Asked all the right questions and gained really detailed answers and insight into not only the game but the behind the scenes of the development and future for the new IP. Best 25 mins or so I've spent in a long time.

To think that Todd thought about the idea of this game towards the beginning of his career, it’s just amazing. Especially since now it’s coming to light. He always said that he wouldn’t want to make the game unless he felt the technology was there to back up his ambitions. even now, I’m sure there are things he would love to see in the game that just aren’t possible yet. Todd is the difference between a corporate warrior who lives and breaths to see dollar signs… and a Gamer first who’s mind is always dreaming about what’s possible and what he would want to see in a video game. Who is always thinking about how he can push the boundaries and make the game that he’s always dreamed of since the arcades of the 1970s and 80s. Someone who doesn’t just make games, but plays them. Still enjoys the same things he did as a kid. Some thing that is not only rare in this world, but commendable. As you can see that inner light in him shine when he talks about this game. Can’t wait to play it.

That specific 4chan leak talking about Todd, Spaceships and new animation system (in 2018), seems more true than ever. Todd is gonna support Starfield for a time, maybe upgrade the engine a little bit more and TES VI will be his Magnum Opus before retiring. Which means Todd knowing about CBBE and liking it is also true.
