    By now we probably need a concept like “grief in late stage capitalism” or some such thing: The constant mourning for lost achievements/(art) works/creative teams/… because of capitalist greed.

      It’s our fault. When’s the last time you bought a magazine? The last Game Informer I bought was at an airport over 20 years ago.

      Although I think they could have at least tried to salvage it by letting everyone know months earlier to give nostalgia fans a chance to save it. Make it Game Informer Quarterly or even Game Informer 2024.
