Polygon. Whoever they have doing their gameplay videos is absolutely atrocious, which makes me question whether I can trust their reviewer's opinions when they may not even have the competence to be able to play the games that they're reviewing. In that regard, IGN is a close second. -_-

Besides that, I think they allow social issues to influence their reviews too much. The fact that they found the need to complain about CDPR even giving the option for a sympathetic response during the Bloody Baron quest is the prime example of this. Polygon is far too forcefully opinionated regarding certain subjects for me to be able to relate to anything they have to say. Meanwhile I'm sat hear wishing there was a game that let you be the most racist, sexist, homophobic, selfish, hateful son of a bitch imaginable, in spite of any in game consequences, if you so please. But that would never fly, because people like Polygon tend to think that giving the option to do a thing in a videogame is the same as explicitly condoning said act.
