I don't use gaming journalism. It's always been pretty pointless in my eyes. I'm pretty sure it all devolves into clickbait eventually.

how's that serious

I got my definition from a screencap of /v/ on the #Gamergate hashtag. It said "This is not about the victimization of women, it's about corruption in gaming journalism"
I don't know where he got his from.

video games are really big and very important to a lot of people

video games are important to me personally and i think not having a reliable way to read about games you want to buy is a big problem for a multi-billion dollar industry

metacritic is the answer

Gaming culture in itself is pretty bad.

Wouldn't expect journalism to not reflect the community.
bad community=bad journalism

I was under the impression that metacritic had critic scores as well as user reviews
aka use the user reviews score

you can say "it has a bad community" to anything. literally, any online or offline community that isn't like a charity or something

because that' the only kind of bad part of the gaming community, right?
