If only every journalism team was as honest and tenacious as the Gamers Nexus folks no matter what the subject matter the world would be a much better place.

Huge respect to them for consistently calling out bs and using their platform to advocate for customers and hold these companies to account.

They have some balls - when you do videos that expose companies like this or the MSI claw you won't get the lucrative sponsorships like LTT

Companies like to sponsor videos like shortcircuit that in the end are ten minutes long ads about a sponsored product

Yes, they do have balls and that is why you should support them.

GN do these kinds of things without sponsors and generally paid with merch or member/Pateron revenue.

they mentioned some issues when reviewing the updated ROG Ally, i was surprised about that - yet of course they continue to love boasting about how great Asus monitors and computers are, because of all the sponsorship money & free product supply

I'd like to watch but something makes me paralyzed when I anticipate the confrontation.
