:(

I'm excited that she is going for new endeavors that seemingly will pay better but I'd be lying if I didn't say that I'll miss her IGN reviews and articles. Also, she was a big reason why I enjoyed Beyond! lately so yeah, this is a bummer.

No way. I love love love Alanah. I can't wait to follow her wherever she ends up.

Too bad, she actually had pretty good personality and opinions for their network. I look forward to seeing her pop up somewhere else.

I'm glad her leaving seems to be on good terms. SO much now-a-days is always tinged with some negative spice. This just appears to be that she's doing something positive for her life and career while leaving on her own terms, so more power to her!

Her YouTube seems to be blowing up whilst also earning a lot from Patreon. I'm guessing she's going down the route of doing that full time.

What does Alannah have to do with Marty's podcast appearances??

It seems the relationship between the two of them completely soured. Marty Sliva has completely disappeared from all IGN podcasts for a while now. I didn't think much of it, until reddit pointed out that Alanah
stopped following Marty on Twitter (apparently with some other IGN staff). They also launched a podcast together and she has since removed any name reference of him from the podcast on her website, twitter, etc.

EDIT: Here's a fair rundown: https://www.reddit.com/r/IGN/comments/8oz2lp/wheres_marty_separating_fact_from_fiction/

Any idea where she's headed?

No, although she says in the video that the place she's going will allow her to create more Let's Play and other game content for her channel. At IGN it was apparently against the rules for her to do that. She also says she'll make enough money with her new job that she no longer needs a Patreon.

Bet she joins Nintendo. Everyone who was on NVC at some point eventually joins NoA.

So... Waypoint?

Actually, that'd be pretty cool.

I highly doubt Waypoint is in a position to pay people more than IGN. I'd love to be wrong about that though as Waypoint's content is way more my speed.

I'll be honest, I haven't watched the video. But, is she leaving because of creative issues, or because she's not being paid enough? I figure places like Waypoint and Giant Bomb are appealing because of creative freedom more than anything.

That's cool. I know she moved her entire life to work for IGN so props to her. Wonder where she's going.

Hopefully she goes to Hollywood and acting like Olivia Munn.

Munn was way too big for just video games.

She was one of the only redeeming parts of IGN sad to see her go :(

I just want to know what happened already. Tons of IGN people stopped following him on Twitter even Greg Miller. I really hope it doesn't turn out the guy is a creep or something.

Damn she's beautiful and will be missed, loved their Beyond podcasts with her.

Best of luck!

She has been the best thing about IGN for a while now. Sorry to see her go but I hope we'll see more of her somewhere else!

First time I saw Alannah I had to do a double take because I honestly thought it was Emma Roberts.
