Now Todd Howard himself - I hear people whinge and whine about Todd all day, people [censored]ing about the effort he has put in to Oblivion, how he sucks, how he "Doesn't read books" well, the truth is;
Todd Howard earns more money than you.
He probably drives a Jag or some other car you will only see in the motoring magazine
He probably owns a massive house
He is well respected
He has admiration from MILLIONS
He is probably better looking than you
He probably has more friends than you
Well, that's what they told me. Any mention of the Codex will be deleted. Have a nice day.stargelman said:Wow, that's just... pathetic!whitemithrandir said:http://www.elderscrolls.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=556309
RETARD ALERT!
BTW, yesterday, for the first time, former fanboy stargelman had one of his posts ... deleted! I mentioned the Codex. I wonder if that is why?
Really? I thought it was because Pete was afraid that if the devs graced any form of critizism with a reply, they'd somehow magically validate it. Isn't that why they're not posting on the Codex anymore?
The infamous illiterate new generation.Morrowind
I'm not going over the details of what made Morrowind so good, you all know them by heart however i did have a few complains about it and those are worth to mention beacuse there were corrected in Oblivion.
1- I was getting sick of text dialogue so i hated that part of the game.
2- I hated the fact that all the cool looking gear have to be covered by clothes for your char to be a top efficiency, like putting any of the horrible looking robes completely covering your armor. see i think combat in the middle ages was so cool looking not because of clothes but because of the beautifully crafted armors they made, covering them would be a shame.
3- Weather was a real pain in the [censored], especially in the Dagoth Ur region
4- The transportation system wasn't that great. That i beleaved because levitation combined with the Boots of Blinding Speed rendered fast travel crappy except when you were right there next to one.
5-Lack of level scaling. I didn't like the fact that after i finished building my char everyone will die in one hit since they were all 30 levels or so below me.
6- Magic being nothing but a backup of melee. The lack of magic regeneration turned it into a joke compared to the melee with enchant combo.
Reading is teh isolation device.Oblivion
After a huge portion of my life spent playing video games, i began to wonder how will the games of the future will look like, in the late 90's i thought that virtual reality was the next big thing and that by now no games like the ones we have will exist, but i was again wrong.
We were meant to be inside our games through immersion not isolation devices, so after realizing that the idea of Oblivion became the clear future inside my mind, even before Beth announced Oblivion. I imagined a game with graphics this good, the ability to be mod, and all the problems i have dealt with in other titles (like Morrowind) corrected.
And that game is Oblivion, made a reality now. Some of you will remember me for arguing in these forums against the many complains that people have with the game such as "Fast travel ruined Oblivion" "Level scaling sucks" "Oblivion s-u-c-k-s" and that sort of things. some of you will tell me they have a right to say so and i will tell you and i have a right to say they are wrong.
The true is i love Oblivion, The game is my only reason to still view my computer as an entertaining device and not a working one, and it hurts watching people trying to destroy the game in such vile way.

Now that sums up Todd Howard, but back to Fallout;
= Todd has a job (and / or is in debt up to his eyeballs paying off a car and a house he can't afford).Todd Howard earns more money than you.
He probably drives a Jag or some other car you will only see in the motoring magazine.
He probably owns a massive house
= Todd has friends.He is well respected
He has admiration from MILLIONS
He probably has more friends than you
= Todd is a pornstar... Wait, I think I'm on to something!He is probably better looking than you

I think that's a facile justification for the numbers.Lumpy said:Everyone who likes the game in playing it, so only the whiners visit the forums.

JoelBurgess (a Bethesda developer) said:I did make a little progress with the silent speech problem - hopefully. If anybody wants to try it with the public version of the CS, please let me know if it works. From the CS:
gameplay>settings
find "fDialogSpeachDelay" (yes, it's a typo)
increase the value to something more agreeable. Mine is set to four.
IsItThough said:I've just realised something - Joel has just inadvertantly proved that we do not have the same CS that was used to make the game. So all the devs who told us we did, were misleading us. Care to explain that one Mr Burgess?
That's sarcasm, right?Lumpy said:Oblivion is so good that the flaws are much more obvious.
Everyone who likes the game in playing it, so only the whiners visit the forums.
People don't like change.
People just like to complain.
See you on the forums!
