      Activision doesn't care about such things one bit. I stopped buying their products after fall of 2019(release of CoD2019 that attributed several irl warcrimes to other nations, censorship of Blitzchung and Hong Kong, inner purge in the company). But you kept on buying their products. Just like I did when I ignored the Red Shirt guy only to be reminded what a shitty corpo that is. And after you left, they still have enough customers. And will have even more. They can rape children on live TV and they'd still have enough target audience for their products.

    I remember watching my friend play black ops zombies after trying it myself and seeing the cool tech I didn't know about was mind-blowing. Discovering map secrets, learning how to access certain areas in different ways, what perks are strong, which guns are good even if you might not think so. I remember thinking shotguns were pretty good because they deal a lot of damage and you can interrupt the reload. But seeing my friend ditch shotguns to get weak rapid weapons to farm points was such a great revelation moment. Same for learning how to get pack a punch on the maps where it was more esoteric like tranzit. Now it's just like "No, stop having tech. Stop having interesting things. Here's your damn pack a punch. You don't get points anymore. Now play."

    A little insight on the part at 20:15 coming from someone who worked on COD games for almost a decade, Activision always wanted a COD every year, and so the 3 "main" studios (IW, Treyarch, Sledge) would usually switch off, as you indicated. But what was rarely known from the outside was that the studio wouldn't truly get that full 3 years to work on the game as they should have. A lot of the first half of the "3 year cycle" would be still stuck in DLC content work or assisting one of the other studios with a level or two, and so by the end of it, you were really lucky to get a year, or a year and a half tops to completely make/finish a AAA title that was expected to make billions. Add to that that Activision would often step in and veto or demand changes that the studio didn't really want to make, and you just end up with a meat grinder assembly line of COD games getting pumped out and becoming progressively more derivative. And as you mentioned earlier in the video, it's not even one main studio heading the game anymore... they have multiple studios working on separate elements and then frankensteining it together for the final product. TBH I'm glad I left when I did, lol.

Multiplayer was pretty fun, zombies was good, blackout was fun for a battle royale and the camos were amazing (especially diamond). That being said I also think vanguard is better than both MW and cold war purely from a multiplayer standpoint.

In earlier games you could spray into a crowd of zombies and get thousands of points and go hell yeah but now if you spray into a crowd of zombies you wouldn’t even have enough money to spin the mystery box. The entire economy is based on doing the objectives but they’re so mind numbingly bland that two of the objectives are just kill zombies and survive which was already the whole point of the game.
