DF didn't leave the site, though, just John, who did so as a direct result of people calling him out for the Ion Fury vid. Alex is still here and still posts regularly.
Oop. Fair enough. I haven't seen him around in a while, so I guess I just got that wrong. I moused over his profile, but didn't check recent post history.
They are fantastic and I love what they do. Looking forward to what they have planned this year, November is going to be nuts.
User Banned (1 Week): Derailing and hostility over multiple posts.
Your framing definitely made it seem so. I mean, framing the fact that people called out John for very deliberately supporting a bunch of bigots as "undeserved mistreatment", is a completely unfair and gross misrepresentation of the situation, can you not see that? John is not a victim, he is a grown ass man that people tried to hold accountable for the content he produces, he does not need babying, I don't understand why such a big portion of gaming side are obsessed with babying John, it's really disturbing.
Well, the outcome I was hoping for was that John owned up to the fact that he is serving market piece after market piece for a bunch of fascists and committed to do better, instead he played the victim and basically tripled down on Voidpoint/3D Realms coverage. Next time? He hasn't exactly stopped covering the fascist pricks.
I checked in and saw lots of tags. I'm sorry for being awful before and I've thought deeply about this now in how I cover stuff. Apologies to everyone - really. Some bad things happened that I can't go into prior to the things being discussed...it's complicated. I simply didn't know what to do.
I only came to apologize for it, however. I can't post more beyond this due to the serious mental health/physical issues that arose earlier this year. It's not too bad now but I cannot risk it again - I'm not equipped to deal with it. Especially right now during new consoles. I'm not a strong person, I can admit that. :-(

Hey man, thanks for reaching out and posting all this. I hope everything goes well for you and that you find that peace you're looking for. It also takes a strong person to put this out there and understand what you have to work on.
No worries! Don't come back before you feel ready to. In the meantime I'm going to watch all the great content you put out! All the best
Hey, John. As far as I'm concerned, it takes courage and strength to own up to our problems. We'll be looking forward to all the content you produce!
Stay safe and stay strong, John!
You guys are my favorite channel on Youtube. Love your content and personality.
Wish you guys all the best!
You can literally come to Era and get a summary in the 1st 5 posts for any video they post if 15 minutes is too much time to watch a video. I honestly do not get this criticism.
This thread is celebrating your success, you dont owe anyone here an apology. Congrats on hitting the 1 million subscriber mark, its fully deserved!
Well deserved!!
Love your channel. As a matter of fact...at first I visited Eurogamer and DF was a nice bonus.
Now...it's the other way around 😉
I don't understand everything in your vids, but I still love watching them.
Can't wait for your PS5 and XSX videos. Cheers 🍻

What I like about Digital Foundry is they don't shit out videos just to be first. I subscribe because I can count on the videos to be worth my time.
Digital Foundry is probably my favorite YouTube channel. Every time a game releases that I'm interested in, I run to DF to watch their breakdown videos. I've used them for years to decide which version of a multiplatform game I should purchase. Well deserved.
Absolutely this! I pretty much decided where I play multi plat titles.
Congrats to DS for the amazing milestone. Looking forward to next gen analysis.
Just posting this on a public forum shows that you're a strong person. Self-reflection and growth is a sign of strength.
Keep up the great work and congrats to you and the DF team!
I watch their videos all the time. I like Alex, John and Richard a lot. Not sure if there's anyone else I'm missing. But they do great work.
Rock on dude! Absolutely love all your content along with the rest of DF. Take care of yourself, man. I can't WAIT to see your thoughts on everything next month and I hope you eventually feel well enough to drop by again occasionally. Onward and upward!
Congrats Digital Foundry crew! I've learned a ton from you guys, and you are my favorite tech content provider by a country mile.
Thanks for all the hard work too, especially during the pandemic. You guys have been working overtime, and it definitely shows.

Digital Foundry is fantastic -- a huge congratulations and thank you to the team for all their hard work!
Oh, god, I hadn't even considered that for cross-gen multiplats. That's a lot, wow.

DF has drastically improved in quality over the last 5-7 years. Ever since moving away from focusing on comparisons and going more in-depth on games tech (new and old) it's definitely become more interesting to watch.
I remember when all DF was, was the "look at 400x zoom pictures of 360/PS3 games" and the center of all fanboy warz.

Hey Dark1x I appreciate you coming in with this, thank you. I wouldn't hit yourself with having been awful before though. It was a sore point and it raised questions but it's nothing that leaves a mark beyond some understanding and recognition. You might not consider yourself strong but you came back to say this all directly and confront the issue; I think that shows you as having more of that strength than you think. Focus on yourself and your health primarily, and I hope you find some footholds against these issues soon. Sincere congratulations on the 1 million subscribers, enjoy that celebration and here's to the second million. I hope you enjoy breaking down the opening of this new generation as much as the people here enjoy watching you do so. All the best.
Thank you for coming back here for this and I hope you're able to get better in the future and your health gets better. On a better note, I hope to see more Retro DF with more Saturn games!
yea this is what I also feel about their videos. They might not be the first one to cover the topic but it's always worth the wait.
