There actually is some truth to that "Five years" thing. I think thats about the right incubation time for a Bethesda game, since 3-4 years is the standard right now, and loads of things get cut. I sure would have loved Skyrim with some actual seasons, primary needs, and other cool things that were axed as they needed to make time for the core game.

I don't like his methods and his ideas related to gaming in general. I couldn't care less about his voice.

I find games are better if they are made by the owner of the IP.

Who says I am not role playing.

So if Activision bought Fallout tomorrow and started creating new primarily multiplayer FPS Fallout games every year that were nearly identical to each other it would be ok because they own it?

I love Todd Howard he's good at what he does, but his talents and Bethesda's as well as more importantly there weaknesses aren't apt for Fallout.

When people say Fallout 3 is a great game but a so-so fallout game that can be extended to Bethesda themselves and the Fallout series.
