Not bad to have an 'escape plan' ready at all times, the fact that it's happened in less than a month and looks this professional means it'll be a smooth transition for his audience.

The government hates small businesses, so I can understand why he'd rather be an employee with taxes withheld from his paycheck instead of dealing with estimated quarterly payments and itemized expenses.

Uncastrated Yahtzee might mention how this game was co-written by SweetBaby. No hard feelings but there's no room in the culture war for those firing rubber bullets. Bye.

Same with the new Spider-Man game. With Alan Wake 2 it feels like they protected the Alan Wake sections while the whole “Swedish Chocolate Roll” Saga sections are utter trash. So much shows that she wasn’t supposed to be the in the game it hurts. She’s utter brainless in her actions and delivery.

Wasn't really following it so came across it by accident today in my recommendations. For reference despite how long The Escapist has existed, it only currently has 1.19 million.

I like the new 'legally different and separate' Zero Punctuation and seems they still have cold takes too from it, but safe to say the Escapist is fully dead with this.

People rather check in the channel once a week for zero punctuation than subscribe and get subscription feed filled with 10 videos of junks nobody wants to watch

Literally why I'm so reluctant to pull the subscribe trigger on anyone. So few channels consistently have videos that I would always want to watch. I think with my 20-year-old account I have fewer than 15 subscriptions.

Should've called themselves the Escapees.

Protip: Puns made out of spite don't make for lasting careers

That's definitely true. Everyone would be fatigued by the constant reminder pretty quickly.

I like how they just gave the character glasses and then kept going.

They are probably planning to use the YouTube ad revenue to try and buy out the otherwise worthless ZP IP from the escapist.

Smart move.
