It's funny that Aftermath is writing about bad game journalism practices when they themselves have an initial "you must register to read our articles," but then after registration, hit you with an actual hard paywall after a couple of articles.
If they want to paywall their content, that is their prerogative, but they could at least be up-front about it, instead of only telling me about it after I went through the trouble of creating an account.
I think there may be some room for improvement on messaging there.
