After Bethesda officially confirmed the remaster of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, one dedicated fan went viral by fulfilling an unusual Reddit promise—eating a printed photo of Todd Howard. The user, known as HaloEnjoyer1987, had boldly declared that if rumors of the remaster were true, he’d consume the image of the Bethesda executive.

When the announcement dropped on April 21, the fan made good on his word. Unlike another Redditor who deleted their profile to escape their own bet, HaloEnjoyer1987 uploaded a 10-minute video documenting the bizarre meal. Armed with a fork and knife, he carefully devoured an A4-sized image of Howard—a decision he later admitted to regretting due to stomach discomfort.

Despite the absurdity, the Elder Scrolls community embraced him with admiration. Many hailed him as a "legend" and "a man of his word," praising the commitment and humor behind his act. The moment has since become a humorous yet touching symbol of the long-standing passion surrounding Oblivion’s return.
