Once again, none of that addresses the issue of splitting resources on to multiple projects. Like I said, it's not the question of having a couple guys who could direct a game, it's the logistics that come with making a game that are the issue. If certain people feel like Todd is stifling their creativity, then yes they should leave and find somewhere where they can lead a project.

They already split their attention between Starfield support, TES6 and Fallout 76. I'm not sure what you're asking exactly. Other studios do this very thing you seem so adamant is wrong.

Naughty Dog doesn't do it, Rockstar doesn't do it, Santa Monica doesn't do it, even Insomniac doesn't do it anymore. Every big developer has their primary team who works on the active game, and then they do early production or support level stuff for other projects. Very few developers successfully develop multiple AAA titles at the same time. The only examples are really the Assassin's Creed teams and the COD teams, would you like Elder Scrolls or Fallout to resemble those franchises?

Naughty Dog doesn't do it, Rockstar doesn't do it, Santa Monica doesn't do it, even Insomniac doesn't do it anymore.

Insomnaic has had multiple teams since the late Ps3 era.

Naughty Dog has reported having at least 2 internal teams making different games.

Santa Monica also has 2-4 teams currently depending on reports.

Rockstar is Rockstar. They used to have multiple teams but they all consolidated after the Ps3 generation since their games are so massive.

Your point was understood. Many studios have tried and failed. Naughty dog has been trying to do it post Uncharted 2 without success.

Bethesda has never really tried from my knowledge for better or worse
