First I've heard of this, glad Valve does such a good job with warranty coverage.

“I checked mine and it happened to me as well. Oh no,” posted someone else.

Truly epic tier reporting by Kotaku.

Frankly, this is to be expected. Are Kotaku's corporate taskmasters not converting the site from a news/investigative portal to a generic stop for game guides?

Edit: answered my own question and it is yes. Yes they are.

Also quality overall has decreased a lot. Some months ago I started seeing news gathered from random reddit posts as in the worst journalism ever. That’s sad, apart from the site you linked, only a couple more (Aftermath comes to mind) seems to remain as good ones for gaming news.

I liked aftermath until they started being contrarian for the fun of it. Also their weird "Palworld promotes slavery" shit

So you're saying it was never about ethics in gaming journalism?

Kotaku has been parroting Reddit posts for years. Total bottom of the barrel “journalism”
