This is the next location for TES right? not another boring human

>>323029409
Nah, something elsewhere

Skyrim didn't take place in a human nation, though.

Elsweyr would be neat. I want to take down Khajiti Cartel and steal all their moon sugar and skooma.

>>323029518
>Skyrim didn't take place in a human nation, though.

>>323029518

Look Nords are humans as far as out standards go.

>>323029409
Its gonna be Hammerfell or High Rock. Worst part if they set it in Hammerfell the setting would be seen as exotic

>>323029614
Nords are literally referred to in-universe as "Men". This as opposed to "Mer" for the elfshits. Nords and Imperials are about as Human as it gets in high fantasy.

>>323029409
Skyrim again.

I'm betting on the Summerset Isles. The Aldmeri Dominion is almost certainly going to be at war with the Empire again, so we'll probably be some Imperial agent working for the Blades like in Morrowind.

>>323029409
I would love to see the rest of Morrowind at Tes VI. Argonian slave rebellions, Dunmers trying to survive, dominion vs empire struggle etc

>>323029409
that's not hammerfell
they'll never do a game set in a furry province

>not The Elder Scrolls VI: Skyrim II

>>323030029
It'd be like a Fallout game. Morrowind is a wasteland now, after getting royally fucked by the Red Year and Argonian invasion.

Also, Morrowind is a little far removed from the Dominion conflict. There's not enough resources there to warrant the Dominion bothering to encroach, and the Empire doesn't give a fuck either. House Redoran isn't even on the Council anymore because they were to buddy-buddy with the Empire.

You want to see the Khajiit lore destroyed and the various breeds retconed, all for the sake of easier development? No? Then better pray TES6 takes place in another province.

>>323032902

Weren't the lunar phase variants of catpeople already retconned along with their digitigrade legs?

>>323029409
Would be cool.

>>323029409
nope, it's gonna be hammerfell.
Elsweyr'd be cool, but Akaviri would be great. Black Marsh would be nice too, but it's really hard to pull off. It's a massive swamp.

That said, it's bethesda. I expect nothing but disappointment.

I've never played any Elder Scrolls games. Where should I start?

>>323033075
Not that I'm aware of. It was all in Morrowind in-game books and never mentioned again afaik.

And the legs change happened to Argonian as well. Could be either a retcon, although for khajiit it can be explained as a less animalistic breed, or could be just a relatively small change made without really intending to change any established lore for the sake of easier development.

Literally all of these areas are either already included in ESO, or probably will be with future DLC.

I honestly don't think we'll see another single player TES game for a while.

>>323033409
Modded Morrowind if you want a entertaining complex game, with challenge and variety.
Modded Oblivion if you want an easier and less complex version of the above.
Modder Skyrim is you want an easy and shallow game with limited variety, but still entertaining nonetheless. Or if you want porn, this is your best choice.

Essentially, the newer the game is the more streamlined and simplified it becomes. But in any case never play an unmodded version.

It's gonna be Hammerfell because diversity. Fuck I hate niggers

>>323033615

>>323033856

>Modded Oblivion if you want an easier and less complex version of the above.

Hey, say whatever the fuck you want but Oblivion had the best quests in the series even if there were so pathetically few of them.

The shittiest quests in the Shivering isles were better than the best quests in Skyrim. Not to mention the brilliant mansion murder party.

>>323033472
>It was all in Morrowind in-game books and never mentioned again afaik.

If I recall correctly, the khajiit pc in Arena is a different, more humanlike moon variant than any of the khajiit in Morrowind-Oblivion-Skyrim. So it's not just text in Morrowind.

Can't wait to find out which province they'll ruin next.

>>323034754
I don't really feel that they ruined Skyrim. I mean sure, they went against the Lore some, but the lore they added was pretty great. However, after seeing the concept art and what COULD have been in the game, and with the shit show that Fallout 4 is, they have definitely lost any loyalty I may have had.

No, there will be only colour and haircut differences. And 1 voice and intonation for all of them. Like all of them have 1 character type.

Seeing as Skyrim came out in 11 and Fallout 4 came out end of 15, and took 4 years, and wasn't made by all the same people, I'd assume a small team has spent the last few years already working on it, and it will be announced end of this year for release early next year or maybe the year after. I wouldn't think more than two years from now we'd be playing it.

And it'll be Hammerfell or Aldmer place, following the way the stories have seemed to progress

Hammerfell

Oblivion had better quests than majority of all the greatest RPGs ever made, somehow.

both argonians and Khajiit variations are mentioned in Pocket Guide to the Empire and books such as The last Year of the First Era etc. also books related to Khajiit such as Clan Words etc.
Khajiit and Argonian variations are absolutely canon and I know that doesn't say much but even TESO had the decency to include other Khajiit variations (though they initially fucked up by making Senche not Khajiit and just tigers)

Can we try a different continent this time? A Skyrim prequel taking place between Skyrim and the Akaviri nation could be cool

I doubt it because
A) Todd has stated in both his Skyrim and Oblivion interview that they believe that the amount of playable races is "perfect" right now
B) Again this has nothing to do with current ongoing plot, most likely it will be set i Hammerfell because it is fucking shit up with Dominion or in Elsweyr and Valenwood to show us perspective from inside of Dominion
SummerSet will not happen because you would be able to play only as an Altmer or a Bosmer at best and there would be no other NPCs there other than Altmer

No, it'll be Hammerfell. I'd prefer Elsweyr or Summerset Isles, but knowing Bethesda, they'd probably elaborate more on what happened in Hammerfell before Skyrim. You'll probably play as someone who helped repel the Dominion.

so now that even skyrim kids dislike FO4 is Todd suicidal?

>>323041050
Wrong, I have fucking Skyrim concept art and development of Skyrim according to the concept art started wayback in 2007 if not earlier since I might not have all of the Adamowicz concept art.
More importantly Todd himself said that they started as soon as Oblivion got released.
Bethesda just like any other big studio works on multiple projects at the same time and most likely TES VI development started in 2013/2014

So they keep the number of races the same, except they change what those races are. Make Skyrim NPCs almost all Nords, and gave all the player races come from the other continent.

You'll get Mysterious Akavir again.

Don't start with Morrowind unless you like retro games or are not shy to mod it to make it look more modern. Morrowind has a nice level scale but from like level 1 your going to be weaker than everything until you get up a few levels. Start with Oblivion, if you like it and can take the hit on graphics or mod Morrowind might be alright for you. If you like graphics just start with Skyrim and consider Oblivion. Morrowind was my introduction to the series but it's difficult in a way till you start learning about it then it gets really formulaic like leveled enemies you'll encounter every few steps between towns and other landmarks.

I think the next best option would be summerset isles

>>323042325
they probably would've started planning TES VI during FO4 development so with that in mind and assuming they aren't creating a new engine then it should take about 3-4 years, leaning towards 3 as they've already got the ""next-gen"" engine from FO4.

>not wanting Valenwood

>>323041747
They absolutely started on pre-production which includes concept art and outlining the story/setting as soon as Skyrim released. But Bethesda's level designers only focus on one project at a time, as they have confirmed in multiple interviews and talks over the years. If Bethesda sticks to the development pattern they've used for over a decade, then TES VI will go into full production once the F4 expansions are finished, just like F4 went into full production after Skyrim's DLC.

>>323042914
Why do people constantly forget that even during the Empires rule there were not more than a thousand non-Altmer allowed on all of the Isles
With current Dominions eugenics and policy literally no one is allowed on the Isles other than Altmer
Hell even Bosmer that are part of Thalmor organization have trouble getting on the Isles

Unless you want a game where literally everyone is fucking Altmer, SummerSet doest fucking work.

>>323033856
>Modder Skyrim is you want an easy and shallow game with limited variety,
I don't get this meme. Skyrim and Oblivion are more alike than they are different in terms of stars. The far, far more stats and features were removed between Morrowind and Oblivion than between Oblivion and Skyrim.

>>323034360
Oblivion had some cool side quests but the main quest line was excruciatingly boring.

There could be a war. Empire captures the eastern isle. Or it could take place pre-aldmeri dominion but some people may not want to go back in time

Also a thousand seems like a lot for a game like this

>>323043352
Atmora is a frozen barren wasteland

The only reason for wanting Elsweyr is if you are a fucking furfag

I hope they choose summerset isles just to disappoint all the furries

It's not, thousand is in lore number when in lore population of SummerSet Isles probably reaches a million or more considering the fact that it's the single most prosperous and stable region in history of Mundus
Said thousand Imperial politicians or traders were not permanently there either
After eugenics and purge of Thalmor started you can bet your ass that there will be almost no non-Altmer on the Isles, more importantly and the only thing that matters, there will be no non-Altmer in the open, slaves at best and you will have lots of trouble if you do not play as an Altmer.
>There could be a war. Empire captures the eastern isle.
That wouldn't happen unless they make another giant timeskip, even then I have to remind you that Tiber Septim required forces of unified Tamriel and Numidium to invade SummerSet Isles. And if that would happen now you would still have trouble visiting Dominion side of things.
Going back in time is the only option, it wouldn't be too bad and would be somewhat comparable to Morrowind with grand majority being of main race and very few of other races, but as you said yourself people don't like going back in time so again I doubt it.
If you want Dominion regions Valenwood and Elsweyr are a lot more likely especially with how lose the Empire is to them, but again the easiest option would be Hammerfell or HighRock.

>>323043149
You're assuming we're not going to get more info about the time line advancing. The thalmor start to spring up after the oblivion crisis when that floating island showed how fractured the empire was.
That story line practically didn't even get released until years later when they'd been working on Skyrim for a while maybe like a year or two before Skyrim came out.
I'm assuming it's going to take place on summerset but I'm hoping for blackmarsh with Morrowind destroyed the dunmer are either going to try to move into the imperial province, or blackmarsh. The Argonians have been fucking their shit up since Morrowind was wrecked so it's doubtful they'd go against the thalmor and humans in the imperial province instead of trying to push blackmarsh since they have a pretty low opinion of argonians to start with and a rivalry to settle.
Otherwise I'd guess Atmora since it gets so much mention for humans and would have a lot of ruins keeping in pace with daedric/dwemer/ayleid/drago ruins we see in every installment.

Which had the best plot: Skyrim, Dawnguard, or Dragonborn?

I'm partial to Dawnguard myself, because Serena a best.

>>323044563
more like dwemer looking magi-tech spaceships
there is a lore snippet that mentions atherial spaceships in second era
Both the Isles and Reman Empire had them, Summerset Sunbirds and Imperial Moth ships
The only space related thing we have seen in TES was Battlespire which was a spacestation/mage academy on the edge of Mundus and because it was on the edge of Mundus it was easy to create controlled portals to all sorts of Oblivion realms from there

>>323044563
>http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Pocket_Guide_to_the_Empire,_3rd_Edition/Arena_Supermundus
>Visits to Aetherius occur even less frequently than to Oblivion, for the void is a long expanse and only the stars offer portal for aetherial travel, or the judicious use of magic. The expeditions of the Reman Dynasty and the Sun Birds of Alinor are the most famous attempts in our histories, and it is a cosmic irony that both of them were eventually dissolved for the same reason: the untenable expenditures required to reach magic by magicka. Their only legacy is the Royal Imperial Mananauts of the Elder Council and the great Orrery at Firsthold, whose spheres are made up of genuine celestial mineral gathered by travelers during the Merethic Era.

Part of it is wishful thinking, some of it is ignoring the engine limitations and to an extent bethesda does really cool stuff with what they have.
The other part is the lore is fucking nuts mortals rule everything with aedra and daedra fucking around. At this point we might as well argue about CHIM. Personally I think the dragon breaks are not real. Like that book about it predicting the end of the septim line before it happened in the right year the author people say are being sarcastic or ironic but he could of had access to a prophecy from an elder scroll. Muhrune almost tearing the world apart with Oblivion gates and merging the worlds should be so fucking obvious that dragon breaks are not real it's akatosh trying to hold a separation between aetherius and the mortal realm from merging and the aedra/daedra that shape the world getting pulled back into it causing things to change from it happening making time stop existing, like the dwemer were just trying to get through to aetherius when they fucked up with numidium.

>>323045130
I agree. The fight in Sovngarde was far too easy compared to the fight at the Throat of the World.

I was expecting a war against a 5x bigger Alduin, with all of the Nord heroes ganging up to take the beast down. Sovngarde itself was rather underwhelming as well. With Alduin there, I expected a soul-cairn-like wasteland, and that once he was defeated, everything would spring back to life.

As much as I'd love to see an elder scrolls game set in Elsweyr, Valenwood or even Black Marsh, I really doubt Bethesda's ability to make them seem as cool as they're portrayed in the lore.

Also, Hammerfell and High Rock aren't that boring, so long as they don't give them the Cyrodiil treatment.

Why does Alduin only attack a settlement once in the Skyrim? He didn't feel like a threat.

>>323045657perhaps i didn't state this correctly
dragon breaks are not the alteration of time
akatosh keeps the separation of aetherius and the mortal realm giving the perception of time to mortals. when this breaks (dragon break) time does not stop the spirits that shape the world start leaking back into it and do not change time but change the world but since akatosh is not separating it there concept of their time is gone and things are changed by the original spirits that shape things seeping back into the world.

The location really doesn't matter too much to me. All I care about is how the overall game will be, and I think we all know what the answer is.

>>323046468
once akatosh re-establishes his control between the barrier separation of the two worlds time starts to take effect to mortals again, but he can't change that the original spirits got in and warped the world in a way. Thus all this happening to the mortal eye looks like a break in time when things changed because they cannot perceive the change happening as it does until akatosh continues to separate the realms like in his agreement with alesia.

>>323029518
Nords were the first humans you fool.

>>323046878
The activation of numinium is a tool to unbound aetherius except the dwemer are bound to it like lurkahns, it's practically an earth bone so they can't escape but resonates enough to cause a break between the realms.

Now that I spoiled TES with my hypothesis I should probably
apply for a real job somewhere.

>>323045657
>Like that book about it predicting the end of the septim line before it happened
No, you misunderstand something
That book is quite obviously written by a person as if he lives in 4th era
more importantly said book again appears in ESO
>he could of had access to a prophecy from an elder scroll.
Even Moth priests that get distorted visions from the Elder Scrolls get dubious non-concrete visions at best, this guy is casually talking about time in which he lives which is after Septim dynasty ends...more importantly Dragonbreaks being real or not real is basically not up for discussion since fucking Warp in The West is a Dragonbreak that we have experienced.
>uhrune almost tearing the world apart with Oblivion gates and merging the worlds should be so fucking obvious that dragon breaks are not real it's akatosh trying to hold a separation between aetherius and the mortal realm from merging and the aedra/daedra that shape the world getting pulled back into it causing...etc.
I...what? Could you re-post that because it's really hard to understand what you are trying to say there buddy.
I also don't think that you quite understand how Daedric Princes or Aedra work, more importantly how Akatosh works for that matter.

>>323046302
I had some fun with it too, but I had already played Morrowind and was versed in Min-maxing, magic being shit in general for combat purposes and endurance>all. The original anon had never played a TES game, there's no need to make his experience miserable by putting him up against daedric clad marauders while he sports a 40 end pure mage.

>>323047450
He was in the 4th century writing about septims ending in the 6th century, he called it correctly. He didn't need access to an elder scroll directly to find out a prophecy from one he could have some connections, the moth priests are not in control of all the scrolls they can't even count how many they have.

>dragon breaks are not the distortion of time, it's when the original spirits that shape the world start to get back into the world and change it more, mortals can't see it changing and it appears to be a break in time until akatosh puts the seperations of mortal and aedra realms in balance and things have been changed.

>>323047449
Dwemer Tonal Architecture has very little to do with Aetherius, from what little lore there is on Tonal Architecture in Morrowind and in Skyrim's quest, Arniel's Endeavor.
That being said what you said is still incorrect because time in reality is non-linear anyway, perception of mortals is all that matters and if to mortals time gets distorted then there is little distinction between it actually getting distorted or not.
And again there is very little doubt about Dragonbreak re-examined being written in 4th era
>The late 3rd era was a period of remarkable religious ferment and creativity. The upheavals of the reign of Uriel VII were only the outward signs of the historical forces that would eventually lead to the fall of the Septim Dynasty. The so called "Dragon Break" was first proposed at this time, by a wide variety of cults and fringe sects across the Empire, connected only by a common obsession with the events surrounding Tiber Septim's rise to power -- the "founding myth", if you will, of the Septim Dynasty.
It's written fully in past tense and it's written by Fal Dorn who is a scholar, this is obviously meant to be a study of past hypothesis on nature of time and Akatosh, I honestly can't imagine how Dragonbreak re-examined can not be read as something written in future and readable in past.

Dwemer tonal architecture has EVERYTHING TO DO with aetherius where do you think they were trying to escape to? they thought they could get to the realm of the higher spirits that sacrificed their power to create the world. They were trying to cause a rift to reach magnus' realm.

Nigger
He clearly states that Septim Dynasty ended with the third era

>>323048526
Their goal has nothing to do with how they achieve their goal
And they were not trying to create a rift, they were trying to create a fucking Brass God that could do everything they wished for, including unmake Mundus, reshape Mundus or go to Aetherius, hell rehsape Aetherius if they wanted to.
I like interpretation that Tonal Architecture is about Aurbical manipulation on a higher level than that of Aetherius.

>>323049208
Yeah you're right almost right but I think you're over reaching. They were building something to get to a realm where they thought they'd have the power to reshape it. Which is aetherius the realm magnus and the other spirits went to. They were trying to become those aedra because they thought they could reshape it without sacrificing themselves like the originals escaping to those realms did to avoid losing themselves in some ironic twist and getting bound to numidium as a quasi earth bound going full circle. I really hope the next ES settles this.

>>323032902
Basically this.

Cyrodil turned into generic woods. Skyrim was Skyrim, but given that it was all tundra and northern Europe in the lore, there wasn't too much butchering there.

By Elsweyr is full of very foreign and interesting lore and if they were going to do it, they'd have to get back to operating with tribal societies that have a strong sense for ancestry and descent, and that would take effort. We'd lose all the Khajiit breeds and likely a ton of other things that make Khajiit kind of a neat and amusing race. Any lore they've hinted about in the past that you want to see fleshed out would likely be presented in a cameo form that unsatisfactorily wraps everything up like mitichlorians explained the Force.

The last time we had a Elder Scrolls game with a land that felt "weird" and "different" was Morrowind, and since then they've cut a ton of the magic and mysticism. You don't want an Elswyr game if you like the lore about the Khajiit.

It might have been the last time they had a truly demonic foe who felt somewhere on your level and inextricably tied to you.

Oblivion went ahead an made an NPC the true hero of the game, and to make up for it you later get to go on and simply become the mad god himself by kicking his ass in his own material plane. There wasn't a lot to ground the player to the conflict or to real us in, and when your enemies are the daedric lords who should be able to blow your head into pieces with the merest thought, it's pretty pointless to try to immerse yourself. You win because it's programmed that way, and they don't even bother to make those powers feel insurmountable to you. In fact, I think you can run up and bash Mehrunes in the toe if you want. Can't kill him, but you can be retarded at him.

The in Skyrim you had the World Eater, who was one of creatures in that game who's level scaling was a fucking mess. If you got too strong he was less threatening than the local fauna. Plus the town guards, being a naturally higher level than you, could fell dragons easily when they attacked any town, so obviously they were an expensive nuisance more than a world threat. Then the vampires were just regular assholes who couldn't go out during the day. They could transform into winged assholes who couldn't go out during the day. Finally, you had Apocrypha, which was actually really cool, but again you lost your grounding because all the Deus Ex Machina stuff.

Elder Scrolls keeps throwing gods at us and I think the writers need to understand that it really isn't making the stories better. The bad guys need to be dangerous wizards, or liches, or warlocks, or just something that doesn't innately control reality in key ways.

There isn't even a combined 50 years across the first 4 elder scrolls games.

Anything that happens between the games is extremely minor and might be hinted at, or be the backdrop for the game, but ultimately isn't much.

Skyrim is the first to make such large leap, and it fits fine. All the events hinted at seem to come up in game in one way or another.

>>323055379
>implying they need our ideas
They probably already have the changes they want planned and chances are they're terrible in a way we can't foresee.

Hammerfell has been constantly hinted at, not because "muh diversity" but because it will link to either the solution or advancement in the Thalmor War storyline.

To the South you'll have Jungles
To the North you have Betnihk and Bangkorai which have a Breton population
Even further to the North you have Orsimer which will most likely be an expansion.
Central is littered with endless tombs, bandit camps, caravans and nomadic tribes.

Hammerfells coastline is a trading hub so it actually makes sense to play another race then the regional.
Hammerfells coastline is also swarmed by pirates.

Not only that but Hammerfell and the Alik'r deals with alot of crime and necromancers

Also it's no coincidence the final enemy of the game is a Redgaurd who by rights should have been a Nord

>>323056253

Presumably because they're both Bethesda games. Since Bethesda games are basically a genre unto themselves, I guess some people assume anyone who plays TES also plays Fallout. That's probably true for a fair number of people, but I wouldn't call it a rule or anything.

Also, people were (and probably still are) worried that a lot of Skyrim modders would jump ship to Fallout 4, but I don't see that happening.

I'm kind of like you. I tried FO3 and FONV and had fun with them, but I prefer fantasy over sci-fi, especially Fallout's brand of sci-fi with all its retrofuture 1950s shit. I like my sci-fi to be more sleek and modern, like Mass Effect.

>>323059749
Fallout isn't REALLY retrofuture 1950's shit though it's got all sorts of 80's scifi shit.

Anything can become boring if it happens too many times. Remember, Skyrim somehow managed to make fighting an evil black dragon in Valhalla boring.

>>323062085
i didn't mind them. they were good enemies to fight against, had a lot of variety, and were spooky. i hated how goofy all of the dungeon enemies were in oblivion with the cartoony looking giant lizard monster thing and the overlyloud ghosts. it was always badass when the highest level draugrs would bust out of their tombs and start shouting at you.

Less satisfying than a fair number of QTE bosses I've encountered before.

>>323063074
Wouldn't have hurt to make them look different from each other. All Draugr are basically the same base with different armor, and most of them even have the same abilities + maybe some leveled shouts. Fighting them gets really boring after a while because of that. Dragon priests were cool boss fights though.

No, they are not coming back.

>>323063639
I've been playing through skyrim again recently, planning to do the dlc after the main story on this character.

So far I've only encountered two fun/good bosses, both were wizard enemies at the end of Daedra artifact quests.

The quest for dawnbreaker, a wizard that has some kind of super-powered Ice Storm spell that one-shot me if it hit, had to spend the whole fight dodging around them while chipping his health down.

Another was trying to get the Spellbreaker, peryite's shield thing, the boss was totally immune to magic. Since I was playing a character that only had destruction and restoration spells to fight with, the fight took about an hour. I went from level 20 or so one-handed to level 60 one-handed, and leveled up four times over the course of the fight.

Ditto. There's some interesting lore involving their connection with the moons, etc, all their different forms (which by god better be represented as something other than cat men of different heights and voice actors).

Still, I'd like a more exotic setting and for that my vote is Argonia, which they've already tried to develop a game of: Eye of Argonia. They let that go and worked on Morrowind instead, but its a start at fleshing out the most mysterious of Tamriel's regions. If the Argonian Account is remotely accurate, that is a very interesting environment indeed.

Not at all is C0da "canon." Love me some Eyesore of the Elk / Michael Kirkbride lore, but NONE of his work has been "canon" since he left Bethesda. Wish some of it were part of the official lore but it's not and people need to stop pretending that it is.

My dick is so hard when thinking about the Tiber Septim option. It would perfectly fit the play-style of other Bethesda RPGs, where you literally try to side with as many factions as possible and doing all the possible quests. Also, little is known about Tiber Septim himself, so that would still leave all possible room for character creation.

Do you honestly think Bethesda (or any game studio) sits there and goes "well, we already went to ____ for this game 20 years ago, guess we have to try somewhere else"? It's about what feels right, what seems like it'd be a good idea and what would feel fresh after the previous installment. It has nothing to do with your autistic "WELL, THE NEXT MAP WILL BE HERE BECAUSE OF X AND Y". That's exactly why GTA V is set in Los Santos instead of Vice City like everyone expected.

>>323030009

Summerset Isles is a must.

Though in all likelihood you'll be 'THE PROPHESIED GUY/GIRL WHO SHOULD CANONICALLY BE AN ALTMER BUT MIGHT NOT BE' and help overthrow the Aldmeri Dominion.

Though I doubt the Blades will be involved. At least not the Skyrim chapter, since they're too busy jerking off to the corpses of dead dragons and generally being gigantic cunts. More likely you'll be working with some sort of Bosmer resistance, or maybe the Psijic Order will fill in because it's almost certain the Thalmor are up to something more sinister than mere conquest.

>>323074831
Dragonborn confirmed the fact that no one worships the Tribunal anymore

>>323074831
The Tribunal is loathed, as they were seen to have abandoned the dunmer during the Oblivion Crisis and The Red Year. As such, the dunmer went back to the original Anticipations (Azura, Mephalam Boethia(h) ), who are now known as The Reclamations.

At best, the Tribunal are honored as saints. Though the mainstream Temple seems to largely despise the Tribunal.

>>323074831
After the tribunal pretty much crumbled they went back to worshipping Daedra again and the tribunal are now just considered saints.

I have told my priests that I shall withdraw from the world, and that the Temple should be prepared for a change. We may be honored no longer as gods, but as saints and heroes, and the Temple will return to the faith of our forefathers -- the worship of our ancestors and the three good daedra, Azura, Mephala, and Boethiah. The missions and traditions of the Temple must continue... but without its Living Gods

>>323075727
Yeah, except the big part is that the Temple doesn't want to acknowledge them as honored saints, but as false gods that took away from the worship of the Anticipations. Those priests that do wish to hold onto the Tribunal as saints are largely shunned or removed.

And this was due to the combination of The Oblivion Crisis and The Red Year.

>>323076308
>the Temple doesn't want to acknowledge them as honored saints
True, but we knew about this extent in vanilla Skyrim - what with the Grey Quarter, and all. Dragonborn just reinforced the whole "false gods" realization.
