This is a very long overdue Rave.
And this is a Rave to Xanis. (You would have never guessed.)
This is a big thank you for all the random stuff in private talk on IRC. Questions answered, problems helped with, small reassurances.
This is a huge thank you for sorting out the EPIC store after the glitch that removed close to 2000 items from the inventory.
This is a gigantic thank you for the cemetery on centaur-island plot. The graveyard cleansing. They put in a lot of work, and the actual event was very fun. I got to see lots of sides of characters I normally would not-- and then they decided to end with a teaser that there could be so much more. The final IG monument, built by the players, but created in the toolset and placed by Xanis, is just amazing.
More then that, it made me feel that my characters could make a difference in the world. If they wanted to work at it, they could change things. For better, or for worse. And that kind of hope, that kind of involvement, is why I think so many people still play NWN despite the fact that it came out eight years ago.
So thank you, Xanis, for making this place a place worth playing. Thank you for your work, and thank you for your patience. I look forward to seeing where we can take this plot, because I'm far from finished with it, and by the sounds of it, you have ideas for it as well.
