I’m looking for sites not owned by Fandom, Ziff Davis, Tencent, etc., who still cover news and reviews.
I stuck with Giantbomb for years, even after Red Ventures acquired it, but, like others, drifted away from the site when its core members left/got fired.
I followed Easy Allies for awhile, but after Bowman moved on, it wasn’t the same.
Anyone have any recommendations?
If you are okay with Vox Media Group, I’ve been pretty happy with Polygon. They even have RSS!
I think Mike Mahardy from Polygon is alright, but generally I find their content leans into social commentary more than I want in a gaming outlet. I respect that some people want that, and I’m glad these sites exist for them.
I haven’t really noticed that…? But, maybe that’s just because whatever’s being said “agrees” with me or isn’t in the articles I choose to read from them (?)
