Whether you agree with Croal’s writing and opinions, his influence on gaming and industry discussion can’t be ignored. In a consulting capacity, it’ll be interesting to see how he shapes future projects and titles with his insight on games and gamers in general.

As friends and (former) colleagues, we here at Destructoid wish N’Gai the best of luck.
