The company’s games sadly feel tainted now ( especially as new accusations surface almost daily), and some have even called for a boycott altogether (which we’re supporting in solidarity).Īll of this is to say that I’ve been looking for a new multiplayer experience to fill the void. However, we’ve stopped playing the past couple of weeks following numerous allegations of widespread sexual harassment and other forms of abuse at Call of Duty publisher Activision Blizzard. As COVID-19 restrictions lifted and vaccinations were received, online friends even became IRL ones. We got into a pretty consistent routine of jumping into Warzone or Cold War for some reliably fun multiplayer action. For the past year, Wednesday and/or Saturday nights have been all about Call of Duty for my friends and me.
