Microsoft and Sony sign deal to keep Activision’s Call of Duty on PlayStation::Microsoft and Sony have signed an agreement to keep Activision’s best-selling Call of Duty series available on PlayStation, after the conclusion of the deal.
I’m sitting here wondering why the fuck anyone plays CoD to begin with.
It’s a relatively consistent and fun arcade shooter. We don’t need to bring the gatekeeping that you see on other platforms. Let people like what they like.
Ever release is broken and they care less and less the more money that they get. That’s my problem. Not that I don’t have nostalgia or don’t genuinely still enjoy the games
For a casual player , it doesn’t matter. It’s usually just cosmetics that are paid although apparently there’s a pay to win skin in DMZ? Either way , the gameplay loop is fast , fun , and it scratches an itch. I had a lot of fun with mw remake , my only problem is my friends have moved on from fps so it’s not as fun to play alone. I do agree they treat their customers pretty badly and it’s a money grab , but the base game is still fun. You don’t need to spend money on cosmetics if you don’t want to , least in the regular multiplayer.
I think you are confused with the Battlefield games, which have been horribly broken at launch every single time since 1942. The CoD games are creatively bankrupt and plagued with micro transactions, but they are usually functional.
It’s basically the vanilla option for people that don’t play sports games. If you have any interest in shooters, it’s got a great ROI
From most peoples perspective (not mine though), nobody can make an FPS shooter as good as a call of duty game. There are “people who play games” and there’s “gamers”.
People who play games are satisfied with the yearly release of a somewhat consistent quality FPS game, but gamers are aware of the (potential) better alternatives.
Call of Duty is still decent, if you don’t look too closely at it. Warzone and DMZ are enjoyable in small quantities. 6v6 is fine if you play 2-3 matches then turn it off.
