Says bought by parent company of thegamer and gamerant. I associate those with click/rage bait
It’s the cycle most gaming publications go through. I don’t think even IGN has much of any critical/cultural/marketing value anymore so good luck to any other website
Become games media big and then become more and more a game guide completionist blogspam website and milking a single interview into like 30 articles. Then terminate out as an AI generated articles Google SEO advertising revenue farm putting out articles like, “Has Persona 6 been Announced Yet?” that somehow instead of a yes/no is instead an article of 20 paragraphs saying nothing
Quite often they openly refer to Xitter posts as a source for simple game mechanics when the game has come out already. They don‘t even play the games they report on anymore.
Isn’t that how most businesses work? If a small company gets successful enough to be big but not so successful that they become the market leader then a big company buys them for their customer base.
It rarely works out, but it'd be great if some of the fired staff tried going independent. A couple of my favorite groups managed it after they were fired in similar circumstances.
