Maybe back in the day it was a good propaganda tool, but these days Call of Duty looks and feels more like a paintball simulator than an actual war game lol

Yeah cause why would they want to spend that much money wowing the fan base every game when they can do the same thing with less work? It doesn’t need to look great anymore once you already have them eating out of your hand. It only has to look great whenever the fan base begins to lower.

My point is that yeah, I could see some kid wanting to join the military after booting up MW2, Black Ops 2, etc because of how hard they went and how cool they were.....

Black Ops 6 though? Game is a total clown show joke lol. Moronic skins aside, the guns don't even sound cool; it sounds like you're shooting paintballs. Anyone that wants to join the military because of Black Ops 6 probably wont even be able to pass the ASVAB. No one is going to get dabbed on by Butthead and go join the Marine Corps lol

Modern COD is more likely to allure people to join Airsoft and Paintball than the military nowadays
