This may marked foot here after ten years in moddb. Many things happened in the past. Good or bad, as life went by.

I joined this site when I was college student, and due to my hobby - hanging around pc cafe - back and forth - captivating about one or two modded games in there. Searching around internet (well internet in my old place is slower as hell haha) about game modification and my search landed in here. First mod that took my interest was mod for Command and Conquer Zero Hour. Download it and tried, and wow. Tried this mod with other pc in PC cafe and asked my buddies to try it via LAN. We had a blast. Awesome. The second one if I recalled is a mod for Red Alert 2. Since then I lurk more and more in here, trying other mod for games like Diablo 2 LoD (Still lurk and trying a lot even today), Unreal Tournament 1999, Warcraft 3 TFT, Max Payne and many more. You should note that all games I played with mods are old games due to low end laptop (dual core processors).

Not only mod section, this mod provided a lot about many things. Community, yes community that made it stand big. I was already interested in 3D modelling and my software was 3DSmax 2009. Learned more and thanks to few 3D modellers here helped me improve more. And also thanks to one guy here (painting artist) I jumped to digital art in 2013, his advices (by using PM) helped me a lot even further. Other part is gaming community, where people share their comments and interest like rating and preview about mentioned games. Last part is random comments of random topics between members haha.

Years passed by, life went by - many people come and go - and so here also, members come and go. Maybe the community is no longer big as it was years ago. I don't know, but what I know is the modding is still kicking till today due to small number of dedicated gamers who love their games. Yeah.

And here 2020, toughest year ... or if I could say HARDEST YEAR ever. Everything in life is hectic, jobless are everywhere. This year gives us all huge impact on everything, everything we have. Job, social life, daily routine, financial status etc. With everything is in hard situation, I should think more to adapt. Losing my old job in marketing division of social company in January 2020 didn't stop my step to move forward. And with slow pace I tried to survive this situation. My current objective is now : "SURVIVE"

Looking back to the past, and then learned from the mistakes we made in the past. Make yourself grow as the life goes on. Everything changes so do you.

PS : Now I have better next gen spec so I decided to try few games I haven't tried before in these quarantine days.
