Mainstream Video Game Reviews (Especially pre-release versions) are often based on a timed demo, a curated vertical slice of content, or an entirely separate build of the game. This may seem (on the surface) to be of no consequence but when the reviews are designed around a product that is being altered exclusively for the benefit of media, while flaws, and drawbacks are being hidden away, it creates a problem of trust, and authenticity.

Who trusts them??
I remember I read enough books about journalism (I wanted to become a one), and when I turned pages about game journalism it was only about dumb stupid fools. Even journalists consider this side of journalism as a truly pit of tar, as a worm hole. That is why to trust it is no need to do, just play and understand.
Usually I ask friends about a game, but mostly I play indie or not shared (unpopular) games, so I don't need any recommendations, except for installation, manual, walkthrough, etc.
