Dave Georgeson and Brasse are gone.

EQN's future is bleak.

Story: Company that purchased SOE would like to actually make progress towards the release of its largest title.

I'm sure his position (if not his name directly) were discussed before Columbus Nova purchased it. This comes a bit sooner than I thought, but how can it not be expected?

May this be a lesson to male pony tails everywhere.

They fired Dave so they could hire Brad. Incoming- Oxyquest: Next

As much as I loved Dave's charisma, he just had some design decisions that made me scratch my head. Sorry to hear he's gone but I'm glad the project might get some different direction.

eqn was already dead the moment they wasted everyones time with sand during the unveil

glad georgeson is gone, such a shitheel. Didnt know how to do anything technical, the features he pioneered in eq2 no one ever gave a shit about. I think he was probably only good at milking the customer ( he is pretty much responsible for the f2p marketplace, and having content sold to players as piecemeal)


but yeah that kermit the frog sounding motherfucker has in my opinion took the last steamy shit on the eq franchise. He was just a used car salesman selling crack to a crack addict.
