Indeed we do. And I'm glad you're all with me. I wouldn't know how to do this enormous task all by myself.

They're being kind, calling the person in charge a "Perfectionist".
Hang on. What happened to the original lead producer? Did they quit? If so how come ppl like BoredGamer haven't mentioned anything about that? OR
Perhaps they do need said experience because they're genuinely close to shipping a MVP beta of SQ42 after all?
You won't hear that from BoredGamer...since he's a bit of an Uberfanboi. Try the Noobifier, he can be a bit more objective...sometimes.
Angels need Devils to fight.
We don't know if this is a new role or to take over from someone who left or changed position.
Most likely the 16 year old senior producer who was in charge before has now been promoted to the board of directors or something.
Wouldnt the game rather need a creative director to design the game? Not much sense producing a thing that isn't properly designed.
They need actual, experienced, hit-the-ground-running network engineers before anything else, even baristas!
Hey wait a minute that's actually not bad idea maybe Harry Tuttle could be CIG new Lead Producer!!!No no no, they need highly-skilled plumbers for the pipeline!
At least that man knows how to fix/baypass the mess........

I think part of the problem is CR acts as creative director, but the creative director needs to be subordinate to the the production manager. This is the wrong way around at CIG, therefore the production manager can't say no to the creative director when he starts waving his hands around and saying Fidelity to everything.
Ok thanks. Is Salt E Mike (formerly Twerk? I think?) fairly decent as well?
Here's his latest review on SQ42. He seems really reasonable and well rounded i.e. still cautiously optimistic while not coming across as bitter, sarcastic or combative in delivery.

Hes still arguing and trying to deny reality even tho the cracks are showing. I m not taking him as a serious or credible source of SC related information. I remember all his fanboying or shilling too well but I check in from time to time in order to see "how far" hes gone. This is one of the guys whos not going to take it well once this things goes pearshaped.
Sounds like HR nonsense speak to me.
If it is the same job then this- ENJOY

VR in ED, is one of my greatest gaming experiences. I stood up in my room at home and could walk around my cockpit, even look at the legs/rear of the seat in great detail. Coming up in the hanger lift into the interior of the space station was fantastic. I recommend to anyone going out of their way to play ED in VR. Unfortunately SC has put VR on a very distant back burner.
Reading the job advert above, It seems that they have more than one person in this role so I'm not sure, is it a new role in Manchester or a replacement for a leaver? We would need a look at their management structure map to know for sure. This role reports to the Production director whoever that is. You guys who look into this deeper than me, do you have any idea where this job is the the CIG structure? That is the only way we can see if this is, Bad, really Bad, normal business or a sign of Doom.
Is that unusual to hire a lead producer at this stage of developpement?
I guess it is but...

Sooo, any chance of a game producer who had worked on two finished AAA games, who bought into SC and not yet part of CIG?
You are correct on both points. Have you played ED in VR?
Also thank you for your edit on your post earlier I appreciate it.
