Bungie is officially cooked.

Justin Truman is one of the most incompetent studio heads known to man. Now that he’s taking over, it makes sense as to why that TWID was what it was. Everything from the artificial grind to the lazy underdelivery of content is due to him. Prioritizing “Velocity” over “Efficency” and cautioning against “over delivering” is the typical corporate elitist mindset that plagues Bungie and leeches its players money and time.

  • Not so much a replacement as a battlefield promotion for Justin Truman. More heads gonna roll as Sony guts Bungie from the inside out. Something I missed first time around, from Variety [i] Parsons will be replaced by “Destiny 2” general manager and Bungie chief development officer Justin Truman, who has been named Bungie studio chief. Sources tell Variety [b]Bungie will no longer have a CEO[/b], and Truman’s position is now the top role at the Sony-owned company.[/i] also [i] Representatives for PlayStation declined request for additional comment Thursday.[/i] https://variety.com/2025/gaming/news/playstation-bungie-ceo-pete-parsons-exits-justin-truman-1236495462/

      Nah, don’t stress it. In a subsidiary integration, normally all of the C-suite find their way out of the door, one-by-one, relatively quickly. Besides, the state of the game really can’t get much worse, and Justin will likely be gone soon. IMO, the real thing to watch for is how Sony starts replacing leadership and what their vision for Destiny is.

      • I’m gona look at this with about four planets worth of salt. 1) I dont know the guys record other than he’s actually been in the studios working with the different teams, if certain streamers are to be believed. (And I’ll trust them as far as I can throw em) 2) I really want to believe that with the leave of Pete “Ima Buy Another Car” Parsons, there will FINALLY be some actual improvements. 3) This Bungie and Sony is not yet in absolute control 4) Battlefield 6, PalWorld, Minecraft, and Star Wars Battlefront exists. Worst case situation, there are options.

        • Any sufficiently advanced incompetence is indistinguishable from malice.
