Honestly not surprised, catering to GamersTM honestly feels like a fool’s errand;
there seems to be an ever growing divide between what the vocal minority demands to see, and what the silent majority of the market ends up consuming.
Catering to the former is like dancing on a knife’s edge, its only a matter of time before you fail to live up to their expectations - and that’s even if there’s enough of them to even be able to support a journalist’s career to begin with!
Catering to the mainstream segment will usually cause you to fall on the former’s bad-side anyway, as they unleash a torrent of vitriol and hate at the journalists for not focusing on whatever manufactured outrage is de jour at the moment (previously woke, now DEI).
