On big projects like this, the game director isn't also the lead game designer. Or at least they shouldn't. That's the whole point of having these 2 positions in the first place
It doesn't sound like he's designing. He's only (dis)approving the designers work.
Yeah tbh the article doesn't really help to determine how much he's micromanaging but that's basically where the issue lies. According to the example in the article it does sound like he's stepping on the art director's boundaries regarding creatures design though
