Dear Fen,
Just like many others who have, still do and still will enjoy your videos, also wanted to offer support. In RL, I am a very experienced physician and if you need any help free of charge or someone to listen in a nonjudgmental way and offer some support let me know and reach out to me. :cool:

Of course you don't have to worry about us to do what's best for you, Fen.
The thing is that you have over 2000 videos on your channel, and for those of us that like your let's plays, that's more than anyone could ever want to watch for a lifetime as it is. You've built a great body of work that has brought a lot of people joy that you can feel good about. But by all means you gotta follow your instincts and inspiration. And it's nice to see that you'll keep up with Angelloader work, which is also a great service for us. Good luck with everything and cheers!

Hey Fen, you've provided many years of entertainment! Lots of random fun. Appreciate all your time and energy on Thief, including AngelLoader, vocal contributions to FMs, and speed runs that include the Titanium events mentioned by RickMcKnight above.
I remember you saying before you like cars and know a bit about them. If you ever do a Fen's Car Talk or similar, maybe let us all know :) But, of course, only do it for 'you' and if it would make you happy and is not stressful; not for us. I only mention it because I thought I maybe saw a spark in you when it was brought up before.
No matter where your journeys take you, I wish you much happiness and success!
(had to re-post this because I tried to edit it my earlier message and the forum deleted it instead for some reason)

Dear Fen, I really enjoyed your videos, they always put a smile on my face, and more to this, they helped immensely with the fm's.
You did a great job helping taffers all over the world.
What I can say is live your life the best you can, and how you like it. Hope it will come a day when you'll wake up and see all the magic in life.
Send you my best wishes, and hope evrything will fall into place.
Big hugs from Italy

Fen your videos helped through some bad times! And your personality is a great inspiration! You are a highlight for all of us quirky strange people <3 You gave me motivation! I respect your decision and hope you can achieve your dreams <3

Thanks for all the effort you put in over the years, Fen. You are one of the YouTubers who helped me enormously in my own fight against depression. Your voice combined with all the beloved Thief sounds really helped me get through some extremely dark times, for which I am eternally grateful. Don't hesitate to reach out if you want to.

Fen, thank you for AngelLoader. Although I don't use it too often (because of playing very often in Linux, where I can't get AngelLoader to work), it is a very comfortable loader that is still being in active development, and also offers various choices and options one doesn't get with FMSel or some other, "retired" loaders. It's also a helpful tool for checking translations because switchiong language is rather easy compared to other FM loaders.

Hello Fen,
fellow Thief fan here who discovered the original game around 99 or 2000 or something as a 9 or 10 year old kid. Still my favorite game/series to this day (especially with the ever-achieving community and outpour of fan missions) and about the only game worth investing your time as a 33-year-old "adult". While I have to admit that I was never particularly fond of your style of commenting (seemed to be rather annoyed about the constant fast talking and "babbling" - no offence here!), I was definitely aware of your output of quality let's play videos. Maybe I never got into it because I watched a lot of Klatremus' videos, who has a rather different approach.
Anyway, I wanted to say that you have my deepest sympathy for your struggles and I hope that you will see better times and free yourself from this darkness and everything that troubles you. A lot of what you described seems familiar. I have had psychological issues since at least my youth days. Now at 33 still living with my parents in a disfunctional home (somewhat "toxic" in each and every way, although I hate this "expert newspeak"!). I also have an alcoholic problem (episodic alcoholic with bad binges) and struggle to this day. Trying to not give up hard and stay sober and change everything, but it's tough, especially in these dark times around the world and of the year. I used to be a musician, but my creativity seems to be dead by now. Haven't played the piano in ages. This year was the worst so far, I basically f*cked up everything and shit hit the fan, about everything took a turn for the worse and I reached new lows I couldn't have imagined before. Anyway, please don't give up! Maybe someday you will do videos again or find something new and creative that you like :-)

i am hoping fen will still do voice work for fan missions?
his hammer voice is the best yet
as far as walkthroughs there is so many people doing it, it kinda lost its luster, once in a while i will watch a klat just to see what i missed as he gets 100%, and whalen when he try's to blackjack a.i. on darkmod is good stuff

Well Fen, I probably know how you're feeling these past and present times. My life's experience was and still is all over the place. I'm also still struggling with a lot of issues but I'm still standing and a lot of that has to do with my Tafferfriends here on this forum. As for you, you helped me more than you'll ever know, just by being you and the way you helped all of us with your remarkable Let'sPlay instructions. I applaud and thank you for that. In your own way you were there for me a lot of times, keeping me sane :sly: I guess you never knew that. Just try to get by and do whatever it is you need to do, to get to where you want to be. Real life can be a struggle, I know that. Never give up hope for better times, because the're will be better times at some point. Keep you spirits up if you can and I'm sending you my love and appreciation, just for the person that you are. :thumb: Perhaps we'll meet again, here on the forum, in-game or elsewhere. Well, anyway in spirit!
:angel:
