BLOPS 7 is one of the worst Call of Duty games to date, with a bland slog of a campaign, an endgame mode that feels like an afterthought.

Black Ops 7 is a major step down, with a directionless co-op campaign, bland multiplayer, and a weak Zombies mode that misunderstands what makes the series fun.

The world is full of reasons to be afraid right now and finding a place to take care of your mental health is key. For some, it's World of Warcraft.
