Movie and video game journalism has gotten so fucking lazy, they just refer to things by other things they're similar to.

"Check out this new souls-like game" or "new game combines Dave the Diver with Stardew Valley."

It's super annoying if you're not familiar with whatever they're referencing.

And every hardware manufacturer's attempt at a mobile gaming device is immediately called a Steam Deck competitor.

It's lazy journalism.
