Do Twitch Drops Ruin Tarkov?
(Intro) It’s been about fifty days since Tarkov went 1.0. And since then, we’ve had a lot of opportunities to acquire free gear and items from all the different Twitch drop events that have occurred since the last wipe. Anyone who engages with this system benefits from it; players and viewers of Tarkov content on Twitch get to earn some free stuff by just watching, and those who are steaming the game benefit from lots of people tuning into their streams and hanging out. And while the drops this go around have been a little more substantial than they have been previously, a thought popped into my head about a week into the event. Free gear is cool, but does it ruin the experience of playing through Tarkov? And what I mean more specifically, there is obviously a specific progression curve built into the game. You do quests, level up and earn more powerful stuff at the traders the deeper you get into the game. But all of that kind of goes out the window when you open a box, and it has a full kit with powerful ammo ready to be thrown on and used. Most people are probably completely fine with the drops, and I can understand why. However, with the most recent wipe being the literal 1.0 release, have drops for Tarkov ruined that experience for everyone, especially players jumping into the game for the first time?

The Night the Gym Felt Like Church
I didn’t go for the basketball. I went because my nephew asked me to. He’s thirteen, wears his hair in messy curls, and talks about the game like it’s a secret language only he and the ball understand. “You have to see how they move together, Uncle,” he’d said, eyes wide. “It’s like they’re speaking without words.”

The Tragic Decline of Call of Duty
Introduction At the time of my writing this, I have only just finished playing a little bit of the campaign in Battlefield 6. I broadcasted this gameplay in a live stream on Twitch, where I create guides for how to achieve the platinum trophies for the games I play. What is important to note here is that I made the conscious and unconscious decision to play the most recent Battlefield title over the latest version of Call of Duty. I still can’t believe that I’m writing these words. Never in a million years could I have fathomed that I would prefer to play a game developed by Battlefield Studios over a military game made by Activision and Infinity Ward. If I could tell you anything about me, it’s the fact that I have been loyal to the Call of Duty franchise since the first game came out for the PC, on October 29th, 2003. Even in it’s infancy, Call of Duty had emerged as a military game that could rival the likes of games like Medal of Honor, which were considered the apex of combat style first person shooters at the time. That seems like a lifetime ago. I’m still loyal to the game that has created so many great memories for me, but I will admit that the game has lost a considerable part of its appeal. Playing it just doesn’t feel the same anymore. This is a thought shared throughout the gaming community, and it is reflected in the fact that, as of present, Battlefield 6 boasts itself not only as the number one first person shooter on a global level, but also as the number one selling game of 2025, while Call of Duty Black Ops 7 ranks in at seventh place. These figures unquestionably illustrate the tragic decline of the video game Call of Duty. Now there are many factors that have resulted in this games fall from grace, all of which we will explore in great detail, but first some context is needed. In order that we may fully understand exactly how far this giant has fallen, it is crucial that the history of Call of Duty at it’s peak is provided.

The Main Reasons Call Of Duty is Dying
(Intro) Call of Duty is not only one of the largest first-person shooters out there across all platforms, for many including myself, it was substantially impactful on my younger years growing up and playing online games with my friends and with others around the world. From the legendary Call of Duty 4 and Modern Warfare 2 games, to World at War and the first couple of black ops games, this franchise is important to so many people, and it’s not a surprise to say that the last half decades’ worth of Call of Duty experiences haven’t really hit the mark. But why? What has happened to Call of Duty that has created such a negative connotation when you even just mention the franchise out loud? There are a LOT of reasons that can be pointed to and called the culprit to the downfall of this franchise, but today, I wanted to look at some potential reasons that are maybe just a little more below the surface. I’m not going to breaking any new ground or coming up with some revolutionary reasons that haven’t already been addressed, but I think if we put aside the obvious answers for a moment and look at Call of Duty across all of the more modern titles, and compare the older titles, we can come to some interesting conclusions that maybe people have either forgotten or simply didn’t think about in this context. So, let’s have a conversation about Call of Duty; the rise and fall of this series and what is truly preventing it from making a triumphant return that enjoyers of this series would love to see come back into their regular gaming rotation.

The Night the Future Felt Like Hope
I didn’t go to the store for inspiration. I went because I was out of coffee. It was a Tuesday in early March—gray, damp, the kind of morning that clings to your shoulders like a wet coat. I hadn’t slept. My mind was a tangle of unread messages, overdue bills, and the low hum of dread that had become my baseline. The grocery store was just a pit stop on the way to another day I wasn’t sure I could face.

The Night the Arena Felt Like a Time Machine. AI-Generated.
I didn’t go to the library for answers. I went because it was the only place where silence wasn’t judged. It was the winter after my divorce. My apartment felt too loud with absence—echoes in the hallway, empty chairs at the table, the hum of a refrigerator that used to be background noise but now sounded like loneliness amplified. So every Tuesday at 2 p.m., I walked the three blocks to the public library, took the same seat by the window, and opened a book I never read.

The Porch Light That Stayed On
I didn’t notice the porch light at first. It was just another fixture on a quiet street lined with oak trees and tired mailboxes. But every night at 9 p.m., without fail, it clicked on—even in rain, even in summer heat, even when no one was home.
