Worst Clickbait Article I’ve Seen (And Everything Wrong with it)
In this Article called "2023 has been a horrible year for gaming" from TheGamer, the editor in chief goes over some of the bad news in gaming, covering Baldur's Gate 3 as an indie studio, Xbox Activision, Call of Duty but uses clickbait to get you there, and then doesn't cover it with the nuance it deserves. I'm here to comment on it, because it's important, and needs more detail.
