What is this I don't even...

[Akira_Tenshi]

She makes one small reference to GW2 and you all brand her a butt-hurt GW2 fan-girl. She makes some fair points, remember the game is in beta, it is unlikely any of it's mechanics and content is perfected yet. If you can't bare the criticism or face the fact that the game may have flaws then you may want to give the beta a miss.

we remember it's in beta. she doesn't seem to know what beta is. and considering she doesn't frame her 'review' in the context of it being a phase 1 beta, i think you're barking up the wrong tree with this argument. better to tell her.

seriously, though. count up the number of times she actually reminds the reader that it's a beta. let me know what you find.

(hint: it's a really really low number)

She sets GW2 as her comparison, and then goes back to reference it multiple times in the article.

It's literally a tribalistic, us vs. them (GW2 vs FFXIV) article.

It's the exact opposite of what real journalism is. It is Video Game Journalism®.

and the ironic part is that she doesn't even play GW2 anymore. nobody does.
