Shows mysteriously gone from escapistmagazine.

[Mylinkay Asdara]

Doraleous and Associates has a kickstarter going right now to get a second season paid for, they are on their own thing right now and have a Facebook and YouTube also. Here http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1587328364/doraleous-and-associates - and I know this is mentioned in at least two threads about now, but as someone else has said: the more coverage the better.

As others have stated, Extra Credits made a move after some falling out here.

Not sure what other series you're interested in OP as ? tells me little. Google is very helpful in finding where things have moved to if you're looking for something specific and it actually went somewhere instead of being simply discontinued.

Edit: Escapist ate my post derp.
Sweet! Thanks buddy

Her sound has definitely changed! Nice to see someone else still remembers her.

What was that one where the porn actors were playing D&D? That was kinda funny

That was I Hit It With My Axe, and it was pretty awesome to watch. I know they have a Facebook page but I'm not sure if they're still doing episodes elsewhere or not. As far as I know though you can still watch the archived episodes on the escapist.

As for a show I miss that disappeared, even though I can still watch the old episodes in the escapist archives, I'd have to say there was actually something endearing about Top 5 With Lisa Foiles. I know I'm making myself a target for ridicule, but that show was usually entertaining, even when it was biased or a bit ridiculous in its choice and rankings of characters/games/etc.

Change? Oh no! As a member of the general gaming and music populace I am terrified of and angered by change!
well I'll have lots of catching up to do then. Years of catching up to do. And I'm glad to see that I'm not the only person that liked her! I remember she didn't get much love from the members of the site at the time.

Who was that woman the Escapist contracted because they thought vacuous girls with nice breasts but nothing of interest to say would generate hits if they were allowed to make pointless lists?

Lisa Foiles. I remember because I just happened to stumble upon this [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qekBpZt1co&list=PLCA0D1BA4B631FF03] while browsing through David Jaffe's twitter.

I also recall the only warning I ever got on here was for saying that she looked like a harlequin with all of that makeup caked on her face.

Holy shit, all this time I've had the Escapist big chief Susan Arendt and former Escapist music girl Rebecca Mayes as the same person. I don't know when or how I got it mixed up but I thought that girl that did the music video's stopped making them because she was taking over a new position as chief editor of the Escapist.

Rebecca Mayes was always one of interest to me, particularly after I found out that she was doing a gig in one of my local pubs not all that long ago.

Also, though it's still on the sight, I miss Doomsday Arcade, that stuff was comic gold.

Well, the music linked on her website is definitely still her, but it's not videogame-oriented, and it seems... I don't know, less bubbly? More serious. But still absolutely fantastic.
Especially after she had the audacity to criticize Yahtzee in any way, form, or fashion. That video got a couple new comments fairly recently, if I remember correctly.

Yes, grrr! Change is bad! Everyone should make the exact same game and release the exact same album every couple of years! Then, and only then, will I be content! Hahah.

Extra Credits left due to financial disputes.
Doraleous went on hiatus while John Etheridge did a side project, and their contract lapsed, or something similar.
The ones that made me the saddest were the loss of De-Rez, and Unforgotten Realms. (Half of you probably won't know what those are, damn kids!)

There are a few that still remember...

I still miss Unforgotten Realms. It was an absolutely fantastic series. The creator had so many various troubles, it's such a shame.

Yeah, Unforgotten Realms was great. What's good to hear is that he started a successful Kickstarter for an UF multiplayer RPG game, so UR isn't gone just yet.

Aaawwww I like her bubbly-ness. Her voice is still amazing so I'll deal
Crazy fanboys be crazy immature fanboys, what'cha gonna do right?

Well no, no, no! If they keep releasing the same stuff all the time we'd all have to criticize them for getting stale and demand that they release something new! And when that happens nobody will buy the new stuff because it's different and we'll all just say it sucks!

Tis the cycle of a game/music "enthusiast's" existence!

Unforgotten Realms was on Escapist?!?!??! Sucks that it's gone then, it's awesome.

Lisa Foiles wasn't bad the show was kind of bland at times though...

I want more Drinking Games!!!! It was sadly retired though.

Critisize Yahtzee? Wasn't it far more of an affectionate ribbing than a real attack? Or did i miss something? OR did I misunderstand your post? That a lot of question marks I've got in this post...?

I always though it was an affection loaded gag but like I said, crazy fanboys be crazy immature fanboys.

There are still shades of it, but not in all of the songs like there used to be. I might actually prefer some of these song.
Like, in her old songs/videos, she knew what she was doing was somewhat silly, even if it was a fairly serious song. But now she's a "proper" musician and her cheerful songs are cheerful and her serious songs are serious. Like "Don't Lose Your Head" from the Epic Win, sort of.

Ignore them.

Yeah, never understood that. Although a couple of genre shifts were too much for me to handle.
So, as long as Miss Mayes stays out of freestyle rapping or yodeling or what-have-you, I'm content. Haha.

Oh okay, I get what you mean.

But they're so much fun to laugh at

I duuno man, I might be up for some freestyle yodeling from Ms. Mayes.

They use to do reviews of anime on here. What ever happened to that?
