Life, The Universe And Gaming: Lessons On Bad Practices In Gaming

Life, The Universe And Gaming: Lessons On Bad Practices In Gaming

It has been brought to my attention that my columns have a tendency to take too long to introduce a point, and then take too long to conclude that point. In an effort to appease these critics, harsh though they may be, I’ve decided to write this column in a style more befitting of what is expected of me.

Let’s begin.

    You cannot decry or condemn bad practices (for example, game preorders) and then perpetuate those bad practices yourself.

    It devalues your argument, and makes you look like a hypocrite.

    Be the change you want to see in the world, or sit down and shut up.
