Notch & Todd Howard - The One-on-One Interview

[OblivionZealot]

When I play a Bethesda game I always just explore and avoid quests, and then I finnish ALL of them and then I start over as a new class xD

[OblivionZealot]

''And the winner gets a pie of their own choice.'' xD

[thamahomie]

Thums up if you think Mojang and Bethesda is the best game-makers :)

[TesWalkthroughs]

@thamahomie Lol Mojang is not good.

[FineFuse]

2 of my favourite on the planet in the same room talking about games.......

[derkomissar100]

Minecraft = Legos on the computer.

[gamestation88]

notch used to be good but then he took an arrow in the knee

[LiveMinecrafting]

12:59 I did that! still busy though lol

[roflzroflz11256]

Todd Howard AND Notch?!?!?! This is the greatest thing since peanut butter and jelly!

[roflzroflz11256]

@iFYMxDRKNSFALLS Bethesda's publishing company sued Mojang for using the name "scrolls". Minecraft didn't "go gold" ever. Minecraft was just an official game on Nov. 18. The "Easter egg" as notch has said, was not planned.

[hat1324]

@DEADLYKILL8R Im surprused you disnt get flamed out of the building for that

[hat1324]

Harharhar *ESBERN*

[jeltevanderveer]

It is akward! Wow!

Todd howard obviosly makes better games and notch is fan of that game so he takes the moral highground. Todd howard all the way baby

[MrKapman45]

Thumbs up if u were expecting Todd to say, "Soo yeah, oh and im suing you for using Scrolls as the title for your game, see you in court"

[MaitredeDieu]

Dramatic Todd VS Fun Notch : lovely how their vision is different and got cross points.

They really should make a baby SkyCraft and the main ennemy shall be a Creepgon (a mix of a dragon and a creeper).

Ofc, there will be no fancy bu.. features in this perfect game.

.

Oh wait : you want to pirate BetheJang's games ?

THEN PAY WITH YOUR BLOOD !

[LargeMcBottoms]

Best part has to be when Notch gives Todd a stern look when Notch starts talking about how he tried to use bows in Oblivion. Todd got judged so hard.

[SortingStuffOutMan]

It's kinda like Obi Wan talking to Porkins the fat rebel

[sigmundohi]

cant really tell if Howard is akward or just a dousche.. Notch seem a decent enough guy though.

[Kessler899]

@sigmundohi Why do you get the impression that Todd is a douche?

[SoreThumbSociety]

That was interesting. Cool watching these guys talk about games as players who play them..

[TheArtjom2033]

It looks like they're in an interrogation room...

[ZarkTide]

couldnt have been filmed e3 2010, cuz skyrim hadnt been announced yet

[SrSomoza]

@ZarkTide It was published in g.i. in 14 Jun 2011 so maybe he meant e3 2011

[DEADLYKILL8R]

Sorry but Minecraft is a dumb game, about as much fun as playing CoD online.

[SortingStuffOutMan]

"i can play minecraft?" LOL

[ForeverFeralStudios]

Todd Howard cussed! :O

[TheRedeemedX]

Next Game Creator 1 on 1 review idea:

The Creators of Gears of War and Halo.

[TheRedeemedX]

@TheRedeemedX Or the Creators of Batman: Arhham City and Assassin's Creed.

[THS1537]

I really like these guys. I could hear them talk for hours and hours.

[Fuperbooper]

I... WANT... THAT... SHIRT!

[GuyWithBluePoop]

Jesus Gameinformer is going ape shit by uploading all these old videos :)

[2ndarc]

these guys are awesome :)

[cpuser37]

Bethesda should make some sort of DLC patch that allows modding on PS3 and Xbox360 for Skyrim. Giving people tools that they can use to create their own mods and then post them maybe on the internet on a site so people can download them and put them on their console via a USB jumpdrive.... or something? lol of course the Modding DLC should be reasonably priced, maybe $5 at most. Todd Howard, I'm looking at YOU!

[jjja494]

@cpuser37 Thats impossible, and or probably illegal.

[cpuser37]

@jjja494

and what makes it so impossible/illegal?

[xxIVI4s0nxx]

@jjja494 wat? yes impossible,but illegal not check nexus for fallout new vegas mods bethesda loves seeing its audience making content,just check nexus ^.^

[gingermadman]

@cpuser37 Except Todd Howard has no say. Microsoft are cunts and won't ever allow this. It's possible on PS3 but it's probably not even worth it.

[imaspazz1]

Yay now they are friends they should create a game called "skycraft" or something

[SketchyGamerMan]

Todd is a fucking BOSS!!!

[pnroyal]

I like the way Todd Howard says "I am aware of that" with kind of a smirk when Notch says that Microsoft wants Kinect on everything. I wonder how hard Microsoft pushed for Kinect to be in Skyrim? I can just picture some marketing guy trying to sell Bethesda on the concept of Dragon Shouts being done through Kinects voice activation and Todd Howard just shaking his head the whole time.

[pcbb01]

@pnroyal the only game I like playing in this motionbullshit is skyward sword...If skyrim is kinect-playable...I will destroy my xbox and buy a ps3

[declanpitts]

Why cant I post a link?

[declanpitts]

I know a few people creating the whole Elder Scrolls map in Minecraft!

[Silverblade89]

Isn't this old? I'm sure I saw something like this before a long time ago...

[gameinformer]

@Silverblade89 Yeah, we filmed this at E3 2010.

[Saroku1000]

@gameinformer how could this be, Todd uses "Vita" and "NGP", those 2 names are out since 2011

[yohanZ95]

Hahahaha this is soo good :D

[iFYMxDRKNSFALLS]

hmmm...Bethesda sued notch and notch makes Minecraft go Gold on 11/11/11 and theres a minecraft easter egg in skyrim...something fishy is going on here

[Silverblade89]

@iFYMxDRKNSFALLS What kind of Easter Egg? This is rather interesting now.... >_>

[dragonsegg100]

@Silverblade89 A "notched pickaxe" on top of a mountain in skyrim.

[SketchyGamerMan]

@iFYMxDRKNSFALLS

I don't think the game designers at Bethesda Game Studios were personally responsible for that though.

[kidchopstix]

@iFYMxDRKNSFALLS I smell a conspiracy

[kidchopstix]

I think that the whole lawsuit was a move by their lawyers to establish they have authority, i doubt Todd Howard just said "SUE SUE SUE!!!!"

[grimmviral]

@iFYMxDRKNSFALLS ZeniMax, the parent company of Bethesda sued Notch.

[S0ryiu]

@iFYMxDRKNSFALLS It has more do with Bethesda's higher ups suing notch. I'm sure that Todd Howarrd and his team would love to have the suit dropped.

[ImHereForTheMusic21]

@iFYMxDRKNSFALLS What easter egg?

[iFYMxDRKNSFALLS]

@ImHereForTheMusic21 /watch?v=TiQAAvX7r0A it has notch's Axe and ore

[ipopubad]

@iFYMxDRKNSFALLS just have to correct you, it was the bethesda legal team that had to sue mojang not the actual developers like todd howard

[iFYMxDRKNSFALLS]

@ipopubad im sure it was them, but who is really going to go out of their way of saying Bethesda legal team was the ones who sued notch's Game company ...some will argue its still bethesda. which is true. but ya im sure Todd had no intention of suing Notch

[MajorPonch]

@iFYMxDRKNSFALLS The lawyers of Bethesda, and more importantly ZeniMax, their parent company, tried suing him. The developers, who ultimately decide what does and does not go in the game, did not.

[ImHereForTheMusic21]

@iFYMxDRKNSFALLS Oh yeah, I forgot about that.  I think that was something of an apology to notch.

[xxIVI4s0nxx]

@iFYMxDRKNSFALLS i found a goonies easter egg =D *checks to see if anyone else found it* FUCK!!!!!!!!!!

[travelfreak12]

@iFYMxDRKNSFALLS There are two Bethesda's an it properly wasn't even them it was most likely put through by Zenimax.

[JohnnyKvatch]

@iFYMxDRKNSFALLS no there isn't a minecraft Easter egg. the "notched pickaxe " was in oblivion before minecraft even was made

[ElvarK1]

@iFYMxDRKNSFALLS bethesda sued notch bethesda GAME STUDIOS did not.

Todd is actually against the lawsuit

[HamIsDie]

@ElvarK1 Interesting. Is that why Todd put the Notched Pickaxe in skyrim? Kind of like a peace treaty or sign of slight protest?

[ElvarK1]

@HamIsDie No, probably because he and almost all of his staff just likes the game.

[HamIsDie]

@ElvarK1 lol.. maybe i over thought that one. 8===D~~~~~

[WiLdBilL565]

@iFYMxDRKNSFALLS Bethesda didn't sue them, it was Zenimax who went after them.So Bethesda was just pushed into it because they are under zenimax, but they respect eachother immensley

[TesWalkthroughs]

@iFYMxDRKNSFALLS Bethesda is not just one company... it's a big company.
