We did "last a while". Two years of plot heavy game, in fact. ;)

Which is remarkable for everyone that's been there that whole time. But also in consideration that I've only been here since February, and a lot of other people just joined in the last couple of months and I know a handful of people who were going to app in the next week or so. It's. Not entirely the same in that perspective. I'm not trying to argue or say your point isn't valid, I'm just giving a different point of view.

I know the other point of view. But it is a very plot heavy game, and there's only so long it can go on for, and it's exhausting to keep up with and write for. And this has been a hard decision to make.

I love the Elegante and I always will, but it was never going to be a long term game. Anything with a solid, interactive plot won't be (unless it's written and modded by robots). All I'm saying is that it really did last a while. For a game we weren't sure was going to make a year, two years is awesome.

So yeah, sorry if I sound defensive. There's just no way we could keep everyone happy, no matter what decision we made, and today's been rough.

And believe me when I say I understand a mod's point of view as well. Especially with as many real life problems as you guys have been having, when I saw the announcement, I wasn't that surprised. Just. Sad that it's coming to an end.

No need to be sorry for that; trust me, I see both sides and I'm trying to mentally balance it out so I don't come across to harshly one way or the other.

I would hope there wouldn't be harshness. :/

I think it probably wasn't. Because seriously, it would really upset me if I thought people actually felt angry towards us for this. Disappointed sure, but angry? I'd feel really let down.

And no worries. Like I said, even if we did this five years from now, we'd have exactly the same reactions, just maybe from different people. There will be a sandbox, and there will be more games. I for one just need a break before I write my next one. XD

I'd honestly have to wonder about anyone that felt angry about this. :| And then I would have some Words with them myself. :|

Right. >: And understandable, needing a break. What I said from last night still stands, if you guys need anything, just let me know.

So far everyone's felt the same as me; disappointed but also extremely excited for final plot. It's so fun to know that something I've had to sit on for so long is finally gonna be revealed!

And thanks babe. ♥
