    Default What influence, if any, do ex-modders-turned-CA have on future titles?

    Referring to modders over time that have gone on to work for CA, Lusted... recently Mitch... etc.

    For example, should we expect to see a population system in the next historical title now Mitch has joined CA (after his hard work on the population mod for Rome)?

    The same with engine limitations perhaps, and modding tools... Given that they know how hard it is to mod without them, is it likely that future titles will be easier to mod?

    My personal opinion: no. Zero influence whatsoever. They got hired for their skills not their ideas. There is a game designer for that. Which means, they will do what is asked of them because they are now employees. So they have no control over anything.
