minus-squareJerkface (any/all)@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up16·edit-213 days agoI know it is considered best practice to use the verbatim title, but I will always edit in relevant details that are omitted for clickbait purposes. Such as the title of the game instead of, “This city builder.”
minus-squareglimse@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up7·13 days agoGaming websites are soooo bad about that. It should be a rule for all gaming news communities that the title must include the game name. I’d like to read about cool upcoming games but I will never click a headline like this.

minus-squareGrayBackgroundMusic@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·13 days agoI like to leave the article title as is, but then add the game afterwards “clickbait description here (actual game title)”
