3h 47min, aug 28, 2014 y - Gamers are Dead

Description:

Seven "Gamers are Dead" articles are published by separate gaming journalism outlets, including Kotaku, Gamasutra, RockPaperShotgun, and Destructoid. The articles decry gamers, gamer culture, and the gamer lifestyle. Over the course of four days, the number of articles would increase to fourteen. The fact that most of articles were published within hours of each other caused many gamers to grow suspicious that several gaming journalism outlets were colluding with each other and attempting to push a singular narrative.
