So the next Elder Scrolls is definitely in Hammerfell, right?

It's the perfect place to cash in on the "muh diversity" trend that's going on in the industry right now. High Rock and Valenwood are too small, and Black Marsh and Elswyr are too weird for nu-Bethesda to write. Hammerfell is the only unexplored province that makes sense.
>>
We've already had a game set in Hammerfell, though
>>
>>384558192
A good game, I mean
>>
>>384558430
Daggerfall was a bugfest but it was not a bad game.
>>
>and Black Marsh and Elswyr are too weird for nu-Bethesda to write

There's a sadness inside me that suspects this too. The skyrim crowd would leave almost as sudden as they came tho
>>
>>384558056
Valenwood isn't too small. It's bigger than Vvardenfell, but it's an elven province, putting it in the "weird" category along with Black Marsh, Elsweyr, and Summerset Isles. What I'd really like is a game taking place in Valenwood or Summerset Isles, just because I want a return to the alien environments and worldbuilding of Morrowind.
>>
>>384559845
Every one of the provices are meant to be weird anyways.
>>
>>384559503
It sucks, since it would be an excuse to have different playable races of Khajiit and Argonian. Maybe you could play as the lion-like Khajiit as a warrior, or choose between regular feet and beast feet Argonian, giving the latter strong stats in return for not wearing boots.
>>
>>384558056
>too small
ur retarded
All provinces in game are compressed as fuck
Lorewise they are as big as countries
They would just slightly alter the scale
>>
What's mainland morrowind like at this point? Did it get fucked by the red mountain eruption too?
>>
>>384562131
Half of it is overrun by Argonians. The rest is sort of fine. House Hlaalu got removed from the council and replaced by another one.
>>
>>384558056
That province has been in more Elder Scrolls then any other.
>Elder Scrolls 1
>Elder Scrolls 2
>Redguard
>Dragonstar

It also wasn't with Post Daggerfall Lore.
It just had generic DnD/LoTR lore
>>
>>384558056
High Rock or Hammerfell would make the most plot sense with their proximity to the adamantine tower, they would also be easier to get right than the weird provinces, since everyone would expect too much from those.

TESO has to fucking die out so they make the next game already.

TESO is trying to redpill casuals on the deep lore

Valenwood looks small, but what if they build houses upwards? and there are fucking massive Dwarven caves underneath?

fucking keebler elf manlets and lotsa trees with the traditional Bethesda Bugs and bad story & characters that will be worshipped as greatness by the casual audience
>>
>>384564979
It's still online shit and not a real TES
>>
If it's not in mainland Morrowind and the border of Blackmarsh, dealing with the current war between the Dunmer and Argonians, I wouldn't give a fuck. Everywhere else is boring.
>>
>>384565548
That would be cool for giving some more verticality to the gameplay. Bethesda's been stepping away from traditional RPGs anyway, so going full Far Cry and giving more interactive environments would be cool.
>>
>>384565548
there were no dwemer in valenwood.
but the tree cities in lore are up to 5 miles tall

Desert zones in games are always some of my favorite so I wouldn't mind it being set in Hammerfall. It seems to make the most sense for a variety of reasons.

1. Sword-singing as a replacement mechanic for Shouts. It's incredibly unlikely that future games won't have some analogous power you can run around getting more abilities for given how successful Shouts were in Skyrim.
2. Hammerfall is one of the only provinces to resist the Aldmeri Dominion, this fact is referenced several times in Skyrim and given that resolution of thw conflict with the Thalmor is likely to be the main plot point of the next game it makes sense to set it there.
3. It's very different a setting than Oblivion, Morrowind, and Skyrim but not so fantastical as to run into problems giving a faithful representation. Valenwood as a massive forest full of giant moving magic trees is a lot trickier than just fantasy arabia.
4. The other alternatives don't make much sense at the moment. Black Marsh and Elsweyr are highly unlikely to happen first, Somerset isles is probably the second most likely but will almost certainly be saved for the next game after Hammerfell to tie up the Aldmeri storyline. Valenwood is not possible in their current frankenstein gamebryo engine

>>384567062
iirc the reason tes 6 isn't out yet is because "the technology isn't there" for what they want to do, meaning an engine update for valenwood is very possible
>>
>>384566970
I just want a game set in that expedition to akavir in which an emperor died
Given that we already know how it'd end, bethesde wouldn't even need to make it an RPG

People like you are the ones who kill franchises, you're the CEOs of big name developers who let charts and numbers tell your employees what to do.
You are the kind of people that work for EA.


There are a PLETHORA of games these days that fit your "doesn't sell well" catagory.
By your logic, Bethesda should have died off years ago.

The next game is obviously Skyrim 2 guys come on
>>

Todd, the only way I'd ever forgive you for this is if you let me suck and fuck hot human dicks as an argonian girl without the need for mods.
>>
>>384568014
I unironically would like a skyrim 2 in an alternative universe where the stormcloaks won.
The country is now infested with Thalmor, because without the empire breathing down their necks, there's no one to stop them.

Numerous towns and cities have been lost to the dominion, control over the country is failing, Ulfric's sleeper status was activated years ago, resulting in chaos and his quick execution at the hands of his own people.
>>
>>384568503
>believing that propaganda

They couldn't do a game where the Stormcloaks won because it would be a utopia with no conflict
>>
>>384568680
>No conflict
>Snowniggers

They fucking brawl over who drank the last bottle of milk
>>
>>384558056
Redguards are more Arabic than African

>>384566493
I thought the Dunmer got their asses sacked for a little bit without the Argonians claiming much land.
>>
>>384569263
That's where you're wrong. They'd fight over the last mug of ale. But a milkdrinker like you wouldn't know that.
>>
>>384569456
Like that's any different, snownigger
>>
>>384568503
>alternate universe
nah

Just make it a legit action spinoff. You create your character or import it from Skyrim, and then you just go all out massacreing hordes of dominion troops as if it were a musou game

Then the end has your DB fuck off to whatever other continent
>>
>>384558430
The fact there has BEEN a game in that province and not all the others invalidates it though (besides Arena).
>>
The massive foreshadowing in Skyrim should have made it obvious. The next game will take place in the Summerset Isles, and the plot will be trying to stop the Thalmor from unmaking reality
>>
>>384558056
There's no diversity if everyone's black tho
>>
>>384566736

So basically when Todd gets a hold of it, Valenwood will be a sparsely populated forest with cities less than 20m tall?

Elder scrolls only started at redguard, thats where 99% of the lore is from, daggerfall really doesn't count, its procedurally generated and doesn't have the same detail as elder scrolls 3 onwards.

>>384558056
Curved swords.
>>
>>384558056
Who cares, it won't be out in at least 6 years, Bethesda is not even developing it, they're too busy rehashing skyrim and fallout into atari.
>>
>>384558056
Kinda bullshit though. Was looking forward to black marsh. Was hoping to play human and have a bunch of lizard be racists.

At this point, i do not give a shit so long as it isnt a skyrim variant/ reboot
>>
>>384567436
>meaning an engine update
Top fucking lel, you know that isn't going to happen. They're going to be using the same shit they've been using for ages while continuing to tweak it just enough so the games can be made playable with community fixes.
