That makes even less sense to me. Nothing in the original game is about collecting resources or leaving the ship
Nope. I don't really know why they decided to do this, but it does use the existing lore. The Phor are going to be involved, and a bunch of other Marathon stuff is going to be used. It's almost the exact opposite game mode of what Marathon was though.
I think it’s because a game with challenging puzzles and compelling story takes work and talent and a game that says “collect 20 widgets and get back to the extraction point” can be churned out like cheap hot dogs by overworked devs.
