Well, first I'll ask you, what was your stance going into Black Ops 7? Did you believe we needed a skin filter or just completely remove carry forward the way that MW3 did it? What did you think initially?

Yeah, so just to kind of back it up a little bit, if you look at the Modern Warfare 2 into Modern Warfare 3 carry forward, I feel like at that point in time for those games, it completely made sense for a number of reasons.

The first, and I think the most obvious, is that they're both Modern Warfare games taking place in the exact same time period and era.

So carrying forward content from game to game doesn't disrupt or break the identity of the next game.

The other thing, too, is that Modern Warfare 2 also heavily struggled with being a liked game.

You know, like, so it kind of made sense to just take the content from the game and put it into a game that, you know, where Sledgehammer Games is listening to community feedback and improving significantly.

So if you look back at that situation...

I don't know what's happening here.
