cargohills posted:Todd Howard has been involved in every Elder Scrolls release since Daggerfall. That's incorrect. He's been involved in every Elder Scrolls release, including Arena. He just didn't really have anything to do with developing Arena. The reason every Elder Scrolls game has vampires is because he's taunting people about how obvious it is that he's one of the unaging creatures of the night.

yeah the mountain you go to in newvegas is connected to a bunch of other quests and has an important role in the game. it also has interesting characters and a reason for being there. whereas fallout 3 has like a skeleton dungeon in it lol

I think the fully voiced player character is a great thing and the times of silent protagonists are kind of outdated and boring.

You know, I think if Obsidian would announce that they would make a game with a voiced protagonist people would applaud them how it would enhance the story and make the main character more attached to the world.Boogaleeboo posted:You read the gamergate thread?

Alpha protocol is a bad comparison because wasn't open world and you can only ever play it as Mike Thorton, International Spy. Also because any 'choice' was just an illusion leading you down the one true narrative, Best Bros with Heck. EDIT: Actually, railroading you story - wise would make AP pretty comparable to Bethesda games.

Howard wasn't involved with Morrowind then how could Bethesda have found the inspiration to create a false vampire-prophet dwelling deep inside the Hell that is the product of some long-lost greater peoples? How could they have determined the proper proportions of his pale, wiry frame? And how would they have known to make him a silver-tongued ghoul who crawls out of a hole in the ground once every eon so that he might plague the unwary with lies and deceit?
