According to Sony, about 1 million people exclusively play Call of Duty on their PlayStation. If you could choose only one game (franchise) to play on your computer or console, which one would it be?

I mean, the answer kinda just has to be something like Call of Duty to make sense. Think about how much evolution that series has gone through over the years, and how many components there are between campaign, multiplayer, Zombies, spec ops, battle royale, and most recently DMZ. It's probably the most variety you'd get from just one franchise.

There’s not much variety in terms of genre at that point 😔

I’d be looking at highly moddable games types—something like Gary’s Mod, maybe? I personally wouldn’t want to play an FPS forever. But I’m not sure what games these days have super strong mod communities that frequently genre-bend. Maybe something like GTA?

I don’t know how to categorise these types of players. If it were a board game or TTRPG, they would be casual players (e.g. the people who only heard of Monopoly), but the average playtime would make them hardcore gamers. It’s weird.
