Despite the humour-oriented nature of the series, some insiders have noted that it is in fact very accurate about the material. The piece on what you need to have to be a game designer was noted by one designer as being spot on. This shouldn't be surprising, as James, Daniel, and Alison are all industry professionals; James is a game designer himself, Daniel is an animator for Pixar Canada (okay, not quite the right industry, but pretty close), and Alison is a concept artist at Relic Entertainment.
Unfortunately, it was revealed on the Extra Credits [http://twitter.com/#!/ExtraCreditz/status/101081254224605184 Twitter] that due to a money-related misunderstanding, Extra Credits' run on ''The Escapist'' has drawn to a close. After a brief "hiatus" period on [http://www.youtube.com/user/ExtraCreditz YouTube], they moved to [[Penny Arcade|PATV]]. Proof, if needed, that the two groups are on the same wavelength. However, due to [[Penny Arcade]] deciding to wind down PATV in December of 2013 Extra Credits is back on [http://www.youtube.com/user/ExtraCreditz YouTube] for the foreseeable future.
''[[Fan Nickname|Pre-Escapist]]'' episodes can be watched [http://www.youtube.com/user/kirithem here]. (have in mind most of this had [[Updated Rerelease|Updated Rereleases]] for ''The Escapist'')

** Their episode on the controversial bills SOPA and PIPA had James, Daniel and the owners of various gaming websites speaking in live action, urging the viewer to boycott E3 unless the ESA, which is E3's main backer, withdrew their support for those bills. They followed it up the next week with a conventional episode on it however.
** They did it again with their "Extra Credits supports Firefall" video. There was even some lampshading by the team about it.
* [[Spin_Off|Spin Off]]: Starting in early 2014 they have announced the possibility of several spin offs, starting with Jame's Recommends.
* [[Updated Rerelease]]: the [[Uncanny Valley]] episode, mk. 3! Now on [[Penny Arcade|PATV]]!
* [[Very Special Episode]]: Game Addiction: Part 2. Complete with [[An Aesop]]:
