Hello, all.
I'm aware that this question might sound silly or a bit insensitive, but if I may ask, how is Digital Nightfall doing ? Yesterday, I opened his profile and then looked for his latest posts. And he hasn't posted anything since last year's summer.
Is he all right ? Has he just simply moved on and entrusted other dependable forum members as new master admins ? In the last two or so years, I've had a bit of a hiatus and didn't visit the forums frequently, so I'm just asking out of curioisity, that's all.
Thanks in advance for any answers.

He's working for Arkane Studios now.

Whatever happened to a lot of people, is the question you should be asking. I kinda miss Trance and Turtle.

Petike, he went on to help make Dishonored. His Internet presence has been greatly reduced, but he's doing fine over in Lyon, France.

I'm still here :confused:
Just lurking, is all.

Yeah, I've noticed he's probably moved on to being a professional developer now, but I just didn't piece it all together in one go. :D
Thanks for the explanation. I'm sure he's doing well. :cool: BTW, how much of an active hand did he have in
Dishonored ? ;)

I honestly don't know you yet, but the more, the merrier. :)

He's also mentioned elsewhere that because of TTLG's past association with Arkane, etc. that he's not really supposed to be involved here anymore in terms of posting, etc. For what ever reason it's kind of considered a conflict of interest. I don't really understand the details, but I kind of get it.

I think it was the same for Purah (the author of the Calendra series). Apparently, when you join the gaming industry they don't want you involved in other online communities, especially not gaming (lest you leak your employer's secrets).

It's not that they don't want you involved in online communities, it's that they don't want you involved in ones that are directly related to projects you're working on. That's what the community managers are for.

Level Designer. Watch the credits for "Daniel Todd". The designers all usually have a hand in every mission, with at least one primary designer doing a larger part, and he was a primary designer of two Dishonored missions, though I don't know which two. He was a speaker for Arkane at a gaming convention last year, as well, talking through gameplay options while a co-worker played, and answering some questions.
