Fucking hell, he's been with them for close to 20 years, basically half of his working life. He's been there through a lot of shit too, and basically kept The Escapist going through setbacks, cuts, and more.

I would have assumed he'd be largely untouchable there, so to make a decision that led him to resign immediately is absolutely wild.

To be fair, I quite liked Extra Punctuation, and I've always thought he would now be recognisable enough to either go alone, or actually be in front of a screen without animation. This could work out really well for him.

I don't like ZP but EP is quite good imo.

I haven't browsed in years but do I understand correct that Yahtzee does both shows? Is the "actual" punctuation literally him talking slower with pauses and such?

[-] Redonkulation@lemmy.world 16 points 8 months ago

Extra Punctuation was the slower, slightly longer format videos that were more musing about broad industry trends and gaming history. It was great.

Wow, I wish I'd stuck around for those over the years. Thanks.
