Kotaku

This article is a stub. You can help by expanding it.

Kotaku is a notorious video game news website and the literal embodiment of everything that is wrong with gaming journalism. Interlaced between editorial posts about their daily lives, their kids, their personal cosplay galleries, and irrelevant jokes that have nothing to do with gaming, they occasionally publish a news story. 9 times out of 10, this news story is always a thinly veiled attempt at pushing their liberal, pro-feminist, pro-homosexual agenda onto a class of people whose only real concern in life is how much Mountain Dew they have left in the fridge.

The general consensus is that Kotaku is the bastard lovechild of video games and tumblr, and that the child has Fragile X Syndrome and a megaphone glued to its mouth.

Userbase

Posters on Kotaku can be classified into two subgroups: Beta males, and gamer girls who think playing Flappybird during their college classes puts them a step above casual. It is very easy to get removed from commenting on the site, as any contrarian opinion is swiftly deleted and nullified with an IP ban.

The users and editors on Kotaku are very adamant in asserting that video games are now considered to be a cornerstone of popular culture, despite the fact that the entire industry has been on a steady decline for well over a decade. Also prevalent is that the users dismiss any criticism the site receives from the outside as being meritless since Kotaku identifies itself as a blog, despite the fact that they do report the news and are invited to press conferences and other news media related events.

If you suck enough dick, you are awarded with a gold star by your name, which hopefully will have the same final result as the stars passed out during World War 2.

Criticism

Due to Kotaku's complete lack of journalist integrity, many reputable sources dismiss Kotaku as a worthless tabloid. Konami went as far as banning Kotaku editors from their release parties, noting that they are essentially useless and counter-productive to have around.

Kotaku is on the forefront of pushing the feminist agenda onto the video game industry, making claims such as gender-bias in the workforce as well as blatant sexism in the games themselves. These ideas have spread far and helped paved the road for scam artists like Anita Sarkeesian to further involve feminists in a subject they have no care for other than to spread their outdated message of gender equality on every facet of human civilization.
