When did you realize Penny Arcade had become a focus-tested product?

When they both eventually lost their edge due to medication, fatherhood, and Dickwolves.

When they made a generic 'use a phoenix down to revive a character killed in a cutscene' joke in 2014.

I would also blame the influence of Tumblr.

Look at the OP comic. Brown dick noses and dicks in the ears.

Haha, the joke is that the art back then was so dull and generic while today's art is legitimately a cartoon with uncanny valley detailing, which somehow only accentuates the writing's lost bite!

I don't get it.

>>92544649
did they make a comic about trump yet?

>>92547446
That would be controversial.
What do you think this is?

We need to ban High capacity spinners!

What? No. It just looks like crappy Tumblr comics.

Just fucking take a look at that lazy blurry picture background.
And the second and third panel copy pasting.
