"Dream Daddy is coming to Switch." should have been the title of the article, but that wouldn't have been good clickbait, right? Also, "One Of The Internet's Favorite Games"? What absolute nonsense.
Perhaps there's a reason why people keep losing trust in the news that they read. Nobody likes being manipulated and lied to. It's a vicious cycle: the more those fake news hurt trust, the more egregious the fake news have to be to bait people, the more they hurt trust.
Now we've reached the point where the title claims "Nintendo Switch Is Getting One Of The Internet's Favorite Games" and then it's a game that absolutely nobody cares about. This means that "GameStop News" is completely pointless, because the title of the article is in no way related to the content. As such, I'll now use a blocker to get rid of the "Gamestop News" element on GameFAQs and won't be baited by this shameless clickbait anymore.
> A game that promised the "world's fastest platinum Trophy"
> you could earn its platinum Trophy in under 20 minutes.
20 minutes? Psh, when I saw the title of this article, I thought it was about Aabs Animals. That one lets you get the platinum trophy by leaving the game running for 5.25 minutes.
Not really. The demand is so high, GameStop is selling all the Switches they can get from Nintendo. Then they started bundling it with a lot of games and they're STILL selling all the Switches they can get from Nintendo. The only difference is that they now sold a lot extra items by forcing them onto people with a bundle.
You could argue that this move is not ethically sound, but business-wise, it's a great move.
Yeah, I rarely even post here. I'm from GameFAQs and the only reason why I can post here to begin with is because the sites have been merged, and I only got here in the first place because the link to this article popped up over there and I legit thought that it would tell me what the patch does... only to be disappointed.
Would be cool if it was possible to downvote articles.
lol yeah. I read about the patch somewhere else where they just said that the patch is out but they didn't have any info on it. Then I saw this lolSpot article titled "Zelda: Breath Of The Wild Patch Out Now, Here's What It Does", thinking "oh cool, looks like someone has information on the patch!"
...except that lolspot knows nothing either, but just has some shitty clickbait title to go with it. At least other sites won't lie about not knowing anything yet.
Content: it's unclear what exactly this newest patch does.
What a piss poor excuse of an "article". I wonder what took longer? Writing about ten completely worthless lines, coming up with the idea to write this absolutely useless article or digging up this random screenshot that says nothing?
