Props to Passionate Community + Shameless Stream Plugging

Oh, and I mentioned this a couple of times in chat, but it bears repeating:
BP and especially War In Heaven has some very good debriefs, even sometimes when you die! It's worth seeing them. They often contain very useful hints, or sometimes plot developments.

Hello Joe,
I just posted my last official HLP post.
https://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=98317.0
However, the last update for AFR and TBG will be released most likely in the 2nd week of August or the 1st.
EDIT: Correction--- Not my last official post. My last official modding work. I will linger in HLP but I won't do anymore updates. My brain is having a hard time focusing nowadays. Crap, my english is really terrible.
redmagejoe:
In response to Herkie's above post, I will reiterate here what I stated in his thread. I ask that everyone following their thread pay appropriate respects to the wonderful experiences that Herkie has given us. Bless you, Herkie.

Please take these words that I have said time and again to heart: Despite a product's warts or shortcomings in particular aspects, always, ALWAYS a passion project will shine through and reach me on a deep level. I can tell that you put your soul into this, and that completely overrides any and all criticisms I have for it. I can tell when another human being put their passion into something and it is thus delivered not as a corporate-inspired product to be commercially successful and to be consumed by the masses. It is being hand-delivered from them to me, to Dekker, to CT27, to every member of HLP that plays it.
I have gone back and enjoyed Aftermath off-stream a number of times since I played it on stream, because of moments of pure joy it brought me in spite of and because of silly story tropes or ridiculous balance decisions. It's just so unapologetically confident in itself that it's charming to me and I love it for all of its flaws. Please don't ever let anyone's words discourage you from believing that you made something great that will forever be a part of the FreeSpace legacy.
Thank you Herkie for everything you've done.
