I'm Thoroughly Enjoying Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare

While free time dedicated solely to getting fully immersed in vibrant, enthralling digital worlds is getting harder and harder to come by, I still make time for the worthiest of games. Red Dead Redemption 2 was the most recent release that pulled me in for hours and hours of gameplay, and after months of anticipation, I’m glad to finally say that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019) is doing the exact same thing.

The single-player campaign, so far, is better than a lot of movies that get released. Its cinematic cutscenes, intriguing missions, and disturbing realistic depictions of war make it hard to put the controller down even after hours of play. I’ve heard that the ending of the story does not disappoint, so I’ll be eagerly and steadily making my way through the storyline. That is if I can put down the multiplayer…

It’s so good. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and the Black Ops series consumed many of my teenage hours. The multiplayer game modes never over-stayed their welcome, and the grind was always worth it in attempts to level up, boost my K/D, and get as many red tiger camouflages as possible. Modern Warfare feels like Call of Duty 4 (which had the same name) in its simplistic gameplay, but an array of variances, unlocks, and game modes makes me think the multiplayer appeal will last for this installment from one of the world’s most popular series.

If only there were zombies (and not so much camping online), this might be in contention for my favorite Call of Duty game of them all. I’m hoping that once the honeymoon phase is over, I continue to come back and grind the multiplayer and play with some friends. It’s nice to finally have another game I keep running back to.
