I just realized when Cod fans say "Call of Duty is back" every year they don't mean Call of Duty finally made a good game. They mean Call of Duty is just back with another game
Sounds biased. The reason cod still top sales charts every year isn't because they're cod games, it's because they consistently release good games that do a good job of introducing newer players as well.
@@complimentbot7015 actually it's because of multiplayer. The games are alright lol but with the easy and massive multiplayer community mid games are always going to sell. People just want to play a game with their friends, even if that game is from a franchise well past its heyday.
@complimentbot7015 I'm not sure how you can call me biased off a comment like that to be honest. I really don't like to use the word projecting, but this time seems kind of reasonable
The trick is that COD consumers forgot what a good game is outside of COD (they don't have space for other games), so every new feature makes it A MASTERPIECE
Idk I feel like most of the people I know who still play COD either have mad critiques or are just huge fans of Zombies. For me the last one I bought was the new MW2 cause I heard the campaign was cool and I had a good time with it, wasn’t great or anything but I liked it. I got this one cause it’s on game pass and I’ve been having a good time with it, though I probably wouldn’t have bought it for full price. I like COD though, it’s a fairly reliable junk food type of game. They pretty much always deliver at least a 7/10 experience and occasionally there is a moment of brilliance in the campaigns or some cool new ideas in multiplayer.
The person you're talking about doesn't fucking exist. Every cod player cries and bitches about the game but they still play it because they're mentally ill individuals.
@@ggr.exactly. people act like cod is a 4/10 but its a pretty consistent 7/10 every year. ive never bought the games but i really enjoy them being on gamepass since i was gonna be subscribed anyway
Im pretty sure adding a grappling hook is a definite "jumping the shark" moment for video games at this point. Completely out of ideas? Lets add a grappling hook! Or jetpacks. Or sliding. Why try to make a good game when you can just add one button that does a movement thing and people will pay you 60 bucks for it.
Uncharted 4 is still the best uncharted (mechanically and otherwise) despite having a grappling hook Edit: maybe because of it actually. Idk maybe I'm a sucker for grappling hooks but I also like metroidvanias Videogamedunkey sings the grappling hook's praises, so at least I've got that 😂
I ended up playing Infinite Warfare after a friend recommended it to me last year. As the meme goes, it wasn't great, but not terrible either. Just a solid, good title that tried a few different things.
I've played a few but only ever bought BO4. The zombies were fun in that game. Never saw a reason to play another. I guess I also played a lot of Warzone for a season or two with my buds.
The only reason I even played the cod games is because my friend used to leave his PlayStation at my house because he didn’t want his nephews to destroy it. I literally never owned a cod game, I played them at Internet cafes and on friends accounts.
While watching this video, during the snow mission crashing section, my youtube also crashed at the same time........even when I'm not playing bo6, it still finds a way to crash on me
How the hell RennsReviews isn't a giant channel. Dude is funny AF and the production value is insane. I feel like I'm robbing someone watching this for free.
13:20 The mannequin section was instantly spoiled for me because I used to do the BO3 nuketown mannequin Easter egg. It’s 1:1 the same thing so the second I saw them in BO6 I immediately guessed what was going to happen. Feel a little salty unintentionally robbing myself out of what is probably a really terrifying twist to most people who didn’t know 😭
@@wickermind6668 It didn't but it's literally the exact same mechanics, same animations, down to the exact same movement and attacks it IS the same as it is straight ripped from BO3s nuketown
0:16 YOU GUYS buy it every year. Advanced Warfare was the last Cod game I bought until Modern Warfare 2019. Haven't bought any new Cod games since. I'm enjoying the Black Ops 1 and the original Modern Warfare games on Plutonium mod servers.
Good for you. You’re a speck in the wind though. There could be thousands just like you (and me) but we simply get cancelled out by the millions that just don’t mind
BO4 was pretty fun, but that was sadly the last Treyarch COD i'd consider a Black Ops. Played BO6 through gamepass and the MP is a sweat fest, unemployment lobbies only. The Zombies are pretty mid, the points system is bad and the boss spam is atrocious. The campaign was ok-ish, nothing special
Yeah cod and battlefield have both gone down hill compared to 10 years ago. Remember when they both were so good that they actually had a rivalry going on? Time to move on
Lol, I was expecting them to load an image on the display of the eye on the camera, but case point the lens directly into the scanner. I physically face palmed
i got the goopy goblin gamer brain, so i do enjoy just mindlessly playing the zombies or multiplayer, but i will say that the main thing that makes bo6 mid is the always online requirement. fucking zombies lagging in a single player game makes you not want to play REAL fast
I started my whole channel playing BO3, back then all I wanted to do was enjoy CoD and make some silly gameplays. I haven’t had a passion to make content based on this franchise in literal years but maybe I’ll think about picking it up. Thank you, Renn. Your reviews are more appreciated than you’d ever know !
I don’t want to say to not listen to negative reviews, because they are important, but I will say a lot of criticism is mainly from people who don’t want cod to innovate. As a cod fan since WaW, I have been really enjoying BO6 and it’s been much better than the more recent releases!
I hate that i have to give my money to activition every time they release a mediocre game, because is the only game i can get my uncultured swine friends to play with me....
They're not just scraping the bottom of the barrel, they are using different barrels and slap the COD name on it, next year it will have cozy game elements where you inherit a farm from Grandpa Woods.
Raven Software used to make some interesting fps games way back when, and they've been in CoD dev hell for over a decade now. I have no doubt they helped with some of the campaign, because some of these levels come off as the developers saying "we don't care anymore, put the zombies in the campaign". I don't understand why Treyarch hasn't just completely dove into making a zombie focused game when there's an entire sub-community that doesn't touch the multiplayer or campaign anymore.
@@alanazargushasb8557theres so many videos of people flying out of the maps in bo6 and there's literally hundreds of unused assets outside of the maps and other maps in them just to take up space till they decide to release them to you for more money
The "roguelite" section you mentioned... I don't think that was on purpose I was able to tac-sprint, tackle, and dive over and around the barrels. I ended up finishing the whole thing first try. So I feel like that just might be how it worked out for you but I'm not confident that they were actually going for that concept. I only even noticed the timer just as I got to the end.
Ngl I haven’t enjoyed a COD since BO3…and years later I’m glad to feel like a teen again absolutely addicted to BO6. It has its faults, but I’m really loving the hell out of this game.
Renn reviews are great he will say the funnest things and not linger on it for a second. "What they needed to do was to do was drive at you in a Gay line, you know zig and zag". 🤣🤣
Any of you who buy for campaign only and still buying for this series, y’all must hate yourselves if you’re okay with a single player game being taken away from you just because you don’t have a Wi-Fi connection. Anyone who used Game-Pass for the series from now on though are the real smart ones. If online only games without microtransactions were subscription based, so many problems would be resolved.
Throwing knives are one of the most ridiculous "stealth" kills in games. Like i get it, it's fun and can allow you to get creative (in better designed levels), but as if people would be falling down 100% silently and dying when they cop a knife to the shin lol.
If they are to include invading people's memories, then they should just go full sci-fi. Set it in the far future in an Old Man's War setting or something.
Seeing that horror level reminded me of Control and now I wonder what it'd be like if Activision leaned into that kind of stuff. It probably wouldn't be good, but it'd atleast be interesting.
I had a weird thing with the money. Xbox said there was an update for COD, and fine. But then I went into the game (I was at the 3rd mission), and saw that my money amount suddenly was in the millions. So I could buy all possible upgrades in one go, and still have loads left. So now I'm a very happy camper (well actually: not, since I am very hard to kill, and can kill very hard 😉).
I'd say that the "rougelite" section was more of like a deathloop/minit-esque metroidvania. Yeah, you are starting over like in typical rougelites, but It's very much follows that aspect of knowledge or items being what keeps you from progress. Plus, the items you got are put there specifically for the puzzle, and not something you unlock over the course of separate playthroughs.
Perfect TIMING REN, i was loving this campagin untill it took a MASSIVE downturn in quality, pacing and gameplay polish during the second half, i was absolutely so bored from the bullet sponge enemies to the back jarring back and fourth im so disapointed
So is the title just to see who actually watches the video and who doesn’t? Cause you seem to actually enjoy the game. You definitely caught on that the story is a mess, but it’s a really fun mess to play through. (Long aside: I always felt like the main character was a third wheel. Just kinda stood there listening to & watching the other characters do the important things while you get the kills. I was cracking up when the whole heist had you jumping character to character, and then the main guy you’ve been playing the whole game is just getting the shit beat out of him in some closet cause he was the fall guy.) Yeah you say you’re not into zombies or mp, but you also seem fair in not really weighing your overall opinion of the game on something you know isn’t for you. Your biggest complaint (even as you say), is that you had to dedicate two weeks to get through this game. I can see why that’s hell given the bugs and all (which I had near 0 of on gamepass pc. 1, maybe 2 crashes on a decently modern pc). But the yearly cod grind has been a complaint of many reviewers for a decade by now, so I can’t imagine that turns a “check this game out” to a “this is shit” lol.
surprisingly i have only experienced a single crash so far with BO6, my experience has been considerably more stable than on Black Ops 4, which was the last CoD i picked up and played for real before this one
@thientuongnguyen2564 why would i? Have you even read my comment? I said i haven't even played a CoD for real since Black Ops 4 (LITERALLY ALL i played from this franchise since BO4 were the Open Betas), and that was tragic at launch, especially on PC Now, if YOU are having problems with BO6 that's your problem, all i did was talk about MY experience, which has been considerably better than expected for a CoD release. Skill issue, sucks to suck i guess
only a minute in and this feels like Bill Nye: Video Game Edition....thats a good thing. WAIT A MINUTE YOURE THE STARFIELD GUY WHY WASNT I SUBSCRIBED YET?!
@20:40 if you playback at .25 speed you can see how the bullets that you fire at the helicopter home in towards the target regardless of where you're actually aiming. When the characters gun gets knocked to the left side of the screen and they're still shooting, you can see the bullets bend space and time and fire at 45 degree angles I also find it funny that you can steal 1k from the safehouse safe and then spend that money back on the safehouse...
I really love black ops 6 but I still appreciate and value your criticism of it. That being said, I was more than a little relieved to see the title was hyperbolic and you enjoyed it at least a little lol.
On a positive note, the cutscenes are gorgeous. Probably accounts for 90% of the budget at this point. If they just made animated movies/shows, I would definitely watch that. It's frustrating... every time a COD game has hints of something interesting, it's only a hint. They don't have the balls to fully lean into the realism angle, or the horror angle, or the sci-fi angle, or stealth, or open world, or roguelike... or any angle that would be halfway interesting and risky. So they just barely gesture at all of them. Then again, it's hard to blame them because COD players probably wouldn't want that shit anyway. They just want a polished and balanced multiplayer experience pretty much. I don't think they would be really supportive of something risky like a sci-fi/horror roguelike offshoot of COD, but I would love to see it. Once upon a time I might buy your game just because you released another one... but no more. Your game doesn't have to change the world for me to buy it, it just needs to have some kind of angle or identity, and an earnest attempt to explore it. Not just a gimmick and an earnest attempt to exploit it.

I can see why that’s hell given the bugs and all (which I had near 0 of on gamepass pc. 1, maybe 2 crashes on a decently modern pc). But the yearly cod grind has been a complaint of many reviewers for a decade by now, so I can’t imagine that turns a “check this game out” to a “this is shit” lol.
Giving support to RennsReviews because you are changing the title and thumbnail often so more people would watch your video.
16:13 My save files corrupted 2times !! Amazing game tbh
your vids are consistently such good quality
My man Renn knows Climax, much love dawg
finally got around to watching this, noticed the title changed at least 3 times lol
THAT MUSIC after the intro❤
As always, great video Renn
surprisingly i have only experienced a single crash so far with BO6, my experience has been considerably more stable than on Black Ops 4, which was the last CoD i picked up and played for real before this one
Do you say that every year when a new CoCK is released?
@thientuongnguyen2564 why would i? Have you even read my comment? I said i haven't even played a CoD for real since Black Ops 4 (LITERALLY ALL i played from this franchise since BO4 were the Open Betas), and that was tragic at launch, especially on PC
Now, if YOU are having problems with BO6 that's your problem, all i did was talk about MY experience, which has been considerably better than expected for a CoD release. Skill issue, sucks to suck i guess
I cannot believe that warby Parker sponsors our boy. This is like Valentino sponsoring fortnite Ninja 😂😂
Whenever a new CoD game comes out I am astounded by the fact that people apparently still pay for these.
only a minute in and this feels like Bill Nye: Video Game Edition....thats a good thing.
WAIT A MINUTE YOURE THE STARFIELD GUY WHY WASNT I SUBSCRIBED YET?!
The save file part was the true horror game.
Turns out Black Ops 6 is a horror game, though sometimes it's psychological and sometimes it's technological.
15:19 Welcome to Modern Gaming.
The battlefield music makes it so much better 😂
@20:40 if you playback at .25 speed you can see how the bullets that you fire at the helicopter home in towards the target regardless of where you're actually aiming. When the characters gun gets knocked to the left side of the screen and they're still shooting, you can see the bullets bend space and time and fire at 45 degree angles
I also find it funny that you can steal 1k from the safehouse safe and then spend that money back on the safehouse...
Hah, the Battlefield music at the end. XD
Renn, you don't need the glasses to look cool.
U should play a villain in a movie this orange fits u well
I really love black ops 6 but I still appreciate and value your criticism of it. That being said, I was more than a little relieved to see the title was hyperbolic and you enjoyed it at least a little lol.
The charli intro was awesome
On a positive note, the cutscenes are gorgeous. Probably accounts for 90% of the budget at this point. If they just made animated movies/shows, I would definitely watch that.
It's frustrating... every time a COD game has hints of something interesting, it's only a hint. They don't have the balls to fully lean into the realism angle, or the horror angle, or the sci-fi angle, or stealth, or open world, or roguelike... or any angle that would be halfway interesting and risky. So they just barely gesture at all of them.
Then again, it's hard to blame them because COD players probably wouldn't want that shit anyway. They just want a polished and balanced multiplayer experience pretty much. I don't think they would be really supportive of something risky like a sci-fi/horror roguelike offshoot of COD, but I would love to see it.
Once upon a time I might buy your game just because you released another one... but no more. Your game doesn't have to change the world for me to buy it, it just needs to have some kind of angle or identity, and an earnest attempt to explore it. Not just a gimmick and an earnest attempt to exploit it.
Hmmm change the title did we😂
nice (?) to see Dr. Who's Weeping Angels in a CoD game
You know the game is going to be defacated upon, when you see Renn dressed up and being a menace to the general public in a mall or something.
Our favorite little boy Renn has returned!
Your channel is so underrated
In 100 hrs on ultra graphics settings @120 fps and refresh rate, and no driver updates in months, I’ve crashed twice lmao
