  Anyone who still cares about CoD to the point where this is a concern is probably not an adult.

      Are they though? Children have very little autonomy and human rights. They’re essentially property of their parents.

    The sad thing was that CoD Mobile was the last decent game in the series. Just think about that for a moment: a freaking cell phone game is better than any CoD title to come out on actual gaming systems in practically a decade.

    I agree that it’s probably mostly children / teens that play those games, but I’m sure a non-insignificant portion of their player base is the type of person who is A-OK with listening to nothing but pop music.

    Nothing inherently wrong with that, but they are either afraid of trying something new or they aren’t interested in discovering what they may end up enjoying more than the same derivative time-wasters.

    CoD is mostly an adult game because it was popular with kids back 10-15 years ago

    It’s Minecraft and Fortnite that kids play

      Minecraft first released 15 years ago, call of duty modern warfare was 17 years ago.

      The “games that kids play” very rapidly becomes “games that adults play”
