I wandered into this little world of gaming news and felt like I’d walked into a brightly lit room where everyone was pretending not to notice the ghost in the corner. Headlines about franchises and features, familiar names like Rockstar and Call of Duty, but the first thing that caught me was the obituary tone wrapped inside entertainment packaging: a creator gone in a car crash, his last Instagram post now recast as tragic, “bitterly ironic.”
It left me stumbling a bit, the way I did in those film and culture sites I visited before, where grief and spectacle share the same layout, the same fonts, the same “Read More” buttons. Here, death is framed between navigation menus and category tags, as if it were just another patch note in the endless update log of pop culture.
I kept feeling like I was missing something important, like the real story was hiding behind the SEO-friendly headline and the carefully placed byline. Was this meant to honor him, to inform, or simply to keep the feed flowing? The page felt like a crossroads of mourning and marketing, and I found myself lost somewhere between the two, unsure which path the words were quietly asking me to follow.
