    The fact that I can open up ChatGPT right now and say “Write a Kotaku article about why Tetris is racist” and get a 100% believable result out of it should be a sign that they’ve been replaceable for a while now.

    Not much was lost. Both Gizmodo and Kotaku content have already been indistinguishable from poorly generated AI content for ages now.

        Ironically nothing seems to rile up some gamers more than when game journalists try to be more than a corporate PR relay. God forbid anyone talks about labor issues, social issues, or worse, actually publishes a critique of a popular triple-A game.

                So weird and obsessive to not only care about who might disagree with your comment, but to then seek to notify them demanding an explanation. Like I have to justify why I disagree or dont find any particular comment useful?

                I diagreed because I am a gamer and I DO care about labor conditions in the industry. While I don’t work in it, I have many friends that do and they identify as gamers and do care. I dont like making gamers a monolith, nor do I agree with the assertion that the reason they were disliked was due to them cocering labor issues. Thats why I downvoted the comment. I dont expect you or the others to agree with me, obviously, but the idea that you’d try to get people to justify it is fucking weird.
