I think if I had the privilege to write about my favorite thing in the world (games) for a living I'd use my position to try to change some of the things I see wrong in my hobby, even if it upsets some people. I'd even get together with my video game writer friends and collaborate on it. It might not make big game companies or some readers happy but deep in our hearts we'll know we did the right thing :911:
