Woah. WOAH. Definitely wasn't expecting this. You were the mod of VG back when I first got into the section. Welcome back! For probably the day! That's my bet, $20.
We were in something of a similar boat, I'd say. I suppose I've become a fair bit jaded after how crushed I was by Pearl and didn't really get any sort of spark back until XY, despite remaining heavily cynical in regards to the game. But that's slowly changing, and I feel pretty similar about S&M and GO, so here's to the future, I suppose.
And visit VG. Seriously. It's changed a lot and often since you left, and I'm interested to see if you might enjoy it there as it currently is. And check out Art and Design/Creative Media and show those kiddies what a professional can do, yeah? When you said "big films", I definitely wasn't expecting things like Interstellar and the various Marvel movies. Yikes. You've certainly been busy since you left. Good for you, man.
But I think the most shocking thing of all of this is that your name is Will and you modded VG and I'm William and do the same. Things like that don't happen too often on PC, so clearly we were meant to get along. From young blood to older, it's good to see you back, Cap'n.
