Web Content Apolitical or Right Leaning (anti-Social Activist) Games Journalism

[Husky_Khan]

Anyone have any good recommendations on gaming news and journalism that are generally apolitical in their content or even right leaning, or at least contrary to the current progressive social activist trends in gaming and tech journalism?

Now granted, many gaming websites and the like might not be preaching Social Activism every article (like many gaming/journalism websites) but by going there your still supporting their anti-gamer agenda overall. Like for example I'm generally down with most coverage from CNet and while they're not as cringey partisan as a Kotaku or Verge they still have a strong bias and contempt for many gamers and their opinions including writing poor quality hitpieces on "scary" rival Youtube gaming commentators.

Inside Gaming’s Latest Revolt Against The Social Justice Left

Just one day after the #VoxAdpocalypse, tech journal CNET used similar tactics to go after the Quartering’s advertisers in a shockingly pointed hit piece.

So any recomendations or suggestions? Bonus for ones who aren't video platform/Youtube based but traditional style gaming news websites.

Few really good ones from top of my head:

Niche Gamer

The premiere enthusiast gaming and culture site for niche and unique stuff from across the globe.

nichegamer.com

Space Game Junkie

Space Game Junkie is a love letter to space gaming. With a weekly podcast, regular content updates, a vibrant community and much more, Space Game Junkie connects fans and developers alike. Come visit today!

More industry oriented rather than game reviews:

Upper Echelon Gamers

Upper Echelon LLC is a gaming company specializing in community development and event management. Channel video content includes guides, livestreams, comment...

Bellular News

I'll second Upper Echelon, and add in LegacyKillaHD, who does great coverage of Cyberpunk, in particular.

 

[Doomsought]

Gamer's Nexus on youtube is more about PC gaming hardware than software, but they are apolitical as it gets.

 

[Shipmaster Sane]

When "are all white men evil" and "should any female heterosexuality be displayed in entertainment" are unironic political arguments between the masses, there is no such thing as apolitical.

Cool beans.

Did you have any recommendations then?

Blue's News - All the carnage that's fit to post!

www.bluesnews.com

Blue News. If your just looking for a gaming (and related) news aggregator then this is your website of choice. It's basically a gamer nerd newswire.

Gaming News and Reviews | TechRaptor

TechRaptor is your home for latest game guides, gaming news and gaming reviews, with content across every platform, genre, and both AAA and Indie Gaming.

techraptor.net

Tech Raptor is a large and broad gaming and technology website whose journalism seems rather fairly decent and does a pretty good job of just offering gaming focused news and reviews without excessive editorialization. Like what a gaming/tech website should be like.

DualShockers

Gaming News, Features, Tips, Reviews and Opinion from the team at DualShockers. Anything and Everything Gaming.

www.dualshockers.com

Dual Shockers is like the above two but has more console gaming and 'gaming culture' news as opposed to tech stuff.

Hardcore Gamer - No Nonsense, Just Games

Hardcore Gamer is the serious gamer’s source for PS5, Xbox Series X, PS4, Xbox One, PC, Switch reviews, previews, news, features, guides and videos.

hardcoregamer.com

Similar to the above two but I never really checked out Hardcore Gamer. But I've heard other people say it's a pretty good website. Apparently just like it sasys in the title, very refreshing.

Home

The Escapist is an outlet dedicated to providing our readers and viewers with smart coverage of video games, movies, tv shows and everything geek culture.

www.escapistmagazine.com

Escapist has a stronger editorial vibe to its articles, inserting more opinion but a fair bit more ambivalent then most other gaming websites. Plus they have hired pro-Gamergate writers. (though notable Nazi Bob Chipman writes for them).

PC Gamer

PC Gamer is your source for exclusive reviews, demos, updates and news on all your favorite PC gaming franchises.

www.pcgamer.com

For PC Gaming specifically... I do like PC Gamer even though it's super generic corporate feeling news. Still works for me since they don't preach to me.

Home

PC Invasion - Daily PC game news and features including news, reviews, previews, interviews, articles, and a PC gaming community.

www.pcinvasion.com

For a more independent website, I'd recommend PC Invasion. Just good PC gaming journalism.

Eh, the other sites might be worth a look, but escapist had their chance and they blew it. Not inclined to give them a third one.

Got a recommendation of Twinfinite as a no-nonsense straightforward gaming website.

Twinfinite

Video Game news, reviews, opinions, guides and videos!
