Didn't he also say that Fallout 3 would have hundreds of endings?

Either way you are right we shouldn't believe everything he/they tell us.

The truth worries me more than any lie Todd could fabricate...

What exactly did he lie about?

Don't worry everyone! You can trust https://youtu.be/gtlyMagZhXA?t=23s

You're new here, aren't you?

If you own Oblivion, you know the entire video of it's E3 presentation I linked is fabricated and heavily scripted. None of it is true, save for the very basic stuff like how topics work.

Honestly, if you want, we could make a catalog of all of the lies Todd Howard has spewed throughout the years.

I'll start us off with "You can effect Riverview's economy by killing off the sawmill workers! The game will react to it!"

eh, it麓s E3, salesman like over-glorifying of the game is norm, just bring a fist full of salt and you'll be fine

If we're giving cautionary reminders to everyone, here's mine:

You've got to want to like something before you can actually like it.

So you think he's a liar, but you're interested to play his game. Lol!

Regardless, it's good advice all the same. For all I care, Todd could be talking about real features that he desperately wanted in the game that got pulled 2 weeks before release; he'd STILL have a track record with giving us unreliable info.

Funny

But Bethesda didn't make Fallout and Fallout 2.

For one he said that Fallout 3 had over 200 endings from the time of the article and that it was not an exaggeration. I sure as hell didn't see over 200 hundred endings though.

It's E3 nobody expects the truth.

I expect some of this though: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mABmZETHaRE

And that is what we call a burn............

Seriously though. Yes, Todd Howard has been known to stretch the truth. In fairness, to him, when he gave that Oblivion presentation, what he was saying WAS true. They just had to change it for the final game because it turns out having NPCs that get into things based off their own AI tends to throw monkey-wrenches into everything. Not to mention, from the player's point of view, it LOOKS broken.

Overall, each of Bethesda's E3 presentations have been very representative of the final game. Take any grand statements with a grain of salt, but gameplay shown is likely to hold very true.

It is more to remind people not to fall for all the hype because it is often exaggerated or out right lies. The forums will explode over E3 and much of the discussions that will take place will be over nothing.

So yes it is exciting but lets not forget that there is a great chance we will just have smoke blown at us.

You are an entitled, naive, juvenile, bitter, spiteful [censored]. You've clearly never worked a day in your life and have no notion of what real responsibility is, or the compromises it can necessitate. Grow up.

Don't trust 'any' developer/publisher that doesn't regularly communicate with its fans on the forums or on social media.

The more tightlipped they are and the less they actively communicate with their fans the more grain of salt you should take with everything they say.

And Bethesda barely ever communicate on the forums and are extremely tightlipped.

Ya'll gonna need scoops of salt for Fallout 4.
