With all the bad press around Bungie, there are still a lot of people there making the game and I have to imagine they want to make a game that makes us happy. Were I the one utilizing my talents to create something I was proud of...and everyone just shat all over it?? I would be preeeettty heartbroken.

That's just the nature of creative works. I've worked hard on stuff that I really dug, and reviewers tear it apart. If you can't stand people possibly not liking what you do, being in the business of making art isn't for you. I've worked on plenty of projects I knew could be so much better, but you simply have to do what you can and be as proud of your contribution as possible.

This is all also predicated under the assumption Marathon is actually good. It's extremely mid in my opinion. And in this climate, with this much excellent competition, mid ain't gonna cut it.
