A Fireside Chat: A Thank You Letter And a New Year

Hey team,

I hope this letter finds you well and that you are enjoying the holiday season with your friends and family.

As we enter a new year, I wanted to take the time and write to all of you and thank you for making 2018 a pretty good year for the site. I’m just one man enjoying the thing that I always had a passion for and to see a lot of support from longtime supporters and from new ones, I just wanted to thank you. I’ll always be thankful for your support that the community has given me, so here is a little thank you note.

I’m just one man and the support that you have given me throughout the year has been astonishing. I can’t demand your time nor attention, I can only do my best to earn all of that, and to return a volley of content that I hope entertains, informs, and maybe people can learn something from. In order to keep up with that, there will be some changes to the site.

2018 was a big year for the site. As we enter 2019, this will be the fourth year that Galaxy has been going strong and it has been going strong so far. However, I wanted to change things up so the content doesn’t get stale or boring so I’m in the midst of a revision to the site. Some new revisions will go live throughout the early months of 2019, for example, I’m working on a new logo for the site, will be rebranding the site tomorrow ( more on this tomorrow.) and lastly introducing Backlog and Indie reviews, things that I wanted to do for a very long time and I just kept pushing it back. As you may remember, I wanted Galaxy’s content to hinge on a limited set of content that changes with your whims and desires, as well as my own. The new Indie reviews spawned because of your comments and Backlog spawned because I just kept pushing reviews for BioShock 2 and Sniper Elite 4 back. Galaxy has no clear definition, it is what we make of it.

Lastly, on one final note, I opened up a patreon back in December 2017. If you want to donate to the site, the link is down below. Your help will go towards maintaining the site and make the site look better in general. If you want to jump in and help the site then you can do so at $1 USD up to $8 USD but it’s all up to you. If you want to read and enjoy the content without paying then you can do so and you will also be helping the site. I’m doing this for my enjoyment and for fun but money always helps. I just figured to ask again if you were on the fence or were considering on helping. ( No EA or Activision BS here.)

As always, your feedback and criticisms is very much welcome. You can leave your comments here or either on my personal or Galaxy twitter. I pretty much answer back quickly.

2018 was full of ups and downs but you guys helped make it a little bit better. Here’s to a great 2019! I’m wishing you and yours nothing but the best and thank you for everything.

If you have been here for years or are new, thank you for everything.

Sincerely and Cheers,

DJ.
