It's like.. shockingly faster for me?

If I have to wait five whole minutes for fast food they're either slammed or they're having equipment problems. I can literally count on one hand the amount of times it's happened in the last few years.

Tbf, though, I don't eat fast food incredibly often. Maybe once a month.

People don’t vote because they see the system is rigged so the popular vote isn’t a great standard to go by either, it’s a product of the system as well

My area is such a strong republican district that my vote is functionally irrelevant aside from the president. Hell, they didn't even bother with democrat candidates on a local level.

The Halo 3: ODST OST is so good, man.

Hades, although I refuse to call it a “patient gamer” game

Why? It's 6 years old at this point so I think it qualifies.

Following Iron Lore Entertainment's failure to secure funding for its next project, former members of Iron Lore announced they had created a new company on February 18, 2008.

The first paragraph of their wiki page.

Yeah, that's been my experience. 99% of any drama coming out of Blahaj that I've seen was just that their admin banned a thing while being polite about it.

I deeply dislike Nintendo.

Some of them are related. Some of them aren't.

Black Ops and Modern Warfare are generally two separate series- the Modern Warfare games are all related.

Black Ops is a lot more complicated. Black Ops 2 is a direct sequel to Black Ops 1. Technically Black Ops 1 is sort of a sequel to World At War, as well. They share a major character, but it's kind of a minor thing and you won't be missing a ton.

Black Ops 3 has basically nothing to do with the rest- it takes place in 2065 and basically the only thing that links it to the previous games is a throwaway line related to a previous villain and some text logs.

Black Ops 4 didn't have a singleplayer campaign.

Black Ops 5 is Black Ops: Cold War, it is related to 1 & 2 but it's less of a direct continuation and more just the same characters are involved iirc.

Black Ops 6 follows up Cold War, but again is just the same characters.

Personally, I'd suggest doing World At War, Black Ops 1, Black Ops 2, Cold War, and then Black Ops 6 for the 'full experience.' If you wanna circle back around and do Black Ops 3, you can do that pretty much whenever because as I said it's unrelated. You can drop World At War if it doesn't interest you without any real issues. As I said, it just sets up a single character. Dropping any of the others you might actually be confused on plot and characters at points, idk.

Modern Warfare is a lot simpler. Just do them in order.

Things are fine as long as we're not on blahaj, then? Just clarifying.

If you mean singleplayer campaigns: as far back as you can stomach the graphics of.

If you actually want good campaigns, Black Ops 1 is fuckin legendary. World At War was also great. As is Modern Warfare (2007) and Modern Warfare 2(2009). Modern Warfare 3 (2011) was also good. Black Ops 2 was good. I wouldn't bother with any further Black Ops games- one of them doesn't even have a campaign iirc.

For the much much newer titles, Modern Warfare (2019) was good. Modern Warfare (2022) was also solid. Modern Warfare 3 is 'last years title' being referred to in the OP.

None of these are narrative masterpieces exactly- the closest is probably the Black Ops games. With that said, they're very much 'action movie' videogames. Tons of crazy set pieces, unique segments, and then the cutscenes that usually tie together a reasonable enough plot to be interesting.

If you mean multiplayer: honestly just jump into Black Ops 6. None of the older titles are likely to be a great experience at this point. Or just spend your time on a better game lol

and more political just in general, actually

Yeah, that's pretty much the only part of Lemmy I really don't like. It feels drastically more political than Reddit did. I didn't even know what the hell a tankie was before I joined Lemmy.
