Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III
Windows version
Mindless chaos
The Good
Game looks nice and the stealth start was kind of fun, although very on-rails.
The Bad
The chaotic firefights in the Modern Warfare series always rubbed me the wrong way and this game is no exception.
The Bottom Line
I'm not a big Modern Warfare fan. I played the campaign of the first two and thought it was OK. Skipping many iterations I figured I'd give this one a try as it was on GamePass. The first mission was kind of OK until it becomes a massive firefight, which was exactly the moment which were the major turn-offs for me in the previous games. Then the second mission it's clear there's more stealth and choice on how to approach things, compared to the old games. But the dozens of weapons and tools are just a distraction and are all introduced at once giving no proper introduction to any of them. Maybe I'm supposed to be familiar with them from the games in the series I skipped? In the end it just quickly evolves into mindless chaos. I didn't bother continuing after this. Not my kind of game.
