What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
Playing custom maps and older zombies maps with your buddies is still quite fun, and while multiplayer is not my favorite, It is still enjoyable and can be played without going through microtransaction or quest completetion hell.
It’s endless replayability, and that’s not an exaggeration.
It actually runs beautifully on Proton not flawless though, depending on proton versions I'd get issues like Der Eisendrache's Easter egg where the sphere in the cutscene would cause my framerate to tank to sub 30, which would be liveable if it wasn't for the issue to be in gameplay too.
With graphics that hold up to this day, a replay value that has proven itself over a decade, and an extremely tight-knit community, Black Ops III is a truly extraordinary game.
It offers fun, challenging gameplay, memorable maps like Shadows of Evil and Der Eisendrache, and plenty of replay value with Easter eggs, weapon upgrades, and co-op action.
