i'll still be available technically but would prefer that if im needed it's only for really important stuff. i got a 4-6 page paper due tuesday in addition to numerous other assignments which i havent been studying for cause we were SUPPOSED to be on break (peak teaching loophole: just make assignments due the second break ends)
voxov 2025-11-02 1:57 PM
After this hotfix, I am going to be immediately on break until next Sunday (November 9th), I need the break badly and I cannot do work right now as I'm extremely burnt out and sleep deprived. Only ping me if important or something is game breaking, other than that respect my wishes and let me have this break love y'all

Idk if this the correct way to use this channel but, If im being a hindrance or a bother to any work that shouldn’t be my own, pls let me know I’ve had a lot of excitement to work on this game and I feel like I’ve been overstepping the stuff I should and shouldn’t be doing I hope I haven’t been alienating in here though bc I still feels a bit weird for me to be in this server… but that’s pretty much it

After a talk with my parents, I’m gonna be going on a really long break. My life IRL has began to fall apart due to me placing forsaken above it, especially so close to an important start of my life. I’ll finish up Nosferatu and essentially stepping down for a bit. Atleast until mid-december when christmas break starts. This is also a wakeup call to myself for letting being a “big dev” go to my head. I’ll also be honest, I’m really disheartened with how this whole situation went and disappointed with some choices made. There’s nothing we can do. (edited)

grandma lisab 2025-11-20 9:42 AM
I'm following along with Vess and taking a step back after Nos, I will also no longer be handling external issues and would rather continue to communicate with Jedi about them if they're needed to be handled. I will be in the background, give my piece in situations if need-be and handle in-team issues and anything regarding finances/staff work so on but I refuse to continue forward dealing with such an ignorant and evil people. Alongside this I will be stepping in to further help testers/balancers regarding things this point forward, as they need assistance given their only outlet is gone. I don't mind that people are upset with me for what I said in those msgs, they're entitled to feel how they feel I already apologized whether they accept that apology is up to them I don't mind, but honest to god I stand by everything I said and they will never understand what we have gone through with Kaiser. Kaiser has not wronged any of us once, he's been here since day one and has been there for us the entire way despite everything we've gone through together, nor did his connection even harm us at the slightest during this, he was his own person and was integral to our team, he was a voice of reason for so many people who needed it most. Cutting him off caused more harm and split between those on the team than it did good, it did not 'save face.' I'm seriously so hurt at the choice of Kaiser's removal and this sudden switch-up against something that essentially nobody batted an eye to until it 'benefitted our image' seriously sits poorly with me. Why do we continue to not have any backbone regarding our own choices? Why are we throwing out our own team member for something that does not remotely cause us any harm? I will never understand it. All of this has seriously affected me, I'm devastated this was done to begin with. I haven't had any appetite to eat, I haven't had any motivation to get up, I haven't been able to sleep comfortably, this actually just sucks. That was my friend, someone who was always here for us, and throwing him away from something that was helping him and his mother with their poor IRL living situation does not sit well with me. This entire situation has opened my eyes to how much we need to stop caring about what doesn't directly affect our game, we are here to work. We are here to deliver a product to our playerbase which the majority does not consist of the vocal minority, the stats show it no matter what happens it will ultimately not affect our playercount or our stats. We need to stop taking up so many collabs because they're also forcing us to be cautious n' keep face no matter what, seriously we need to lock in and focus on what matters for our stats, Erin and James have both expressed this time and time again. So please. (edited)

yo just for all you guys here, because I rate you all and love working here. I had no part to play in outcome memories, and whilst I still do business with pariet and was aware of a potential acquisition, I was not aware of the details of what was going on with it, beyond the fact that there was genuinely potential to get a brand deal from sega, and there was also genuinely a call with devrel. I rejected to be involved with outcome memories on the basis of fat rat being involved simply because it’s a conflict of interest with any of the knowledge I have of how asyms work and my place already being quite difficult to navigate with the events of before. I’m not here on the basis of anyone else but myself and everyone else here that is a part of the team. What’s happened with the original owner whilst I don’t believe to be directly to be pariets fault, what’s evident and clear which I’ve only come to learn in the last few hours, is that he was just a kid who’s game had blown up and he was not prepared for the pressures and realities that brings with it. It was just a passion project which had grown far beyond the scope of what he wanted it to be. It’s depressing and shit that this is what happened, and I’m sorry that he’s gone through this much stress and hope he is okay and is able to move forward. and for transparency, I’ve had very open disagreements with pariet on matters of monetisation, and I don’t believe that heavy handed monetisation works or is healthy for asyms like Forsaken or Outcome Memories. I respect his views on it, but I think he’s wrong. It’s not that he wanted to turn it into blade-ball as far as I know to be clear. Whilst I do preach here that monetisation is important, I want to make a very clear distinction which I know you guys know, but just so there’s not any concerns from before. It’s because roblox pushes games to wider audiences which make roblox more money, and ultimately us within forsaken are able to scale the game more, and at the end of the day, it’s a tough economy to be living within, so having as much financial security as possible is important for all of us.
