How can this manlet just lie to players' faces so openly?
And I'm not talking about overall questionable qualities of Fallout 4, but more about the singular hugely obvious lies.
For example when he talked about the base building in Fallout 4 and said "it just works". It clearly doesn't just work, it's buggy as shit. If he just said they have it there and it was buggy, everything would be as expected, but Todd feels confident to say "it just works". And it doesn't.
Or for example the Pip Boy shit from the Fallout 4 limited edition. Todd says it's not gonna just plastic shit... but then it's plastic shit.
These blatant lies aren't debatable, are easily recognizable, yet noone cares.
Because video game players are ballsack-less dweebs who live in their mothers basement. What are they going to do? Stop buying the games? pls
>>339245090
There's always piracy.
Not enough people care, the people who buy these kinds of games based on hype alone will do it again the next year no matter what.
>>339244954
because today's gamers settle for less and are actually thankful for a mediocre product (see also: remasters) and will run to any outlet to defend paying for shit products.
>>339245156
yet sales still go through the roof...
>>339245214
>gamers settle for less
>are actually thankful for a mediocre product
>remasters
>will run to any outlet to defend paying for shit products
But not every gamer is a Sony fan.
Because retards took over the player-base of their games. All you have to do is look at the forums where the casuals congregate to find shit like this (This one's regarding mods):
>Bethesda, As a super fan of all your work I would like to say it has been an absolute privilege playing your games, Almost all of them has been... Well an escape for me. You captivate us with entire words that are filled with their very own history and lore, Each game you come out with has been some of the greatest gaming experiences of all of our lives. From the little Easter eggs like teddy bears fucking on Fallout 4, to the heart wrenching stories of characters and animals like Meeko from Skyrim, It has been great, it really has. But now, now you have given us console players something we have never really even though to EVER had, and that is modding. It took a lot of work and effort and the lot of us just shat in your face. The impatience, the pestering, the threatening and the absolute blasphemous shit my fellow console players have been giving you is not right in anyway. Your games have been amazing without, yes they may have had their flaws, but for the most part great, with or without mods. The majority of us console players are so fucking happy and grateful for this privilege and I do not want you to take the bad apples and judge the batch. I do not know if anyone from Bethesda will see this or know how much their games has meant to me and my kids but thank you.
>TL:DR Quit yo bitch'n about Mods, the time mods are being released and quit demanding shit from the modding community like some uppity lil bitch, Be grateful you have what you have.
Do you think these people actually care that Todd's bullshitting them on every turn?
>>339245316
I hate Sonyggers more than anyone else on this board, but every system has huge amounts of retards that swallow every shit
So, Randy Pitchford, Peter Molyneux or Todd Howard - who is the biggest liar in the industry?
>>339244954
You don't get it, he said "It just works", meaning, "It works, but just barely"
>>339245448
Yeah, I know. My post was mainly a joke about Sonyggers doing all that more than others. But yeah, every system has games with such fans.
>>339244954
>>339245214
>>339245419
Just think about all the utterly retarded youtube comments there are on every video related to something popular
Think of how many of them there are, and then think of how many of you there are
People who aren't fucking retarded are severely outnumbered and it keeps growing as time goes on, soon there will only be a couple dozen people who still play video games and aren't retarded
>>339245526
Molyneux is irrelevant, Pitchford is on suicide watch, Todd is the only choice.
New Vegas was the best game in the series anyways. I got bored of FO4 after about a dozen hours because everything felt like a bullet sponge and the quests were boring as shit.
>>339245526
Randy is kinda lowkey nowadays.
Peter was mostly a joke before, you'd smile at his promises, but Godus and the Curiosity fiasco made people dislike him.
It's called marketing and publicity. You don't say "well this feature is kind of buggy and shit and we're rushing it out for the holidays"
The "it just works" is pretty ambiguous term to sell to people. I mean if it works at all technically he's right. No one is up and arms ever if some details is slightly overhyped than what it is. It's your fault for falling for it every time since Oblivion.
The Todd works in mysterious ways
how tall is he?
>>339245884
not much
>>339245884
5'3"
>>339245748
that cat is too fat. i hope it's ok
>>339245748
This
Vague advertising is not a new thing for shitty vidya, it's been around since the first humans started trading items.
>>339245884
5'11
>>339245972
The cat was picked up and thrown like a water balloon for defending Fallout 4.
It smashed against the wall and exploded.
>>339244954
>For example when he talked about the base building in Fallout 4 and said "it just works". It clearly doesn't just work, it's buggy as shit. If he just said they have it there and it was buggy, everything would be as expected, but Todd feels confident to say "it just works". And it doesn't.
this made me laugh so hard fucking hell
>>339246002
no way
>>339246158
He meant 5'1"
Todd getting rejected repeatedly by Bethesda wasn't because he hadn't finished school yet, if you see what I mean.
>>339244954
Don't you remember, OP.
>>339244954
>How can this manlet just lie to players' faces so openly?
Because you'll buy the game anyway.
>>339244954
The real question is why people keep believing him.
>>339244954
It just werk, OP
>>339244954
>How can this manlet just lie to players' faces so openly?
Not even kidding, because of his cute face with puppy-dog eyes and the image he created of himself being the dorky chess club/computer nerd that stuck to his guns despite being ridiculed by the jocks and finally made it big.
On this basis he can easily pull off the same kind of bullshit hype that Molyneux rode on for so long (yeah he's totally discredited now but consider how long he was seen as an industry god despite hardly ever delivering):
the whole spiel of "Oh I'm so excited about what we've got planned, because I'm such a blue-eyed little programmer who just wants to see his vision become reality, so oopsie-daisy, I might've promised unfeasible things from the concept stage that were obviously never going to make it into the game, but see, I totally wasn't lying because I wanted it to be real so bad, because just like you gamers I'm super-excited for good games, honest! See, so my only mistake was I'm too much like you excitable plebs, teehee, and totally not a conniving piece-of-shit businessman!"
And you believe him because you want it to be true.
>>339245526
Randy just lied about Colonial Marines, Borderlands 2 was MOSTLY about what he said it would be.
Molyneux and Howard lie through their teeth for months before every one of their games is released.
What's especially annoying about Molyneux though, is actually his faggot enabler fans who make up endless excuses for him.
>>339244954
Just a reminder he got a lifetime achievement award after Fallout 4.
Because he's so handsome and charismatic unlike you faggotrons
>>339245526
>>339246510
Don't forget about Ken Levine. He isn't known for lies, but Bioshock Infinite was still crap and obviously different from what he promised. And his previous reputation was hardly deserved.
>>339246354
Stay on the lookout for the next Fallout 4 DLC and TES 6 you fucking faggots. You'll play it whether or not you buy it and I'll get rich just like last time.
You're all fucking pathetic and I've got the mainstream tonguing my ass.
>>339245684
>Think of how many of them there are, and then think of how many of you there are
That's really the case with any massively popular games, though. Only difference is that with TES and Fallout originals got lobotomized in the process. I don't really care for TES because in the end it is Bethesda own franchise and they can do whatever they want with it, but Bethesda was a HORRIBLE fit for Fallout and it showed instantly - they didn't really want to make a proper Fallout game, just a game that would get their modern TES audience's attention. It's the kind of audience that can't really tell the difference between F3 and NV on a level that matters.
I want to suck Todd Howards dick as he lies to me about how big it is
I think this is fitting

I've been marathoning 4 a 2nd time. It's a fuckin skinner box I just want to get better gear and increase my stats. Black guy keeps giving me settlement quests and I can't escape. pls help
if they used a better engine and didn't dumb it down RPG wise the game would be great.
>>339246510
>Randy just lied about Colonial Marines
He also lied about the quality of DNF:
http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2012-07-13-duke-nukem-forever-a-discussion-with-randy-pitchford
>I don't know if you've played Duke Nukem Forever. It's awesome.
http://morrisonlee.com/2013/06/14/3d-realms-files-lawsuit-against-gearbox-over-royalties-to-duke-nukem-forever/
>Gearbox says 3D Realms is the only party who actually benefited from the transaction. In fact, Gearbox actually claims it lost money and suffered damage to its reputation as a result of the failed video game
and the origin of his company's name:

>>339246862
What if Randy told a half-truth with Duke Nukem Forever and he's saying the 2001/2002 build is awesome? Fun fact: that version was 95% complete just needed polishing with the multiplayer. Fresch the new CEO of 3D Realms has an archive of all of 3DR's work and played the 2002 DNF.
>>339247303
>What if Randy told a half-truth with Duke Nukem Forever and he's saying the 2001/2002 build is awesome?
He was talking about the released game, though.
>>339245810
The Mona Lisa of shitposting
>>339244954
Probably because it has to do with video games and noone care about video game politics unless you are a 25 yo manchild virgin neckbeard
Exactly like OP that is
>>339247303
2002 DNF wouldn't have passed muster today.
He has a winning complexion, a good smile, and he knows how to sell shit, these are all very important to market a product.
He also chooses his words carefully, very rarely has he ever outright lied to the consumer, but he certainly exaggerates a lot of things in his showcases to make it seem more appealing (eg. "see that mountain? you can climb it." you actually could climb that mountain, but only up one path and you couldn't reach the summit until halfway through the main quest).
He could sell ice to eskimos if he wanted to, and thats why his games sell, plain and simple.
that and this shithole board is tsundere for him.
>>339245316
>>339245448
>>339245672
>I hate sonyggers more than you!
We all should hate fanbases, but you circlejerking faggots know the game sold well on all platforms so your favorite platform's fanbases are equally to blame.
>>339244954
because he gets lied to by his inferiors on a daily basis
if half of you worked in a game company, or any company, you would understand
>>339244954
Making games people want to play?
Most people have no idea who made the game or what was promised and judge it on its own merits.
Bethesda has found their audience and for many ITT it aint you.
You may be shocked to know most people give no fucks about things you hold dear.
all these bethesda+console fag tears

You guys are just jealous of how good looking and successful Todd is.
>tfw game crashes like crazy after installing the latest patch along with a few mods
>>339244954
Because we don't care. We'll continue playing his games because we enjoy them. You can bet I'll be lining up to preorder Elder Scrolls VI.
>>339244954
Yes, it's one of the greatest mysteries of our time. Seriously though, this happens ... so often. And noone gets sued over it? I don't understand. The gaming industry is so big. But noone gives a shit? Todd has lied, many times. And this doesn't just apply to Bethesda that's for sure.

>>339244954
The one thing I hated about settlement building is that it was fucking pointless.
You wall off a settlement and have just a gate and guns to protect them. An attack comes and one of two things happens.
You settlers leave the base to fight the attackers instead of letting the auto defenses pick them off and some of your settlers die.
Or the enemy walks right in through the front gate.
BS like that is why I dropped the game.
>>339252954
>where are our mods, Todd? Where are the mods that made Skyrim so popular post-launch, Todd? We're running out of content, Todd. Grinding mobs in your shitty shooter is only fun for so long, Todd. Todd? Todd!

yes there's no way those are false flags

>>339254736
are his jeans photoshopped to look like he peed his pants?
>>339254736
To be honest I don't think he's tippytoeing. Those are like, fucking military boots but ignoring that, they have heels. Not sure what they're called.
>>339254792
Perhaps. The tip-toe is real though.
I just don't understand why the bastard won't release Skyrim on new-gen consoles. It's more money for Bethesda, always a plus.
>>339254736
why do they do this
do they think no one will notice

>>339244954
Your examples aren't even his best lies.
He repeatedly talked about how Throat of the World in Skyrim was supposed to have 7000 steps to the top.
In this interview he even says that he would personally count all the steps:
http://www.gameinformer.com/b/podcasts/archive/2011/02/03/toddhowardse.aspx
Guess how many steps there actually are748
>>339256012
He can't keep getting away with it, /v/
>>339256012
Maybe he was talking about actual steps you take, not the stone steps.
>>339244954
Is he a gamer?

The road is literally called the 7000 steps.
And yeah people even tried walking and counting the steps, and it was nowhere near 7000.
>>339256716
And he's tiptoeing and STILL BARELY BELOW HER
>>339256716
Look at todd he is standing on his tip toes >>339256409
Remember when Todd said you could affect the local economies in Skyrim and shit, if you killed the people running the sawmill etc?
>>339256797
He's not. Look at his boots, they have the back heel thing I have no idea what the word is for. There's also the position of the camera and the shitty lighting.
Todd's boots are probably steel-tipped
>>339256354

Oh fuck, did I just use logic? It's beyond me how you basement dwelling weebs are incapable of comprehending that heels would make a woman taller.
>>339245672
Jesus Christ shut up you giant nintendrone faggot.
>>339256976
>>339256924
JESUS FUCK
TODD IS CLEARLY STANDING IN HIS TIPTOE
LOOK AT THAT, HIS BOOTS ALMOST AS TALL AS HER HEELS
FUCK OFF TODD
>>339256924
look at the crease in his boot and the angle of which his foot is at he is tip toeing.
Where did Todd claim he was 6' 2"?
Because that shit is fucking hilarious if that was his own claim
>>339256716

I'd say he deserves a thing like that.
Though it's been more like 30 years than a lifetime, but whatever.
>>339257536
God you dumb cunts. Do I have to spell out I hate Bethesda and detest Todd's lies for you to believe me or some shit? He's not tippytoeing. He has a massive fucking heel on his fucking boots. The heel wouldn't be touching the floor if he was tippytoeing.

It is brutal, I'm glad I'm at least an average height.
I don't think Todd actually lies as much as he's just overly enthusiastic about his mediocre games.
>>339257750
So he has a fucking heel and still tiptoeing?
You're all fucking done. Each and every one of you.

Its called perspective. The way the photo was taken gives the illusion that hes tip toeing and shorter than he actually is.
