The merger will bring more shitty behavior I GUARANTEE IT.
Anyone play MW2 or MW3? They are extreme pieces of garbage. Not sellable. They put that trash out anyway. That would be a massive class action lawsuit if the players weren’t weak degenerates. The fact that they buy garbage shouldn’t be an argument for putting more trash out.
It’s so bad. So so so bad.
See, normally I would agree with you, but Activision/Blizzard was so uniquely terrible that it literally cannot get worse.
Call of Duty has been truly ass well before these new hot steaming piles.
I think of it this way. I never have to spend money on another one of those shitty games in my life.
The serious gamer market isn’t the target audience for CoD. They’re aiming for kids and the adults who play 20 minutes a day and call it good. The game is perfectly fine for those players. Anyone who wants to play at anything more than a couch casual level isn’t the audience the game is made for. Do I think they’re terrible games? Yes, but that doesn’t mean they’re not filling the exact market niche they’re aiming for.
