This is my goodbye

So finally, after some time delaying it, it is the time to say goodbye.

It has been over 2 years since I first started playing the game. A long time enjoying the game and being part of our amazing community, learning and growing thanks to the veterans first and then trying my best to give back everything I received by helping new players learn and grow. It has been a great time for sure, and it pains me having to say goodbye, but my journey through Etheria has come to an end. And I cannot leave without giving my thanks to all who, in one way or the other, have helped me through my adventures. To all the journey companions that have made this time in Etheria so enjoyable and epic that I will never forget it in my life.

First, I want to thank the developer team who try their best to make this game as great as possible. I might have not agreed with all your decisions, but I do feel that the game has slowly become better and more enjoyable thanks to your efforts. Thank you so much for allowing us to enjoy this great game and the wonderful community it has gathered around it.

Then, I want to thank @Jeto, our true Eveline. Like her, you have always been at our side to help us in times of need, guiding our steps through the twisted paths of Etheria and sharing your infinite wisdom so that we never get truly lost. The game would be probably much worse for us players without your excellent job at hearing us out and sharing our feedback with the dev team. You are, without a doubt, one of the greatest assets of the game and I cannot but thank you for all your help, patience and dedication to the community. This community is truly lucky for having you. Thank you very much!!!

And last, but not least, I want to thank all the players I have met during my time here. From the ones that already departed these lands, to the ones that still roam them in search of adventures and glory, you all have been an essential part of the joy this game has brought me. To the members of Odin, our big family. To the members of the legends, our current biggest rivals (but also dear friends). To the members of so many kingdoms, to all the guests of our discord, to those I have met here in the forums and to those I have met in the game global chat. To all of you that have been or are part of this helpful, loving, funny and awesome community… Thank you!

I will now take my leave. The road goes ever on, and this time it will lead me away. But the paths trodden won’t disappear, the journeys taken won’t be forgotten, the friendships made along the way will live on. It has been a real pleasure, and I wish all of you the best.

Goodbye.

That’s a bummer, hopefully you’ll be back. Your work on the game with the guides is greatly appreciated and you’ll be missed.

There are SO MANY relevant Sam crying gifs I could have used

This is a huge loss that will be felt throughout the community. Your constant help to those in need in global chat, the game guides you help to provide and general feedback and support, will truly be missed!

Thank you for always being a real grounding presence in the community and in this forum. You are one of a few who have really helped set the tone and expectations here. It has made the forum a better place for other players, as well as a part of my job, I truly love and enjoy!

All the best on your new adventure & you will always have a seat at our table!

I said this in our discord as well, but…

@HigureTheStillWind’s contributions to this community will resonate for long after he has departed from the game.

I don’t think I can express how tirelessly he has worked to make this game a welcoming environment for all players. He has set a tone for global chat that is remarkably helpful and engaging.

Best wishes on all of your journeys my friend.

I know over the years, we have not seen eye to eye on a fair share of issues regarding the game. That said, your contribution to the community of this game cannot possibly be understated by anyone, no matter how hard one might try to do so.

Best wishes and safe travels in your future endeavors. And may the wind always be favorable and always at your back.

I have learned so much about the game and its workings thanks to you. Your work and tests in the background have been invaluable to gain all the knowledge I have shared with the community. I will miss you buddy :slightly_smiling_face:

We may have had some disagreements (I will never forgive your part on losing my precious 100% critical chance :winking_face_with_tongue: ) but I would be a fool not to see how much you have contributed to the the game and community. I leave happy in the knowing that there are enough veteran players ready to keep taking great care of them. They are in good hands for sure :slightly_smiling_face:

I’m sorry to hear it. But think of all the people in the game you invested in who will feel compelled to pay it forward to newer players. All the little changes here and there that we all enjoy in the game without thinking of them, but that started with your lead. That’s pretty cool.
I feel like I’m coming near my own quittin’ time. I’m seeing a number of my favorite players move on. Cheers to your “retirement.” On to the next thing!
