New episode of Splash Damage just dropped, and this time we're looking at the latest installment in the long line of Call of Duty shooters - and the usual bullshit from the usual sources over what should be a bunch of non-issues. From the original post over at half-KIA:
Call of Duty: Vanguard has gotten flack this past week, and not just for being another totally boring cash grab of a shooter. Kotaku and others called the game Islamophobic for daring to use pages of the Quran as set dressing, despite the fact entire games openly mock Christianity without so much as a complaint from anyone. We discuss this hypocrisy along with Kotaku’s ironic complaint that Vanguard is too woke, Animal Crossing: New Horizons fans’ bizarre and desperate desire to see two animal characters officially become gay lovers, GamesBeat’s surprising advocation for diversity of thought in the games industry, and more.
Listen here, or find the episode on your favorite podcasting app. Thanks for listening! I get pretty fired up in this one...

I'm skipping Warzone for a year, probably (unless they get hot chicks, like Mara), just like I skipped 2 seasons when they were promoting BLM just as the riots were happening.
I only ever paid them for 500 coins at the start and this isn't going to change ever.
Also when I came back after they finally ceased their BLM crap I was playing the cop characters lol
Cat Mara is best skin
