Vox Media has sold Polygon, the gaming site it founded in 2012 as "a new kind of website, built on new technology, backed by a new kind of media company."
A bunch of sites that have seen a noticeable downturn in quality since being acquired by Valnet. XDA and Android Police have really gone to shit lately. GameRant and Collider too. The Valnet guys founded Brazzers, if that gives you any idea of how shady they are.
Them owning OpenCritic was a big surprise to me. Wasn’t that site founded specifically because MetaCritic was shit? Might as well just use MetaCritic if both are run by assholes lol.

RIP Polygon.
