Fired or resigned, extremely incomplete list:

  • Nick Calandra - Editor-in-Chief
  • Yahtzee Croshaw - Zero Punctuation, Adventure is Nigh, Extra Punctuation
  • Jack Packard - Adventure is Nigh
  • Amy Campbell - Adventure is Nigh, 3 Minute Reviews
  • KC Nwosu - Adventure is Nigh, 3 Minute Reviews
  • Jesse Galena - Adventure is Nigh, 3 Minute Reviews
  • Sebastian Ruiz - Cold Take, Stuff of Legend
  • JM8 - Editor, Design Delve
  • Darren Moody - Columnist
  • Marty Sliva - 3 Minute Review

IP of Zero Punctuation belongs to Escapist, so that is dead as of now.

Well, good luck keeping the lights on without Yahtzee, he’s been the sole reason 90% of your audience even existed in the first place.

It’s more like 100%. The escapist is yahtzee. Was, rather. Now it’s a logo, a url, and a back catalog.

On the bright side, the entire team has banded together to launch “Second Wind”. Their new discord is popping and there will be a livestream tomorrow detailing the team’s plan going forward

Gonna be honest, since it seemed like Yahtzee was the only one who pulled in views I kind of always assumed he was like the channel owner? You know “Yahtzee’s shenanigans and he funds his friends trying to do stuff hoping something will stick”

But I’m just a super casual but long term watcher. I watch every zero punctuation, and like… yeah that’s it. Been doing that for a decade.

Wild they managed to piss off the reason people care about them.

Yeah I’ve been subbed for… dearie me, ten years? Basically only for zero punctuation. I watched it when I was too poor to buy all the games I wanted and I got a kick out of him roasting games I couldn’t afford as hot trash.
