Gears of War series creator Cliff "CliffyB" Bleszinski shared some positive and candid thoughts about Gears of War: E-Day during a video interview. Though he was not involved in the development of Gears of War: E-Day, Bleszinski's contributions laid the foundation for the entire Gears of War franchise.

Bleszinski started his career as a game developer during his teenage years in the early 1990s. Shortly after joining Epic Games, Bleszinski went to work on games such as Jazz Jackrabbit and Unreal Tournament, with the latter being considered one of the most influential titles ever. Bleszinski later became the co-creator of Gears of War, where he was also the chief designer of the series' first three entries. Microsoft later acquired the rights to the Gears of War series in 2014, two years after Bleszinski left Epic Games.

A wave of negative Steam reviews hits Gears of War: E-Day at launch, with players divided over the reasons behind the backlash and controversy.

With Gears of War: E-Day already setting records , Bleszinski weighed in on the direction of the franchise he created. " He recalled seeing a trailer for E-Day that showed Marcus Fenix throwing a TV a Locust Horde unit as a way to demonstrate just how powerful the Locust were. " Bleszinski then said that he was disappointed to see that camera shaking during character movement was not present. However, Bleszinski stated that, if camera shaking was the only qualm he had about the game, then he believed that the franchise was heading in the right direction.
