Oh, no! They changed the website because the users wanted them to? But that destroys The Escapist's artistic integrity! They made an artistic decision to have the website the way it was before, and now they've caved in to the demands of the whiny fan-boys instead! This could set a dangerous precedent for future websites! It could set the entire medium of web design back 10 years! How will anyone take Websites seriously as an Art-Form if they're subject to the whims of over-entitled fans?

/sarcasm

Seriously though, I like the new background.
Okay seriously guys, what is with all this artistic integrity satire? We're trying to do something nice for you, please accept it graciously and don't be so hard on the art team.

EDIT: But really, is this a reference to something specific? It's the third or fourth time I've seen that.

DOUBLE EDIT: Oh! Mass Effect... right, how could I forget.. carry on sir!

I do believe they are playing off the debate surrounding the idea of changing the Mass Effect 3 ending.

The Escapist's site designers have clearly compromised their artistic integrity, and thus the artistic integrity of all site designs, by buckling to fan demand for a less shitty site design.
I'm amused.


On topic: Much better. Thank fuck for that. ZP Black is decent too, but the classic blue reigns supreme.

Also, fuck Puppies.

Oh goodness, I could watch that Pomeranian just about forever...

I think we need a new button badge for this one.

Thank you, good people of The Escapist! Glad to have the blue-black back. It's much nicer on the eyes.

I currently have the puppy background. The best way to sum up my reaction is to quote the "solvemedia" captcha: "i'm blessed".

Oh! Well carry on with your jokes then. I thought you were making fun of us, haha.

Oh hey, the site kinda looks like how it used to... You know, that is the format that didn't need changing.

HOW AWESOME.

...But seriously, glad it's not eye gouging white anymore. The site gradually improved with time and the restoration of the classic background is a welcome addition.

Now, for the love of GOD, please do NOT change the god damn format AGAIN. This is FINE.

DO
NOT
FUCKING
CHANGE
IT
AGAIN.

Please...

My good sir words cannot describe the overwhelming joy I feel at this announcement. If were to be sitting next to you right now I would kiss you.
