Hey all,

I haven't been here in a while, and probably won't remain for long, but I figured I should at least give the ones that are still around a short explanation. And an official goodbye.

Back in November 2016, I used facebook as main means of communication with the core of my mods' fanbases. I used a dedicated page to interact with people and get myself motivated. I also had a Patreon going back then. It never got really big, but it was enough to keep me modding and updating PerMa and Darkest Dawn (a lesser known mod for Grim Dawn) on a monthly basis.

Anyway, facebook ended up deleting both my personal account and the page. That was a pretty low blow, following a series of pretty low blows I went through in real life. I won't repeat all that stuff here, but if you were a follower back then, you may remember a thing or two. Losing the page killed my remaining drive completely. I couldn't muster the strength for a serious attempt to rebuild the community.

Some of the battles from back then are still going on. I really enjoyed the time I spent here - all the way from back when SkyRe had a dozen dedicated endorsers/commenters that I all knew by name, until way after things blew up and I had a million downloads. The journey was fun. It's an experience that definitely left a mark. But as my life is right now, and most likely will remain for the next few years, there's no room for modding.

As great as it is, it also has a lot of soul-suckery going on. I'm not someone who can do things casually. I get obsessed. I learned that, and I do it with everything I like. Being obsessed with something that is as taxing as this doesn't leave room for much else. While I was modding actively, I neglected a lot of things, and while a lot of good came from, I also caused damage.

If there's a talented soul among you that officially wants to pick up the torch and fix the remaining bugs, feel free to contact me - either here via PM or on facebook (search for a guy called "Surinoshino" with a bird pic - no, not a real account). Or maybe Steam.

Most important info at the end: Some people delete their mods when they decide to go, but I'll leave mine up. A surprising amount of people still seem to download and enjoy them, so there's no need to take that away.

With that said, this is goodbye now. Thanks for everything.

Fun fact - I work as a software developer nowadays, and used the mods as reference work. It worked despite the garbage code in my patchers ;)
Hopefully HR never ends up checking my FAQs.
