Video game reviews are fake and gay
Quote from this cool website:https://digdeeper.neocities.org/ghos...ismcancer.html
Crazy that happened in 2007...
Developers used to release free demos of games, so that you got access to a few levels and were able to decide if you want to shell out the money.
These days, you have to rely on "sponsored" reviews, where the reviewers must agree to terms such as "Videos will promote positive sentiment about the game. Videos must not show bugs or glitches that may exist." and "Persuade viewers to purchase game, catch the attention of casual and core gamers [...]".
Written reviews do not avoid the issues - people even get fired []https://v1.escapistmagazine.com/news...From-Gamespot](archive) for giving a game bad ratings - "Eidos threatened to pull ad revenue from Gamespot as a result of his review, and though this kind of thing is relatively common in games journalism, the nascent management team panicked and decided that Gerstmann was unreliable."
So... yea apparently video game companies pay reviewers for "sponsored" reviews, where they can't say anything bad about the game :/Crazy that happened in 2007...
