Just to make a more meta comment, this is a case where cynicism is definitely not helping. We need better journalists to do this kind of deep dive without concern for losing a revenue stream. And not just in gaming hardware, either.
If we cynically label every journalist that does it as "drama mongers", we're only hurting ourselves.
I haven't been super happy about how GN approaches their journalism since they tend to sensationalize a bit, but I at least appreciate that they are pretty accurate when it comes to actual factual statements.
His heart's in the right place, I just don't like the tone.
Is there any case where cynicism is helpful?
When being scammed.
