Fallout or Elder Scrolls?It's got to be a real kick in the dick to have been a member of the original team. You're basically watching a dude take all the credit for an IP he didn't produce, and whose only contribution to the IP was to dumb it down to a digestible level for generation "console."
Shameful.
Fallout or Elder Scrolls?
BAZINGA
and then as project leader and designer of The Elder Scrolls Adventures: Redguard (1998).
It took a while for Google to fix their summary of Fallout 1 to not be a picture of Fallout 3. Todd didn't even made TES. Video games awards without fail are bullshit.Of course he created Fallout. Fallout 3's the first Fallout game after all.
I really doubt Todd has much say in what really goes into these games.
Essentially, he is just the middle man between Bethesda Game Studios and Zenimax. He is there to make money for Zenimax first and to do so, he needs to find a way to bring in the biggest audience. If Morrowind is anything to go by, we know he can be a really good game dev.
He probably overlooks the project and takes credit for keeping the team stable.
So it's no surprise he would be the person Zenimax and Bethesda would want to push for being the sole creator. He should certainly take credit for leading and directing these games, but not for inventing them.
That's just bad journalism.
Which part tells it?
Anyway, there are still people in the USA who think earth is flat and was built in seven days.
Honestly, I think the problem with gaming journalism is that we treat it like its supposed to be academic, when in reality most game journalists just want to express there views.I could never take mainstream (game) critics/press serious. It doesn't even surprise me anymore.
