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
Good scoop, you, thanks!
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.
