This is potentially terrible news. I love Eurogamer and RPS, if they get sold to a more greedy network like Fandom the quality of content there will go downhill fast.

    I have (and still do) use EG for most of my news, but that has taken a slide in quality over the years. In general, they’re not receptive to developmental feedback either - though I’m not prepared to leave the blame at the editorial or mod staff door on that one when you’ve got a company like ReedPop coming in with a clear agenda to make more money, and leaving so soon.

    My main concern is for DigitalFoundry - genuinely one of the best, most entertaining, and in-depth spin off channels out there.

      DF Direct is my podcast of choice when driving to/from work. Their video content and analysis is always my number one watch.

      I’d be gutted if they ruined DF.

        Isn’t DF independent, and they just publish articles on Eurogamer? In that case I wouldn’t worry too much about them, right now.
