Reviewers actually leisurely completing the game and giving a good thoughtful review is possible, there's people on the internet who do it. But the bulk of game journalists can't do it because their only value is in being FIRST and nobody is going to go to IGN or whatever other faggot site to read what they say about a game later because it's garbage. People will check their review scores and maybe read some of the summaries but unless the journalist cultivates their own personality so you want to know what the person is saying about a game, nobody gives a shit about your review.

Again, there's people like this, Tom Chick and Jeff Gerstmann are a couple "famous" names, Dunkey basically does the same thing, etc. But this isn't asking for "respect" for game journalists, it's asking for a fundamental reworking of the entire model to speak to a different audience when there's people who clearly value the FIRST DAY reviews so those will always exist.

Just for clarification, these posts are about Starfield and the journalists have like 3 weeks to play it before it comes out.

Likely troon autist complains about “Bro culture” in a 20 year old IGN review.

Ethics in Journalism is important now!
Funny enough they are accusing a games journalist of being a pedo. Can’t say they don’t have a point there.

You know they are true consoomers when they go bat for the most blatant bottom-of-the-barrel slop, thrown to bargain bins so confused parents buy that shit for their kids in the hopes that they might like a random celebrity game that nobody asked for.

Also you know they are true lunatics when they spell folks folx.

it looks exactly as bad as the cowboy bebop one did, which is fucking abysmal. I really don't understand why they are championing this one while hating the other.

I guess because (from what I hear) it follows the source material closer and didn't have an actress going on Twitter and calling all the fans idiot incels. So even if it doesn't look good, it still has a few points in its favor.

the only way to go beneath the bar the cowboy bebop set is burrow into the earth like a mole creature.

I'd make a joke about how you could convince these idiots of anything being "alt-right" and get them to demand people stop doing it but like we already did all this with the OK sign which I'm pretty sure I saw them argue a couple weeks ago about how they know it was a hoax but now it's "alt-right coded" or some shit.

The satanic abuse believers were more skeptical than these people.

The only thing that is unassailable is their belief in corporate branding
People tried using things like calling people googles, skypes and skittles to see if those could be branded alt-right but it seems they'll give up on everything BUT big company names
