Bungie surprised everyone when they announced Marathon as their next big game \u2013 a sci-fi PvP extraction shooter that is drawing some comparisons to Doc\u2019s upcoming Deadrop title from his studio Midnight Society. After watching the teaser trailer and the rest of the games shown off at the event, Doc took some time to read up a bit more about Marathon on its website. The ever-confident two-time was even a bit surprised that Marathon merchandise was already available, something he called \u201ccocky\u201d but soon admitted that he liked the studio\u2019s confidence in the game. Dr Disrespect says the game industry \u201cneeds\u201d games like Marathon When a fan pointed out that the game will be multiplayer-focused \u2013 something confirmed in an interview with the devs, Doc couldn\u2019t help but voice his approval. \u201cGood. We need large-scale multiplayer games,\u201d he said. \u201cSomething at Triple A levels.\u201d Dr Disrespect has been pushing about the need for alternatives in the FPS multiplayer space for quite some time while frequently bashing games such as Call of Duty Warzone. (segment begins at 4:53:02) As for whether or not Doc felt threatened by PlayStation\u2019s latest offerings, it doesn\u2019t seem like the two-time is fazed. When asked if the gaming industry was \u201csaved,\u201d Dr Disrespect had an interesting take. \u201cI think there are some opportunities. I think there are some big opportunities,\u201d the banned Twitch streamer remarked. We\u2019ll have to see what the future holds, especially as Doc prepares to launch his own game to compete with the other blockbusters on the market. For now, anyway, while he has respect for Marathon, he doesn\u2019t seem to concerned that it will compete with Deadrop.
