Todd Vaughn has retired from Bethesda Softworks, sending fans into a brief panic at the thought of Todd Howard's departure.

Vaughn worked at the hit factory for over 26 years, eventually climbing up the ranks to become the company's senior vice president of development, where he oversaw mammoth games like Skyrim, Fallout 4, Doom's reboot, and most recently, Oblivion Remastered. According to his LinkedIn, he now seems to co-own a brewery, which would also make for a sweet RPG sim now that I think about it.
