Did Josh ever correctly know what was good about any one of his games?

Over the years, I've come to expect that games that Sawyer's involved with are good in spite of him, rather than due to him. He's good at project managing though, apparently.
all obisidian ever did was flawed gems, mostly flawed from bugs and shit gameplay that could had been play tested. All stuff that sounds suspiciously like what the head developer should be handling, if he does anything at all. some middle manager that only knows how to talk, look the other way on embezzlement, steal credit, and throw an LGBT flag over failure

Sawyer is by far one of the most open developers about what he's responsible for and what he does. He makes mistakes, but overall he's one of the best designers Obsidian has.

(though this says more about how lousy most Obsidian designers are)

Sawyerless Obsidian projects give you The Outer Worlds and Avowed. Quality stuff, right? :roll:

You're aware he has credits before Obsidian, right?

Obsidian was always kind of shit.
That's just the truth.
Other than titles like Kotor 2 and New Vegas (though overrated as all hell), what else is there?
Oh and both those titles need fan patches to reach their full potential...

Josh Sawyer isn't hungry anymore. I don't know what it is, because it happens to so many developers in the industry, maybe it is burnout, maybe he's just too wealthy, too distanced from being a player of the game himself or just becoming old. The reason doesn't matter, it just happens all over the industry all the time.

He used to have something, yes. Now he doesn't. Now he makes games like Pentiment.

He's thirsty more like...
Thirsty for OnlyFans thots if the rumors are true.

He has been scrubbing his history to cover this up badly.

I like how it is also showing his disdain for gamers, by writing it like that. You know, the ones that made his career, by buying and liking his game.
