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?

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

EP is him doing the same thing, but not as reviews, more generally discussing broad topics regarding games and the industry. I personally prefer it to ZP
