Linda “Brasse” Carlson, Senior Community Manager for SOE has posted this update on the EQ2 Forums:
After many years of service, Alan “Brenlo” Crosby has decided to leave SOE to pursue other opportunities. And while it is sad to see him leave, we wish him the best of luck in his new endeavors.
At this time, we’d like to take a moment to introduce EverQuest II’s new producer, Dave Georgeson. Dave is excited to join the EQII Team and will be posting an introduction in the near future.
According to EQ2 Zam, Dave’s resume includes SOE’s Planetside and Free Realms, and his LinkedIn page says he’s been back at SOE since February.
Dave Georgeson is apparently coming back to SOE after working at MobyGames.
Dave is currently the Producer, Director and Lead Designer for the casually-oriented MMO at Gaia Online that has had over 500,000 players in the first month of Open Beta.
Dave has previously designed and produced : zOMG!, Planetside, Tribes 2, Heavy Gear II, Absolute Zero, and Crusaders of Might & Magic.
And the merry-go-round of bad producers goes ever onwards.
Lets hope he’s an improvment, cough
