Today Tibiacast announced they will shutdown their service on June 30th or whenever the new Tibia 11.00 is released. RIP Tibiacast :(
A special thanks to John Högberg, Alexander Mihajlović and Ivan Vučica for creating and maintaining the service throughout all these years.
Wonder what will be next? Will someone make a new service? Who knows...
Here is their official goodbye letter:
Running Tibiacast for the last 7 years has been fun, educational and at times stressful. However, in the recent years our lives have changed. Both of us now have other full time jobs and our interest for Tibia itself has waned.
Due to the nature of our service we have been playing a constant game of catch up with CipSoft. Whenever they have made changes to Tibia, we've had to match them in Tibiacast. It's always been a precarious situation, and we've often worried that we'd be faced with an update that would be too difficult to support, and it seems that has now happened.
Tibia 11 brings some major changes and we've concluded that we'll not be able to support them. We simply don't have enough time right now in our lives to make it happen.
We have decided to close Tibiacast on June 30th, or when Tibia 11 replaces the old client, whichever comes first. The website will remain online to host the recordings for another 2 months to allow everyone to download and convert their old recordings.
We will continue to sell 1 month premium subscriptions via PayPal until June 1.
Those with premium time remaining when Tibiacast closes will be refunded.
No doubt there will be many questions. We'll try to answer them as best we can.
Thank you for this time.
Alexander and John
