nickjcal24 — Yesterday at 8:28 PM @everyone we're going to set the Discord to read-only for the rest of tonight so we can get other work done that we need to do.

Tomorrow you will know more about what our plans are for the future, along with a livestream on Wednesday at 11 AM CT.

We'll share the links to where all that will be tomorrow afternoon.

Thank you SO MUCH for the support. It means a lot to the whole team and we're excited for what we're cooking up next.

Please be good to one another and keep the positivity up. What happened happened and if you've been with the new version of The Escapist since 2019, you know we just keep moving forward.

We're excited and you should be too.
