    Funny. My worst fear is being stuck in the middle of the ocean with no boats or land in sight. But I’m trying to be more open-minded so I guess I shouldn’t judge.

    … but also at the same time my greatest fear about the gaming industry is that all indie games will start having battle passes and subscriptions. But I guess some people who still think the base version of Call of Duty is worth the yearly $70 subscription fee might be deathly afraid of being reminded that MW3 is actually just MW2 with a few new guns.

    You know what’s crazy? The original Modern Warfare 3 from 2009 is still $40 on steam. Black Ops 2 from 2012 is $60.

    COD pricing is insane. For comparison the Halo MCC which includes six games, two of which are remastered, is $40.

    I think CoD pricing is affected by the fact that usually, it's mum that's paying for it

    They are smoking unfiltered crack at activision-blizzard. Just don't play them. Or pirate. Not like they are a very wonderful company to their own employees.

    In fact, it's actually better to pirate them and use Plutonium for Multiplayer. This is due to the fact that many pre-Infinite Warfare Call of Duty titles have unpatched RCE vulnerabilities that Activision never bothered to fix, but have been in Plutonium.

    Battle passes are fine when done right. Deep Rock Galactic, for example, adds all the cosmetics from the pass into the random loot pool after the season ends.

    Most battle passes fucking suck though. Like in overwatch where you pay for the privilege of unlocking things through dozens of hours of gameplay.

    They make COD so stupid. Launch COD 2, "Welcome to Warzone, the game you didn't buy but we want you to play and buy stuff because fuck you, give me money".

    Who's buying this shit anymore? The last game I got was the original MW2. None of my friends have bought CoD games in ages. Am I just in the wrong friend circles?

    Nah fam, you and your friends are just getting old. It's the kids these days who are suckers for buying cash-cow and money milking games. Because they are kids and don't give a shit about money with respect to quality.

    I think there are fairly good odds none of my gaming friends have ever bought a CoD game.

    Not that we all play amazingly refined games, there is plenty of junk and regret-ware, and a lot of other FPS games - just no one ever got into CoD.

    My worst fear is that thing with the face of a man which stalks the deep woods.

    Last COD I tried to play was the new MW, bought it cheap digitally. After forcing to download WZ for that shitty launcher, it couldn’t start on the PS5, kept freezing and crashing. After several rounds of back and forth with PS customer service, and wasting hours on reinstalls, they finally admitted they don’t have a fix, and gave me back my money.

    Will never touch this shitpile again (and I used to like COD around the old MW and BO times).

    Anyone want to bet on this game still outselling the last one?

    No problem, just don't play that crap.
