  For those who don't know him by his real name, this is TotalBiscuit/the Cynical Brit.

  RIP John Bain/TotalBiscuit/CynicalBrit. For me the most kind, reasonable and elaborated voice in and around computer gaming.

  Damn. I knew this was coming but it still hurts. He was one of the most respectable, honest, and hardworking people in this industry. His death is a massive loss. I hope he rests in peace.

  Used to play starcraft 2 semi-professionally years ago (semiprofessionally meaning I took matches off of pros but wasn't consistent enough to be at the very top). Never met TB in person, but he always conducted himself with the utmost integrity. He was willing to call companies on their bullshit, even for stuff most people didn't care about like games not having extensive settings menus, etc. Furthermore he never solicited donations; he always was "self-funded" and consistently produced quality content. Super sad to see him go. He definitely knew it was coming (see [this extremely well written post]( https://www.reddit.com/r/cynicalbritofficial/comments/8g4eoj/official_totalbiscuits_future/ https://www.reddit.com/r/cynicalbritofficial/comments/8g4eoj...) ), yet remained very levelheaded about his situation.

    Wow. He seems like a really awesome guy. I'm sad the world and his family have now lost him.
