Titan Quest - Anniversary Edition > Legion of Champions AE

Passing the torch to nargil66

Bumbleguppy:
I am officially retiring from modding altogether due to age and health issues, I will be 60 in a few days. Having trouble even walking at this point and eating ibuprofen like candy. haven't done that since my time in a non-union factory in the 80's

Anyway, I reached out to nargil66 to see if he would finish the mod for everyone and he decided to pick it up for us.  :))

I for one welcome our new Modding Overlord and I've provided all the raw files and such to him.

So let's give a big welcome to the new modder for Legion of Champions, nargil66!

I'm lookimg for ward to the discussions when we get updates and such, pretty exciting!

Antar36:
First of all, we sincerely sympathize with your health problems and wish you a speedy recovery. Second thing, thank you for your contribution to the whole modding.

nargil66:
It will be an honor to continue your mod, Bumbleguppy. You've done so much in all these years, and every bit of your work shows your love, the warmth of your heart and your great sense of humor. What can i say, you modded this game longer than anyone else, master Yoda, setting an example for all of us.
I'm really sorry about these circumstances that are preventing you from continuing... i'll try to keep the spirit of original LoC intact, just in case if one day you are able and willing to return.

With your permission i'll open a new development thread here, for those interested in future plans, changes and additions. The first progress post is coming some time this evening.

Medea Fleecestealer:
Sorry to hear you're struggling so much BG and hope things improve for you.  :(  Have you seen a doctor at all?

Thank you nargil66 for taking up the baton for LoC.  It's a mod I've had a lot of fun with over the years and look forward to continue to doing so.

Bumbleguppy:
I am working to find a doctor to see, Medea, but I am not wealthy so I have to be patient (no pun intended) and committed to the confusing and frustrating journey. Here in the US you can just go to the emergency room but when it's not an emergency it's pretty frustrating to set up appointments.

I didn't mean to imply that I am confident I will become well, I am going to be 60 in a few days and I'm pretty sure I know my body well enough to say that my health problems are here to stay.

No point in worrying about my getting better any more than worrying that the winter will come, just enjoy the time we have here and now.  :))

Looking forward to the future of the mod, though lol.

I honestly hope some more modders will jump in to contribute, too. it would be epic and fun.

EDIT:
You know nargil, I was listening to a movie critic today and he mentioned the recent fashion in entertainment for the viewer to identify with the protagonist and how that wasn't always the fashion. When I look at the most profitable video game franchises, that's what I've always seen.

I, like a lot of others evidently, don't really see themselves as the main object of their own story...I tend to see the overall experience as the source of all the wonder, joy and understanding of myth and movie and game. So playing TQ was always pretty unsatisfying to me because I never felt like I was a part of some adventure, I was meant to be the object or the center of the adventure and that always struck me as unrealistic, or even solipsistic.

So I was always attracted to the Summoner class just to be part of something rather than the only something....guess it goes back to growing up with 4 brothers and sisters and being in so many working bands or even employment with many co-workers. I guess I don't want to escape from that more like accentuate what I love about it.

Ah well, I've said too much  ::)
