Todd on FO3:'Uh... it's currently... full steam ahead.'

[MrBumble]

The problem here is that whoever transcribed that didn't bother to clean it up like every professional journalist does (even though that would have amounted to less work). Then again, maybe that's too much to ask from a fansite. It'd be nice you didn't make information harder to get than it already is.

Dude... It's ( almost ) understandable. Not NMA's fault if Todd, y'know, doesn't feel at ease when asked about Fallout 3 plus there's very little information to get...uh... If you didn't get the humor in this transcription there's no need to get angry at those who actually did.

I agree that "fucktard" was exagerated but you gotta admit that he sounded like a...stuttering fucktard....uh.

Actually, we do this on purpose. If Bethesda shows a complete lack of professionalism by giving inaudibly bad audio interviews, either from Todd or Pete, then we do not become their press agency with a job to clean up their ineptitude.

Does that make us unprofessional? No, it makes us critical.

OK fucktard speak like a normal motherfucker! Shit this annoys me. It was so dificlut to read though, as he always hesitated and avoided questions.

Dickhead!

It's a factual transcription of what Tod said, there's nothing more "professional" than that. If you didn't liked it go bother Tod, he's the one that talks like that.

And if you didn't catch the humour on the newsbit than by all means go away to the er, "professional" sites you love so much.

Actually, we have a cleaned-up transcript sitting in my PM inbox (courtesy of VDweller). We intentionally transcribed it ourselves, however, because this interview isn't half as interesting without Todd's bumbling.

Well, I aspire to be a professional journalist when I grow up, so ... uh ... why should professional journalists clean up what appears to be an advanced form of intellectual deficiency and turn this semi-retarded mumblings into something more coherent?

"Um... yeah, we have very long... what we... what we describe as preproduction... Y'know, for us it's very, very, very long... At the end of preproduction for us we have... something you can play... this is... this is, this is what the game... "

"Now Todd Howard himself - I hear people whinge and whine about Todd all day, people [censored]ing about the effort he has put in to Oblivion, how he sucks, how he "Doesn't read books" well, the truth is;

Todd Howard earns more money than you.
He probably drives a Jag or some other car you will only see in the motoring magazine
He probably owns a massive house
He is well respected
He has admiration from MILLIONS
He is probably better looking than you
He probably has more friends than you"

Coincidentally, the thread is called "Fallout 3, Possibly the greatest game ever?"

I'd say brilliantly written troll, if it weren't for the fact that it isn't one.

Also, the quote for the day goes to:

Ill buy Fallout 3 regardless of how much it may suck.
I hope it is near Oblivion quality really.

Everyone who expects it to be even REMOTELY like the previous ancient games please just get over it already and try to make the best.

Now how's that for idiocy.

 

[Brother None]

Well, technically, there isn't that much wrong with that sentence. Fallout 3 has the possibility to be the greatest game ever. Any game does.

But the implied meaning is idiocy

 

[Ratty Sr.]

Now, if there was a way to package sex in a bottle it would look like Tabascombat if there was a way to put it in a box carved into a lump of plastic it would look lik A. Oblivion or B. Fallout 3 - that's right, it would look like fallout 3.

Now I'm sure that Fallout 3 is going to rock your socks off, or at the very least it should give you priapism and weak knees.

What Fallout 3 whingers say: WRONG

The truth: RIGHT

Then, a few paragraphs later:

Stop being so prejudiced and pathetic while whining about Fallout - you wanted info about Oblivion and many of you were "Disappointed" by Oblivion when it arrived - so stop complaining about fallout and how you *think* it is going to turn out, as if you have some massive degree of clairvoyance - which you don't.

Personally, you should wait for ANNOUNCEMENTS rather than making assumptions and prejudicial statements.

So it's wrong to criticize Fallout 3 (based on credible sources indicating that it's going to be an insipid munchkinfest like Oblivion, no less), but it's okay to say that Fallout 3 "is going to rock your socks off"? Nope, no double standards there at all.

Just like it was ok 6 months ago to praise the awesomeness of Oblivion, but not to criticize it in any way because "its liek u didn't play teh gaem yet!!!" The dumb fuckers never change.

Well, technically, there isn't that much wrong with that sentence. Fallout 3 has the possibility to be the greatest game ever. Any game does.

I'd have to disagree here. After playing Oblivion, it's much easier for me to believe in Santa Claus than in getting even a "good" (not "very good", and certainly not "great") game from Bethesda Softworks and its lying employees.

I found this pre-release quote at the Codex today:

MSFD aka Steve Meister: "Yeah, I'm biased, and I don't expect anyone to take my word for it -- but I think Oblivion is one of the most amazing games I've ever played. I think that even the doubters are going to be surprised, though they may not admit it out of stubbornness."

If you were looking for mindless ass-sucking, I'd like to clue you in that you're no longer on the GameBanshee site, so that might clear up some of your apparent confusion. Go back there if you want to put on kneepads and mindlessly slobber all over Todd along with them and others in their happy media glory hole dance.

If you want news that pertains to Fallout, come to here or DAC, or a number of other fansites.

Fan doesn't mean asslicker. Asslicking is GameBanshee's job.

A Fallout fan is someone who has had one excellent game that stood for certain design concepts when others were bowing and dying to trends years before (like Ultima 8 around 1994), a "good" game that might have had some problems (bugs and easter eggs, but the same general design), a spin-off that is neither a good Fallout game nor a good tactical game (if you've played decent ones, like X-COM), and a shitty crackheaded console game that was put into production with the canning of BIS in lieu of Fallout 3.

So, as Fallout fans, are we going to report about the next foolish primadonna's mistakes?

You better fucking believe it, kid.

It'd be nice you didn't make information harder to get than it already is.

Oh, really? As if Todd and Pete don't already do this without their speech/mental impediments...

I'd have to disagree here. After playing Oblivion, it's much easier for me to believe in Santa Claus than in getting even a "good" (not "very good", and certainly not "great") game from Bethesda Softworks and its lying employees.

After this, I'm hiding Easter Eggs, and I'm not even Christian.

Hellooooo Easter Bunny!

Stubborness? Just because Oblivion might impress a few of the console retards with how shiny it is, in particular every Bethesda employee that speaks about it, doesn't mean that it automatically means good things for Fallout 3 or any other title Bethesda is developing.

Daggerfall was the best game BethSoft ever created! Thats when they really did live by the "FOR GAMERS BY GAMERS" code.. those days are long gone now! Just because Bethesda has our most prized franchised in the palm of thier hand and can crush our dreams at any moment.. doesn't mean that we have to like them and kiss thier ass! Especially in the NMA forums where you have the most die hard FO fans !Im gonna be honest I think Bethesda fell off ever since Battlespire..and after seeing them make crappy console games like Morrowwind and Oblivion, Im not to confident in having them develope anything with the FO name on it!

So BethSoft if ya reading this stop being shady and give the damn fans some real feedback and in the future please pick someone a little more competent and professional to release info in interviews!
Look at the fans here its been so long we still dwell on FO 1 and 2! Trying to keep hope alive just like if ya go visit the Elderscrolls Forums everyone is still dwelling on Daggerfall trying to get you all to release it again for download!So obviuosly this should mean something so get a freakin clue!

What you cant give the fans who have been waiting forever for another FO title anything useful about FO3 but some stupid StarTrek BS talk???

 

[Roshambo]

That code was NEVER Bethesda's, and since Todd came on board, Bethesda's code has been "For Profit By The Lowest Common Denominator, By Todd Howard".

Im gonna be honest I think Bethesda fell off ever since Battlespire..and after seeing them make crappy console games like Morrowwind and Oblivion, Im not to confident in having them develope anything with the FO name on it!

I never had much confidence in them, since I've known them for years. About the only passable thing they've internally developed was the TES series, which is going downhill every time Todd and Pete wipes their ass with it to rape for more money.

Todd and co aren't the original designers of TES. If you want the best examply of what they're going to do to Fallout 3 compared to the original games, there you go, TES serves as the best example. Ironically, it's also their flagship franchise, and Todd sees no problem in raping the design to fit on X-Box.

So Bethesda if ya reading this stop being shady and give the damn fans some real feedback and in the future please pick someone a little more competent and professional to realease info in interviews!

Well, that excludes MSFD, HayT, Pete, Todd, and a few other Bethesda employees. At this point, I'm fairly certain Scruffy the Janitor has more of a clue, and can actually form a coherent sentence. Pete and Todd are both supposedly involved with game development, and can't speak about it worth shit? What fucking use is a Lead that sounds like Meathead Mutt in interviews? Exactly how the hell can they convey their ideas and such?

By office memo?

"I'd uh...like to see...uh...if you can do some uh...work on...uh...stuff and things, things like uh...get uh...get them done..."

Yea that seems to be they way with mostly all of the latest games It would just piss me off to see it happen to such a hard core game like Fallout!
Very true Roshambo...I thats why I love the NMA Forums.. there are other people who feel the same way I do and aren't afraid to let others know! This forum is the best i dont care what others punk ass forums may may say!
We keep it real!

 

[Schuljunge]

We keep it real!

Word!
...

I dont know why are you so afraid of Fallout 3? If we have real good luck, they will put Editors and Stuff like that in this, so we can create our own mod, which gives us the feeling back including super high 3d graphics, thats perfekt! of course there also would be an easy dialoge editor, i hope so. so there is hope in the tunnel or whats that called.

when they fuck up the editors, too. then its over, i guess.

 

[SuAside]

i dont remember who said it first, but:

you can mod out the bugs and mistakes, but crappy design is forever. (or something along that line)

So I guess the fact that FOT had editors, which didn't help to do anything to make the game suck less, or even provide for even the same depth as expected.

Given Bethesda's treatment of speech systems...are you fucking kidding me?
