Having realised that posting a blog venting one's frustrations and proclaiming in said blog that you're quitting the industry might just be news worthy - he retracts, a little.
Partly to blame for "leaving this industry" was the negative press his game received which he said gave him "too much stress", making him "ill and become an alcoholic".
"This is basically a blog post to announce that I won’t be continuing in videogames," he originally wrote.
"I'm going to finish off Eternity’s Child chapter 2 and 3 and the Wiiware one (which should probably come end end 2008)."
"There is probably several reasons for me leaving this industry," he continued. "The press can really destroy you morally, too much stress (kind of made me ill and become an alcoholic)."
However now having realised that news site where running with his blog ranting he decided to post a 'clarification':
"I wrote something here and then realised everyone has posted a news about it, and right now I am slapping my head, wondering like what the fuck have I done again, so basically if you’re here you already know what I wrote fucking shit
And yes I AM STILL SUPPORTING EC PC AND I WILL BE DOING THAT FOR A LONNGGGG TIME, AND EC WIIWARE IS STILL COMING OUT
Just no more future games that’s all.
Phew god, what have I done or said again, I am quite embarrassed right now, especially i never knew big sites would report this"
A videogame receives less than stellar reviews, it's creator reveals his chucking his toys out the pram, and becoming ill and boozed up - he honestly didn't think this was something the "big sites" would pick up on?
