Hmm..I must be only 1 of 4 people left...

I like almost all of the stuff The Escapist gives.
Only exceptions: I hit it with my axe, i do not like that stuff. And i don't watch those movie reviews. And Rebecca Mayes, either. Not that i don't like her work, i just don't care about music that much. And i just plain don't watch those that i dislike. That's the end of that.

 

[TheRightToArmBears]

I know..I just don't like having to wade through all that just to get to ZP or Unskippable.
If I wanted to watch those kinds of vids that are filling up the Videos tab,I'd go over to Youtube.

There are big tabs down the side of the homepage for both ZP and Unskippable. It's not hard to find, really.

 

[Spinozaad]

Having to spend two extra seconds to get to free entertainment?

It's an outrage!

 

[Vrach]

Who doesn't have their own "gimmick"/review/column on The Escapist.
I liked it better when it was Zero Punctuation and Unskippable

Now when you click on the Videos tab,you are deluged with content.A lot of the content I couldn't give 2 **its about..

Don't give two shits about what you don't give two shits about, I am quite interested in a much larger number of videos/reviews/columns on the site. Hell, you didn't even mention Extra Credits and I'd say that's one of the most popular shows bar ZP now.

No offense, but it looks like you're just one of those people that constantly go "see, in my days, things were different" who's so attached to the past and against any possible change, he actually complains when there's a mostly positive one. Don't get me wrong, each to his own, but if you don't like something, just ignore it and move on.

And I'm sorry, 'wading' through stuff to get to ZP/Unskippable? Mate, just throw ZP into a bookmark like I do. Whenever you're coming to the site, go there instead of onto the main page and on the right hand side you have all the 'major' shows with a link to both all or the latest one, Unskippable included. "Problem" solved

I know.. I'm just lamenting the "old" Escapist is gone.

The old escapist was full of assholes

Have a read through the responses in this thread & think about that statement again.

I'm addressing almost everyone here when I say this, the guy's making a perfectly valid point. Stuff like Game Dogs & that article about how hard PC gaming is, that time, money & effort could have gone into something much better.

Pararaptor! You think that the Escapist is full of assholes! I also think this.

Can we...think that it is full of assholes together?

You don't have to wade through anything, there's a column at the right for you to easily choose what you want to watch. Honestly, this seems a little pointless.

 

[mexicola]

Oh noes, we are given a choice! What shall we ever do now.

 

[Estocavio]

I know.. I'm just lamenting the "old" Escapist is gone.

Thats due to its popularity - Popularity = Expansion = Growth = Change.
Though, it isnt as bad as you make out, you just have to do things slightly differently.

 

[Screamarie]

I will admit that I sometimes find it a little difficult to navigate the site. Like I'm not always certain that ZP picture link will lead to the list of ZP videos or the newest ZP and I can't ever find a the proper link for the archive of the Trailers, so maybe the site could be designed a tad bit better (not that the Escapist Team doesn't do an awesome job with the site! I visit at least twice a day) but in the end I love alot of the new stuff. Can't miss Extra Credit, gotta see the new Critical Miss, and I keep a close eye on the video game reviews, waiting for a Susan Arendt one just to have a good laugh. So yeah maybe I can't find what I want instantly, but I wouldn't give up any of it for a little easier access.

 

[Ziadaine_v1legacy]

Bookmark ZP and Unskippable's main pages? That should save you a fair amount of annoyance.

There ya' go. Problem solved.

@Pararaptor, Yay the creepy old woman avatar is back.

@Pararaptor, Yay the creepy old woman avatar is back.

I don't mean to be a nit picker and maybe you already know this, but it bugged me a little. Sorry! Anyways, that's not a creepy old woman. If I'm not mistaken that's the actor Tim Curry as Dr. Frank N Furter from the movie Rocky Horror Picture Show.

 

[Joe Deadman]

Meh I just boomarked the latest videos section and check it around the time the videos I like are released.

unscippable and ZP are ALWAYS on the front page!
So there are no reasons for you to complain.
Unless your so lazy that you can scroll down two clicks, and if you are, then just bookmark the pages with the ZP and Unscippable gallery.

You must be a one in four of a penishead.

Why don't you just bookmark the ZP page. that's what I do, and when I click on the bookmark, I have the new video staring me right in the face every week...

 

[BENZOOKA]

You're talking as if the site was invented to please you and you alone. Other people like other things.

Exactly.

There actually aren't that many sites where all the content is something one will be consuming.

Also, OP's huge problem can be fixed with easily accessible links to Zero Punctuation and Unskippable videos.

 

[WeedyPirate]

You know what i do when i see a video posted that i don't want to watch? I don't watch it. Then i watch some of the other content that i DO enjoy that the escapist posts for free.

'there used to be barely any videos, now those videos are still here but there is MORE content that other people might enjoy, waaah'

is that really a thing?

jeez.

What about extra credits? intelligent, insightful and pretty entertaining. Rebecca Mayes is amusing at times to. In fairness I don't really watch unskippable much, it just feels a bit... devoid of content.
