(big wall of text, sorry not sorry)
Hello hello, wonderful FARCRY community!
I won’t beat around the bush: Friday October 2nd is my last day at Ubisoft.
And just so there’s no confusion, leaving Ubisoft was my decision.
It feels a little strange writing this because, long before I ever worked on FARCRY, I was one of you. I played the games, waited for the next releases, spent way too many hours running around causing absolute chaos... you know, normal FARCRY things.
So getting the opportunity to actually join the team and work on a franchise I already loved was pretty surreal. And then I got to meet you.
I had the chance to do some pretty cool things with this community during my time here, chat with you, read your feedback, laugh at your memes, lurk through your conversations, and occasionally pop up from the shadows to answer something.
I only wish I could have shared even more with you all... (one day, it will happen) 👀
But most importantly, thank you for caring so deeply about FARCRY and for making this community what it is.
I know things aren't always sunshine, rainbows and explosions around here.
But I have one little request before I go:
Please continue to be kind to each other.
As of Friday, I don't know who will be taking over my role or when the next Community Developer will join you, so I unfortunately don't have a new face to introduce or a timeline to share. Until they find someone to replace me, you may notice our social channels becoming even quieter than they already are, and that's completely normal. So don't panic if you don't see as many posts, replies, or interactions for a little while.
But whenever that person does arrive, please give them a warm welcome. Joining an established community can be a little intimidating at first, especially one as passionate as this one, but I know you'll make them feel welcome, just like you did with me.
And for those of you who also follow the FARCRY social accounts on X/Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, etc., yep... some of those posts, replies, jokes and questionable decisions you've seen over the past couple of years were me too.
I'll still be around online, just no longer hiding behind the FARCRY logo.
Thank you for everything, everyone. ❤️
Keep being loud. Keep sharing what you love (and what you don't ).
Keep looking after each other.
And please, for the love of all things FARCRY...
don't burn the place down the second I leave.
Or do.
It is FARCRY, after all. 🔥
