If there is any lesson to be learned from this, it is that a legendary Doom mapper is nothing but a gift to have around, and you can never take if for granted that a map made by them won't be their last. So you should always be thankful for and enjoy everything you play from one.

He was a talented mapper and a texturing prodigy, he always had a positive outlook on life, and he never let his ailment stop him from doing what he loved. Esa Repo, I salute you.

I wish I had got to know Espi better. I only knew him from a few random convos we had, and didn't talk much after that. He was a cool guy, not to mention a talented mapper and contributor to the Doom scene. To think that all this happened... :(

It's really admirable just how long he held on, after facing problem after problem. He always seemed like he had a positive attitude.

R.I.P. Espi. Hope you're in a better place.

Terrible news :(

Although, reading through the blog I guess, in a way, it was probably for the best that he passed away in his sleep when he did. His strength of character and spirit astound me. Although I was only recently introduced to his works I feel it a shame that such a talent is now lost. I hope that, whatever may come next for him and his family, it is the most positive possible.

Damnit. I hardly knew him. But, I would like to offer my Empathy and Sympathy to Epsi's family and to the entire community. I understand what it's like to lose someone. Even in these hard times we must keep true to the faith and keep our spirits up, For even we are not Immortal and even we must pass away and return to the dust from whence we came. Therefore, Be strong everyone and always remember Him.

Yes, most certainly it is, and I really think this should have been placed under "Top Story". It's such a sad loss to the community. :(

Didn't know him personally, but he was one of the luminaries of the community and was well liked by those who did know him.

Anyway, Espi made stuff that has been of good to many people and that is as good a legacy/epitaph as any.

Oh dear! I'm so sorry to hear about his passing. I want to give my condolences for his friends and family. Since he fought the cancer that was in him for a long time, he proves himself to be a true Space Marine and I honor him for that. Rest in Peace of a great Doomer; we shall not forget. (Salute)

Though I didn't know Espi much outside of his blog post and playing through part of Suspended in Dusk (which I certainly need to finish now), I'm definitely sad to see him go.

My grandma caught polio when she was very young, and it left her without use of one of her arms. However, she was able to do just as much as others could with two arms. After reading this post and seeing the spirit Espi seemed to have, I knew if he could get over this he would have little trouble doing things as he used to. I think even with the right mouse he could have gotten pretty good at Doom again.

RIP Espi
