Yahtzee (and others) walked out of (an already strained relationship with) The Escapist - something that was already happening years ago, but they had apparently sorted things out with a new contract. As he does not own Zero Punctuation, his own weekly games-review show, ZP is effectively dead. Or at least, under that name.

Poor bastard still doing that sctick?

This reminds me, I saw, something recently on EpicMealTime and some other channel that's been poking fun at the decline of AVGN.

I wonder if this was something the new owners expected when they axed the editor, or if they've been caught with their pants down. I don't follow any other content from the Escapist beyond ZP.
