Plus it's hard to find a major games journalism web site that isn't getting paid by the developers or publishers for good reviews, or threatened with blacklisting.
- benologist 11y agoIt's also very easy to find gameplay videos and see the game for yourself.
- Zikes 11y agoNot so, in the case of Nintendo. They've instituted a strict policy against posting long-form gameplay content unless you agree to monetize the video and send them 40% of the proceeds. If you don't agree, they'll submit a DMCA claim against the video.
- michaelbuddy 11y agoit's not really necessary to have a long form let's play video to assess the gameplay anyway, but just going by what I see on youtube, I don't think nintendo is actually enforcing that rule there.
