GAME JOURNALISM NOT BAD

I had to stop at the kotaku part faggot

This shit is hard to watch

Bend over.

cringe

He isn't a person, he's a pure distillation of Reddit. Right now every fucking basic faggot on /r/gaming or whatever is feeling enlightened for having watched SuperRedditHop's video.

Imagine thinking rephrasing and summarizing press releases and blogging your opinions is journalism.
Why do gamers do this? Moviers and bookers don't conflate coverage of their hobby with journalism so why do you all do it and get so worked up about it?

he say 4 chan in the intro

>guys please don't laugh at my medium videogames are art
>look at muh deep stories and cool cutscenes entirely separate from the only unique element of games which so gameplay
>no please movies and books aren't superior in both of these aspects
lmao what a fucking joke of a profession.

>think an article is bullshit?
>research the topic yourself
>and shut the fuck up because freedom of the press
The only two types of articles i want to read, and that goes for any kind of news, is dry as sawdust reporting of the facts-facts-facts and long in depth investigative pieces that took months of research and had to get run by legal a dozen times. Unless i directly ask for a writers opinion on ANY subject i don't want to hear it and i don't want to read it. Especially not disguised or mixed in with a news topic i might be interested in.

used to be subscribed back when it was about videogames. glad to know i unsubscribed on time.

Game journalists want to be real journalists so desperately its sad. When will they realize that they piles of dogshit aspiring to be piles of horseshit.

They keep latching on to issues going "SEE WE ARE REAL JOURNALISTS TOO" but nobody takes "Real journalists" seriously either anymore either and all its doing is resulting in people ignoring them.

>gas a green screen backdrop
>doesn't use it
I hate people who do this shit. Why even have it?

I mean if you want to shitpost you could honestly just make up whatever point is at the end video at this point.
I'm a fan of George but have only just made it to the end and I'm not going to spoil your fun by telling you what it actually is.

Why is this man dressed like a gay detective?

Who cares

At the start of the video he called everyone on Yea Forums 16 year old children

I'll never know because I can't get an honest tldr on Yea Forums and I'm not going to waste an hour of my time watching a fucking video on gaming journalism.

Here's the only game journalism video you need. It's 11 minutes long, it was originally posted years before Gamergate and it uses examples from like 2008.

Because what gaming journalism is was always obvious.

youtube.com/watch?v=MJh5E573vAU

Based

No he said that's when he "discovered" Yea Forums and implied he used to be at least somewhat active

Game journalism is a fucking joke tbqh. Like, if you like video games and video games are your passion, yeah? Why not create games yourself and be independent?

hahahahaa this is gold, their reactions are priceless. I'd fuck her

Why the fuck are you even on Yea Forums go back to Yea Forums you fag

I hate this basedboy faggot so fucking much

Well you are not going to get that. People think when you say "press" they mean some sluthing person who exposes big corruption and shit like that.(Watergate, Enron scandal) The whole proffesion is not about that anymore. It is about being the PR man for Democrats or Republicans anymore. They have stopped being the "free press" and just make the news up and report that instead of just reporting what happened.

Why the fuck is he wearing a coat in the summer, you can see how sweaty he is, is he gay or something?

you wish

gotta get your muscles tight, brah

You think any game journalist actually fucking likes video games?

They like the fucking money they get from clicks for TOP 10 TIMES MARIO SAID FUCK! or to see celebrities like the kotaku faggot in the video was jerking himself off

Game journalists are just people who couldn't get their resume past the New York Tiimes dyke HR department

>I spewed vomit all over the place but at least I picked up the thing
was it worth it?

Retard, you're literally playing into his hand.

And anyone who actually watched the vid would know that is exactly what george said. That journalism, especially the "free" kind, is worlds from the ideal because somebody has to pay the bills.

Can't tell if retarded or zoom zoom.

I miss Instig8ive. What happened to him?

I'm not watching an hour long video on game journalism, go fuck yourself buddy

What celebrity was he sucking dick too? I didn’t see it because it’s a waist of my precious time.

>when I was 16 I discovered Yea Forums, and I barely made made it out of that phase with an ounce of self esteem and social skills intact

What did he mean by that?

no u

You can enjoy videogames for what they are rather than being insecure at the prospect that they're not as well suited for being high art than other mediums. If you need something to specifically be high art in order to even enjoy it at all then maybe it's you who should go back to Yea Forums.

>gaming journalism has advanced past gaming magazines--
I closed the tab right then and there. Holy shit. He actually thinks modern "gaming" "journalism" is better than print magazines were.

He either got bored or saw that things will only get worse and dropped out.

This. Game "journalism" is a scam. It's mostly click bait designed to impress the under 18 demographic that make up the majority of the YouTube game-channels' viewership.

When I decide on a game, game journalist channels are the LAST place I look. In fact I read through the negative reviews (discarding pleb tier comments like "boring" or "this game is bad") and considering the more legit reviews that go into depth about certain issues the game has.

He can't handle Yea Forums.

Journalist are the biggest enemy of western civilization, every single one of them is bought by politicians and they are their biggest shield.

Journalism isn’t a real job, it’s not a real profession, degenerate snakes that work against everything we hold dear.

This is the best Total Biscuit replacement they could find?

i liked the splinter cell video

That's a bit too old.

This is a retarded point, games journalism in the past managed to pay the bills just fine, simply reporting on games as the hobby

but just because the modern approach is
>WELL WE BOUGHT A HUGE FUCKING OFFICE IN THE MIDDLE OF DOWNTOWN HOLLYWOOD AND HIRED 100 FEMALES WRITERS AND GOT 50 NEW PING PONG TABLES AND DILATING STATIONS SO NOW WE HAVE TO REPORT FUCKING GARBAGE OR ELSE IT WON'T PAY FOR OUR FUCKING JACUZZI

That's far from paying the fucking bills

As usual the video completely agrees with what Yea Forums believes unless you're some dumbass who takes "leaks" as gospel without any proof. But it's much more fun to shitpost about George being too hot in a trenchcoat.

That the anonymous "anything goes" nature, where you don't matter, only the quality of your post, does a number on your self esteem if you don't something else that boosts your ego.

>still talking about GG
Obsessed

Why the fuck would you have any problem telling people you used to/still do lurk Yea Forums. Are you really so fucking scared of being laughed at by retarded zoomers and retarded game journos?

It doesn't agree with shit.
His fucking points are those that have been proven false time and time again

The fact he talks to a kotaku journalist and ethics in the same breath is such a fucking joke that I don't understand how he isn't rolling over with laughter at the absurdity of his statements

no such thing. once you're here, you can never leave.

Yea Forums hates everyone, that's kinda the point.
Deep down many of these people still enjoy Yea Forums but saying it out loud is inviting people to call you a racist pedophile.

It is another terrible thread bout some shitty e-celeb.

Check my name.

You don't know what you're talking about, George has always done good work. youtube.com/watch?v=4-7RLxrsJ04

I think Yea Forums can agree they had a lot more fucking ads.
We've had entire threads devoted to exclusively posting video game magazine ads.

all journalists are dishonest trash humans that deserve to hang tbqh.

Well how else are they going to keep up with their neo-hispter marxist-lenninist buddy on twitter if they are not hip and in San Fran? You wont be taken seriouslly unless you have a beanbag lounge and a hot tub in your office.

Ironically Schrier's recent dive into industry crunch is better journalism than we've seen from the "real journalists" in the last five years

And all he really did was confirm something literally everyone already knew

>This dork used to be a Yea Forums regular and ex-gaymergator lel
Love how all these grifters do a complete 180 to appease their pay-pigs,e.g. Fantano

They are. Print magazines at the time were their game publisher's advertisers with few exceptions. This isn't to say game journalism now is great, but it's far better than most of the crap back then.

There unironically are 16 year olds browsing here and you'd be lying to yourself if you believed otherwise

I doubt many even watched the whole thing
In the end, all news is based on something happening, and the truth is out there, but you still have to rely on second hand information because you, yes you, cannot literally be on the scene to know the truth by yourself
So pick your sources

Magazines were still in the ad boom. You remember the ad sense boom in the early 2000s? If your site got like 50k uniques a month google cut you a 5k check. Magazines, especially with the help of first party corporations, made way more and still had tonnes of unpaid interns who did lots of the legwork and they had maybe 5-10 people salaried. Today you have to write whatever gets clicks and, luckily for the journalists that gotten bored with vidya in their late 20s, nothing drives clicks like drama, especially related to social issues.

Ah yes, Nintendo Power, the height of video game journalism

Journalism isn’t a real profession, they serve no benefit to society.

Poor man.George has always been a huge, moderate nerd. He doesn't get really offended at stupid shit and so will likely be always shat on by Yea Forums for not being redpilled enough and by sjws for not calling people racist bigots on twitter or something.

He will sqwander any and all good will by saying that liking big boobs makes you a pedo again.
Just so his faggot friends on twitter don't flog and #metoo him for stepping out of the established "Bitch and moan their are not enough trannys in 13th century Poland"

Most of Kotaku may be a shithole but when Jason does those reports he does his fucking job.
The only retorts I've ever seen from Yea Forums on those are "I don't like this man" and "Kotaku bad". People haven't actually poked holes in his research because that's too much fucking work.

you can't be serious
maybe back in the early days of video games but in the 90s game magazines were pretty great.

>gamergate
What fucking year is it

Those ads were usually at least entertaining, that's why we have those threads

And because the space bought was in gaming mags, the ads were designed for that demographic

These days companies buy ad space and use it to plug ads they've already made for the wider public. There's no demo advertising with this model. You get the same Pepsi commercial on Kotaku that you get on YouTube that you get on TV.

So-called game journalism today is left-wing politics, clickbait and witch hunts by people who don't play or even like video games or know anything about them. Completely worthless.

How about you go back to your e-celeb nerd who probably has tons of tranny porn on his computer jusging by his pathetic basedboy face and suck some more Kotaku dick? We don’t need your faggot kind here, tranny.

well maybe scale back and see other options of how to create a successful revenue stream.
It's not my fucking fault that all of those old magazine heads spent the majority of their money on fucking blow

am I supposed to feel fucking woe for these people who create crap because if they don't they'll be out of a job?

No, he is just in love with journalism
George loves journalism he is a Fucking nerd about it and it's basically defending it whenever the internet shit talks it
Picking kotaku was deliberate , it's a large publication that is often shit talked online
George whistle to when Jason says he studied at NYU is him confirming his bias that people in these gaming journous jobs are not incompetent people, they got good education
The problem he pretends to ignore is that journos are not gamers
It's the same shit as the cup head guy, he defended journalism back then because he loves it and does damage control to protect it
His new thing now is saying that you need journos first than gamers in gaming journalism because journos will be able to report it better than gamers or tech heads which kinda makes sense
But the problem is that we need a happy medium, and most gaming journos are not that

Right, who needs to watch the news anyway? Let's just let others do all the thinking for us.

Yes.

>If you can't adapt fucking die
They did adapt, in a way that ruined the already fucked up reputation of their profession, but it works. At least until they have to scale down again, get bought out again which allows them to hire again and the cycle continues.

He's right tho. Fuck this site. I want it to die so I can be free of this hell.

Nigger, what?

>Tell me how to feel about thing

No, reports like that are exactly what games journalists SHOULD be doing.

They shouldn't be an extended marketing department for the AAA industry.
They shouldn't be activists for some special interest group unrelated to video games.

They SHOULD be delivering news about the industry they're a part of.
That includes the nature of the business, what's happening behind the scenes and uncovering problems like the increasingly abusive conditions developers are put through that up until recently have just been accepted as part of the job.

Now, for those same journos to turn it into a political soapbox about unions, that's another issue entirely

Absolutely based news story

This is directly related to Zoe Quinn and Nathan Grayson by the way. Nathan covered Zoe more than once and was featured in the credits of her game and gave her money and was fucking her with 0 disclosure.

You could make a better argument if you posted an article by someone he actually mentioned.
He says everybody sort of off hand and then actually names the names he gives a shit about. It's corporate speak but I respect you finding any opportunity to post this image.

Instig8 quit during the early stages of GG because he correctly foresaw that absolute pieces of shit were appointing themselves "leaders" of GG on twitter, and these people were attention seeking faggots who cared more about their own profile than improving games journalism. He criticized GG for pretending to want improved games journalism while also having a "it's our way or the highway" stance AKA "we'll run you out of town if you say things we don't like." He genuinely wanted to see games journalism fixed but knew GG wasn't doing that and was instead hijacked by people who only wanted to complain about SJWs. He knew he couldn't argue with the mob because anyone who wasn't 100% behind GG was an enemy and a SJW and he became disillusioned and gave up on games reporting because it was too fucking retarded.

I think he is saying that, what a faggot

Well he has praised Susan "the white race is the cancer of human history" Sontag before in his videos.

Well you will miss out on Jason making an ass of himself for woke points. Remember you said he was "well reaseched" so you can defend his view that liking big tits makes you a pedo. So i must ask were is his "well reaseched" opinion on that?

I'd say it would have been based if she covered more scenarios and not ones that she participated in herself. Just one story on one subject on a game that came out 5 years ago is pretty shit cock milking aside.

Kys tranny

The guy doesn't criticize gamergaters or anyone he's just telling people how to fact check articles.

This probably makes games journalists seethe more than anyone else because it shows people how to dismiss their BS articles

>wear hat made by dear leader
>tell detractors "wow, he really occupies your head!"

And no we won't shut up about him until he goes away, tyvm senpai

Yeah, things were working very well for them when it was something only the devs knew about.

They definitely weren't stifled by threat of losing their livelihoods--even journalists are often scared to touch this kind of thing for fear of blacklisting.

This is games journalism.

the only reason /pol/tards and gamergaters don't want journalists to exist is so they can get away scot free because they know journalists would dig up anything

That's their fucking problem. Reporting on it in a consumer-centric publication is just trying to get me on their side in their labor dispute I have no personal stake in.

Scot free with what?

Games are high art you fuck, in the same way literally everything is. You'd know this if you were actually from Yea Forums.

Thats why.

Well I say fuck you, because I'm interested in it and want to support devs. And it looks like you're the minority, so...

No shit, I was browsing here when I was 14 and I know people who started at eleven.

Well then I hope you'll get a share of the dues when they form that union otherwise you're shilling for them in their labor dispute for free.

gamergate is eternal, everytime a gaming journalist try to have at least a bit of dignity, he will be reminded that a gaming journalist once sold her body for early access to a game, just to then give a bad review and getting called a slut

And that's the problem with Schreier. When he does some actual journalism(researching, fishing for sources, talking to insiders on and off the record for weeks or months) dude is pretty much the best in his field, it's a low bar but still. But when he and his site pumps out the day-to-day articles it's not worth the digital paper it's printed on.

I support people I think are right. I've always been in favour of them unionising, because I'm not an American.

Yes, the very same journalists who lobby incredibly hard for closet conservatives like Joe Biden while also building up a clownish new image of leftism for people to follow

That is picked up in the video, how you need to do gossip shit to actually feed yourself because everyone needs money to eat and since advertisement is only thing that matters in current internet climate, editors prefer clickbait

Don't you think you deserve compensation for doing their labor agitation for them?

he always was.

No, of course not. Arguing about video games on the internet is its own reward.

>editors prefer clickbait
That is the problem. Kotaku also fucked up with Luara Dale
>She
Tried the clickbait with "PERSONA 5 IS RACIST BECAUSE I MISHERED LYRICS" backfired in its face.

That's the flaw of journalism as a practice. Well research pieces can be great, but when you do it as a profession you need to put out clickbait shit to pay the bills.

This is why freelance journalists who don't do it as their full time job tend to be better.

That is just the business reality right now
There is no alternative other than times changing or publications going full patreon or something

idk how to break it to you bro but the US doesn't have a liberal party between the big 2, Democrats and Republicans are both incredibly conservative parties. Liberalism in the US died out many decades ago, and most of the people you deride as liberal today are not liberal at all, they're just less conservative.

Just a question but how can i trust a jerno to give me a full rundown of a game and talk to me about all of its features if they can't even have the mental wits to play it?
I am reminded of the DMC5 jerno. The one who complained that the music was bad, not knowing the better you play the more the music kicks in.
When this was pointed out all he did was block people and passive agressively post updates on twitter.
That man showed utter contempt to us. He did not like to be proven wrong on the "issue" he posted about. He is right, you are wrong to him.
So why should i take their words when they have people like this?

Most of you anons weren't even around when GamerGate happened, and while it is practically embedded in chan culture at this point to hate on journalism (a well deserved stance mind you) George is an OG Yea Forums drone and his points in the video are pretty on-par with what Yea Forums supports. If journalism wasn't so important, then video essays, reviews, and critiques of media would fail to garner any attention.
>B-But user, MatthewMatosis is based and redpi-
So what if he is? He's not different than Jason Schreier or any other s o y b o y reviewing Funko Pops. The point is that we're not at a stage in society where opinions, no matter valid or not, want to be heard by the populace.
Ironic how the ones posting shit like "DON"T QUESTION JUST CONSUME PRODUCT" are the same people being spoonfed information about the product. Bunch of neo-Luddite fags.
Oh, you hate lootboxes? You hate how you're not the 'approved demographic' for games? Why weren't you screaming for change back in 2006, when shit started to hit the fan? You don't give a shit, that's why.

You have to find someone you can trust and follow them
There is lot more to video games than just playing them, that is why for REPORTING you don't actually need to be good at video games. You don't need to beat video games to interview developers on their working conditions or how do the see the new cloud and streaming competition panning out.

>how you need to do gossip shit to actually feed yourself because everyone needs money to eat
Yeah, but at the same time you can't be asking or expecting to be respected if that happens. It is like opening a Library but it is also a whore house. The hoes keep the lights on but you've got cum all over the books and discredited the establishment.

How is it pretty on Par?

George is basically going that Journalists are corrupt so do your own research and at the same time sucking journalists dicks because they work hard (which they don't) and praising them on how smart they are despite having the IQ of fucking penuts

Than he goes onto say that old journalism is bad because it didn't take into account pop culture and that the only reason that jounralists today put out a shit load of garbage pieces is because they have a large cost of affording their piece of shit studio in San Fran and that they're simply a victim of circumstance and not the perpetraters of garbage

How is that in anyway related to what Yea Forums believes?

He admitted to going to school for journalism. What do you expect?

I could have SWORN that was LindyBeige before I opened the thumbnail.

Not watching your shit video, stay irrelevant, cuck.

That's been the excuse they've used for years; and the reason they keep getting away with it is typically because the interviewer is too much of a dipshit to press the issue.

Look, I'm not even on the extreme end of the "sjw-hate" shit. In fact, I wouldn't even mind the social activism angle if it was actually well written, well thought out, and engaging. However, a vast majority isn't.

The problem with sites like Kotaku and Polygon is that their content either reads like someone who either has the most surface understanding of the issue; or it's basically "I'm only writing this because it would look too pretentious as a twitter thread". On top of that, it comes from that really shitty partisan expectation that you should just take their word as gospel; god forbid you disagree, you filthy gamergater nazi.

It's a waste of time to even take their bullshit seriously.

What?

>George is an OG Yea Forums drone and his points in the video are pretty on-par with what Yea Forums supports.
What that click bait is okay cause it keeps the lights on? When has that ever been what Yea Forums supported? You should do your own research is a fine statement sure, but that doesn't justify the quality of the journalism we get. It is a need because the general quality is so low. You can try phrasing it as a positive and the public should do more. But when you think about it the question is why not improve journalism? Why not find other sources to fund the site? Why not adopt new models not based on clicks? Why not hire better staff?

>So what if he is? He's not different than Jason Schreier
Does he put out 100 shitty clickbait videos a day so the maybe 1 good video comes out that month? Cause that isn't how he works and that irish prick can't keep a schedule. If I watch one of his videos I don't need to go searching for every little thing he said to check I wasn't lied to.

Because maybe they are experts of business or analytics. Or just reporting, journalism. The writing and interviewing.

Have you ever thought to yourself
>gee I have to really stretch to make my "opponent" look bad, maybe I'm the one in the wrong?

see He's done work to call out Kotaku but seems to have put it behind him lately even unlisting that video. It's kind of sad honestly.

there is nothing more sad than programmers
just ask programmers

you can't even find the original Dragon's Crown article where he made a giga faggot out of himself. Like it was so embarrassing that I was afraid Jason was going to shoot up the work place over how much cringe he posted.

>so I just follow people who I know will retweet good shit on twitter
That is a horrible band aid, cause shit does get misreported. How is judging off what articles on twitter someone retweeted a good way to judge quality or accuracy? You are admitting that most of the output is shit, so are attempting to find filters so maybe only a little shit come through. How about we fix the source instead, cause if poor journalism means we need people doing leg work they really serve no purpose. We may as well just look at the origin of any story cause we will have to do the leg work eventually.

he did a 15 minute segment on it, and than had the faggot kotaku guy talk about how shitty old journalism is and how great Kotaku is because of how many pop culture topics they talked about and how they were basically the pioneers of bringing in garbage fucking non-related content to video game journalism

Fuck off George, stop trying to backpedal

I think at this point people just conflate all of Yea Forums to be /pol/
It's common knowledge that the demographic here is libertarian white dudes in their mid-20's, but everyone is still convinced there's nothing but a bunch of literal mouth-breathing retards and actual toddlers browsing this site.
To be fair, though, I'd get that impression too if I hadn't been hear since '05. Never change, Yea Forums.

Boards where you can use words like faggot, nigger, kike and tranny without getting banned are instantly 1000% worse than any other board.

why is this video unlisted?

You spent the last two hours discussing a nobody being wrong for clicks on the internet. Food for thought.

Fuck off you nigger tranny kike faggot

Well then they should not have said that to the blue collar workers who they mocked with that line eh? Karma is a bitch.
Yea i bet he scrubbed it. Journalists are good at doing that when they fuck up. Any other industry on the planet has to account for their fuck ups. But the "free press" gets a pass. You will always find a scum sucking journo going DFE when they fuck up. Lest they be holded to their own words.

Drama is one hell of a drug.

I remember that video, but i was talking about this one. Him unlisting it kind of proves the point in some way, he'll just as happily hide inconvenient info. Like most people, to him good journalism is stuff that agrees with him. So the transgressions don't count at those times, people still holding onto GG will still push OAG and people like George will now push kotaku.

>that jounralists today put out a shit load of garbage pieces is because they have a large cost of affording their piece of shit studio in San Fran and that they're simply a victim of circumstance and not the perpetraters of garbage

What the fuck are you even talking about? This is like saying people should get rid of cable because they're only going to watch two channels out of the 200 included in a plan.
Shut the fuck up lmao

Remember when a Journo cries at you for hating the press. He is the one who wants to make sure archive sites are banned. Just so you can't use anything he has said against him.

At no point did either of them say that Kotaku having off-topic stuff is inherently a good thing. It's just a thing that they acknowledge.

And magazines were shitty for video game journalism, yes. Considering that most of them considered news stories a low priority outside of direct game announcements. But saying that magazines weren't a good medium for journalism doesn't mean that he's arguing that journalism is great today, if anything he lays out all the ways that journalism can be compromised. The video isn't called "MODERN GAME JOURNALISM IS WONDERFUL", it's "Media Literacy and Game News".

>CLICKBAIT BAD
>CLICKBAIT THREAD GOOD

But I just want to read about video games. I don't care about some blue-haired "community manager", being totally oppressed because she can't act like a cunt on Twitter, or about how some Kotaku tranny is bad at video games.

It's all fine, but really basic stuff anyone who's looked into journalism criticism or ethics once should already have a firm understanding of. Nothing mind blowing.

My main problem with game journalists is that they're fucking retarded casuals with shit tastes. There's literally no justifiable defense for shit like the DmC debacle or blatantly unfinished games like MGSV being awarded near-perfect universal praise.

Meanwhile some dude working out of his basement like Matthewmaotsis absolutely blows journalists out of the fucking water in terms of actually in-depth reviews and criticism of games. It's not even a competition.

Yea Forums had a hateboner for Kotaku long before GG. People even use to make fake images of Kotaku articles that were ridiculous on purpose and nobody could tell the difference.

He pumped out his Last of Us review within a few weeks of the game coming out. He could definitely adhere to a game journalist schedule (of getting a review code a few weeks before hand) if he tried. Even if his review quality would dip as a result of having less time, it would still be a fucking universe away from anything game journalists could do. They're fucking retards and offer no insightful knowledge because their head is so far up their own asses.

And much like the eroge on Steam pics, it became reality.

Doesn't fucking look like it.

I'm not saying all game reviews should be these 1 hour video essays with months of work put into them, the existing format can still work. The problem is game journalists are (by and large) fucking idiots and can't even offer any basic insight in their pre-existing game reviews. Again, there's literally no excuse for trasheaps like DmC, MGSV, ZTD, Fallout 4, etc (all blatantly flawed games universally panned by their more knowledgeable fanbases) getting the outstanding praise they received from the media. The fact that they get such praise is an indicator of how casual game journalists are.

And like said, the fact they're allowed to actually influence the games industry with their uniformed and garbage analysis is legitimately terrible.

isn't that what the journalists job is? why not just have standards so we don't have to worry about fraudulent articles being published

trannies have more power than any one on the internet despite their apparent lack of population.

Unfortunatley due to the rise of social media, information gets spread around very quickly, and the fact that any literal who can start up a news site nowadays means that it's very easy to lie or twist facts to suit an agenda or benefit a partnering company. This means you should verify everything you read on news sites. Yea it fucking sucks, but just as you wouldn't instinctively trust a stranger, you shouldn't immediately trust a news piece.

Hardcore gamers are just detatched from reality, especially here. Pretty much every complain that they have about game journalism come to the fact that journalists are normies and write for normies, they can't understand that they are not the target demograpic of those reviews and news...I think the biggest example is that people here still live under the assumption that those "gamers are dead" headlines of the past were about some "culture war" and a lie, and not the change of demographics caused by mobile and a absolute truth with most titles today being made thinking more about those people than they

Journalism is a media institution entirely meant to be investigative and truthful, to say that you need to always factcheck their journalism is a tacit admission that the journalist in question is entirely superfluous. Sure, it's a good idea to to that, but to say that it is a necessity is just pointing out your rot.

The "well established" "journalists" are often the ones twisting facts the hardest.

If the news pieces are inherently untrustworthy the websites and journalists are not worth considering and are leeches.

The article was very simply about how "people who play games" doesn't just mean some lonely weirdo in a basement, because so many people play games now. And it's true. If anything is actually wrong with the article is that it's boring as fuck and stating the obvious. Everyone knows normies play games now too. Everyone knows mobile games are huge. Everyone here is in agreement with the article because it's just a basic as fuck fact. But still retards imagine the article was actually about a call for white genocide, starting with anyone who plays videogames.

Game journalists suck at their jobs so you should be aware of how to find the real sources and look at many articles about the same topic to get the point, since once again, game journalists suck at their job.

By having the company and editor that the journalist work for have some sort of accountability on what their journalists produce on their website

It is the only game journalist I can give a fuck about.

All he says about Kotaku is that they talk about video games more than other forms of media in comparison to other big gaming sites. He has Jason Schrier in the video, but he mostly talks about the details of his job. There's nothing political in the video.

Maybe not what you want but Upper Echelon Gaming covers trending topics, it's very objective, explains why practices directly affect the games themselves, and tries to avoid petty "culture war" pandering, even when it's talking about stuff like censorship.

>long in depth investigative pieces that took months of research and had to get run by legal a dozen times.
I've only seen this type in gaming "journalism" twice in my entire life. One of them was a piece on Dennis Dyack and the fall of Silicon Knights. A piece that was written after months of research and interviews with former employees from Silicon Knights and anyone who had interactions with him during the development of Eternal Darkness, one of the X-Men games, Too Human and the supposed Eternal Darkness II sequel. I looked up the writer of the article. It was a freelance writer with actual credible work at respectable newspapers.

The gaming press doesn't breed these kind of people anymore. They need outsiders to write this stuff. But with today's political climate and era of blogging personal opinions as headline articles, I'm not sure if those people even exist anymore.

>Pseudo game reviewer is trying to butter up other reviewers and network his way into the industry
At this point the above is pretty transparent. He isn't an idiot, but he is just as scummy as your average Kotaku reviewer though.

The fact you think you understand everyone's understanding of journalism in this thread despite not knowing them shows how poor your critical thinking skills are.

Do you retards forget that this is a massive multi-billion dollar industry? Is there not more substance to it than the very surface level observation?

Is this what you want from content creators? Great, many peoples do this kind of content. What about the people who are interested in the larger picture of what video games occupy in life? Are their interests not vindicated simply by looking at the amount of videos made on these topics? How would Super Bunny Hop exist if not for this interest?

>only needs to be occasionally examined

The "Larger picture" is so easily graspable to even laymen. If all the journalists do is explain already simple to grasp concepts, they are irrelevant.

Yea Forums getting triggered over games journalists and acting like they're the devil goes back to Colin Moriarty calling them entitled
Which is hilarious because Colin is a right winger and agrees with Yea Forums more than any other journo

Those are all parts of the game. They are related to the game. Shit like "Playing Nazis in a WWII game is problematic" or "TOP 10 GAMES AS HARD AS DARK SOULS" are not part of the game.
There's plenty of channels that cover trending topics and how products are affected by industry practices. From little shit like censoring games, to how a economic model of microitransactions affects customers, to how player progression directly affects the userbase and game longevity.
Unsurprisingly the "game journalists" often slander this sort of channels because "CRITIC MAN BAD"

This is how marketeering is done on Yea Forums, by people pretending to be outraged. This is also modern game journalism.

Whatever the retard in the OP said is irrelevant. People are talking about a more general theme, and that invites discussion.

>People are talking about a more general theme
Right now we're talking about how retarded you fucking are. Let's focus on that theme.

If you fell for the misinformation that MGSV was missing more than ONE cut mission (which happens to games ALL. THE. TIME.) then you're retarded enough to trust Yea Forums, gullible, and a total hypocrite

>invites discussion
That sounds like something some normalfag would say.

Well I’m an old school torrie so where’s my news for that?

>Yea Forumstard
What the fuck?
I like that theme

Know what's entitlement?
Telling coal miners who lost their jobs to learn to code, but getting so buttblasted when the same happens to you that you beg Twitter to act like your nannny to protect your feelies.

Newfags. Yea Forums was called entitled because they didn't like the ending of Mass Effect 3. You're putting the cart before the horse, not that I expect you to be intelligent enough to understand that figure of speech

Yeah, MGSV was totally not clearly rushed in development and unfinished, whether or not it's just one actually removed mission. A game is unfinished when it is unfinished, not when it's merely missing some complete content.

You three are fucking idiots and you know damn well why people hate game journos, but hey it's fine let's gatekeep instead, faggots.

Game journalism is a fucking joke since journos started being buddy buddy with devs. Couple that with the fact that most of them are failed movie critics that don't care about videogames or treat them as childish. Now rubbing shoulders with devs is an opportunity to move up in the world. How many of them quit their jobs to become community managers or whatever.
Looking at it through that lens shows you why they take the side of devs/publishers whenever a controversy appears. Integrity and protecting the consumer is thrown out the window.

>Why does he look sweaty
overweight man in studio lighting

Maybe, just maybe, GG was newfag bullshit for teenagers

I like the theme of fucking your mother a lot more, apparently it is a very hot topic.

>Newfags. Yea Forums was called entitled because they didn't like the ending of Mass Effect 3.
You aren't intelligent either by the looks of it since disliking shitty writing which resulted from the original lead writer and his assistants who created the entire Mass Effect universe being replaced by dumb hacks is anything but, is anything but entitlement but common sense. In case you missed it, which you did in your intellectual downturn, it's Yea Forums who pulled the credits comparisons of the Mass Effect series and laid the usual EA dogshittery of fucking up devs bare with ME2 already and sniffed out in advance that ME3 will be dogshit with no repair possible. Only dumbfaggot outsiders like yourself had any expectations to be defined as entitled. So again, riddle it little bitch.

Maybe, just maybe, you're a fuckin idiot.

Kinda like the topic of how you'll never get laid despite the fact of being a female ally? :^)

Ass effect always had shitty writing, Bioware hasn't made a good game since Jade Empire. I'm sorry you were too young at the time to notice.
Literally 12 years old. Grow up kiddo, learn new words, prove that I'm stupid

As the consumer, the interaction I have is with the game mechanics. That is fundamental and that is what is fundamental when you want to hear someone talk about the game.

>prove that I'm stupid
I think your post speaks for itself.

George is based and Yea Forums hating him is all the more proof

Journalists of all stripes are cancer and should be shot.

What "data" you mongoloid? I'm referring to the fact of the reporting that took place, the reporting that you're obviously familiar with since you're spewing bullshit about it so confidently. I notice you didn't bother bringing any facts to support your assertions in the first place. Probably because if you had to go looking for them they wouldn't support your narrative at all.

And yet people were obviously still excited for ME3. They played it to the end within days of release and then came to Yea Forums to bitch about it.

Yes, that's right, we were always at war with Oceania. That's why so many people played ME3 on release. They already knew they'd hate it so much, see, that they'd have lots of material for a nice collage to post on Yea Forums. No one was disappointed.

>To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand my posts. The humor is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer's head. There's also user's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation - his personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realize that they're not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike my posts truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in my existencial catchphrase "I don't think you understand theoretical physics but yet you continue to be here wasting space and time" which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic Fathers and Sons I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as my genius unfolds itself on their computer screens. What fools... how I pity them. And yes by the way, I DO have a Rick and Morty tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- And even they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand.

They mix fine, journalists are just incompetent at the interactivity part. It's like getting a bunch of illiterates to do book reviews and author interviews.

You actually took the time to edit that? Sad. You shoulda just posted a picture, that would have been about equal to the amount of effort you put into anything. Although that's about the same effort. It's not original, it isn't yours, but you stole it and morphed it to your needs. Pretty much sums up your existence. You're the nigger of the internet. Good job!

>GG failed
How'd it fail?
Started out with adult feminists past their teenage years getting into a scuffle with mostly underage gaming community, and losing so bad against children they had to beg journalists to stoop to their level to make hit pieces against children and their underage hobby.
I'd say the children always win when a dumbshit adults stoops to the level of involving media and politics to fight them. Shameful display.
