Forgotten - Season 1

TL;DR = I'm retired, the map is what I had before I quit. If it is broke, then it remains that way till someone else takes the reigns.



This is the last time I rewrite this description... Also in "proper english" for everyone's ease.

I mapped for this game for nearly 11 years. I went from knowing nothing, having to much ambition and producing garbage... to learning the inner workings of the source engine, studying maps and the genre itself for better understanding, homing my craft and my skills... to still produce garbage because I had to much ambition for my own good.

Every single map in my catalog is incomplete, buggy, laggy.
I know they are laggy, I didn't truly learn out the optimization system of source and how it worked till the tale end of my mapping life.
I know they are bugged, I didn't have coding knowledge and I didn't make friends during this time, so I had no one to confide in.
I know they are incomplete, I was to ambitious. I had so much planned and so much already partly made, but I never learned how to stop and actually look back to see if anything I had made was even worth it.

The experience is not going to be great, maybe not even good, I know this. But I still want these maps out there for the history. Every single one a snap shot of something I was trying at the time, a look into a younger mind of someone still learning the ropes and drowning in her own dreams.

Hate it if you want, it is you time, your taste, your opinion... I will not stop you.
Voice your hate if you want, I don't look at the comments anymore... I stopped looking years ago.
Rage about how bad I was else where if you want. We are all just trying to live our lives, and I decided a long time ago that this isn't where I am going to live anymore.

I value the time I spent, the 24,000 recorded hours in the authoring tools. I value the lessons I learned, the skills I now have, the memories I gained. It wasn't the best time in my life, so could say it was even the worst point, but I can safely move on... without feeling the need to ever again look back... and know that I left my mark no matter how small.
Because for every one of you that feels the need to be rude, hateful, vindictive... I know there are the silent few that did enjoy it, and that is more valuable.

I closed this book a while ago, but now I can finally shelve it.
Maybe you will see me again, making my own games, or maybe not... Is the beauty of the unknown and unwritten future.
I bid you all a wonder day, a valid existence, and pray we all reach better pastures~

OH!... And always remember... if you really hate the map that much?
Decompile it, improve it, make it your own. Create art, enjoy the process, view it from our side.
