Rabbit Man is sad today because Rabbit Man heard the news that Jonathan Lien is leaving his post as producer for Blade and Soul.
“I wanted to let you know that this is my last week as producer of Blade and Soul as I am departing to pursue other opportunities,” Lien posted on the forums. “I can hardly believe it’s been four years on this project and I wanted to extend my sincere thanks to the entire community for their support, enthusiasm, and passion. I’ll always cherish the memories of the launch party and World Championships as some of the happiest moments of my life.”
Lien had been the producer for the western version of the MMO since January 2015. Before taking taking the lead for Blade and Soul, Lien worked in QA for both NCsoft and Blizzard. He will be succeeded by Nicolas Coutant, who used to be the original producer of the game.
