I mean, I guess he's not technically wrong but just seems an odd place to say it. Who is looking to a review of a console to be told how shitty the world currently is. Seems like a good time to try and gain some moments of happiness tbh.

Kotaku sucks hard. I felt like they don't play the games they write about and hired a bunch of progressive women who only play the sims and Pokmon. Those were the only articles I'd ever see promoted by the on my Facebook feed years ago but I haven't followed them for years

CRON 11/08/20 4:26:13 PM #21: |
The problem with gaming journalists these days is that they're very clearly insecure that their writing profession is centered around a hobby most people dismiss as childish and immature, so they try to contort any benign topic to fit some exaggerated political narrative. They're effectively one step above people who go on morning news/talk shows and shill "THIS YEAR'S HOTTEST HOLIDAY TOYS".

Kotaku giving legitimacy to the word SJW as despective. Imagine reviewing the new SW movies and saying its not worth to go see it bc how things are in the world.
Maybe that IS what people need the most, right now? Not everything has to be doom and gloom all the time. Besides this is not Syria where the place you lived got completely destroyed. We just hit a recession due to a pandemic that kills less than 98% of the people who catch it.

Here's the paragraph right before TC's excerpt:
This review has spent 3,000 words talking about the PlayStation 5, which is the most Ive written about anything. Its as good a video game console as there has ever been. The combination of ultra high-definition video, increased framerates, high-end graphics techniques like ray tracing, and the lightning-fast SSD make it feel like a real-deal, next-gen successor to the PlayStation 4. And if youre not ready to give up on the previous console, the PlayStation 5 reliably runs a vast majority of the PlayStation 4 library, with many of those games receiving upgrades to fidelity, framerate, and loading times.As it points out, this is a fairly long review that talks all about the PS5's features and specs, and the games the reviewer played on it. Interesting that TC would pull a paragraph from the very end that is in no way indicative of the rest of the review --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Perhaps whining isn't the word. TC's statement was "Gaming journalism is a fucking joke, and don't you ever forget it."
This statement was based on one paragraph at the very end of a 3000+ word review which talks extensively about the actual system. So maybe not whining. Just kinda dumb. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!
