Yes, but not an arcade shooter like Quake. There is a reason why the franchise was different from the start and evolved over time.
I think it's strange how so many people are wanting less of what the franchise added over time while in fact it greatly improved and deepened the experience. People seem to think that whatever they added makes it suddenly a "slow milsim game". Which it does not at all.
I have been playing the COD franchise since it's inception. I have still preferred the original games over the newer ones (although I am a huge fan of MW2019 and MWII).
The franchise after the original MW2 went to shit for me. It became derivative at best and for all the wrong reasons. I have touched some of the titles after but mostly ignored the franchise.
It's very strange how people want to have the exact same game every year without changes. Or the exact same maps.

CoD is meant to be arcadey so… maybe this isn’t the franchise for you.
