Pcgamer Reviews 

PCGamer out of touch...

I used to like their reviews and articles but it seems they have a bunch of new hires recently that just post trash. The whole agenda pushing with assassins creed and other games and presenting opinions as fact is totally unprofessional.

I don't know why Ubisoft need to culturally appropriate Japanese culture but you posting articles supporting it makes you part of the problem. Out of the entirety of Japanese history where they could showcase a vast number of Japanese samurai, they pick the only one who is non-Japanese. I don't care about skin colour. This makes no logical sense. This would be equivalent to picking a European in Assassins creed Origins... It would make no sense. THAT is why people have a problem with it and you trying to make people look bad because they are highlighting this is nothing short of unprofessional. No wonder no one listens to your reviews anymore because all you do is trash on people who dont have the same opinion you do. YOU are the problem.

Fascism - The suppression of anothers opinion or the attempt to belittle an opposing belief.

If was possible to give zero stars I would. They have clickbait articles where you dont really know what you reading about. Their review are just utterly bad and sometimes I feel they are payed to hate on certain games. Worst of all is the ad spam on their site. It is impossible to read anything cause ads popping up everywhere. To all of you who are working there..Just quit and go work at McDonald's. With two years of practice you might be good enough to flip burgers.

Habitual Liar Sellouts since the 1990s. Dont buy there magazines they have been long currupted. DO NOT TRUST PCGAMER!!

Compare the players reviews to PCGamers reviews regarding almost any title this year and you will see a massive disparency between what gamers want and what these reviewers have just been told to say to stay on the good side of the fence. Yes I'm talking about Warhammer 40k Space Marines 2 getting a lower score than Star Wars Outlaws. That's just the latest example.

Next to IGN these guys are the absolute worst at reviewing video games.

Slandering and biased reviews. This website should not exist anymore, they serve no purpose.

pathetic reviews all buyed hope the get all jobeless soon

The author didn't play the game enough to get past the initial phase of learning how to read the games movement.

They disliked the way a character in the game was portrayed, and rolled with that opinion as the narrative to give the game a negative review. If they allowed them selves to accept that singular flaw and move on to actually playing the game, they may have been able to learn how to read the games movements instead of claiming the game to be "information overload". I question if the author is actually a gamer or they are just strictly a writer that was hired based only on their writing merit and not if they actually play games.

Article titled: marvel-rivals-closed-beta-is-aggressively-bad-and-turns-my-favourite-marvel-villain-into-a-glorified-babysitter

It was my "GOTO" site for video game news. Now it is full of woke activists like Kotaku, Polygon or Eurogamer.

It's impossible to take this gamer mags seriously. Time and again they have reviewed trash as if it were gold and vice versa. Recently they rated a certain game as a "9/10" and "their best work ever"... But they published the review before the game servers had even been up long enough to get through the campaign.
Then they compounded that error with a skewed article about one tiny mission in particular in that DLC that the playerbase absolutely hates.
I never thought I would see an article more biased than a Forbes article on a game, but here we are.

I remember using to read Pcgamer when I was young. I bought the magazine quite often, if, at first for the free game/demo published along with it, then for the reviews and articles about video games. That was then. Now, most articles are hit pieces and woke garbage. Tabloid journalism, in many cases because of keyboard warriors that hate video games and wished they worked for ourwoke.com

Absolutely terrible standards of English. Awful grammar, glaring errors that scream of a publication that has entirely abandoned the concept of proof reading, and a total ignorance of even the basics of structuring a sentence. And even were this not true, to call the content this site puts out "filler" is an insult to the word.

Invaded bt woke political garbage. Never go on there site.

The first and the best, now the woke journos have invaded it, lowered it to a poor quality site with political far left ideology disguised as games journalism.

In the vast expanse of online gaming journalism, one would hope to find platforms that prioritize fairness, integrity, and authentic representation. Sadly, amidst the sea of publications, there exists one online gaming magazine that has veered off course, sacrificing these principles in favor of an ill-conceived embrace of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI).

From the moment one delves into the magazine's content, it becomes apparent that objectivity has been relegated to the backseat, while the pursuit of DEI accolades takes center stage. Game reviews, once a bastion of impartial critique, now read like hastily assembled tributes to titles that check the right boxes for diversity, regardless of their actual quality or merit.

The editorial content of the magazine fares no better, as it appears more concerned with virtue signaling than with fostering genuine dialogue and understanding. Articles, rather than offering nuanced perspectives, seem to regurgitate the same tired narratives, promoting DEI agendas at the expense of critical thinking and intellectual diversity.

Perhaps the most egregious offense committed by this publication is its blatant colorwashing of stories. Instead of authentically showcasing the experiences and achievements of marginalized communities within the gaming industry, the magazine reduces diversity to a mere marketing ploy, cynically exploiting identity for the sake of appeasing DEI metrics.

As a discerning reader and a staunch advocate for fairness and integrity in gaming journalism, it is disheartening to witness the descent of this once-respected publication into the quagmire of DEI tokenism. By prioritizing ideology over impartiality and pandering to the demands of social justice warriors, the magazine has betrayed the trust of its readers and abandoned the principles that should underpin ethical journalism.

Instead of fostering genuine representation and promoting a culture of fairness and meritocracy, it has chosen the path of least resistance, sacrificing integrity on the altar of political correctness. As consumers, we deserve better—a gaming media landscape that upholds the values of honesty, integrity, and authentic representation. Until then, I'll be seeking my gaming insights from sources that prioritize substance over ideology.

They protect SBI, a company that is basically evil, racist and shouldn't exist in the first place, due to their relations with them.

They lie about how Steam's TOS works, smear the creator of a certain curator list, and conveniently omit the cancel campaign started by SBI employees that got them locked from Twitter.

They also fail to mention the well publicized and documented racist, doxing and DDOS'ing habits of SBI's employees.

This site is completely unreadable without an ad blocker. Ad on top, auto-play video that drops down into the middle of the screen, ads on bottom sometimes stacked on top of each other, another full-screen ad after every paragraph, and more often than not the mid-article ads cover the entire next paragraph after which of course there's another ad. I wish they'd concentrate more on the quality of their writing and less on shoving hundreds of ads down your throat. I get they have to make money but there's a point at which you're no longer a journalism outlet, you're just a billboard.

Terrible reviews. I'm convinced they're just getting paid by AAA developers to make the worst games the highest ratings possible.

Such a scam. The whole industry is a scam today. We're lied to, sold a steaming pile of dog sh*te wrapped in a fancy bow and that it's the best game in history, only to part with $60 of our hard earned money for a game that'll sit in the library unfinished for the rest of our lives.

Politics and hate.
They jump on arty pieces like they're the second coming and hate anything mainstream.
They write entire reviews without ever mentioning optimization, bugs or system specs. They are clearly in favour of developers/publishers that pay for extended ad campaigns.
They'll express their hatred for Elon Musk or Trump as if it has anything at all to do with PC gaming.
They will talk about sexism as if it only applies to females. Or racism that only applies to minorities.
Their writers (not just mods,) actively troll and censor comments and commentors. Or shut down discussion completely if they know their content is unpopular. They also shadow ban people for disagreeing. (Hateful or otherwise.)
PCGamer used to be my one stop shop for all gaming news. Now? I hate PCGamer. They are ruining gaming with their biased opinions and hit pieces, poor reviews and hipster views.
