While I agree that in the end this is probably not good in the long run, I do hope they do something with the state of Call of Duty, activision has killed the franchise. Just look at the latest warzone / MW player count.

I used to enjoy playing with my friends. But the game is so broken.

I do think Phil Schiller is a good guy, let’s hope this doesn’t go sideways.

Maybe I’m being naive… only time will tell.

COD MWII is one of the franchises biggest selling titles, and Warzone is an absolute smash hit. What are you talking about? MWII is the second most played game on xbox live, behind only fortnite.
