the final three sentences here. Please. Four, I guess. The Tim Gettys era is over, not because someone took his stars, but because he ran before they could. The champ is here. You can have that one, too. You can look at that one.
