Bethesda executive producer Todd Howard has been a regular Chatty Cathy as of late. Yesterday he dropped a number of new hints and details about the future of The Elder Scrolls and Fallout franchises, and today he took to Reddit for a quick AMA in which he revealed a bit more about Bethesda’s upcoming sci-fi RPG Starfield. For instance, when asked about Starfield’s character creation process, and whether it would resemble Morrowind and Oblivion’s more in-depth systems, Howard said he was “really excited” about what has been developed and promised in-depth backstories and more for players’ characters.

Really excited about what the team has done with character creation here. Including choosing background, skills, etc. You also can pick your pronoun (he, she, they) and we've recorded all the relevant dialogue to support that choice.
