The fact that multiple producers are leaving BioWare in relatively rapid succession (this is two in the same week) is a bad sign.
I wouldn't be surprised if EA is realigning the company on an internal level and asked a bunch of producers to step down rather than be fired.
Wasn't one of the Kotaku articles of this year putting a lot of blame on producers at Bioware for their "it'll come together at the end" mentality?
