Does anyone know what Todd even does and what his influence means for Bethesda's newest games

I thought he got the coffee for everyone in the office...

Ah, yes... Carmack programs some of the industry's most amazing game engines and Todd fetches coffee in record speed... right?

I honestly don't see why he is such a figure head, other than the fact that Bethesda needs a fall guy. So if they make a really crappy game they can relegate Todd to something else and restore faith.
I mean, the only other game designers as well known as a studio are Pete Molyneux and that guy who wanted to make us his [censored] with that katana game.

I'm sure he is a talented game designer (there is plenty of proof) I just don't see why he has so muich exposure.

I think Todd is very good at what he does.

Pretty average. Not really talented, good at mimicking and corporate maneuvering.

On the outside, he's a normal average dude who creates very good games but deep down, he's a god with an intention to destroy all other games with the mighty onslaught of TES :flamethrower:

I knew of Todd's existence just a few months ago.

» Tue Sep 06, 2011 3:10 am

I don't know.

I don't get they hype behind the guy, he just seems normal. Is it all just humor or what? :shrug:

I would say he is closer to the Greek god. He is like Hercules, not quite a god but he has to be some how related. Maybe he is a Buddha?

Yes

Honestly, without even considering the quality of different Bethesda games, it's not like Todd Howard is the only person making the games.

With Skyrim coming out, couldn't your poll option have been "Norse God of Gaming"? Where is your sense of marketing, man?

Because Skyrim is not 10th century Scandinavia, no matter how much the metal fans want it too be.
