I don't mean to overreact, but someone needs to stop Skyrim design lead Bruce Nesmith before I actually start crying. The ex-Bethesda dev's been on a tear of late, chatting about everything from Todd Howard's tendency to "seagull" around the studio to his take on why Bethesda shouldn't ditch its venerable old in-house engine. That's all fine. Unforgivably, though, he's also told interviewers that he thinks anyone playing Morrowind today would "cringe" and that the game "would not stand the test of time."
Let me stop you right there, buster. I played Morrowind literally yesterday (via OpenMW) and that game is still the best thing Bethesda's ever done and one of the best games ever made. So jot that down.
