So this is just a curious inquiry. Why was there the name change of Yahtzee's reviews? I kinda liked Zero Punctuation over Extra punctuation.

I don't think it's a name change. Extra Punctuation is just what Yahtzee called his article that came as an addendum to his Overlord II review in Zero Punctuation.

There was a name change? When was this, and was this for the video series or what?

It's just the name of an add-on article to the week's ZP. So far, the only one is for Overlord II.

That's what confused me. It looks like they just kind of redid the standard logo for him. Though I mean it's not a big deal or anything, I'm a man of continuity, and The Escapist just threw a surprise curve ball at me.

Not a name change, buddy. Extra Punctuation is just a text article rather than a video. It kind of adds on extra thoughts that he might have come up with after he had released the video or just didn't have time for.

This. Its the written supplement to his usual video. Personally I think its a great idea. 4 minutes of video isn't a lot of time, and a written review can be more detailed.

They're different things. Zero Punctuation is the name of the video reviews, Extra Punctuation is the name of his articles.

I would have thought people would have noticed that.

Not a change. It's still Zero Punctuation. Extra Punctuation was just an article he wrote to share some of his nibbling thoughts after the Overlord review. Believe me, ZP is not going anywhere.

And, seeing as how it's in text, the title "Extra" Punctuation highlights that yes, he actually does make use of punctuation marks like any reasonable fellow. It's just that you don't notice it when he's going off on high speed for his video reviews. (Which is called Zero Punctuation mainly because of his signature rambling style.)

Also, yes, it's an add-on.

It isn't. Extra Punctuation were some added notes on his review of Overlord 2.
