      Meanwhile if CS players have ANYTHING change in the game they throw a fit… “innovation” does not enhance FPS franchises, it breaks them.

          Well yeah but the same thing applies regardless. Every time CoD tried to “innovate”, outside of Black Ops 2, resulted in players complaining endlessly and/or poor sales. And I say this as someone who HATES milsim obsessed manchildren who demand every FPS franchise cater to them, despite most of them already doing it. Those mfs will straight up say anything futuristic “looks like a mobile game” as if we can’t look past their buzzwords. I blame their bullshit for the failure of Titanfall 2 and CoD Infinite Warfare, which did have an EXCELLENT campaign. But, regardless of that: FPS players don’t want their favorite game to change too much in terms of raw gameplay. This has been a thing you can observe for decades. Hell, people still play Dust 2 the almost exact same way as in 2001.
