I feel for Todd. I have no notion of his politics, but it doesn't really matter. This was supposed to be his magnum opus, but you can't build a game like Starfield alone. Imagine trying to pull a project like this together, and you can only get this current gen of writers without the brass firing you if you object. I wonder if he's come to assume modders will fix shit.
I don't feel for Todd and I know I'm being that guy, but if what the anon is describing about the game's easter eggs and other bullshit is true then they spent the past 25 years preparing a game and creating content specifically to pander to each 'current thing' that came along after the next. I'm more surprised there wasn't a covid reference in there somewhere declaring anybody who didn't get the jab is evil.

Emil Pagliarulo is credited as the Lead Designer and Writer. It was Bethesda's choice to put such mediocrity in charge years ago, and at this point it's all on Todd for keeping him around.

You're probably right. Hate to see it; back to OpenMW and all the mods.
