when this series was rebooted 4 years ago, despite how shallow of an attempt it was, there felt like a genuine effort to modernise it; change and adapt it to a new generation.

could have not have foreseen how far into the depths it would eventually sink, in terms of content, but also just the broad James Bond storytelling and actual game design.

the original Modern Warfare 3 was a really shallow game that tried to implore you to care about Price's personal vendetta with this Makarov figure. it was stupid and trying way too hard. at least the rest of the game, despite obviously dumb it was, was still a pretty well put together string of globetrotting CoD levels.

this is is the same shit but with loosely put together Warzone maps posing for a single player campaign. the ONE thing you could always count Call of Duty for was a pretty spectacularly string of well thought out corridor levels. even at its worst it was still trying to be a $1m idea wrapped a 5cent story.

Modern Warfare III can't even be bothered with that. it's so thoroughly disappointing on just that level that rest is worthless to even talk about. this is easily the most sorry-ass entry in the series. At least Black Ops 4 had the gumption to forgo a half-ass campaign all together. this is pathetic. like watching a clown piss themselves.
