@jontree255 from a cold capitalistic sense, abandoning D2 wouldn’t track until after Marathon’s launch, the game is still making money after all.
Not that I think Bungie are planning to abandon D2 anytime soon, like D1 is still getting minimal support and it’s servers are live, I can’t imagine them walking away from both in quick succession.
@jontree255 I don’t see Marathon as a replacement, especially with it being a PvP focused extraction shooter, more something for Bungie to expand into. With some of the Lore coming from Veil Containment (Vex Origins etc), I suspect Bungie are at least hoping for another multi year arc for D2
