Hi, no, you eyes are not deceiving you, and no, this is a not a troll, this is the god honest above real LoneSlayer whom in times of yore worked on Video Game RPG. Now, I'm not entirely sure where I should of made this thread, so if it's in the wrong place (or if you don't believe me =P) move it to were you see fit. Now, it's been a while since I've played Wc3, almost a good year and a half now, but sometimes I feel compelled to just check on the general community, and for S's&G's I decided to hit up hive and just type in Video Game RPG. Yeah I got hits, but what I was not expecting was a more recent version of this to be out and about in the year 2008, and I took a look through it. Now, this may be the most egotistical thing you ever heard, but I was overjoyed to see that people were still somewhere out there working on this map. I remember the good ol' days where I emailed Death-Is-Near, told he no longer worked on it, and gave me a unprotected copy to go to town on, and I remember when I was just working on it by myself that at a point, I THINK, my memory is foggy, it reached the sixth highest download for a time on the old wc3sear.ch before it merged into hive, but after that it became overwhelming, and I discovered WoW, and became discouraged from working on this map, but it seems others were not. Oh yeah sure while playing WoW I popped back from time to time, made an adjustment here, some tweak there, but I had lost the passion for it for some reason, possibly because I let others into the project (not that's a generally bad thing, but for me it was =P).
But looping back to noticing a recent version of this out for distribution, I followed the link to these forums, and saw that a nice little community/following (whatever may be the word you want to use), had developed around this map in this day in age, well. I can't feel nothing short of flattered really that this is still alive, and I bet Elven would too, or something. Yeah, I'm a horrible egomaniac, I'm sorry, but if you are still working on this, I wish you nothing more than the best of luck, and hell, I may just hop back on Wc3 one of these days to see how far this map had come along since three years ago =P
