I think people really overstate Todd Howard lying to compare it Peter Molyneux's shit. Like we're looking at Molyneux who said you could plant a tree and have it grow in real time or whatever. The same Molyneux who promised a "life-changing" award for winning a P2W clicker game (the award was royalties and early access to Godus, a game which they abandoned for what was essentially Godus: Subtitle, which was promptly abandoned soon after). And now his most recent game being something that involves "blockchain technology" where you can make money in real life by making money in game.
