As the first season of Marathon comes to a close, I decided to look back on my stats for the last three months on YouTube and here.
It was the best 3 month run I’ve had. Ever.
I want to thank everyone who watched, subbed, followed, and interacted.
And some special thanks…
The irony of all these miserable bums calling Hollowtide a shill is that he's legitimately the most slept AND unapproved-for-the-marathon-creater-program marathon creator in the space
I was having a good time playing Marathon, and then I unlocked Outpost...
Holy shit man that map is phenomenal. The increased PvP, environmental hazards, puzzles, and moment to moment tension when all that comes together...

Holy fuck people are so miserable over video games
Play Arc if you like it
Play Marathon if you like it
Play both? They're different experiences
Just shut up about it
Just a little something I threw together, you can put in work with minimal gear if you are familiar with your kit

So if you're an indie game dev out there, silently... passionately cooking up the next big arena shooter which relies on tight gunplay, movement, and tactics rather than regurgitated hero archetypes... I'm fucking cheering for ya
The games that brought me the most joy this year came completely out of left field; and most of the 'highly anticipated' hitters were just okay
And with what I'm seeing of the landscape right now, not sure 2026 will be much different
