Skewed and Reviewed have written an Opinion Piece covering issues in the gaming industry, how current issues were issues years ago, and what can be done to help restore consumer trust.
Nothing. It's up to the gamers to stop consuming content from companies that they don't agree with.
How do you know if you agree with it or not unless you play it? Which without conventions forces gamers to rely on trailers. Perhaps Demos should be made more frequently. But companies need to do better as well.
But is that not what they have now? Tons of gameplay or are you talking about watching actual gamers play it versus the trailers and streams? The big issue is that some companies pay streamers and influencers and they create content but for me; that is hardly a fair, unbiased, and factual look at a game.
They usually are attached to the money sadly. It would be nice to have gamers in charge but you have so much money invested that business people are needed. Hence the issue; you need people who know business but are also gamers who know have an eye to the community. It sounds simple in theory that if you give gamers quality games that they want to play; money will be made. But that is not always so.

A famous actor from Starship Troopers has showered praise on Helldivers 2 and said he is open to the idea of playing General Brasch.
Pretty sick of seeing these mature contented renditions of Mario with eye roll phrases.
@ below
Nintendo is very iffy about tossing intellectual properties to the wolves these days. The problem with Mario in film is this -- American's love talking heads. It's talk, talk, talk and bang, bang, bang followed by a huge explosion. That's the American audience.
Mario doesn't talk much. So what's left? I'll tell you what, the above film. Something so incredibly dreadful to watch that it completely ruins the Mario legacy. Mario will have to be handled with kid gloves should he under go a big Hollywood budgeted release.
If not -- It's going to be bad.
I think it would b interesting to see a Mario movie no matter what
Nintendo and Dreamworks would be great!
WOW
