>still have at least another 30 years of toddkino to look forward to
thank goodness
underrated
Thats like 3 games, counting Starfield
That will actually suck.
It makes sense.
After 20 years he finally made the game that he always wanted to make.
TES and Fallout were never his own creations, but Starfield is.
Was a space game really the game he's always wanted to make? I remember reading that somewhere but I don't know if that's actually true.
I believe it for sure after watching the dev interview things for Oblivion
He always wanted to make starfield, but TES games were his babies as well, his eyes light up when he remembers morrowind and oblivion development in interviews.
The series he clearly never gave a frick about was Fallout, I don't know why bethesda even keeps making them since they clearly don't really like the setting, I think Emil is the only guy that genuinely gives a shit about it and it's just to shove his shitty father son stories in.
Isn’t he like 50?
He’ll have to release some expansions for starfield before working on the next elder scrolls full time. Considering starfield took 8 years of development. He’ll be well into his 60’s when the next elder scrolls comes out
not everyone work till they can't stand anymore
the luxury of retiring in your 50s.
yeah but video games take 10 years to make now
out of 10
Heh
he also made millions of dollars from the sale to Microsoft
I bet $50 he'll retire BEFORE Elder Scrolls 6 comes out
Not true, he still has Fallout 5, and even then that will be in like 10 years.
>might retire after tes 6
>tes6 is a decade away because whales have been keeping tes going since 2014
I don't see him making TES6 anyway. If Starfield is successful, which let's be honest it will be because it's a new platform for mods, he'll make DLC for it and ultimately a sequel then he's done.
Just another of his lies
God I fricking hope
>might
nah he’ll keep going, gotta sell more skyrim copies
so ES6 sometime in 2037 got it
>might
According to experts I'm sure.
he's old and rich
>Todd will be in his 60s
>still making Elder Scrolls
Absolutely ludokino career.
He just an PR guy, you know that, right?
Sure thing, Jason.
>fallout 76
>paid mods
>fallout 4
>fallout 76
Better fallout game than 4
That didn't happen
That's the one Interplay made you moron
>interplay made fallout 4
im crying
>fallout 4
Was a huge success
>fallout 76
>paid mods
Very obvious cashgrab to get microsoft to buy them and paypig for starfield. Wrong on a PR point of view, but achieved their purpose financially.
The bigger problem is F76, that tarnished the reputation of the company beyond belief (deserved, don't get me wrong, it was embarrassing). It's because of that game Starfield lacks some hype.
fallout 4 was a success but it wasn't very good.
I never said it was, but todd made the right calls to make it a best seller, which is his job. It's fricked up, but that is his first priority, not necessarily because he wants it to be (maybe he does, I'm no mind reader), but because it's what he is paid for.
That should only work up until a point. The only reason he gets away with conning people because he's very charismatic.
>He just an PR guy
No he isn't.
He has been leading the team since morrowind and worked on daggerfall too.
Pete Hines is supposed to be the PR guy but not even his mom likes him so Todd has to do his work for him.
I figured as much. I didn't expect him to stick around very much longer after Starfield, that's the game that he has really wanted to make, so it makes sense to end his career afterward. I guess he'll stick around for TESVI to wrap things up.
Do you want him to make games until he drops dead?
yes
Yea. He is not allowed to simply retire.
I think his games are complete dogshit and him retiring will bring much needed change to the company. Maybe they will finally build a new engine with id's help and so on.
He never said he would retire after TES6, just that TES6 might be his last Elder Scrolls game. He's keeping the door open for Fallout 5.
You can cry about skyrim all you want but when Todd retires gaming will unironically officially be dead, and no 20 hours long video will save it.
ok but can he atleast fricking let somebody else make a fallout, i dont wanna have to wait 12+ years.
I hate that disgusting ugly moron like you wouldn't believe. I'd blast his head off with a shotgun. Why is he even posted from time to time?
he's funny.
Why do I think that, despite everything, his departure will make things significantly worse at Beth?
>Todd Howard retires after TES6
>Quentin Tarantino retires after his next film
End of an era coming
>you will miss al the creators you shit on in the past in just a few years
I don't want this to happen bros...
It's on the way and it'll come sooner than you think.
>Todd Howard
>Gabe Newell
>Shigeru Miyamoto
>Eiji Aonuma
>Ed Boon
>Tim Sweeney
>John Carmack (already gone to pursue AI or something)
ALL of them are in the verge of retirement.
>Nobuo Uematsu
Miyamoto and Aonuma are going to going to retire the same way that Miyazaki did
>retire
>go to the ghibli office everyday anyway
>yell at people that they're doing everything wrong
>direct a new completely hand-drawn movie
>refuse to elaborate
Isn't Miyamoto basically doing that anyway? He's not a director on games so much as he's a "Creative Fellow" and gets to throw around big-dick legacy all over the interns at the helm.
yeah, he tells people when their games suck and performs esoteric rituals as an onmyouji to channel Iwata's spirit when things get difficult
;_;
If he leaves, what Western dev icon is left?
I dont want him to retire, bros
>If he leaves, what Western dev icon is left?
Game? Dev?
Just stop playing western slop and worship Miyazaki like the rest of Ganker
think about it for a moment. why on earth would this video game corporate suit be declaring his retirement years in advance (es6 coming in 2026, earliest). He's taking advantage of his "e-celeb" status to advertise the games by giving it a mystical allure, where we're meant to think it's going to be his magnum opus and crowning achievement. Black person, please. I've got a bridge to sell you on procedurally generated planet 746
Actually he said it'd likely be his last Elder Scrolls game. Given it's already been TWELVE FRICKING YEARS since Skyrim released, and ES6 is at least 2 years away and likely more, it's not surprising to think Todd might have retired in another 20 years when they get around to ES7.
>todd retires
>Pete Hines or Emil Pagliarulo takes over
Its actually fricking over, its so fricking over
That's fine, it will be a decade before TES6 comes out.
Fear not anon. By the time ES6 comes out, many of you will have either died from health problems or an hero'd.
buy starfield
Maybe after the 12 month live beta
Predicted this but then again it wasn't that hard to see coming. I'd imagine he'd still remain someone that can come around randomly and see how things are coming along and offer help, but seeing the Starfield promotion stuff and the interviews he's done it's becoming more obvious that his age is catching up. Realistically by the time ES6 comes out, what more would he want to do? Between Starfield and ES6 he'll have the perfect final chapter to leave with.
>todd will die in your lifetime
Damm. Starfield is his magnum opus. He’s getting out
We're never getting Elder Scrolls 7 anyway.
Todd Coward
His games suck anyway, not a big loss
Directors/producers definitely stay in the industry past 60 so I doubt he'd quit.
Knowing this, Todd will probably take the Stan Lee approach & make a WHOLE lot of sacrifices to sustain his life
Good, he was always full of shit and released trash after trash.
Mods always were their main focus, it is like he releases dev kits for people to modify and frick around with.
>Todd spirit finally leaves his body
>Every copy of Skyrim receives a shard of his soul
>Todd Howard, the fracture god
>We must find all copies of Skyrim to make him whole again and resurrect him into the physical realm
>every copy of skyrim is personalized
>the first thing he does when he resurrects is release Skyrim again
>implying they aren't already imbued with shards of his soul
You didn't think he produced so many just for money did you?
That's too many fricking copies
But consider this: skyrim copies are his philacteries, he will stay alive as a lich indefinetly until every single one is destroyed.
at least its confirmed ES6 isnt cancelled.
Makes sense. He's almost 60.
Does this mean that the next fallout is being done by oblivion? They wont let the IP not have a game for 2 decades and todd wont work on fallout 5 after ES6 so why not? Microsoft owns Oblivion and bethesda anyways
Fallout 5 is only after TES6. Their next game will be elder scrolls.
>inb4 they announce F5, Starfield 2 and a new IP and only then show another teaser for TES6
TES6 is literally gonna be 2 decades after Fallout 4. TES6 MINIMUM will release in 2028 but mostly 2029 and beyond. That means Fallout 5 will be 2034 or later
At that point just have oblivion do it or hell any company. Especially since todd is retiring after ES6
>pete hines succeeds him
>Todd had Ferret Baldoin to take care of Fallout since he was Van Buren's Writer
>Feret dies of VAXXfizer
>Todd had Tuttle to take the reins of TES after He retires since he is the Loregay
>Tuttle leaves Zenimax Online Studios
Todd has no heirs to take care of TES and Fallout after he retires.
