Are you going to lump Shigeru Miyamoto in that same bold claim?

Molyneaux is of course an extreme case, but I do find it remarkable how many of these “legends” of old utterly failed to replicate their success later down the line. Romero, Mitsoda, Roberts, so many more, all in the lamplight for their success in the 90s to very early 2000s, but utterly unable to live up to their reputation for near 3 decades after.

I would not. Not a single success I wouid attribute to Chris Roberts, because each of his projects was Star Citizen. A studio exec had to step in tell him to actually finish up each time, and for Freelancer he was literally kicked off the project.

Yeah. Dude has a bad management problem.
Star citizen could have been delivered by 2017 if they had stuck to their original goals. They could have always added more as updates. I guess he never learnt about mvp.
