It's even worse. The whole journalistic side of it is just a giant paid ad over and over again. There's no real critique of games being done by these outlets that pretend to do it. It sucks seeing the whole medium being treated as just a product and never as art.
Yeah I dont understand how games journalism is so bad specifically. It's so infuriating trying to find out about something only for an article to waffle on about nothing for 5 pages
