Some people have been feeling like Todd Howard has been acting differently lately (I don't see it all that much personally) and a popular Bethesda/RPG YouTuber named MrMattyPlays chimed in.

He claims Todd lacks the humor he once had and said that he has interacted with Todd a number of times where he called him out for clickbait and made a joke in the bathroom about him having a "nice penis".

Obviously, no idea if this actually happened and based on everything I've ever seen from Todd Howard, doesn't seem like something he'd say but I don't know him personally. It's a weird comment, nonetheless.

He makes these comments starting at about 8:50 in the video:

Given Todd's documented propensity for untruths or exaggerations, I'd be a little concerned if he complimented my unit.

Not to say that he's lying, but didn't someone say this exact thing about Reggie a couple years ago? I swear a similar thing apparently happened with someone associated with Nintendo

I saw Todd Howard at a grocery store in Los Angeles yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn't want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.
He said, "Oh, like you're doing now?"
I was taken aback, and all I could say was "Huh?" but he kept cutting me off and going "huh? huh? huh?" and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying.
The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like "Sir, you need to pay for those first." At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.
When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually "to prevent any electrical infetterence," and then turned around and winked at me. I don't even think that's a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

Mr.Matty is kinda know for very low effort content amongst the fallout community, taking every written scrap detailing "leaks" and making videos on them

He seems to be the same to me; self-deprecating humor in his presentations. He's probably stressed out from directing one major game at a time to having to manage people working on Fallout 76, Starfield, VR Skyrim, VR Fallout 4, Fallout Shelter and TES Blades in four different offices in different countries. Even if they're subbing out some of this work, I think BGS over-extended too much.

The interview with Musk was a little off, but that whole interview was weird. Musk was certainly not any better.

Analyzing a game industry exec's recent E3 stage appearance for over 10 minutes... is this what the T-junction between desperation, obsession, and a tonne of free-time looks like?

The transition from "BGS has released a bad game" to "Todd Howard is personally responsible for releasing a bad game because he lied" to stuff about his personal life is pretty creepy and I don't really think we should be signal boosting it here personally

This thread title seems pretty odd given that youtuber barely talks about this subject. Instead of being concerned with Howard you are trying to do what?
