DayZ lead Dean Hall to step down by end of year
"I have a specific use. I'm really good at risk-taking and making other people take risks, I've always been good at that in my life," said Hall. "But eventually, that's the bad person to have. Eventually, you don't want the guy telling you to go over the top and get through. So at some point I'll be a disaster for the project, at least in a leadership role."
Hall said he won't leave the DayZ community in a lurch, which now numbers over 1.5 million people, but he didn't intend to be with the project this long.
Hall says, "That's why it's better to just address the elephant in the room. It's also fairer for Bohemia as well, rather than for me to just turn around one day and say 'see ya'." Bohemia had no comment on Hall's departure.
Hall says DayZ can never be the multiplayer game with the spark he wants it to be and he'll continue to "chase that" in his new company.

I read an article about this earlier and he basically said that he was doing it so he could spend more time with them after being away for developing games and being in the military.
Hopefully he is doing what's right for himself.

I hope he is doing whats right for himself. DayZ has never really appealed to me though. I much prefer the way "Nether" looks than DayZ.
