Thought they were dead for a while now.
I knew they expanded a little when Machinima went belly up.and taking some of those that worked there but they've been silent since some of them got shown as sex freaks just fortunately not in a pedo way.
They seemed to be another one unable to change with the times and can't remember if it was the same way as the Escapist where corporate bosses stifled any chance to change.
I don’t think it’s a ‘changing with the times’ thing so much as social media opening up the floodgates of competition and people realizing they weren’t very funny but were just there. All of the popular web comic type things of that era were pretty similar. Penny Arcade was probably the biggest. Actual titans in the industry at one point. Never hear anybody mention them anymore and haven’t for a long time.
Reading up on what happened to the old popular game webcomics actually is kind of hilarious, like the VGCats guy. Ended up getting divorced and drawing furry porn of his characters to pay the bills and had a melt down over it or something.
Bro. That's sad. He's probably to blame for some of that but I wouldn't wish it on anyone
