Morale at developer Bungie - the iconic first-person shooter studio behind Destiny and the original Halo games - is reportedly at an all-time low, with some employees unsure about whether their upcoming Marathon reboot can meet its September release date.
In case the scandal hasn't reached you yet, earlier this week, futuristic indie artist Fern 'Antireal' Hook accused the studio of using her 2017 art portfolio as inspiration (to put it mildly) for Marathon, without permission or payment. She also posted side-by-side screenshots of her own art work next to Marathon's alpha test, with very similar iconography, patterns, fonts, and sometimes even words appearing in both.
