So what has a beginning it will has an end. The last 2 builds that i post is kind of forced for me to do.
Sad story: I don’t know i am game addict, but i played the game, thought of builds, usid grimtools, used Gdstash 3 - 5 hours a nearly every day to test, play since it has full published on steam. And i want to be end this, i don’t want to be a men that a child or wife looks me and see this. Further for publishing build took me 30 - 60 min too. I don’t know if i can keep up with the patches and uptodate everything too. I still had time to do 1 MA degrre and training providing qualification listed in the National Qualification Register. (To be honest i don’t know how to exactly say or even has some these in other countrys.)
I have some issues now in life too, that i need to solve. Everybody has, but to be a builder, some of you don’t know how much effort need to be put in builds. I don’t know i ever want to come back, i wouldn’t right now.
Game is good i had fun times, but to sick cause of this not ideal and constantly achieve something that is in the virtual world not in real life not ideal too. Ex: Killing constantly enemys in virtual word i don’t think it is good ur brain. I just palyed cause i want to be creativ and make builds, nothing else, but right now to “killing” is not optional any more for me.
I just want share some of my experience of good and bad things to think about this.
i want to thx everybody whoes helped here and for the community without name. Especially whoes made me videos of my chars and stand the much messages.
It was good, but not ideal to live a healthy life.
Best wishes for your future life decisions Nandi and thank you for all your efforts in providing builds for the community to enjoy. We’ll be here if you ever do want to return, but if not then may the gods of Cairn bless all your future endeavours whatever they may be.
Best of luck nandi! I have struggled at times with investing too much/all of my free time into gaming… And when working 50-60 hour or more per week with a hour commute on both ends, this leaves little free time. I have taken breaks when I’ve needed to, and learned to balance my life a bit more over a years. But I still fall into old habits at times. Again best of luck to you and thank you for your contributions!!
Thanks for all your builds–I’ve played several of them in the past when I could still play Grim Dawn, but the burn-out has hit me as well. A great game, but just too much to keep up with, too much grind, too much time invested from my life as well. Best wishes going forward, and for a good resolve to what is bothering you in your life right now.
Thanks men, it is sad that you make a hard cut. For me as a former WoW addicted this game is some sort of retirement because it can adapt mutch more on your lifeplan. Take care and take the time to sort things out. And came back to this or other games when you feel ballanced.
Ive owned this game for long enough to understand what you are talking about, not new to that, but I am new to the forums, and reading this makes me feel as though I really missed out on a classic period in time for this game.
I wish I had the chance to know you over the years of Grim Dawns growth. You’re hilarious, and seem like a pretty cool dude. I’m sad to only be getting involved in the forums now. Good luck to you, sir.
No blame or judgment from me, only huge gratitude for your work and dedication for the game we love.
I know how hard and time-consuming it is to create and test builds to only publish a few valid ones.
I hope you find balance in your new way of life. Farewell, you’ll be missed.
I understand what you mean. In terms of forum popularity, just check number of views for old builds, mind boggling.
Also most of the so called forum veterans are inactive. Currently Mad Lee’s builds are keeping the traditions. Superfluff have one recent build and he’s forum member from the beginning it seems. Stupid Dragon is very active too.
But sadly the lots of emblematic players are not in forum anymore. So the new blood should take the reign @Knife, you can have a role in that!
