How much control do you think the individual developers have in product decisions?

That's just a simplistic and appalling thing to say. Your other comment "They should just find another employer then" also shows a total lack of thinking and empathy. People need jobs and its not always easy to speak up if you disagree with decisions. Do you think its always easy to find another employment? A lot of people working for BioWare for sure had families and/or other financial responsibilities and its 100% valid to stay in a company to be able to fullfill these. Are you like 12 or just completely irrational? Anyway, grow up, really.

Its not my problem they chose an employer which hasnt delivered a single good game in over 12 years, its not on me to support bad products, they are the ones that put out an alienated version of a game which did not clicked with the audience ... Multipe times in a row.

If i fuck up at my job, i will be fired after a certain time, same goes for them, shouldve listend to thekr fanbase instead of the modern audience.

And I am saying that not all of them were responsible for the development of poor games. Also, no one asked you to support anything, you're reaching. Just not to say they "deserved it" because not everyone is responsible for this and people value stability due to adult responsibilities.

Equating this with the though of "If I mess up my job I get fired" is completely stupid. Completely different scenarios of ONE employee vs a big studio where decisions and outcomes are totally different and significantly more complicated.

Again. Grow up.

Those people supported it by working on it, if they didnt they wouldve choosen another job by then.

If not, its on themselves, nobody forced them to keep working for a studio whoms decision they did not support. Simpel as that, thats life nobody owns them anything, they worked for a company that has been known for over 10 years to not deliver anything worthwhile, they had more than enough time to find something else.

idc, what you think, mate in the end, ive had a job, switched jobs when coporates vision did not align with my own and will do so in the future.

You’re most likely talking to a 12-year-old. Or at the very least someone with very demolish mental capacities.
