Will Marathon Survive?

The game has only been losing players every single day since launch and the blame lies on people talking about it?

Really makes no sense.

This game suffered some hate before launch, like any multiplayer game Sony does for a while will face the "next Concord" stupidity, as the Horizon game is already facing too, but since launch it cooled out a lot and people are still trying to play it to this day. The biggest damage was done before launch, since then the game is failing by itself.

Marathon problem really is not the community, is the game not being able to keep people playing. Even people who love the game have been dropping it too, and nothing is being able to bring new people to try it out.

"and the blame lies on people talking about it?"

Talking about it woudln't be a problem. It's propably biggest hate train I've ever seen in gaming (maybe on pair with DA: The Veilguard). On every post, every video, every twitt about Marathon there is always dozens of steam chart warriors who, tbh, quite efficiently discourage new people from trying Marathon. No new players equals player count going down (it's not only Marathon problem, every game looses players, look at Arc) cos even HC fans of the game is not enough. Funny thing is most of them didn't even play Marathon, they just want it become Concord 3 and will do everything they can to destroy it.
