Julian LeFay (Creator of The Elder Scrolls) has died

This is not how I imagined it... but it is symbolic. :messenger_tears_of_joy:

Im hitting the age where my heroes in metal and games are starting to die off.....I guess that means I'm a generation or two behind at best.

Bitter sweet that.
The road ahead is shorter than the road we have traveled, or something like that. It's sad seeing all my childhood hero's, musicians, actors, creators all die off. Some of old age, some way too young.

Polish is my first language, but I rarely see such rude offences. Everybody have a bad day someday but adults should control their anger. Rofif, I liked your posts, but you can only blame yourself for this permaban.
We got a few Poles here. If I'm not mistaken there is you, Bojji Bojji PeteBull PeteBull and there's definitely at least one I'm forgetting. They're all good people.

Why did Rofif crash out like that? I just googled translated what he wrote and it means "fuck you" in Polish.

And this was such a weird hill to die on.

Anyway, RIP to the legend. Cancer sucks, lost my dad to it years ago.

I wish current administration in US agreed as NIH cancer research got butchered. 😔

As a native pole, it means way more than just fuck u thats used often in english/on forums, he added "zjebie" too which means something like retard/dickhead/wacko etc :P
Basically saying to some1 "piedol sie zjebie" means irl u asking for being punched in the face, person had to offend u majorly and u are willing to go all out to fuck him up or die trying- there is a reason he didnt use standard english "fuck u" coz it simply doesnt seem heavy enough ;P

No idea why he did it, but lets not forget he is polish guy married to polish woman, so who really knows what kind of suffering he has to endure on a daily basis, it takes a toll on a person(know too many of my buddies personally who are slaves in sexless mariages xD ).
Maybe its a temp ban, he will cool down and come back in few weeks :P

Nah, it's a perm, and holy shit. That's extreme for just a little disagreement.
 
RIP, dude created one of the true juggernauts.


The forum will definitely be a little less retarded now.
It will be more retarded now, because being perm'd for a minor difference of opinion is purple territory. So far this place has been one of the last sane places when it comes to gaming.

Anyway, RIP Julian. The good pass you, the best never fade.

You think Rofif was perm'd for just a difference of opinion?
Wasn't that long ago that he came off a pretty long temp ban so could be he ran just out of lives.
For once again lashing out at another poster too.

Anyway, this thread isn't for that. It got derailed by nonsense, so I'll stop bringing it up.
 
Rest in peace and Respect to a legend. I'm not really a first person fan, but the worlds created are undeniably impressive and pushed open world game design. Cool to see he was involved with coding in Dragon's Lair too.
 
I hope they put in a Easter Egg for him in the game in some form. Seems like something they should do. Like a quest, NPC or landmark or something.

It's always sad to see a great visionaries life get cut short by Cancer or any other terminal illness.

Especially for one of the founders of Elder Scrolls.

The translator omitted how he addressed him and he used an extremely rude insult. Every single gaming site in Poland would ban him instantly for what he said, and rightly so.

Yeah, way too extreme answer. Not to mention lack of empathy on many levels. I lost my uncle and grandma few months ago because of cancer. I didn't know this man but I can see that he died way too young and for sure many people are missing him.

Rest in peace not you rofif rofif

I can only advise everyone to get Daggerfall on Steam (it's free). And then download Daggerfall Unity (you need the original game) and play it like this. Daggerfall is actually pretty good.

Daggerfall is timeless, the true definition of what a computer role-playing game should be. And to this day, it still has the best character creator in any game. So many possibilities.

He was super disrespectful regarding the thread topic and as usual was abusive towards other members, he's been banned before for similar behaviour so I guess that was the final straw for ol rofif

Oh shit I like free
 
RIP. Oblivion was my first non-JRPG, it opened my eyes to an entirely new genre of games. I spent a good 500 hours on the ps3 version.

Also, what rofif said was tasteless and disrespectful, but truly his most heinous offense was defending the trash fire that is FFXV. Knew he was rotten ever since.
 
Never knew this until I checked his wiki, but he was even part of the first Wayne Gretzky Hockey game on PC. Great game. It had it's issues, but it laid a foundation for sim related gameplay in hockey games with lots of stats, real players and teams and gameplay settings. This was way before EA NHL came out and added that, whose games were the opposite (good looking arcadey action and crap stats).

When WGH was released, there were hardly any hockey games even on the market. And even today there still are hardly any. My bro and I played WGH and WGH II to death.

It is kinda weird to die on the hill that has "unfunny asshole" flag plannted on it, like I genuinely wouldn't have even replied if it was a funny or clever response but it is just such a douchey thing to say about someone who just died I couldn't help myself, sorry if my responses offended you you may now go and high 5 chad and feel great about owning someone online.
He's a guy on this forum who always tries to be edgy and combative. I dont think he even truly believes some of the stuff he posts (like when GAF is laughing at a game and it's getting grilled in reviews on MC), he'll go to bat and defend those games to the bone. Even continuing it on when the topic has thinned out, he'll come back and repost about it to ignite it again to stick it to gaffers getting in the last jab.

It was a weird thing to say about a dead guy. I guess whenever someone well known dies, his reaction is always "who cares, he's dead".

He's the same type of person who makes fun if a ferry sinks and kills 200 people. When those random stories come out, most people will be indifferent as it's just another gruesome news bite and move on to another article. Some people will be kind of down as it's a bad event. He's the kind of guy would make a joke about it or tell people stop moaning about it since you dont know anyone on the boat anyway. I dont think he truly wants anyone to die on a sunken ship, but instead of just leaving the article and reading something else, he'll get in an edgy jab to spark the comments section to get attention.

In what sane world is mocking someone's death, then repeatedly telling other members "fuck you" or hiding a particularly vile insult behind his native language a "minor difference of opinion"?

He elevated his status from frequently confrontational asshole to human garbage with his behavior in this thread. It's not the first time he's had a crash out like this, if this were truly "purple territory" he would have been perm'd LONG ago.

Anyway back on topic, RIP to Mr. LeFay and fuck cancer. Many on this board are getting up there in age so don't skip out on your cancer screens.
 
The Elder Scrolls is a juggernaut in gaming,
Rest in Peace Julian. I hope the next ES game can bring back the magic that's been missing from Bethesda games since Skyrim.

Glad to see Rofif gone he is a sewer rat.
 
Some twat acts like a twat then gets mad about being called a twat, and continues acting like a twat with a reddit athiest tier rant. In a memorial thread no less.

Julian LeFey was an inspiration to many and helped create an industry titan. May he find his peace.
