Why is the Switch so successful?

>to tie into this, you know they wouldn't be able to pull this normally, so they bribe journalists to talk about how it's "the future" and how we should all embrace it. Come on, have you not seen blatant market manipulation at work? IT's the same thing as when you see a ton of threads pop up about how steam is the devil, but you should use Epic games instead. And then you find that every journalist is on epic's payroll. Or vice versa.
I don't really know where are you going with this. Of course journalist are just marketers, so what. Ubisof, EA and Microsoft are offering a service if you don't care then ignore it.
>I can literally watch them on youtube and lose nothing.
I disagree. Watching something and playing it yourself it's a completely different experience. Playing as Joel yourself and sneaking around the zombies it's a lot more tense and inmersive than watching someone else doing it. Also, i enjoy the gameplay of those games as well and consider it good, you can think it's shit if you want.

If they want to offer their service, perhaps they could do it without paying kotaku and destructoid to tell me how great it is and how I'm an evil fascist nazi for not wanting to blindly jerk them off for taking my money.

And do you know what makes it a different experience? The videogamey stuff inbetween the cutscenes. And if that isn't up to par, well there goes the only edge that the movie game has over youtube.

I don't even know what we are arguing about here. That was my point. That's why i said i enjoy the gameplay of those games so to me, watching the last of us 2 in youtube when it comes out instead of playing it myself doesn't make any sense. If you think Sony games have bad gameplay then too bad for you i guess.
