Adam Adamowicz was the concept artist for Bethesda. He passed away this past week. What an amazing concept artist he was and an essential part to Bethesda and their games. He did a damn good job on Skyrim, Oblivion, and Fallout 3. I'm not sure if there wil ever be another concept artist like Adam.
Rest In Peace.
Please read this page and view these slideshows showing off his amazing work.

Yes. We know. We don't need another person thinking that his contribution is greater than everyone else's, or even the earliest.
Fact is, we already know about his passing. You "paying your respects" is like someone going around in the middle of a street yelling and partying about Osama Bin Laden's death.

Ever.

Both are very logical things to do.
Adam was an amazing artist and Bin Laden was a piece of crap.
And I don't care if mine is better than someone else's. It's not the point. i did this because I'm a huge fan of all of Bethesda's members' work.

I don't care. There are countless repeated posts on here. If you don't like it, then don't come back.

I forgot to mention the other similarity of the two.
They're late. Far too late to make a difference.

Oh and some guy started a new one too.

Just because he was a bad man, doesn't mean he wasn't human. You should never celebrate someones death.

Yeah but tc's topic caused you to bump them causing that one guy to create one of his own. He's still the cause but it's a domino effect.

I believe that Adam would not appreciate all of this petty squabbling, please just let it be, you don't want the topic do not post. :/

Would you dedicate a page on gamefaqs if the local milkman died?

Mass murderers don't deserve to live. I'm glad they killed him rather than letting him live in some facility while our tax money pays for his meals.
It's like telling the Jews not to celebrate over the death of Hitler. What do you think they will do?
Hitler, Stalin, Bin Laden, Hussein, none of these people deserve to live after taking the lives of so many innocent people for no good reason whatsoever.

Why wasn't this topic made when Oblivion was released. At least there was some chance he might have seen this and would have been happy people appreciate his work.
Funny how people become greater in death then in life. Michael Jackson, Steve Jobs, Whitney Houston recently and now this guy. No disrespect to this Adam guy, in fact if you hadn't brought it up I wouldn't have known but, if you really cared you should have been praising him long before this happened.
And thus I would like to say Todd Howard is a great guy. Makes cool games with toehs and dragons and doesn't afraid of anything
Resident Evil 6 (X360)
SSX (X360)
Dishonored (X360)
Dragon's Dogma (X360)
Starhawk (PS3)
Trials Evolution (X360)
