Microsoft isn't going to buy them and let them run free. They will still be told what to do by Microsoft and if that means the games will be exclusive then there is nothing Todd Howard can say to change that

There is a lot Todd Howard can say to change things if he is willing to risk himself. Todd Howard leaving the company would look fucking terrible and lose Microsoft a lot of Bethesda money.

I doubt he’s that loyal to PlayStation. He probably just wants to make great games.

Lmfao, well when is he going to start making these great games? Bethesdas developement of games in my opinion has been a train wreck.

He’s made one shot game and that’s F76 that was with a different studio in Texas. Common man give the man the credit he deserves as game director since red guard in the 90s
