It’s Exhausting Trying To Read Video Game Website Headlines (aftermath.site)

Every day I wake up in the morning, get on the internet and feel increasingly like Batman trapped in an elaborate puzzle room by the Riddler.

Unfortunately that's not just gaming related news, but all news (and non-news).

It's by design. It leaves you wondering (and ideally click on the article).

What I actually would like to know if journalists, or whoever writes the articles, are picking these headlines consciously or if they're following guidelines. I can imagine both scenarios.

Can't speak for all publications, especially ones as non traditional as game journalism, but what people say over and over again is that the authors don't write the headlines
