Unfortunately making a "hit game" is the same as saying he will build the next Google/Facebook/Instagam/blah... Having been in the games industry for 10 years, then pivoting into something else it sounds like the OP expected his manager to look after (or even care) about his career / life etc. Doesn`t matter what industry your in, your boss has priorities. Last of which is your career/life but might appear to be on their list so as to keep you producing thus helps their priorities. (there are ofcourse exceptions but they are rare)
