Whats all the fuss about?

I just got BO7 yesterday and have been playing it all day multiplayer and zombies and having an absolute blast. This isnt the dumpster fire that all these people and youtubers online were making it out to be. Ive been playing COD since 2005 and took a break after MWII (2022) because i wasnt that crazy about the game and didnt really want to play a modern warfare 2 years in a row so i just decided to get into other games for a few years. But man ive been playing COD for 20 years and this one is one of those good ones! Ive heard even from the biggest fans that the campaign is genuinely pretty bad so im not even gonna bother playing. And all that talk online about “cod is dying” “Bo7 all time low sales and player numbers” had me thinking like dang this one must be awful and COD is losing relevance. But looking deeper into it, Cod is like consistently top 1-4 most played games on console rotating with games like Fortnite Roblox and Minecraft. For a game thats “out of its prime and completely dead” i’d say thats pretty impressive😂 also people look at these steam numbers as an indicator that no one plays COD and everyone was playing battlefield but that ended up just not being true, 60% of Battlefields playerbase is on steam. Probably less than 5% of COD’s playerbase is on steam. A lot of PC players probably want to get it on gamepass I have to assume.

I know i did a lot of rambling but to summarize, the narratives (for the most part) are wrong around this game and its really fun. And the people saying the game is dead and no one plays it are just straight up lying.
