Is this a subtle hint that either series won't become very different in the future? :)

No, that's the official name for Fallout 3 - Project: The Elder Scrolls or Fallout - RPG: A Post-Nuclear/Fantasy Role Playing Game.

Don't you guys get bored of all the cheap and very predictable little stabs in every Bethesda thread? They make games you don't like and that are successful. Get over it already.

And what would you suggest we do instead? Go out and become well adjusted productive members of society! Absurd!

I am always happy to join the bitching about content, PR, or strategies. But job ads? That IS absurd...

Several programmers for a project that is supposedly full in development?
Bethesda sure needs a lot of new "talent" recently.
Their senior developers dropped like flies so bring on more industry newbs, please.
