A legend Jogs On!!!

I was lucky enough to catch up with FML Community Legend Rik Stewart last night.

Rik has decided to step away from FML for a while, having joined the game at the same time as Rik nearly 3 years ago I know how much Rik loves FML and this is a decision he would not have taken lightly.

I recall the day I was asked to become a Mod by Richard Tebbutt and my first reaction was only if you are asking Rik as well. This was not me being a twat this was me knowing how important Riks role was in the Pre Release Beta GW we were in together Physco GW6

The banter that was created in this GW was like nothing I have ever seen since and possibly will again, I dont know what created it but it was a special GW and one I had the most fun on.

Perhaps it was just a case of a GW full of people who were up for the crack I dont know maybe it is the game has changed so much ?

Im sure given more time in his life Rik would continue playing FML, but people move on however Rik has done so much for FML I find it really sad that he is moving on.

With FM2011 around the corner Im sure what gaming time Rik does have he will spend on that as opposed to FML, however FM is a great game it does not have the community aspect that FML does.

If FML had a fraction of the depth involved with FM then Im sure it would keep people involved for longer, however FML is not FM and there is a big difference between both games.

I decided to play FM2011 Demo for a few hours recently, and wow what a game!

This game has gone from strength to strength with every addition it just takes on more depth but can also appeal to those who want to be less involved ie in the training side of things etc. The game is so diverse, I love the interaction with the players albeit I have annoyyed most of mine in the few hours that I spent playing.
