Whenever you're on the staff of a website and are being paid to be a journalist, I'd say you have to hold your staff to high standards as gaming journalism itself is already considered a joke. |
But where do you draw the line? Gaming journalism gets flack for giving games free perfects other than being paid off, Runa wants to write an article discussing the problems with the game. His article he wants to create is a critique, which is what gaming journalists fail to do anymore. He mentioning that the article will be flamebait for the fact that Final Fantasy fans are way to hardcore. I mean Perpride here literally said I didn't ilke Final Fantasy XIII because it was released on the 360, completely ignoring the game's shortcomings. Yet I get called an Xbox hater because I found flaws with the game and am dissapointed with the game. If there wasn't such a polarization with the game's fanbase he probably wouldn't have mentioned the article as "Flamebait".
