Bethesda, truely the most arrogant company in years.

It seems the folks over at Gameobserver conducted an interview with Ashely "The AZN" Cheng and among other things, he mentioned how they have no plans change engine. Oh yeah, this is the same Ashely Cheng who was disappointed that Blizzzard didn't make Star Craft 2 a first person shoot....stupidity of this grade can only come from Bethsoft folks.

"We’ve been building on top of Gamebryo for the past 8 years."

8 years and it still looks god awful compared to other middleware engines and hell, even other games that use Gamebryo.

"you name it -- we do it faster than anybody else in the industry. No one can match us when it comes to vast, open-ended beautiful worlds full of NPCs, quests and dialogue."

Hahahahaha, are you serious? They can't be THAT stupid. Games such as The Witcher, and the Gothic series did the open world design much MUCH better. Beautiful worlds? Never mind the fact that both Oblivion and Fallout look horribly dated when compared to games released around the same time. Quests? Bethesda certainly does have quite a few quests, too bad 95% of them are generic fetch quest that are poorly though out. Dialog? Yeah, too bad it's amateurish at best, honestly porn scripts have better writing.

"I am responsible for the overall schedule, making sure everyone is completing their work to a high quality and overseeing test cycles. I’m also responsible for voice recording and casting, localization and our relationships with outside entities like Microsoft and Sony."

Holy fuck! Did high quality get used in the same sentence as voice recording and casting, and test cycles? Bethesda's voice acting and casting is awful. The most common tactic used in a Bethsoft game is to hire some random big name actors or actresses and have them record maybe 3 hours of dialog each for there shallow and lifeless characters, then the gaming press has a fap-a-thon over how great Bethsofts VAing is, and ignore the real mean and potato's of the VAing in a Bethsoft game. If you look past the big name celebrity talent, you are left with some of the most down right mediocre VAing around. Oblivion and Fallout 3 had some of the worst VAing in the last couple of year. With the exception of Wes Johnson, Malcolm McDowell and Greg Schlear(spelling?), the VAing is a fucking train wreck of poor delivery, and piss poor direction. Test cycles? They do that at Bethsoft? I guess that explains why the game is buggy as hell and two DLC released a total train wreck.

Here's a new slogan for Bethsoft... "Bethesda, arrogant as fuck."
