TL;DR: Gaming journalism is bullwhip, we should all aspire to be Nintendo Power or Christ Centered Gamer-esque in our review practices, we should stop getting worthless clickbait, we should also stop getting politically correct bullshit get shoved down our throats. That's what I want out of it.

But, sure, giving /v/ and /pol/ mascots, getting lots of laughs, and watching Gawker and Box crash and burn is fine, too.


This. Completely.

The thing here is, the audience they are trying to make feel embarassed has the power to bring it up to them. Dont click their articles. Dont feed the trolling. The less exposure these articles get, the more likely this is to stop. If they dont want you, dont go to them. Its that simple. If they are ashamed to be games journalists, they are the ones that need to change. Not the other way around.
