For real though. Todd Howard needs to like, take some shrooms and meditate in the mountains. Touch grass. Given the headass shit he's said lately it's transparently clear he's one of the biggest things standing in the way of another decent Bethesda game- I think the days of those might be done for good, I hate to say.

Lots of the worst people in tech did this, and they just got worse....

Ehh but did they really though? Or did they microdose shrooms in chocolate bars and attend some bougie retreat at a ski resort? I'd say the latter is the real problem. Nobody has respect for anything anymore.

Fair dues. I mean Steve Jobs went full bore, and he was a fuckin scumbag.

The behind the bastards four part series on him was a huge eye opener into how incredibly terrible of a human being he was

That's where I learned exactly how shitty he really was. I had always kind of figured he wasn't a great person, people who rise to that level usually aren't, but I hadn't realised really how terrible he was.

Todd Howard, Pete Hines, and the other guy I can't think of his name right now, are the holy Trinity at Bethsoft. They figured out how to take the success of Morrowind and milk the shit out of it while "streamlining" every game.

The original ES creators said years ago the direction of the series is not what they would have done. And you can see how these three did the same thing to Fallout that they did with Elder Scrolls. Their "best" contributions have been creating DLCs and charging for mods. They've made bank for Zenamax. And that's all they care about.

They're creativitly bankrupt. I feel bad for the devs that grew up on the og elder scrolls games and became devs with the company.

That's fine, it's hardly as if we'll ever run out of good games to play. Hell, I haven't even gotten to AC6 yet and I've been looking forward to that for ages

He was ALWAYS the one standing in the way of good Bethesda games. He’s responsible for Redguard as the followup to Daggerfall. Redguard!

He should have been chased out of the industry decades ago.
