I thought the gaming world was over the sexist thing; apparently I was wrong
I'd hate to tell her that the gaming world still isn't entirely over it 25 years later

You don't truly grow up until you realize Pelit was never actually that good.
What do you mean? I remember one issue having a comic strip where the main character went out and killed every Finland Swedish person with a katana because he misunderstood a quest in an RPG or something
Incredible comedy
No, I really like reading ”everything except the stuff I like is bad and for children” columns from a condescending boomer chud for 30+ years.
If I ever come across old issues of Pelit in my parents' house or something I'll have to see just how awful their takes and politics are to my adult brain
Honestly, all the really bad takes were on their forum, where they were assumedly free of the shackles of any journalistic pretense
That forum was where I found out about 9/11 was happening, though.
I can't even imagine how bad those forums must have been, especially if they had been around for that long
