Twitter Account @HardDriveMag retweeted an Article from 2018 about IGN Writer Excited to Start Playing Game He Just Finished Reviewing. Of course, the Blue Check Mark Brigade had to pile on, so lets see what got them going.

A gaming journalist couldn't get through the introductory level of cuphead…. Nothing needs more to be said.
It's true. That's why they are mad.
Disappointed you didn't say "69….. Nice… Thousand subscribers" haha
Hope Hard drive don't delete the tweet
These guys are softer than baby shit. I can't believe they respond to light sarcasm with so many tears.
It’s funny because it’s true, need an example I’d recommend IGN’s Code Vein review as it is so obvious they did not play the game.
Imagine being so privileged with a cushy job that the only thing you have to worry about are a few bozos on Twitter joking about you.
"Beat the game" is a pretty high bar on some of the games out there tho 😉
Other than that kinda clueless why people even read those crappy review sites anymore other than getting some silly material to base videos on.
Hey Alex you should definitely watch DF latest Direct Weekly 13 video when they are talking about Unreal Engine 5 watch the video from 12:10 seconds when Alex pointing at something that you already did in your previous video about UE5 32GB or 64GB ram requirement is just for the editing part not for running the tech demo. Great work btw.👍
RIP xbox. No exclusives. Irrelevant console comfirmed
Nobody has any respect for “games journalists” anymore. Remember when they had knowledge of hardware and would play games through before spewing garbage? Now they hire morons based on being “woke” and wonder why everybody is making fun of them. Don’t hire non-gamers to write game reviews.
This is brilliant satire because rushed reviews or even fake reviews don't help the consumer or even the journalist writing them. A rushed review doesn't say much about a games longevity or e.g. pros and flaws with the story, combat, multiplayer. Plus with games as a service becoming a thing you need may need to update reviews every month with people who have a moderate understanding of a game. For example with some fighting games things can be great then a patch comes along and a character ends up broken which ruins everything. IGN, GameSpot, etc don't touch on these issues it's content creators which. That's why I like many others don't put much value in most games journalists congrats on the 6.9k subs big guy.
Keep pushing forward! We are gonna get you to 69,000.
That tweet earned them my follow, after seeing all the check marks bawling in the replies.
The journalists got completely ratioed here it was fun
Thanks for the content Alex.
