    Black Ops 7…Is Call of Duty’s Campaign Dead? But Indie Games Are Eating Good.Black Ops 7…Is Call of Duty’s Campaign Dead? But Indie Games Are Eating Good.Episode Description:In this episode of The Single Player Experience, Sebastion breaks down what the hell happened to Call of Duty’s campaigns — and why Black Ops 7 might be the biggest misfire the franchise has had in years. We dig into the good, the bad, the bizarre, and the downright punishing design decisions that make this year’s campaign feel like a betrayal to solo players.Then, we take a sharp turn into GOOD gaming news — because two indie games, Megabonk and Ball x Pit, are doing more for fun, creativity, and pure replayability than most AAA games this fall. We talk about why Megabonk voluntarily withdrew from The Game Awards, why Ball x Pit might have the best roguelike upgrade system of the year, and why these smaller games are carrying the genre forward.Whether you’re angry about CoD or looking for your next indie obsession, this episode has everything you need.Welcome to The Single Player Experience Podcast — your home for all things single-player gaming!In each episode, we dive into the best narrative-driven adventures, hidden indie gems, and backlog battles that every gamer can relate to.✨ Join our Discord community for game discussions & backlog support → ⁠https://discord.gg/YeCwD6gtDv⁠ 🎧 Listen to full episodes of the podcast here → ⁠https://open.spotify.com/show/1OBh5lXcbSKI3VCTb2qaPO⁠Watch Full Episodes of the Podcast On Youtube: ⁠https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrruLWSRKIMHwhxIEV3z9lg/⁠ 📌 Follow for more gaming breakdowns, reviews, and backlog confessions.#SinglePlayerGames #GamingPodcast #BacklogChallenge #GameReview #GamerLife #PCGames #PS5Games #Xboxgames #Switchgames #videogames #podcast #gaming
