    I do…and many others do too if the game itself wasn’t such a pile of shit forcing you online because ‘its where the fun is’… I love campaigns in shooters. online play is trash unless I can play with ONLY my friends. it’s one of the main reasons I stopped paying for the garbage that they keep producing and don’t consider these companies at entertainment more then I would scraping dog shit off my shoes

          Point to me one AAA studio that doesn’t have those. If you want to be 100% ethical you should only buy indie games, and I honestly don’t fault anyone for doing so. I just buy whatever game I find good. Unless the company is literally funding nazis, LGBTQ+ phobia (like Hogwarts Legacy), or war crimes (like Escape from Tarkov, and I also did not buy BO7 until Microsoft pulled out of giving money to Israel), if the game is good in the area I care about, I will buy it.

        I don’t think there are any single player military shooters anymore… at least not that come to mind. I think COD drove them all out of business… Phase 1 of Enshittification.

          I can point to you several other games, many of them shooters, that are singleplayer. Like, you have the three modern DOOM games and ULTRAKILL just as an example.

            By the same argument, why not just play last year’s CoD? It’s not really fun playing the same campaign over and over unless you’re a speedrunner or something. I want new single player experience, just like I want new TV shows and movies. I don’t have time to stay competitive in any online multiplayer games, and it seems like the only ones making single player games anymore are indie devs.

              I mean I did play the BO6 campaign and quite liked it. And like. There’s hundreds of those games out there you might not have played before?

            Operation Harsh Doorstop is good for a military shooter, of which I’ve played in the past. It’s free to play too if I’m not mistaken (and the modding scene for it is quite fantastic as well).

          There are many single player scenarios for arma. On top of the ones that are in the game.

          It’s still a decent game.

      You should probably stop giving money to them then. Stop buying Call of Duty games. You’re just funding anti-consumer practices.

        lol, I don’t. I won’t even pirate AAA games (I always buy if I enjoy them). not worth the time because they aren’t fun.
