In 2002, he was fired and 3.5 dropped in 2003...because the first go of 3E crashed and burned under Dancey.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Pathfinder Online was Dancey's baby, but ended up being one of the more epic failed Kickstarter projects that is...a bit much to go into here. But they managed to burn a lot of players, Dancey parachute out in 2015 as the project catered after delivering on approximately none of their promises that people paid for. </li> </ul></blockquote>
