ARC Raiders vs Marathon - Why Bungie's Game Won't Kill the Extract

Episode 13 of Camping the Extract breaks down the latest ARC Raiders Shrouded Sky patch notes -- including controversial weapon nerfs to the Stitcher and Kettle, new ARC part crafting requirements pushing everyone into PVE, and new enemies the Comet and Firefly. Then Toxic and Nicky dive headfirst into Bungie's Marathon, the extraction shooter that some people think will kill ARC Raiders (it absolutely will not). Marathon's server slam just dropped, the UI has been called "the first ever font slop in a game," and the build complexity makes ARC Raiders look like a children's coloring book. Nicky infiltrates Bungie HQ on a consulting gig and discovers suspicious marinara in the lobby. Plus: a German listener named Tobias uses this podcast as a lullaby, the "Where the Fuck Are the Viewers From" segment discovers St. Helier in the Channel Islands, and Nicky gets served a mysterious subpoena by a stranger who vanishes into the fog. The outro genre is First Person Font Slop Industrial Panic Core with Subpoena Paper Cut Distortion and Jersey Cowbell Overdrive. Toxic's Jams from the Extract Volume 1 drops on Spotify this week.
