This honestly says more about how NOT well Destiny 2 is performing anymore since this is the quarter that ended in March, which is when Marathon released.

What will be more telling is next quarterly results.

While Bungie execs will still get their payday, what a slap in the face to their egos when your parent company publicly says your company is not worth what was paid.

Bungie was never worth what Sony paid, Sony paid that much to have Bungie "teach" other studios to do liveservices games on top of their own games.

Bungie was the one that said TLoU multiplayer was not good and got Sony finally drop it before release.

As those plans have long failed, yeah, Bungie is now way less worthy for Sony.

I always thought it was funny that was the major reason why Sony bought Bungie. Destiny is one of those franchises that since day one has had a roller coaster of an experience in quality that continues to this day.

For every good release Destiny had, it was always followed by a disappointing release, and that cycle still hasn’t stopped.

I honestly think Pete Parsons showed off all the projects that Bungie were supposedly working on (with no intention of actually making them) and they were on high by the EXCELLENT Witch Queen expansion, and Sony bought it.

Only to find out the hard way none of the projects were properly taking place and then Bungie released the arguably worst expansion in Destiny’s history in Lightfall that sunk the games reputation so hard that it hurt the following excellent expansion in Final Shape.
