I really don't want to quit CM13 ... I really don't.
I'm not quitting because of the warrior-line-caste AOE-chain-stuns.
I'm not quitting because of the marine slug or grenade chain-stuns.
I'm not quitting because of the way the community has changed the game from a med-RP from the APOP era to the TDM era that it is now.
I'm not gonna lie, the above contributed heavily, but it's not the main reason.
... life has a funny way of hitting you where it hurts the most and when you least expect it.
I'm going to break it to ya ... My Grandfather has gone into the deep end of Alzheimer's, and I want to spend more time with him.
I am also currently moving ... and by the time my Grandfather passes, i'll be dead smack in the middle of college as well trying to earn a medical degree which is supposedly double the work of normal college students.
After that I realize that ... I won't have any more TIME as I get older, as time is the enemy of youth and freedom.
Time waits for no-one, and lost time can never be found again.
... I realize that I've spent a lot of time on computer games, over 10,000 hours total that my computer(s) have tracked ... and that ... I should really be doing something with my life other than focusing and living in a world that's not real and well ... ends in just 1-2 hours or even shorter.
I ... really don't want to do this but ... I have to ... for the sake of my own future, I MUST move on.
I've been here for 3 years ... back when we had SULACO, and baldies, no tank or APC, no CAS, the drop-pod ... and god forbid cloning.
CMSS13 will ALWAYS hold a place in my childhood and gaming heart. Perhaps conditions one day will help me return.
Until then ...
