I saw the Second Wind announcement on YT and thought, “Oh shit, this isn’t gonna be good.” And it’s not. That’s damning. Frost is one of the most thoughtful, intelligent, eloquent, and insightful voices in the industry. I find it hard to believe that he’d walk out of what has been, on the surface, a smashing success (and a huge fuck-you to the corporate zombies that have taken over games media) without very good reason. And it’s ironic that the reason appears to be Nick, whose firing prompted the whole team to walk from Escapist in solidarity.
