More people hating Call of Duty would be welcome, to me, because I can't stand people bringing it up, either... but in a different way. I can't stand it being constantly talked about as though it were the holy grail of gaming, in my school, every day. I'm tired of the whole FPS fetish the video game genre has been stuck in for... a decade, now? Truly, I can't stand it. I hate shooters, yet they get the spotlight. They come with little to no substance (with multiplayer seemingly meant to be the only actual game mode), have very little difference between them, and over-saturate the market... and Call of Duty is the most overrated of the lot... but I just don't see the appeal in the genre, as whole. They come out with a rehash of the same game every year and people gobble it up. I don't dislike the people who play them, but I can't stand this game series and the undeserved (in my opinion, of course) following it gets. When will it end (and I'm a person who does not play these games)? :wallbash:
Please forgive that burst of hatred, but I have to say it somewhere and those are my thoughts on the matter that strays to a personal dislike of a genre I don't care about because it has many new titles I don't care about, at all, dwarfing the number of new releases from a genre I do care about.
