Fair anjohl, I knew him well...
Oh dear, sorry you are going. Will miss your wonderfully weird puzzles.
Sorry to see you go.

Goodluck in the future and I hope that one day you will return.
Good luck with the business! I hope you enjoy the time you have with that and personal life as much as you have with games in the past!
Best wishes on your endeavours and hope you'll be back eventually. ;)
Starting your own business is scary, exhilarating, and liberating, all at the same time. Best of luck to you.
Best of luck and...

Go mobile :) Particularly if you have old timer sensibilities on gaming you might be surprised how much goodness you can get on a tablet or smartphone nowadays.
Sorry to hear you go, but best wishes and hope you'll return someday. Good luck with your growing business as well!

Later on, man.

Seconded on the starting a business aspect. It's a MASSIVE timesink, especially when you're first trying to get off the ground, but it's also one of the most potentially rewarding things ever.

I haven't made the step myself yet, but I understand it from an operational standpoint as a long time management type who handles vendors/inventory/financials/bills and all the various other mundane details involved in keeping one going.
(Or the fact that you can potentially hemorrhage cash on any given day if something breaks down.)

Good luck!
I seem to remember you as a bit of a provocateur, in a good way (before all such people were sweepingly branded as "trolls" nowadays). It's good for a forum to not get too anodyne or politically correct.

I know what it's like when lifestyle choices and interests fundamentally change. In your case it sounds for the best.

anjohl: I miss the days when GOG was Good Old Games, when the site was a carefully curated "Criterion Collection" of the best the medium had to offer from the past. My interest waned when the site broadened to include modern indy games, and then AA and A titles.
An excellent metaphor, especially for a cinephile such as myself (I work at an arthouse). It reflects my own, though I continue to keep abreast of GOG even if I feel like any golden oldies and modern classics circa mid-90s to mid-00s they could theoretically release has already come and gone, and the publisher/IP well has sort of run dry.

My modest expectation of GOG in the future is a DD platform for a few of the "big indies," such as Wasteland 2, Torment: Tides of Numenera, Project: Eternity, and Age of Decadence, since I'd rather support GOG with such titles than other outlets.
