This interview has 16x the detail of a regular Wired interview E: I typically don't edit my comments, but I want to spread some positivity. Todd, for all his faults, can be at least proud to be head of a team that is at least attempting (with varying levels of success) to do some grander things in gaming, even if they at times don't execute their vision acceptably. Starfield, despite its many bugs, is a game I've found to be quite fun. I've put in a little over 500 hours into the game, despite the story lacking in a some key areas. Ignore the people online paid in ad revenue and Dollar Shave Club sponsorships to rag on video games and instead try it for yourself with an open mind.

I hope The Elder Scrolls 6 sees a return to a smaller detailed worlds that feel visually connected. That was the strongest parts of TES and Fallout for me, you constantly stumbled upon unique handcrafted location, each with their own stories to discover (many left unfinished for the player to interpret). While Starfield was a huge leap in many regards I feel like the core feel of a Bethesda game was somewhat lost within the scale of it for many of us. Todds son was saying 'Dadda' in Fallout 3 while Emil's son was performing the black sacrament in Skyrim!

You can't really blame them at the end of the day, this is what the financial systems we live in incentivises them to do and as long as consumers continue to support these companies they will continue to exist.

I loved Starfield, but regardless, I don't think we should be worried about elder scrolls VI. The game franchise is Todd and the teams bread and butter. Very rarely do they gamble with that series and I have a feeling they'll be firing on all cylinders with that game. There's also a lot starfield does very well that I'm hoping is in TES VI too. The procedurally generated planets is because of starfields setting too and the amount of planets, so I don't think elder scrolls VI will have that obstacle. I'm expecting 2 decently sized provinces, which will most likely be high rock and hammerfell.

Now that you have Gen Zs flooding the gaming industry, you're starting to see poorer output since us young people prioritize our mental well-beings. You can also see this in the movie industry too.

Morrowind remains unmatched to this day in depth, lore, atmosphere, and freedom. Not even Divinity 2 or BG3 can recapture that feeling of playing morrowind for the first time. Walking out into Sedya Neen and just being dumbfounded. And Fallout 3. I agree with Todd, the best intro to a game ever. Loved all the side quests. Loved the vibe. Remains one of my top games ever. And Skyrim is obviously a classic that I have come to appreciate more and more through the years. Outside of Nintendo, there's not many game developers with a resume like that. I will admit the last 3 games haven't lived up to my expectations, even though there was something to enjoy about all of them. But that in no way tarnishes the amazing memories I have of the earlier games in the series. Thanks for all the great years, Todd and Bethesda.

Todd Howard, Chris Metzen, and the other folks who bet their career on what back then was anything but a 'safe' industry really paved the way for today's game developers.
