Video game journalists were SO bad, they failed to indoctrinate their audience like other media leading us to contaminate OTHER groups to mistrust the media!

Games Journos are so bad they spent their entire existence as a laughing stock. From being obvious shills, to being Playboy but with Lara Croft, to being really bad at games, to being Leftist political pieces.

Unlike every other media industry they never developed a historical competence to fall back on, that people could point to and say "well they used to do really good work, this is just a misstep." Which meant they couldn't ever shake that bought and sold stigma.

Heck without having Google in their pocket and abusing algorithms, even the most mainstream like IGN wouldn't be able to influence anyone.

At this point, I think it's even spread to outside trump supporters.

In fact, I think it also lead to a general distaste for Journalists as a whole, with them all being seen as one of the lowest of professions in the modern era.

They cheated 3 times. He won โ€œbeyond the margin of fraudโ€ twice.

They also failed to notice Musk's obviously account sharing in Diablo 4 and PoE.

I dunno, I like DOGE and most of Musk's efforts. But why must he lie pathologically about his gaming endeavors?

His dad works at Nintendo, so he totally has the best PoE gear.

Because his goal was to look good, and being exposed lying about it makes him look bad.

I think banging Amber Heard is a far more embarrassing misstep than faking your Diablo chops.

Yeah, he probably lies about quite a bit... Really makes me wonder what else. But it was a bad lie, anyone who understands how much you have to grind in a videogame would see right through it

Yeah, the relative incompetence of it all is the worst part.

Yes, that describes this feeling.

Like his lie is so laughably bad it's an incompetent lie
