What EXACTLY are Chris Wilson's duties as POE CEO?

Don't get me wrong, Chris is still leagues above the greedy tyrants EA and Actiblizz have!

BUT... what are Chris's duties? From an outside perspective, it seems like a mix of public relations and high-level corporate management... He seems to know a bit about everything all the time but never in depth...

Returning to poe in 3.27: ATROCIOUS game performance, 5/10 league and I apprently missed the loot back in the last league. The more things change the more they stay the same..

It is a marketing symbol that is supposed to legitimize the fairy tale that GGG is still "the same good old GGG, poor small Indie company" (please, please, support us with your money, we are soooo pooor) and not Chinese moloch TENCENT.

Why do I CARE...? Why do I care about the leadership of a game I've dropped like a thousand hours into??? Nope I don't care at all...!

Just mindlessly carry on like a GOOD WAGESLAVE not questioning the SYSTEM...! Don't THINK!

"f2p" means "free to play" not "free to peacockingaroundinshinymtxs"

Of couse cosmetics cost... HOW are they supposed to pay their bills and personnel, when no money comes in? ^^

In a sense, yes, that's almost exactly what we paying players do.
Sorry, you can't say "who cares?" or your post will be deleted by PoE etiquette police (they are always watching).

Chris is GGG's frontman and as such he is mostly doing PR stuff.

Necessity may be the mother of invention, but poor QoP in PoE is the father of frustration.

I heard he makes sure all the snacks and coffee are fully stocked, and does maintenance on the pinball machines and arcade games.
Here you go..

CEO Responsibilities:
Provide inspired leadership company wide. Make high-level decisions about policy and strategy. Report to the board of directors and keep them informed. ... Work with the executive board to determine values and mission, and plan for short and long term goals.
There is a fine line between Consideration and Hesitation.
The former is Wisdom, the latter is Fear.
