A staggering lack of understanding of the industry - Full Artist Frontier Developments Employee Review

The company is mostly run by people in their mid 40s and older which are so out of touch with what a modern game is and what the new development tools are that most of the best people are fleeing the company because they feel hopeless and don’t want their names associated with the mess that Elite Dangerous is. The salaries are among the lowest in the video game industry in the UK. There is no room to express creativity and try to make a genuinely great game , the profit of the company comes first and investors have to be pleased, so you’re just going to deal with lifeless big franchises that most of the employees do not want to work on. The CEO has no clue whatsoever what it takes to make a videogame these days, but no one is willing tell him that this is hurting the company.
