During Covid-19 quarantine, all highly populated public places were closed. (theaters, arcades, etc.) We were all confined to stuff to do in our houses and one thing that was done a lot was playing video games. I played a lot of video games, specifically COD Modern Warfare, which was of the biggest games during quarantine. This is important to me because it was something that kept me same during the pandemic.
