I really hope that's a joke. Ken is wallowing away on a title that I think is going to flop. Plus he's working with Curt Schilling. Give me a break.

What does working with Curt Schilling mean? Is that a bad thing or something?

You forgot to mention that he's working with one of the best selling fantasy authors in the world and the creator of Spawn.

It's not that I dislike Todd, so much as he's really the only member of the "oldschool" still working at Bethesda other than Ashley Cheng and a few unnamed folk. I feel as if folks like Rolston and Julien Lefay, even if they didn't do as much good for the gameplay, were a major influence on the atmosphere and freedom of the series. :shrug:

But then again, I suppose gameplay should be the focus here.

LMAO Ken Rolston is limited by his employer's budget, demands and resources like any other game designer. He already proved himself with Morrowind.

What kind of [censored] is that to say about someone you don't know? What is wrong with you? Why is he "no good" or a "has been"? The guy is a Hall of Fame pitcher who retired from a sport he loved because he got too old to compete at the level he's accustomed to. He's got more money than God in the bank and has a love for fantasy and video games so he started his own design studio.

Sounds like a pretty [censored] successful life to me. What do you do? Eat gummy bears and talk [censored] about people you don't know on the internet?

Calm down. I'm a long time Yankees fan, so there's a lot of history there. The way you're defending him I take it your either a Red Sox fan or Diamondbacks fan. Seems like I really struck a nerve.

i would give up khajits for seperated armor.

i would give up console graphics for cutting edge DX11 graphics with all the bells and whistles that make my i7 quad core and nvidia 580 (well soon to be a 580 when i buy it this fall) cry like a little girl. i want them to talk about skyrim 5 years after its release the same way they talk about crysis.

i would give up argonians for spears.........ironic isnt it. :)
