Another repellant, dogwhistle & dipshit campaign that plays wonderfully. Like a flute carved from a stinky tree. Everyone should be very ashamed, but I hope they were paid well.
Then, the star - the multiplayer! Just kidding, there's fewer maps than ever before, and some are absolutely miserable to play. A great map should be playable forever, and a good map should be playable for a long while, and a decent map should be playable for, like, a month. At least three of these are bad maps, which lose their luster immediately.
The mechanics & gunplay & flow of leveling are wonderful, though - the best of the series, excepting MW2019.
But the real star is WARZONE, the free-to-play mode battle royale! Just kidding, it sorta sucks too. You're going to get rocked by streamer tryhards, everytime.
Ok ok, no, the REAL STAR here is the Tarkov-like, DMZ, where you drop as a 3-man, and there's some persistence & quests & leveling, and extracting! Which is fun! But it's underbaked. This is honestly the star.
But I want the MP to be good - that's why I'm OK with spending the big bucks. I played a stupid amount of this game, despite my moral disdain for it's whole fucking thing - the tone, the story, the setting, the culture, the meta-culture, all of it dogshit and awful and the fuel of school shooters and MAGA bootlickers.
But boy, it was kinda nice to realize, "I'm very good at this game," and shoot for a hundred hours or two. Now, I'm done.
