I eventually came to enjoy it but it really isn't a whole lot like the others. It felt more like a 'beginners' version of the previous three games (4, 3, BC2). Not to say that it was easy to be good but that it was pretty limited in what you could get good at. I really miss the days of BC2 or BF3, playing for hours and doing crazy shit, then having some laughs watching Battlefield Friends videos.

Some of this is just being older now, but BF5 was lifeless and I did purchase 2042 (split with a friend), but played maybe 5 minutes before asking myself "what's the point?" and turning it off never having opened it back up again. I think COD and Battlefield fucking way over saturated the market, sucked all the life out of their games with monetization efforts, and totally turned me off on FPS games.
