Compared to Infinite Warfare and Ghosts, Vanguard accounted for 53 percent of all the votes, thus making it the worst COD ever. All things considered, this result shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone. That’s because the game from Sledgehammer has mostly attracted negative reactions, during its lifecycle.
Probably the main reason for Vanguard receiving so much criticism is due to its setting. Not many fans liked it when it was revealed to have its story set during the era of World War. People wanted a modern take, but it wasn’t the case at all. Moreover, the experience it offered to the players wasn’t amazing either.
