I actually think BO7 is the best COD we've had on the new engine (since MW 2019). Tac sprint is only accessed by sacrificing a perk (so its rarely used), there's no doors, lobbies don't disband after every match, the maps and weapons actually feel good again (finally), and the universal camos unlocked from weapon prestiges are a really nice addition (especially since a lot of them are BO2 camos). I feel as though BO7 is just a modernized recreation of BO2 in many ways. I'll still always prefer COD's golden era (COD4, WaW, MW2, BO1/2), and I think Activision is missing out on easy money by not remastering them, but this is the first COD in a while I actually enjoy.

Now that it has Fujimi Kaido and the Nürburgring Nordschleife, I'd say its worth buying. Fujimi is gorgeous and the Nordschleife is quite well done too. The weather/time options are nice, and overall the game runs smoothly on ultrawide (3440x1440) with an RTX 3080. Otherwise, its pretty generic Forza Motorsport, not spectacular in any way really, but the 2 tracks I mentioned do a lot of heavy lifting, for me at least.
