The fact that influencers are getting custom care packages to be more free marketing for Cyberpunk, while those reviewers who will likely take this game to task still haven’t gotten code for a giant fucking game is honestly emblematic of why we don’t trust influencers

This is not to say that influencers inherently *can’t* be critical of those they partner with, but it’s hard to believe that when the partnership between the company & them is so apparent while critics & even GUIDES WRITERS are getting shut out til the last minute

Also “influencer,” it’s literally in the name. Like sorry, but y’all make money partnering with & advertising for companies ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯
