`I knew he left... but good for him.
I'd rather just see him write characters or something..not lead whole projects. It doesn't seem to be his thing anyways.

He is Creative Director at Beamdog, which means he is in charge of whole projects, probably more so than he was at BioWare. Hmm.. I stand corrected. But I always liked his character writing. I would hope he just focuses on it at least. And at the very least, if they do DnD, he doesn't need to invent setting or campaigns in the same way.

Sorry, I deleted my other post because I thought I misunderstood your meaning, but apparently I was correct. Anyway, yeah, Gaider is the boss of whatever he is working on over there.

He has a good point, one which most people in Bioware don't seem to have taken on board. Sometimes it's best in game development to bring in new talent and outsiders to run the place rather than just promoting people who've been there a long long time.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought / was under the impression that BioWare has recently / during the last few years taken in a lot of new talent & has been hiring new people...?

Some of the glassdoor reviews werent favourable and a lot of talent did leave Montreal.

I'm glad he directly addressed the annoying "Bioware is going down in flames because a few people went on to pursue other jobs when they had finished" meme.

That kind of talk will never go away, unfortunately. It'll lessen somewhat if Andromeda is a slam dunk but people will always hate on EA and Bioware for "selling out". Anyway, it sounds like he's enjoying himself over at Beamdog. I've never played any of their games but I'm curious to see where DG goes creatively. Some of his characters (Dorian, Cassandra) are my among my favorite Bioware companions. I wish I had interest in the isometric rpgs but I prefer AAA rpg titles now to any thing else. Regardless, I hope he succeeds at his new job.
