What do you think of Todd Howard

[Fallout Guy117]

As the title says, what do you think of Todd Howard?

 

[Vergil]

Pretty Little Liar

 

[RavagersPre]

He looks like Ramsay from GoT and knows as much about Fallout as he does.

 

[Marionettetc]

Talentless dildo

 

[0wing]

Horribly terrible gamedesigner. If he also deals with management then also terrible manager. 76 years, I don't even...

 

[valcik]

I think he wears velvet underwear.

 

[R.Graves]

1. I think he's cute
2. He's got at least 9 charisma
3. He's an awful game designer
4. I get kind of a sociopath vibe from him

 

[Kohno]

He knows how to play his core audience, that's for sure.

To be fair most anybody can manipulate idiots.

 

[kraag]

he's petes bitch, i reckon he's a catcher

I don't think Todd Howard is to blame for what Bethesda does to Fallout tbh. Obsidian said that he was really happy to go along with anything as there boss. This was good because it means we get an awesome game like New Vegas, however when dealing with the writing team for Fallout 3 and 4 its not a good quality.

Well skyrim was really impressive if only because it managed to make a civil war with dragons boring.

 

[Erich van Loon]

Eh, I think Todd is an OK guy. He's generally chill, and he did admit FO4 did have flaws, so he's not all bad.

Ayy lmao.

He's a smart guy but he's just in it for the money.

"There were six of us at the time, right? The studio had gotten that small, and I was in charge of Morrowind, but by that time, once you get to that point, there was this element of no fear. What’s the worst that’s gonna happen? We could go out of business. Well, let’s go all in. This is the game. Let’s put all our chips on the table. This is the game people want from us, this is the game we wanna do." - Todd Howard​

This quote shows, Morrowind was good because they said "screw it" and they weren't in it for the money, they were going to go bankrupt either way so for once they put vision over profit and made something that they wanted, not what the big money wanted.

 

[MercenarySnake]

What do I think of Todd? Well:

Someone that clearly can't keep promises or tell the truth.

 

[Brivoo]

He should've been the PR guy.

 

[Borov]

Todd huh...

Nope. Cant think of anything.

Personally I don't think much of him, he is damn lucky how his career and life turn out and the lifestyle he can afford.
But I don't find him a brilliant game designer or project lead and I suspected that sooner or later his career will decline when Bethesda's current customers move on to other games or interest or don't have time any more for gaming because of other priorities. (work for example)

One thing I have to say, there is something about his voice and appearance that for some reason really makes me want to reach out and throttle him.
I am not a violent person but somehow that impulse keeps coming up whenever I hear him.

He is kinda like the trope that was very popular in movies from the 80s. A little prick with a rich dad. For some reason he has always reminded me of that, thus my personal need to punch him.

Sounds hot. Though I picture It the other way around.
