Bethesda had faced many challenges over the last decade and a half.
But now they face a very… unique problem.
Their owner is a horse.
With Elder Scrolls IV having been pushed back yet again Microsoft sold the company to the co-ruler of the extra-dimensional land of Equestria.
Princess Luna.
In exchange for half a billion bits (two and a half billion dollars) the Princess of the Night, otherwise known as the Princess of Gamers became the sole owner of Bethesda which had separated from its parent company in the process.
Now the Princess seeks to bring about a new golden age for the company. To do this she had enlisted the help of the Main Six, Equestria’s for most experts in problem fixing.
Not that many of them were very enthusiastic about the idea.
“With all due respect Princess Luna, we don’t know anything about making video games. How could we possibly help?” Twilight asked.
While being able to visit the human world and learn everything she could about it naturally excited the Princess of Nerds Friendship more than the idea of Big Mac covered in sweat and olive oil (don’t judge her all AJ’s friends get excited at that) she knew squat about video games.
“Fear not friends, we have faith in your abilities to aid in our open world rpg making plans” Luna stated, her voice dripping with royal confidence.
The Main Six looked at each other, first with doubt but eventually the former genocidal maniac’s confidence became infectious.
“Alright Princess, we’ll do our best” Rainbow said with the usual cockiness she was known for.
“Good, now we have delegated various tasks that we believe suit each of you. Applejack and Rainbow Dash, you shall work on Fallout 5, Twilight Sparkle and Rarity, you shall work on Elder Scrolls: Hammerfell-“ Luna said, being interrupted as she dished out tasks.
“Ooh ooh ooh! What about me! What about me!?” Pinkie said, raising her hoof high in the air.
“Pinkie don’t interrupt the princess” Rainbow whispered.
“You Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy have the most important of tasks” Luna continued, unphased by the interruption “emotional support ponies”
Upon hearing their jobs, both mares tilted their heads in confusion.
“We have observed that after the thirteenth hour of their sixteen hour shifts productivity among the coding serfs tends to decrease steadily” Luna explained.
With a unanimous jaw drop, the Mane Six looked with shocked expressions at the alicorn.
“What?” Luna asked, raising an eyebrow.
“Princess, we know you have been away for a long time and aren’t that up to date with labour laws-“ Twilight began.
“We know all about labour laws Twilight Sparkle, we are the law and the serfs are the labour. We are not just a pretty face” Luna interrupted.
“Yeah well that’s how it was Princess. But I run a farm and even I don’t work that many hours” Applejack explained.
“No wonder the Equestrian economy is in the gutter, recent generations don’t know the true virtue of hard work” Luna huffed.
Being unable to change the Princess of Boomer’s mind (and Twilight ripping part of her mane out trying to explain what a union was) the Mane Six got to work on Elder Scrolls 6 and Fallout 5.
With the Mane Six going off to their various projects, Luna hosted a meeting with Todd Howard. Due to his years of experience as the former executive producer she had kept him on as an advisor.
“Tell me Sir Todd of Howard. Why did you release three separate “special editions” of Skyrim?” Luna asked, referencing the Special Edition, Legendary Edition and Anniversary. Not including the releases on separate consoles or VR.
“It just works” Todd Howard explained.
After hours of the Princess listening to the great wisdom of the game creator, the Main Six returned, the first two groups bringing a disk each while Pinkie and Fluttershy brought nothing.
Although Pinkie was dressed in a fur hat with a hammer and sickle badge on it.
“You’re done already? But Sir Todd of Howard took years to simply announce Elder Scrolls VI” Luna asked, surprised at the progress they made.
“Yep! Here you go Princess, two sequels way beyond 20% cooler then the last ones” Rainbow bragged.
“But how?” Luna asked.
“Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeh, the Magic of Friendship” Twilight explained.
“Seems legit” Todd nodded.
“Also apparently Bethesda got something called “Microsoft Money” before you bought it” Twilight continued.
“Well, we are pleased with your speed. May we see the gam-“ Luna began before Pinkie barged to the front of the group.
“Not so fast you capitalist dog!” The pink pony declared.
“Pinkie!”
“Sugar-cube don’t!”
“Don’t listen to them Pinks keep going!”
Despite her friends' efforts to stop her, Pinkie stepped forward to stand directly in front of Luna.
Standing twice the earth pony’s height, Luna loomed over Pinkie.
“Pinkamina, think very carefully about what you say next. I AM your Princess” Luna stated, the aura of authority surrounding her.
“I am Pinkamina no longer! I am Comrade Pinkie of the Bethesda Revolutionary Party! And I have demands from our members!” Pinkie stated, pulling out a sheet of paper from the parts of her mane that her fur hat failed to cover.
Slamming it on Luna’s desk Pinkie sat while the Princess began reading it.
A 40 hour work week.
Being paid in dollars instead of grains and sugar.
Weekly head pats for fluffy ponies.
“These are outrageous! We will never submit to this nonsense!” Luna refused, slamming the paper back on the desk.
“Wait, is that why my desk is covered in ants?” Todd asked as he read over the alicorn’s shoulder.
“Not now Sir Todd of Howard!” Luna snapped.
“If these needs are not met we will strike until you bend the heel!” Pinkie threatened.
“Then we will find new serfs employees and fire those treasonous fools” Luna threatened.
She wouldn’t, but she’d make it look like she was going to in order to scare them into submission.
“Well if that’s how you wanna play it” Pinkie said, pulling out some photos and putting them on Luna’s desk.
The girls couldn’t see it, but they saw a look of horror on Luna’s face.
“Where did you get these!?” Luna gasped.
“Not important, if you do now meet our demands I will show these to Princess Celestia” Pinkie threatened, a sweet smile in her face.
Creating a meme worthy frown, Luna let out a long and heavy groan.
“Fine! We will let our employees become lazy and have to buy their own bread” Luna relented.
“Yay! Thank you Princess!” Pinkie thanked, a squeaking sound playing as she smiled.
“Yes yes, now let us test the games. Sir Todd, our royal gamer console” Luna said, eyes rolling as she did.
“Uuuuh, we don’t have a console. This is a business office” Todd Howard explained.
“Oh for buck sake why don’t you all just line up and rut me!” Luna snapped as the list of inconveniences started growing.
“Hey Pinkie, what was in those photos that had the Princess so scared?” Rainbow asked, whispering as the Princess of the Night ranted to Todd Howard.
“Pictures of her and Big Mac’s secret dates they go on each weekend” Pinkie whispered back.
…
“Wait what?” Applejack asked, overhearing their conversation.
AN: Loony can’t win can she? Still she got what we’ve waited years for due to the power of plot convenience.
Also the Mane Six (minus AJ) simp for Big Mac in this universe because I find it funny.
After acquiring game consoles, both Luna and Sir Todd of Howard began going through Fallout 5.
Hours passed, as the two started out leaving Vault 99 under Austin. Their purpose, find other Vaults so they may join together and rebuild America. From there they explored the raider infested ruins of the city.
Making their way through the city they eventually met a squad of the Brotherhood of Steel.
“Why is the Brotherhood in every Fallout game again? They seem to show up everywhere” Twilight asked as Luna did the first of an eight part quest-line to join the Brotherhood.
“It just works” Todd Howard explained.
As they continued to play, the true size of the map became overwhelmingly apparent for the two as it took more and more time to reach one end of it from the other.
“This map is huge. How’d you fit it into such a small file size?” Todd Howard asked, thinking how much he could make off Skyrim Super Special edition with this map size.
“Magic Darling, it’s always magic. Or friendship” Rarity explained.
“It is quite expansive, how large is the map we ask?” Luna asked as she shot a super mutant behemoth with a fat man.
“About one hundred square miles your Highness, one twenty if you include Oklahoma” Rainbow bragged about the size of her and Applejack’s game map.
“That’s a big map for a Bethesda game. Won’t it take forever to get anywhere without fast travel?” Todd asked.
“Each of the three major factions have their own unique way of speeding up travelling. The Rangers have their Hi Ho Silvers, the Brotherhood have Verti-Birds and the Legion have Chariots. Although I’m still a little uncomfortable with the idea that there are pony-like creatures that you humans ride like a train” Rainbow explained.
While the main plot-line revolves around discovering missing components to Project Lone-star, a fusion reactor hooked up to an oversized Garden of Eden Creation Kit that the three major factions would fight over, Luna was more interested in using the 100 buildable settlements to build expansive palaces for herself.
Also doing any side quests that got her items to decorate said palaces.
“Erm, your Highness? Ain’t you gonna start the main quest?” Applejack asked.
“Nah, we are good. Now how many statues should we put in our summer palace?” Luna asked as she put a horse statue down in the centre of her custom fountain.
Three weeks passed, bugs were patched and the Princess playing nine hours a day and Sir Todd of Howard playing only two-three because he had a job and family.
“Princess we need to talk” Twilight states as Luna built yet another palace.
“Hmm?” She hummed.
“I’m sure Applejack and Rainbow are happy that you are having fun but there’s more to the game than just building settlements” Twilight stated.
Uncharacteristically, Applejack hasn’t just confronted Luna about using Fallout 5 as a glorified Sims game. But with the launch of the game just one month away it was cutting it a little close.
“Oh come now Twilight We haven’t spent that much time constructing architectural wonders” Luna stated as she made a scrap metal replica of Canterlot Castle over a ruined Enclave bunker.
“Todd’s completed the main quest already” Twilight stone faced.
Letting that set in, Luna debated internally for a moment or two before replying.
“Fine, We shall fulfil our obligation to finish the main quest” Luna relented.
Over a monster fuelled three day binge, Luna completed the main quest, several faction quests and still had time to finish her Saddle Arabian style Gulf palace.
She sided with the Rangers, the descendants of the Texas Rangers, riding across the wastes on mechanical horses known as Hi Ho Silvers dispensing justice on raiders and slavers wherever they might be.
Later she went to Houston where the Brotherhood made their base and talked to Elder Grant and made an alliance with them against Caesar's Legion with her 100+ charisma build.
Which may or may not only work because her avatar has a cowboy hat on.
After the final battle the Legion was kicked out of Texas (although a few raiding parties remained) Project Lonestar was activated. As a result all settlements gained +20 electricity and +10 food and water.
“So Princess, what did ya think?” AJ asked, hoping for some fair feedback.
Opposed to answering, Luna let out a loud snore. Having stayed up for seventy two hours straight drained her energy.
“I think it’s safe to say she liked it” Twilight said with a light giggle.
“Of course she did, it’s easily 20% cooler than the last game this place made” Rainbow Dash said confidently.
“Hey” Todd Howard replied, sounding personally insulted by that statement.
“I liked Starfield” Fluttershy whispered.
With the approval process out of the way Fallout 5 was announced, put into mass production and shipped out to stores across Earth and Equestria.
It would go on to sell thirty million copies on Earth and five million in Equestria.
“One billion three hundred and ninety nine million nine hundred and ninety nine thousand nine hundred and ninety nine, and one billion four hundred million. Once you take out expenses and taxes that’s still just over seven hundred and fifty million profit. Not bad, not bad at all” Todd said, having to manually count all the money they made due to Luna not trusting accountants.
“Gotta say, I’m sure glad we went with this idea instead of the first one” Applejack chuckled, thoughts of how many apple trees she could plant with her royalty checks already filling her head.
“First one?” Todd asked, bandaging the paper cuts from counting all those dollar bills.
“Well at first we wanted the big bad to be a ghoul from before the war who thought he was an Aztec god. Before the war he got cybernetic implants but went nuts and spent the next two hundred years taking over Mexico with an army of cyborgs. The player was supposed to ally at least two of the factions together to push him back, taking over settlements one after the other in huge battles with hundreds of NPCs involved before confronting him in a temple built over the lab he was augmented in” Rainbow Dash explained.
“But we thought the game would be too long and taking EVERY big settlement just so you don’t get jumped by a bunch of enemies every ten minutes so we went with a different idea” AJ continued.
“Also the map would have been nearly three times as big so without a Verti-Bird it would have been a pain in the rump to get anything done” Rainbow continued.
With this information Todd’s brain began plotting something
“Do you still have the original game on file?” He asked.
“Sure, we kept it just in case the Princess didn’t like the game we gave her” Applejack said.
“Not that she would, anything we make is awesome” Rainbow stated confidently.
That put a sly grin on Todd’s face.
“Tell me girls, have you ever heard of a DLC?” Todd asked.

“Twilight get more nails!” Rarity yelled as she held a wooden plank against the door.
“I’m trying! These office supplies don't have any!” Twilight called out as she frantically looked for more nails.
With the massive success of Fallout 5 and its DLC Wrath of the Aztecs it was time to think about releasing Elder Scrolls VI: Hammerfell.
The problem was that Sir Todd Howard kept trying to break down the door and convince them to use their magic game engine doodad to make the Super Special Awesome Chocolaty Fudge Edition of Skyrim.
“Quickly! Order more off Amazon!” Rarity said.
“No! They destroy small businesses and I don’t like how their CEO’s spaceships make me drool” Twilight protested.
“May We start playing the game Princess Sparkle?” Luna asked unbothered as her chief advisor attempted to kick down the door.
“Erm, of course Princess, here it is” Twilight agreed as she inserted the disk into the console because she didn’t trust purely digital games.
Before the logo screen could finish a chainsaw broke through the barricades and Todd Howard, his eyes filled with madness behind the safety goggles he was wearing.
“Right now as I was saying before you locked me out. I know if we re-release Skyrim with updated graphics, more customisation options and at least ten new armour items we could completely revolutionise what players know about RPGs” Todd argued.
“Todd we aren’t re-releasing Skyrim!” Twilight said defiantly, standing alone between her and Rarity’s work and the dreamer.
This was due Rarity having to fish splinters out her otherwise perfect mane.
“You don’t get Twilight, we could take Skyrim to its maximum potential. Twice as much definition, four times as much realism, horse armour Twilight. HORSE. ARMOUR” Todd continued as he discarded the chainsaw.
“Princess do something, you're his boss!” Twilight pleaded.
“Tell me more about these new clothes items” Luna requested.
Things were looking dire.
Luna was being seduced by the power of the dark side. If this wasn’t stopped soon, Hammerfell will never see the light of day.
She had to think fast, she had to break the power of Skyrim.
But how?
“Well, first we’ll bring in scraped clothing items that didn’t make it into the first release. I’ve got at least three flash drives worth so we’re set. All that must be done is update the game to the new system and-“ Todd was explaining before being interrupted.
“Hey Todd!” Twilight called out.
Turning his attention to the purple pony princess Todd’s eyes, first filled with madness, were now filled with fear.
Held in her telekinetic grasp, Twilight possessed a copy of Skyrim and a lighter.
“Is- is that an original edition Skyrim disk?” He stuttered.
“This is for your own good Todd” Twilight said as she lit the lighter.
“Noooooooooooooooooooo!” Todd screeched, his voice becoming demonic as the flame began to spread over the box.
Watching the plastic melt and the disk within burn away Todd began to violently shake about, falling to his knees as a cloud of black smoke poured out his mouth.
Collapsing to the ground, Todd fell unconscious.
Taking form, the black cloud grew a pair of deep green eyes and a burning red horn.
“Sombra!?” Luna gasped.
“Sombra” Twilight confirmed, glaring at the former tyrant of the Crystal Empire.
Letting out a vile laugh, Sombra took form over Todd’s body.
“Yes yes you’ve figured it out. I survived our last battle, but I needed a new way to take back the Empire. So I tore open a portal through space, possessing the body of this human. From there I created a game so popular I could milk it indefinitely, then once the prissy pink pretender to my throne put the Empires crystal mines on the stock market I began secretly buying back my monopoly one share at a time. But this planet’s economy is fucked, their money is only valuable because the government says it is. I need billions of dollars to buy millions in stocks on the Equestrian exchange” Sombra explained his evil plan.
“So thou art the reason ES6 took forever!” Luna accused Sombra, pointing her hoof at him in an accusing manner.
“What? Oh no, this company is working on way too many projects at once and don’t have nearly enough staff to pump them all out at a steady rate like Ubisoft or other AAA companies” Sombra explained.
“Oh, well We suppose that We owe you an apology” Luna back-pedalled.
“Although I’ve secretly been controlling them for a decade that’s why if you want to play Assassin's Creed Shadows you need to pay 120 bucks for the Moist Edition” Sombra added.
“You fiend! Face the wrath of the Princess of Gamers!” Luna called out in the Royal Canterlot Voice, ready to recreate all the finishing moves she learnt from playing Space Marine II on the dark unicorn.
Firing off a powerful blast of pure magic, Luna was unprepared for the counter strike.
Turning into smoke to avoid the attack, Sombra reformed behind the Princess of the Night and sealed her in a bubble of dark magic.
“What!? How!?” Luna called out, her voice slightly muffled by the bubble.
“In Pokémon terms? Princess types are weak against Villain types” Sombra explained, probably secretly owning Nintendo as well.
With the explanation of who Celestia is about as useful as a wet paper towel against most villains having been said, Twilight acted quickly.
Pulling the game console containing Elder Scrolls VI away from Sombra she stood her ground, even as the tyrant closed the distance between them.
“There’s no need to fight Twilight, give me Elder Scrolls VI, let me make a Legendary, Special, GOTY and Anniversary Edition of it so I can milk its popularity for another fifteen years. Hell, if we add a multiplayer mode and paid mods we could milk it for at least twenty five years! We can be rich and powerful, we could rule Equestria together!” Sombra offered.
“I’ll never join you! Why would you even think I would join you!?” Twilight scowled.
“I can rut for over an hour straight and I stole some of Celestia and Luna’s foal photos after I turned evil. Join me and you may have both” Sombra offered.
A moment of silence passed over the room, broken only by the sound of Luna trying to get out of her bubble.
“Princeeeeeees! I’m being tempted!” Twilight whined as her cheeks went a deep shade of red.
“Resist Twilight! He’s a terrible romantic partner, he always tries to split the bill!” Luna warned.
Her magic wouldn’t work on Sombra and her friends were who knows where. Twilight had to think fast.
The fate of millions of nerds laid in her hooves.
Without a second thought she threw the console at Sombra. Unprepared for it his eyes went wide as it smashed into his muzzle, crushing his nose before falling to the floor with a thud.
“Ow! (Sucks air in through his teeth) did you just throw a PlayStation 5 Pro at me?” Sombra hissed as he rubbed his broken nose.
“Yeah, I guess?” Twilight replied.
Summoning an evil first aid kit, Sombra tended to his bloody nose.
“You know what? Forget this place, I’m going to go possess the CEO of Apple again. Hope humanity likes paying fifteen hundred dollars for a phone that costs nine bucks to make” Sombra snorted before disappearing in a cloud of smoke.
“Twilight!” The rest of the Mane Six arrived just moments after they could have been useful.
“What happened to Todd Howard?” Rainbow asked as the former CEO was drooling over the floor in a semi-coma like state.
“Sombra survived the Crystal Heart and has been possessing Todd for years. I’ll have to call Cadence and warn her that he’s trying to buy the Empire out from under her” Twilight explained.
With the shock of Sombra’s return setting in, the Mane Six figured out how to get Luna out of the bubble.
And by figured out I mean Pinkie popped it with a needle.
“What if the royal PS5? Is it still functional?” Luna asked.
Picking up the dented, now blood stained PS5 Pro, Twilight tried plugging it in to see if it still worked.
“Huh, the loading screen seems to be going faster now” Twilight mused as the dented console seemed to be working better then before.
“Guuuuuah!” Todd groaned as he got back to his feet “what happened?”
“You were possessed by an evil pony named Sombra. But it’s ok now, Twilight threw a PlayStation at him” Pinkie explained.
“Wha?” Todd asked, rubbing the side of his head like he had a major hangover.
“Let’s just check that none of Sombra’s influence remained. Todd darling, do you think we should re-release a special edition of Skyrim?” Rarity asked.
“What? No, that’s insane. We’ve made that game already” Todd responded with a bewildered look on his face at the suggestion.
“Ok he’s free, let’s play the game already” Rainbow said impatiently.
Booting up the game on their respective consoles, Luna and Todd Howard watched as the opening scene played out.
While the graphics were beyond anything Bethesda had seen before, a work of Rarity’s sense of style, there was something eerily familiar about the first few minutes of Hammerfell.
“Hey, you're finally awake”
Seeing the events of Helgen play out in 8k definition, all eyes fell on Twilight and Rarity.
“It’s only been five years since the events of Skyrim in game in-universe. I thought the players could use a refresh” Twilight sheepishly explained.
“And I thought the armour could use some cosmetic improvements…” Rarity followed up.
“Twilight, Rarity, I think I love you” Todd admitted, making both mares blush.
After speed running Alduin into the dirt the Dragonborn gets a new quest not seen in the OG game.
A messenger delivers a letter inviting them to the province of Hammerfell.
After trekking through the frozen wastes of Skyrim a wagon is waiting on the border with Cyrodiil.
“We should probably make that an optional feature” Twilight admitted.
“I liked it” Todd Howard said, trying to cheer her up.
Getting into the actual game, the Player Character begins as a prisoner aboard a ship bound for Hegathe. But when a sea serpent attacks they escape, commandeering a long boat and making for the coast.
Finding their way to Hegathe it’s apparent that Hammerfell has fallen on hard times.
The province is divided, while factions like the Crowns and Forbearers transcend borders, the province is split between major city states.
Hegathe is one of course, along with Gilane, Sentinel, Skaven, Dragonstar, Elinhir, Rihad and the Thalmor occupied Taneth.
Exploring the city they found themselves embroiled in a Altmer plot to reignite the invasion of Hammerfell.
Setting off to stop the Thalmor they meet companions from the Mage Guild, desert nomads, pirates from Hew’s Bane and Imperial sympathisers from Helkori’s Plains.
Being a pony of habit, Luna got distracted by side quests and other mechanics.
For Fallout it was building palace after palace after palace. In Elder Scrolls VI it’s businesses.
Each settlement had taverns, caravans, inns. All kinds of businesses. Some settlements had special kinds of businesses like wineries, silk merchants or spice traders.
Buying them is a source of income and positive relations with local npcs. Additionally it granted you quests centred around factors involved in running a business. Alternatively you could pay one of your employees to do it for you. That way the quests didn’t get tedious.
“Luna your nine quests behind you’re missing out” Todd said as he went into an ancient Redguard temple containing lost Altmer artefacts.
“Placement is irrelevant. I must possess all commerce in Hammerfell. Economic over the lands will ensure my claim to the title of Sultan is undisputed” Luna explained as she spammed at the alchemy table.
Once she had a daily passive income greater then the total wealth of forty middle class families, Luna actually got to the main quest.
Travelling across the province stopping plots and schemes, Luna also helped out the various local leaders with quests ranging from rescuing kidnapped relatives to taking down ships of the Pirate Clans.
After catching up to Todd, Luna solved the puzzles, fell into the traps and almost rage quit nine times trying to get to the centre of the ancient Redguard temple within the Alik’r Desert.
There she came face to face with the antagonist of the game Orinoril Thramus, a Thalmor agent who’s been sowing the conflict in Hammerfell since the games beginning.
Hiding behind a magic shield he stole the treasure at the heart of the temple, the Armour of Magnus.
Fighting through a horde of Thalmor agents, Luna emerged to find Hammerfell at war.
The Armour of Magnus allowed Orinoril to summon vast armies of master level Storm, Frost and Flame Thralls that now threaten the freedom of Hammerfell.
Setting off to unite the scattered realm against the Thalmor Luna unlocked two features.
Firstly was the Command System that allowed the recruitment, training and deployment of soldiers to aid the player in battle.
Secondly was the Electoral System which allowed the player to choose which regional leader they wanted to support for the position of Sultan of Hammerfell or to run themselves assuming their reputation with each of the other candidates was high enough. This was employed via a series of quests and speech craft checks to sway the voters.
After clearing Hammerfell of Thalmor forced the final battle in Taneth.
Fighting Orinoril ina prolonged boss fight she killed the elf and took the armour. Hammerfell was saved and Luna had taken the position of ruler of all Redguard.
“So… what did you think?” Twilight asked, her need for approval from Celestia being projected onto Luna.
“It was a fine game, definitely worth sitting through Skyrim for” Luna said approvingly, ignoring the look of betrayal on Todd Howard’s face.
“And what about you Todd darling?” Rarity asked.
Letting out a heavy sigh, Todd Howard put down the controller.
“Gotta say, this is actually better then Skyrim in my opinion” He complimented.
And most of the gaming community agreed. Within one week of being on the shelves Elder Scrolls VI: Hammerfell sold over one hundred million copies generating three billion dollars.
Two months later the DLC Pirates of the Burnt Coast was released allowing the players to play out their piratical fantasies, and kill even more Altmer via expanding the map to include the northern coast of the Summerset Isles.
It made an additional one billion dollars, same with the Equestrian edition which was just the game but set in an alt-universe version of Equestria.
Sat on a throne made out of fifty dollar bills, Luna scrolled through the public reviews of the games her company had produced.
“Lord Todd of Howard We have a question” Luna said, having promoted Todd Howard from Knight to Lord.
Sat on a smaller but equally uncomfortable throne of twenty dollar bills Todd replied “yes Princess?”
“What is a “Woke SJW Dumpster Fire” and why is the Condemming Eater calling our games it?” Luna asked.
Having a look at the royal galaxy phone Todd was surprised at the amount of people hating on the games for pushing “the message of soy beta male devaluing” along with counter comments saying that they “perpetuate the CIS fantasy of patriarchal blah blah blah”
“Well Princess, this is what we call People with too much time on their hands” Todd began to explain.
