I understand their points. But to me they do too much rage baits these days that I can't bring myself to watch their stuff. Why would I let my self get angry lol.
Yeah, I agree but given the state of YouTube and the fact GN has an actual office, lab and employees, I also understand why they have no choice but to the play the game at least a bit. YouTube has repeatedly cut the rev rates to the point that even fairly large channels are still under pressure if they have meaningful recurring expenses.
Basically, I just skip the rage bait and watch the good stuff. I also love that GN still publishes print articles, which has essentially zero upside for them.
Reality has both negatives and positives. Gamers Nexus clearly lie on the other side of the spectrum where they overwhelmingly choose the negative stuffs, hence rage baits.
I cannot name any positives from the past twelve months in the field of PC hardware, that Gamers Nexus operates in and around with their work. Perhaps I’ve overlooked something?
Yes; while that doesn’t have bearing on business or technical matters of the PC hardware market, it’s certainly positive-feelgood content that the comment I originally replied to might appreciate as good TV!
GN aren't the rage baiters. It's the companies that are handing this content to them on a silver platter that are. Steve and team have done excellent work over the years. Have things turned more directed at the enshittification? Of course, that's what they're reporting on. He's been iced out of pre-reviews for ending up on these corporate naughty lists plenty of times. But Steve is at least saying it out loud and as it is. Just look at the DRAM cartel v2 and AMD going against their own corporate & political donations policies. Sorry, but Steve isn't the rage baiter in this story.
