Why is nothing visible on Gamasutra when JavaScript is disabled?

Question

JavaScript

Site - https://www.gamasutra.com
Even with scripts turned off, all elements on the page are present in the right places, all content is there, no hiding styles are noticed.
But nothing is visible. Only gray background.

More or less like this

Scripts do a lot of extra things. Therefore, by default, they are disabled for me, especially on information sites with articles and the like. Usually some preloader is removed by a simple rule in uBlock Origin - and there are no problems. And there is no preloader here...
