I don't want to shade this dude specifically, bc this was asked in perfectly good faith, but the last few weeks have taught me a lot of why many commenters hate games journalists. They assume we're all living the DREAM.
I think a thread is in order to burst that bubble.
For starters: I'm not even sure this is clear to a lot of folks, but for most big games sites, even though you might see 10-20 names doing content over the course of a month, only 5-7 of them will be full time staff.
The vast majority of content is freelance. It kinda has to be.
