Ex developer at Bethesda quit his job after 14 years and made this heavy metal horror game as a solo dev with no publisher

It took about 3.5 years, but now it's actually coming out in less than two weeks. I'm really excited to see what people think of it and it has been cool watching streamers react to the demo. Somehow my two story tall tree guy is really good at sneaking up on people. :D

Yeah I dunno. Journalist who worked at cnn 20 years quits to make own newspaper wouldn't do it for me either
Flip the conversation. What WOULD show a level of experience that equated to quality to you?
What specifically he worked on, really.
He could've been the UI/UX programmer, he couldn't been the enemy AI programmer or etc etc. I know that programmers wear many hats but I can say I am a 3D modeling software developer for 12 years, but the fact that I worked mostly on moving data between languages and API creation means that I wouldn't have the correct set of skills necessarily to create good 3D software
Take the focus off this exact scenario and Bethesda Dev. Throughout the thread, there has been several other scenarios presented but none have hit home with you. What I'm asking is, what previous qualifications for a new role in an exact industry would be something you'd accept as proof of validity?
This isn't meant to be confrontational, I'm legitimately curious. I see these sentiments a lot on the Internet and it leads to a flurry of downvotes without anyone asking the person receiving them what would be their desired outcome / goal.
So to frame it in that regards, would someone being a lead engine developer give more credence to a solo project? Being a project manager? Having a varied CV that showed growth across a company providing a base understanding of several different disciplines without a targeted focus on one? Or something as simple as "they worked on the questlines that I personally liked"?
Genuinely interested in what would make YOU happy or impressed by an announcement like this.
Journalism on CNN is alright, it's the political commentors that have been bought.
