Today, Soulbound Studios announced the hiring of Adam "Snipehunter" Maxwell as the Lead Designer on Chronicles of Elyria. We sat down with the former Rift, Star Citizen, and Revival game maker to chat about what he's bringing to the table for Soulbound's premiere MMORPG.

I guess he made a typo back then and confused START and FINISH.
beat me to it.
But yeah after making a living off the money people send in without a game the guy definitely should know all the answers. he has been around some of the best at saying what people want to hear.
Maybe on the topic this time?
Here... I will help you:
Do you find it strange that they are just hiring a "lead designer" now when up until a few weeks ago they were publicly targeting this timeframe for the start of their no wipe head start with full launch to follow by years end?
Are you alarmed that he most recently worked on StarCitizen and a Revival? Both of which had.... troubled development histories and one of which totally failed?

I don't know if I should feel bad for the studio or Adam. The guy worked on some of the worst games. He would display a boxed copy or poster of Auto Assault on their Revival live streams. I played it years ago and it shut down in months. Revival is a sad story about all the customers that fell for the "This is our passion project." They abandoned the customers and game.
I guess its a good match.
