Summary
Every year, Activision vows to giveCall of Dutyplayers realism on the battlefield. Every year, money talks and it becomes more and more like Fortnite.
Over the last few years, games likeWarzoneandModern Warfare 3have featured skins ofWWE Athletes,The Boys TVcharacters,horror icons, and, of course, Nicki Minaj. In this year’s entry,Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, things have shown no signs of slowing down, with shark and raccoon skins, punctuated byannoying kill animations, joining the fray.
But, although the cosmetics were already pretty bad after the first month, a new finishing move takes the cake, upsetting the audience like never before.
The “Unicorn Fart” Finishing Move Unites Black Ops 6 Fans In Anger
Over the weekend,it was revealedthat Call of Duty would be adding a new finishing move to Black Ops 6. The move sees the player spawn in a unicorn, lift its bright pink tail, and watch as its fart annihilates the other player. It’s peak stupidity that even the most child-minded of players won’t find funny and seemingly only serves to annoy the opposition. Of course, it wasn’t received well.
The finishing move was quickly picked up on the Black Ops 6subreddit, withIntelligent_Choice91 saying, “I know Call of Duty was never realistic, but I’d like my game to be about a soldier actually looking like a soldier and not shark heads and unicorns.”
Xavierthebavier added, “Just 100% shameless capitalism and 0% artistic integrity at play here for all the idiots to spend their money on. It’s gross, embarrassing, and sad,” a sentiment that was echoed by many.
Just 100% shameless capitalism and 0% artistic integrity at play here…
While the Unicorn Fart move had one or two defenders on Reddit, citing the fact that Call of Duty has always been a bit “quirky”,one userpointed out, “They didn’t go this crazy this fast on the last ones; it usually took a few seasons for them to transition from the more grounded stuff.”
The Call of Duty community, like most others in gaming, loves a moan, but it’s very rare to see them so universally united over an issue as they have been with this one.
