User blog comment:AndImBatman/Why Call of Duty: Ghosts does not deserve it's unwarranted hatred/@comment-25496444-20131106213134

I read this in Michael Jones' voice, it's pretty fitting.

Anyway, while I agree to most of your points, for as far as I know that is (I haven't played the game yet, just seen a part of the campaign and a couple multiplayer matches and I'm probably not gonna buy it), it's really no use trying to combat all the unnecessary hate CoD gets. You don't have to go past two metaphorical inches on the internet and see someone bashing on CoD for the stupidest (as well as most likely hypocritical, moot, untrue and over-exaggerated) reasons, and in the worst case get other people to agree with it usually by the means of comment rating (just take a look at this and this), all because it's the game everyone loves to hate. Usually when I try to defend it from all the hate I get shitted on and probably called a "CoD fanboy" as well. And this isn't limited to the fanboys and elitists of the "rival" series of each time (be it Halo or Battlefield), it's from every gamer in the six galaxies and I bet a big chunk of them have never even played or seen CoD footage, they're just heard from their friends that "CoD sucks, agree with me". So usually I just tend to ignore them, the rule "don't feed the trolls" applies to them as well (even if they aren't exactly trolls), getting mad at them just encourages them. Fortunately because of the nature of the internet, they can rarely be any actual trouble besides an annoyance.
