Damn you know, this might just be my favorite out of the more recent CODs I've played (so far). The quality of the gameplay really hasn't changed much since AW, however I have to say this was the first campaign in a while that I actually cared about the characters and what was happening to them. I mean, jesus literally about 99% of the cast of Infinity Warfare died in the end and the grand summation of my reaction to that was a resounding "meh". Here I was actually invested in seeing these characters through to the end, and while I have to say I wasn't too affected when Turner ate it (the "commanding officer dying" trope is deader than the officers themselves), I was not prepared to lose Zus as well and was honestly just as relieved as the characters to find him in the end. That's good storytelling.

Also quick note, I remember a bunch of SJW hate piling on this game when it came out about it "sanitizing history" and bunch of PC bullshit......unsurprisingly I have no idea what any of those fucking idiots are talking about. Do they mean the part when you play as a woman in the french resistance? Because on of your allies in COD 3 was a woman in the french resistance, and in Finest Hour for a couple mission you are literally a spotter for a conscripted soviet sniper who is also a woman. So if anything there's actually precedent for that, so I ask again, what was their big issue with this?
