Why the fuck do there need to be so many call of duty games when they've been the fucking same for a decade now

Because the playerbase moves to the latest game on release and the multiplayer of the older games stops being fun because it's exclusively tryhards.

They've made them for years, amd now with recruiting at it's lowest level in years, they certainly aren't going to stop now.

They discovered the magic of free live service games, so they’re continuing to update Warzone which takes in billions (I think), and use the profits to create a single player campaign and a short lived paid multiplayer mode that will take in an additional billion while funneling those players back to Warzone, which is their bread and butter., once the latest COD fad dies down within 6 months
