I think they will do fine without him, really there is no reason for him to return. If they can't get their act together and produce a great sim based of over 10 years experience in the market, then they deserve to fail. And I don't think he would have left if he knew his team wasn't up to the challenge.
Well now again, I didn't say they WOULDN'T do fine without him. I said that its a pity they no longer have his input and that they weren't better off without him.

As for the Russian pylons, I don't know why that was the case. I can't say it was bias without that.

But again, even if it was - I think we would never have got IL2 or CLoD without Oleg, and I think that kind of person's input is always welcome. Too many other companies and teams, without such a strong lead, would have cut corners a long time ago. It's a bit like Apple and Steve Jobs. Sure, Apple is doing fine without him and in many ways his input was that of an unwelcome autocrat. But ultimately the value of a person like that can only be measured when you consider what might never have been.
