Well clearly vidja game journalists are just agenda pen pushers rather than some elite basement dweller. I actually never seen that review till now and it's pretty bad.

Any game that isnt a barely-interactive, agenda-pushing piece of shit like Life is Tumblr is too hard for them. It's part of why they lavish praise on that crap. Being degenerate is the other part.
It's why they praise "narrative driven games" in general like Last of Us. They can copy paste shit from film criticism to look intelligent without having to learn anything about basic fucking game design or game mechanics because game journos are lazy and stupid.

Recently, he amended that review after a second playthrough. The reason? He... forgot to assign talent points the first time around. I don't think I would've even believed that if it didn't come from the man himself:
He might actually be retarded.

More egregiously, Takahashi thought that the decades-old Warhammer 40,000 sci-fi series ripped off Gears of War’s designs. In a 2011 article, he panned the former for being so “embarrassing” that it made him “wonder about the dearth of creativity in video games.”

When he was later raked over the coals by readers, he attempted to justify his mistake. “First, this post is not research-backed journalism,” he wrote. “I walked into a room, looked at a game, and offered what I thought about it. I’ve been doing that professionally for around 15 years.” Classic.

Yep, actually retarded holy shit.

I think you could pick up a random dude from the street and have him turn out to be a better game journalist.

And man, Cuphead is neat. It's like it was made by an alternate universe Western version of Vanillaware.

I also find the depiction of women quite problematic.

You know I'm sure cuphead is a good game, but I'm really sick of seeing this fucking game show up on youtube and all over.

I agree. But that's hype culture and it fucking blows. In six months, we'll all have forgotten this game existed.

Cuphead is hashtag trending because paid game journo pros gotta fucking shill those products.
