When, exactly, did Penny Arcade start to suck? It had a run

like 2012

When they got kids and became boring dull dads with no edge

When they got married and PAX became a thing. Legitimacy destroys subcultures.

When they updated all of their old comics they removed the animated gif part of their warcraft 3 comic.

I'm so annoyed they did that.

I barely remember anything about the mess with the Phantom, but this comic never fails to make me laugh.

Did we really need two threads on this?

Scarytown must be a real shithole

More than half the time I can't even tell if they're trying to tell a joke.

This is definitely part of it. I feel like they still put out the occasional good strip but the average comic they do is pretty fucking dull now. On top of that they're also making at least two other comics on the side at least semi-regularly so that probably eats into their creativity on PA too. I wouldn't mind them doing Automata full time though; that shit has potential.

Also, I just went to their website for the first time in forever and their comic isn't even the big attention grabber on the front page anymore. It's all PAX and merch shit. What the fuck.
