*"16 times the details. 16 times the fun. 16 times the lies."* - Brod Throward.
256 times the lies, you have to square them
Todd's Toddin'!
That sounds like a Skyrim character. Lol
Gotta know the context in which 16 times was said tho
@@Left4Candyit was on fallout 76 demo or something, but the 16x the details are emphasized greatly on internet historian video about the fall of 76
Todd sounds like that friend that really wants you to play his favorite game, and he tells alot of exagerated things about the game to get you to play it
And that friend makes millions doing it
Hey thats me 🤣
Used to tell my friends that you could do anything in runescape. “Bro you can do like anything you can do in real life”
Only in this case does he sell the game to you. And then again. And further. And further. Buy Skyrim. Buy again.
I love their games and I know how they work and I am not foolish enough to expect it to be perfect on release. I know the formula. I know how to play these games. How to find and do quests. How to navigate them. How to progress. You have to have a certain competence level at a game to be able to fully enjoy it. Its about everything. If you don't invest in a thing don't expect it to give you what you want. That's life.
"200 dungeons, all handcrafted"
FEEL THE TODD!
Technically true, the dev's paced each lego piece down with absolute precision. =D
@@CoalCoalJames yes, and somehow I still get lost... Maybe because everything is so similar... so when you don't want to exit the dungeon you find that circular stair to get out, and when you are trying to exit to store the loot and go back to loot more you end up in the boss room...
Todd is the master of being factual but not truthful
*fear the Todd
Oh god yes, I can feel him in me.
Honestly, hearing him saying "random spawn" gave me a warm feeling. Cant say if he is still one of us, but he sure as hell used to be one of us. Exactly the type of jokes that made me unpopular in school LOL
Yup, that was a certified nerd moment and i loved it. It's why i think most people just can't hate Todd like they hate Peter Molyneux. He may make ridiculous claims about his games but he seems like a real nerd and a likable guy. I don't think he's even trying to intentionally con us, just that there's a massive gap between his vision for his games and the actual game development skill and all around dedication at Bethesda. It seems like the general trend in the AAA industry for the last 15 years or so has been to just deliver passable products. It's why so many devs attacked Larian over BG 3. For Bethesda this feels like it's only made worse by the fact that they know their massive modding community will fix the product's issues post release so why bother.
@@xKinjaxAnd to be honest.... I have absolutely described some of my favorite video games to my friends like this. Either in an attempt to get them to play, or to justify why I'm playing some other game instead of playing CoD with them.
Spotted the target audience.
@@xKinjax Honestly it seems to me like his vision for games are just so far outside of what is possible by today's technology that they can never live up to expectations - not even his.
@@xKinjax I mean cant blame Todd i am working at a studio as well and i kind of am excited for our own game as well but know deep down its mid at best. The dude is just overly excited for people to explore and play his game. As a Level designer i love people reacting to the detailing i put in my worlds as well its just what drives you as a dev when people point out the easter eggs and stuff like that. Gives me more motivation as well to push harder. And i think Todd is in the same ship tbh. And i think we can be lucky todd is still around i cant imagine how bethesda would have been if someone else whas at that helm i think we are in the universe with the best version of Todd tbh
It's not lies guys - Todd just wants to believe and wants everyone to believe TOO!
Those who believe their own scams are called idiots.

Really? Kinda like modern games better
Now we're back to the dark ages of videogames industry
@@Czermet666Games continue to be awesome, just a lot more people complaining nowadays
Todd Howard is such a charismatic guy, hes really hard to hate.
So true! 😂
Dude probably got shoved into lockers when he was a kid. This is his payback.
@@NotCharAznable Now we are all shoved into Todd's game engine locker as payback...
Honestly true, the time of guy people forgive everytime he makes a mistake
@@NotCharAznable the jocks that use to give him swirlies now get hounded by their kids until they are forced to buy Todd's games for them lol
That’s the magic thing about him,
he’s aggravatingly charming, no matter what he says, or what he does, nobody can stay mad at him, no matter what’s happening he’s always having so much fun in the moment that it’s infectious
I think he's Buddhist
I think you're just gullible.
he's the perfect guy for selling your software ngl
@@ripplecutter233 He just works.
@@Vulgarth1 I played one of he’s games and immediately stopped when i encountered game breaking bugs.
Most people keep playing, most people keep buying, how many of you played? How long have you played?
In one way or another, we fall for it, it doesn’t work every time, but most people are lured him by his smiles and charms.
The man is a legendary salesman that goes without saying, he’s been able to scam thousands of people for years now and continues to to this day, it’s stopped becoming a bug and has become a feature, sure people complain,
but i guarantee you some are secretly hoping for those bugs, it’s a part of the brand now
I'm gonna be real with ya'll, my life is at least 1% better because of Todd and his memes.
Saaaame! ❤
But at what cost!?
Yeah i don't blame him i blame shit eaters nobody gonna feed a cow five star stake
@@Nix-Man40$ skyrim SE steam sale and infinite fun modding it as a programmer ❤
Depends on how many editions of Skyrim he bought 😅@@Nix-Man
Todd gives off this energy that makes me think he is from The Office. It just makes me unable to be mad at him.
He's the real life Michael Scott
That's where you and I are different. I hate his guts
Todd - the meme that just keeps on giving.
I remember rewatching that video just after early access launched for Starfield. It's a timeless classic.
@@Generic_CZcams_Username_ we didnt learn they told us

@@bluemamba5317 it wasnt even something we learned people already figured it out before they told us
@@laserpoint3741 cool story
@@bluemamba5317 what’s your point
Somethings never change, Todd has been saying the same lies for 10+ years and you can probably find the same bugs in old bethesda games and starfield because they using the same engine
That is why I didn't preorder Starfield.
I knew Todd would come with his typical lies and BS and that the game would be far from he promised.
And most gamers that bought Starfield are just coping because they knew they were idiots believing in his lies.
@@The_Judge300I just waited and got it on game pass and it's actually enjoyable. Idk why people don't just get it on game pass. It makes me cringe so hard when they buy it for full price or get premium.
@@The_Judge300 well.. a lot of Bethesda fans got exactly what they expected
some people will see worlds devoid of anything worth exploring, others will see the potential of adding location mods on top of each other without worrying about compatibility issues
for me personally, there's a good chance I'll play Fallout 4 New Vegas before buying Starfield
One more thing never changes, most of stupid gamers still believe, preorder / buy on prime price, defends his game
@@The_Judge300I'm having a blast. 🤷♂️
Lying Todd is my favorite marvel villain
Misunderstood villain
Todd Lie but everyone Love Todd, this guy put everything in charisma, all the 70 point in charisma
And he always roll 20 on a speech check.
>making excuses for your worship of marketing scams
I love the guy even when I know he's looking me in the eyes and lying to me....
it's TODDIN' TIMEEEE!
TODDS...ASSEMBLE!
silent peasant@@OilFreeFeathers
I just can’t help but like Todd. I meme on him for sure, but Skyrim, even unmodded, is one of my favorite games.
It came out 12 years ago. You know, Ubisoft and EA used to make good games too.
Bethesda isn't any better than them or Activison.
@@woefulfisherbethesda make bad games, EA and Blizzard makes cash grab machines, that happens to also be a game. Dont aply malice when its only incompetence.
@@silvioantonio6952I mostly agree but fuck them. They started this shit when they sold horse armor for oblivion as a dlc and everyone realized gamers will eat up whatever you shit down their throats as long as they're already mildly invested into a game.
That is a long time ago, between that there were F4 and 76 then this....thing.
Nobody could claim those are superior to Skyrim.
F4 is way worse than F3 even. Honestly, I prefer the linear story of F3 than the attempt to emulate New Vegas and older Fallout... mostly because i wanted to see Lyon'2 Knights in shining armor not another bunch of techno dickheads...
@@silvioantonio6952Idk about bad games, I have more hours in BGS games than any other studio’s games
they have their problems but there’s no other gaming experiences like what they put out
the soul reason i can forgive this man for al the fuck ups is the fact he seems genuinely nice and he loves the games he creates atleast that is the vibe ive always had of him
Say what you will, the man is a legend when it comes to salesmanship. It just works.
Exactly. Also games they make are actually good. Way better than most. I'd still rather play skyrim or fallout than most new games coming out. Tells you a lot about quality.
@@JustChill-zd4ib Rather, tells you lot about the average game's quality. Like sure, Starfield is meh asf but aside from maybe Armored Core 6 and Baldur's Gate 3. There's not that much games that are beyond it. Starfield is at least meh.
"It's not lies.... ITS A BETHEDA GAME ITS SUPPOSED TO-"
I swear, every time I hear ''Little Lies'' the first thing that comes to mind is Todd
Todd is what happens when you cross Only Fools and Horses with The Big Bang Theory.
"It has 16x the detail" that quote will live forever!
The part at the end choked me up. The man just wants to make good games.
I believe he does deep down, but as of the recent decade or two he's seemed to lose that passion he once had.
I believe the Todd of today cares too much about the financial success of the company, whilst paying little but lip service to his once-loyal fans.
That's why the games keep getting more & more streamlined into the more action-adventure theme, whilst forsaking the genuine RPG elements at the roots of Bethesda.
He is after all, the man who started as a secretary for an Indie company (Bethesda) that eventually became a multi-billion dollar franchise which he became the CEO of... and he's been there the whole time.
He's seen Bethesda nearly go broke and shut down, before hitting jackpot. Today Bethesda is worth $3BILLION
I'm glad Todd is a game director and not a politician.
Lol yeah, we'd be fucked if he would.
That's the thing about Todd, he's so charismatic yet unassuming that people can't help but like and trust him even when bullshits lie after lie to his customers.
the confidence of this man makes what he is today ..
also didnt knew where that "IT JUST WORKS!" came from, OFC it was todd
"There was a dream that was Bethesda. You could only whisper it. Anymore than a whisper and Todd Howard would hear it."
We can thank the previous Fallout for waking up Crowbcat.
Classic Godd Howard, gotta love the guy.
Tell me why I hate him then
@@NovaProspekt19you must see a therapist you need help 😔
@MysteriouslyMystifying I am right in the head unlike the fallout ruiner
Todd is basically real life Michael Scott
"If it's working, modders can't fix it" - Todd Chadword
You gotta give it to the man, he sure doesn't seem to fail his dialogue checks with all the money he made
To be fair on the 'infinite quests' that's accurate. Doesn't mean they are new or fun, but for example if you keep going to the Thieves Guild you'll always have another quest of items to snag.
Shoutout to that one guy in Chat that said "its over 9000". RIP Akira Toriyama
0:51 "These NPCs are *not* scripted" - Todd, as a modder, I tell you - they are *LITERALLY* SCRIPTED, in every sense of this word.
But yes, Skyrim quests are actually infinite - radiant quests are generated infinitely.
Too bad they get boring the umpteenth time you get a courier
@@vrygon8893 there's literally nothing that does not become boring if done infinitely
very good point @@dpolanski4143
That comment is obviously wrong but it refers to the oblivion AI. While they were scripted a lot of the interactions were not. There were a lot of random interactions occurring which allowed towns to wipe themselves out. Obviously not a scripted interaction. It's really just about the unintentional nature of some interactions. Btw the more you play one world the more likely that was to happen.
it refers to oblivion where the radiant AI were really given free reign. They decreased the npc scope in skyrim and made them more scripted
He just do what he always wanted to do, games, with passion, with different outcomes ofc. No matter what he gonna leave a huge mark on whole gaming industry. It just works.
He’s the most extroverted introverted person I’ve ever seen, it’s so adorable
I think Todd has a lot of ambition and a lot of dreams and sometimes it just doesn't work and sometimes it does.
Todd is Adam Sandler of gaming industry
Hey, love him or hate him at least he is consistent.
And no matter how many lies he makes, promises he fails to deliver, or corners he cuts... gamer's will eat that sh*t up time and time again. It just works.
No.
I returned 76 aftee 2 days.
Not getting any bethesda anymore until Elder Scrolls 6 Game of the year edition.
Let's see how he lies when he's hungry.
Now someone's gotta send him the It Just Works Musical.
Todd put his points into charisma
This is the closest experience we'll have to the unearthing of a time capsule.
I'd hire him in a heartbeat
This is a great resume. The man's charismatic, and driven. Better than most my co-workers. And honestly, he'd probably even make a decent boss.
Ever heard the story behind how Todd got hired at Bethesda when they were like a 10-man team inventing TheElderScrolls?
Ted Peterson was the guy, awesome dude. Still trying to get a brand new studio off the ground to produce another game, the spiritual successor to Daggerfall, the OG ElderScrolls RPG.
He hired Todd as the tea boy. (true story)
You have Stockholm bro. Not joking
@@Leo347I think they're an American based company actually
Todd will always be a legend in the gaming community now and 50 years from now. Say whatever you want about him, but he brought great games to a lot of gamers, including the game of modding his games 🤣

Not sure, we have to consider he might be the archmage of alteration
he's literally an apprentice of peter molyneux
my favorite part is asmon pretending to be bewildered by the intro b-roll of todd walking around and shit. top tier react streamer
Man, he is a salesman, all other things about the game aside. To be fair, he probably has big visions for these games and not everything makes it into the final version.
We must reawaken crowbcat
This is just such a classic
I just love that someone was so fed up with Bethesda and Todd that made this gem
To be fair the Oblivion NPCs originally were NOT scripted but the devs found that people were killing each other for Skooma and just randomly leaving the cities they were in making the game unplayable.
Hahaha should of made a mod where this was playable
There is still an unfinished quest in the games code where a guy is supposed to deliver bread to Selmo's bakery but if he does so it will kill everyone and crash the game so they "fixed" it by making him never do the delivery.
Crowbcat is like a solar eclipse, we rarely see him. But when we do, it’s special
Todd is definitely a beautiful bastard. One for the ages.
he is the new peter molineux for sure.
Crowb is a legend.

Todd Howard [ Pathological liar ]
Todd's the reason the word "gaslight" exists
Ah yes... Shang Tsung in human form if his magic is stripped away.
Todd’s my favorite snake oil salesman.
The man is one part high level executive game selling guru, and then the kid who is still trying to create the games he always wanted to play as a kid.
Whatever happens, we will be looking back at this man as a legend for everything he's done, good and bad. mainly the bad but still 😂
Can't wait for the new Starfield edition of this masterpiece
Todd is a gigachad and no buggy release will ever change my mind
God I love Todd Howard.
In Todd we trust
Ew
I like when Todd said "It's Toddin' time" and Todded all over Bethesda games
Man Why does this feel like "In Loving Memory" 😭
Todd Howard is the sequel to Peter Moulineux.
Todd was the last remnant of the old guard that had made our old games so nostalgic and fun to play through. Sad to have seen him go.
he was unimaginative back in morrowind.
he was around for the old guard, but in terms of being a developer he wasnt one of them.
Not quite.
@@scout360pyroz Morrowind was a breathe of fresh air during it's era and won countless awards. You may not have enjoyed it yourself but that doesn't mean it wasn't wildly immersive/imaginative like you said.
@@KRIAJK I did enjoy it. A LOT.
You clearly have no clue what you are talking about, nor do you know what parts of it Todd personally touched.
I pity your poor english. I said Todd wasn't one of the old guard, and that should have implied that the OTHER developers around him were.
Sadly the many of them left after the stress of Morrowind.
Todd is MANAGER by trade, and always was.
Not a developer.
@@scout360pyroz Ahh yes. How to win an argument on the internet 101; Poorly type your argument, when someone disagrees attack them, never elaborate on what you previously said so they hopefully don't look back at it.
Like I said before, you may or may not have enjoyed the game but Todd Howard was the Lead Developer. You can't bring your own opinion into a fact argument. Simply because you believe him not to function as a proper Lead Developer does not mean he is not the Lead Developer.
@@KRIAJK
Projection is an ugly thing. You dont know what a LEAD does, do you?
The only part he personally touched was the imperial guard questline where, among other things, he made his attempt at a murder mystery where the body was left out in the open with the killers axe still in him with the killers name ON the axe.
It was the equivalent of a 1st level WoW quest.
Todd's main job was to keep everyone else going and steer things in the right direction. And Morrowind traumatized him with how overworked everyone was.
He would have been the ultimate go-between for the actual devs vs the management.
The one bearing the worst of the stress and being forced to balance expectations with what was possible.
That is where the old guard of Morrowind went.
It burned them out.
"It mostly works."
"Skyrim has very many quests."
"You can play it for a long time."

Still waiting on the "Asmongold FINALLY plays BG3" video.
Man, I love Starfield to death but it's clearly not the type of game Asmon wanna enjoy. I still hope he can play BG3 with Mcconnell soon.
Just right behind him going back to FFXIV and finally playing Genshin, bro.
Can't wait for the new elder scrolls memes. 32 times the details 64 times the amount of lies.
He's quite charismatic and relax individual I don't know anything about that person but I'm aware about his games
Todd Howard is the real life Michael Scott.
I think Todd has good intentions. I remember when FO4 was released he was at the PR launch party surrounded by people. None of them knew who he was, it was a Hollywood shindig. The tall actresses that walked around just saw him as a short nobody. It was really sad, i was kind of hoping he would learn a lesson from that and go back to his roots. Hollywood types aren't your friend.
Todd is actually a genius. He figured out the 'magic formula' of corporate video gaming, that is to create a barely playable, highly moddable 'game' that is almost more of a dev sandbox than a game, but yet still make it just playable and interesting enough to entice the community into actually putting the effort into creating mods and fixing it for him free of charge. Add in that weird charisma he has and this dude is just unstoppable, love him or hate him.
Todd radiates a wholesome vibe even with all the lies.
The random spawn was hilarious
There was a time when I liked Todd Howard, those days are long gone.
Todd is one of the biggest lieing Andys in the whole fuckin industry. 16 TIMES THE DETAIL!

There are differences and worse aspects of Re4 remake compared to the original but it's not this soulless game that Crowbcat tried to make it out to be.
Dear Todd Howard,
Your games are bad and you should feel bad.
Thank god he started at Bethesda after Morrowind was mostly done or he'd have watered down that game too.
