do you have any plans to create a map about Metro 2033?

your maps were my favorite, especially port trajan and claustrophobic, they were just small enough to not be hard to make saves on but they were big enough to have fun on, me and my friend really loved playing through section 9 as well and making a whole mission save on it, thank you for everything and God bless

I struggle with the same thought, thinking my work isn't as good as it can be so I shouldn't do it. That's just you being your own worst enemy. I mean, I made an entire horde mode gamemode based around your maps for pete's sake. Appreciate what you did. Hopefully when the clouds clear you can look back at the things you did and feel good about it again

It's a shame to see you go. I've thoroughly enjoyed your maps, as they've revived some of my desire to write. The harsh landscapes you fashioned sparked my imagination, and it's my hope that you find the rejuvenation you need. I know what it's like to lose that creative spark. But it's my hope that, like me, you can find your way back to it.

i've always appreciated your maps. they always remind me of INFRA, which is by far one of my favorite games and, its something i dont see too often on the workshop. i can't think of a way to say that i hope you heal, and i hope you get to a stable point and able to enjoy yourself and your way of living. thanks, alex

Good luck, i haven't done like anything in the gmod community but now i feel a sense to await your return if that makes sense or help

Thank you for everything you have done for all of us, you've moved mountains - truly.
Don't worry about passing the torch, you've certainly already ignited a wildfire for this community.
I wish you the best of luck, I'm sure you'll do wonderfully in time. Take it easy my man.

We lose yet another gem from the workshop.. Stay safe, king, love your work, never feel left out, never misunderestimate yourself.
Get well soon, your talent is very much beloved by many.

Stay safe

Take care

Hope things get better for you dude, thank you for your contributions.
Also yes, the GMod community is indeed fucking horrid most of the time.

The gmod community is ass tbh

sorry to hear about all that, also what a rude thing to say (guy below me)

I like your work, and don't have any particular issue with you. But this entire post reads like a long-winded Reddit soap opera of self pity.

If you have mental health problems, say so up front. Everyone understands and respects if you need time to yourself for whatever personal reason it is. But paragraphs upon paragraphs about how "I need cleansing," "I feel like a loner peering in," or "my era.. is over," is extravagant self-victimization and learned helplessness. This isn't it, Chief.

i mean if you made it to the top or front page of the workshop then your doing something right my friend.

im sorry to hear that you've been going through such feelings, and i hope you manage to get out the other end intact. your maps are always cool to see, even if im not all that smart when it comes to how they get built.

thank you for all your hard work on these projects. hope you the best for the future, take care

your life may be a lie but your maps are incredible i love them

im sorry for being so unsensitive, but for some reason, the lightning has missing textures, and its not for not having hl2 or cs:s. does someone know why?

im not much of a reader but i did read half of the text , the maps u created are amazing and i hope you will be ok

Thank you for all your hard work and amazing maps. Wishing the best for whatever you decide to do.

Not sure what is going on with the creator. But, I hope they will be ok.

Wait, what's going on. What happened to the creator?

take care
we wish you the best

Man... This is so sad to hear, but it's totally understandable your situaition, good luck on your future, you gonna need. We all love you

is there AI nodes and navmesh

You are always one of the best map creators. I never know you have problems related with your hobby. Take care and stay safe. And please, don't hurt yourself

You made amazing maps, i am sorry to see you go brother, i hope you find the cleansing you are looking for, and thank you for all the years of service

you made such good maps, sad to see you go

We love you man, please take care and good luck in your life moving forward. Thanks for the maps and all the memories we made with them.

Jesus loves you.

Thanks for your maps.

this was actually painful to read. your works were always great, unique and unlike any others. thank you for sticking up to that time, and take proper care of yourself.

take care man, thanks for the maps, I'm always curious about maps to see whats in them, its sad to see you leave but if its good for you, do it, thank you.

my favorite map creator is leaving..sad day..but I understand. Thank u for the awesome maps, you've done a lot and I will always be happy with the maps you've made. Will probably periodically visit them for the rest of my life, if possible. I've sunk many hours playing raids and experimenting with new weapons on these maps. Wish you the best <3

also take care man <3 we love you

Now I can't make you do anything, maybe you're reading these maybe you're not, and we all have no idea your IRL issues.
That said, while your feelings are 100% real this is a fairly normal point for creative types, we've all had that moment of "I will never be one of the greats", or felt we're treated like a great before it's earned. I've seen it myself any time people in my hobby (music) are approx age 24.
The trick is to make things that you enjoy or at least mindlessly meditate while you work on it. Otherwise we would all fixate on like, "viewers went up = impostor syndrome"; "viewers went down = I'm declining".

I'm not loyal to GMod and it's uh 'emotional' fandom so OK if you do quit GMod, but I did have fun exploring, you shouldn't put yourself down 'cause you did great, and I'd love to see you do non-GMod stuff.

Big yap but it's hard to say exactly what I wanted to.

navmesh?

We may not have talked that much but I hope for the best in the future. Take care of yourself man!

noooooooo

Bud, hallways or not, you're one of the best mappers out there. Take care

thanks for mapping for us alex <3

ive been following your work for some time and i must say, you are extremely talented and skilled in making environments. you probably dont want to hear this at the moment, but it would be amazing to see you work with a professional studio. your maps always felt like something out of a triple-A title and pretty much everyone on this platform would kill for the experience and creative mind that you have. whatever you do after this, i know you're going to do great.

take care bro and thank you for your amazing work </3

thanks for your work, we will miss you, forever and ever

we all love you

Even though your maps aren't perfect I still like them because I can tell you put love and effort into them specially with the atmosphere with some of the maps I really liked your landmass blackwall map very creepy!
You really do have talent for map making been a fan of you since the makings of your maps the one I really loved was your claustrophobia map I love F.E.A.R and I was happy you made one so I hope you realize this is coming from someone who really loves your talent I hope you're doing good one is the best people out there hope you get a good rest today!

thank you and take care of urself

Thank you for your work, Alex. Have a good rest. We hope you feel better soon, but please, take the time needed to heal.
