Isn't this a good thing. So the lead wanted to do something else, the creative team wanted to do something else. The lead leaves because his ideal isn't in line with the teams ideal. That then opens up the position to be filled with someone who is in line with the ideal of the team. The best thing is always that the team is passionate about what they are doing because if not, you will always get sub par results. |
But the decision was already made so it's too late, Lol.
It seemingly went like this.
Rod: I want to make a choice ending for Gears 5.
The Rest of Coalition: We don't like that.
*Rod implements it anyway, with no future plan or follow-up*
*Rod leaves the studio*
Leaving the team who didn't like it to figure out what to do now with a decision that has already been implemented.
Honestly wouldn't be surprised if this is a major reason why we're getting a prequel instead of Gears 6 first, because the team doesn't know what to do with what Rod left them.
