Nobody likes idea guys. They disappeared for the most part since they figured out they can type their braindead ideas into genAI, but if I had a dollar for every "what if AAA game, but VR/other bad twist" ideas people wanted me to make, then I'd be a millionnaire.

Professional (Successful) Idea guys are worth their weight in platinum. I've only ever worked with a couple of those. It's the armchair ones that hurt so damn much.

I've seen a guy take a bland game/engine, a few devs/artists, a whiteboard and make a really successful AA game in about 6 months.
