I'm glad I stopped after bo2 came out and only returned for a year mw2019 came out. It was a very good refresher. But after Warzone came out, COD became COD again.
Oh, man. Another tiny channel with a dozen hour long video essays to watch through. Thanks for uploading! I'm only ~10 minutes through, but this is an interesting recap. I don't recall Modern Warfare 3 being even slightly controversial at the time, but iirc I was too busy with Skyrim to care too much around it's launch.
this was my first "modern warfear" before this I had only played World At War and Black Ops. I really liked this game, I guess it helped as I didn't have the problem of this feeling like MW2, as I had never played it.
It's not every single game. Only the bad ones. Nobody talks shit about MW1, WaW, MW2, BO1 or BO2 because they were good. People shit on games like Ghosts or Infinite Warfare because they're shit. Some of them are just mediocre, like MW3. If you can't understand why bad products are criticized then I don't know what to tell you.
@@VikingKong. they release the same game every year with minor movement differences aside from the jetpacks which were arguably pretty fun. the og modern warfare and black ops games get no hate because most of the playerbase grew up on them it's nostalgic and that's when the community was at its peak. even the modern warfare 2 remaster got a ton of hate despite literally being the boots on the ground fps that everyone wanted. it's not the younger generation complaining about any of these games it's the millennials and gen z that grew up playing mw2 and the og black ops. no different than ur grandpa talking about the "good old days" and complaining about anything new going on
lots of modern cod fans don't understand how much of a shitshow mw2 into 3 was I can distinctly remember none of my homies wanted to play mw3 as they all (rightfully) felt it was just a weaker mw2 which in and of itself is funny cuz mw2 was a literally unfinished game 😂
My issue with MW3 was the lack of grounding. Don’t get me wrong, Blops 1 and MW2 had more than their fair share of Michael Bay moments, but MW3 was really when not only did it begin to feel overdone, but it was outstaying its welcome. Every mission seemed to involved a scripted scene with you running through a collapsing building, and every mission felt like it involved destruction of a major world monument. It was just old. Even MW2 at least had the mission on a realistic feeling FOB in Afghanistan. MW3 just didn’t feel believable to me at any point. As for the multiplayer, it really felt exactly the same as MW2.

Nope. COD became fortnite after Warzone came out. Warzone sucks ass, and is nothing like original COD.
I had to drop $110 on Ghosts and the season pass before I had the sense to stop 😢
What are you actually saying

Thank you for the kind words:)

Good video essay, 10/10 and descriptive.
@@MrClauws thank you!
i'll never understand the insane amounts of complaining from the cod community about every single game they release no matter what the devs do

Felt the same way about Ghosts
@@tylergarrett4498 tbh yeah. I thought Ghosts had a lot of great ideas but the execution was atrocious.
People still buy these fucking games? Shit hasn’t been good since MW2 and BO1.
