So, elder scrolls VI may take place in… Argonia, Elsweyr, Valenwood, or Summerset isles?

>>342 anybody have an answer to this question
why have we only seen one continent of nirn? Iv'e never even heard about akavir or anything
why is it never mention within in game lore

>>3059 Akavir is intentionally left vague and mysterious.
Atmora is frozen to the point no life can thrive there.
The Redguards destroyed the whole continent of Yokuda in war. All that's left is a few isles.
Aldmeris is just a metaphor for the Dawn Era.
Lyg is just fucked up.

If anything, it was probably for DLC, then Skyrim DLC, then for the MMO.

What if Landfall

>>650 I agree with this. There's a lot to do with the Dominion in the southern areas, and the contrasting dense woods against the harsh sands would be great for gameplay.
Also, imagine exploring entire cities buried deep in the desert, Fuck Yeah

>>1294 I say it's Hammerfell with the Dominion using an army of Undead, due to Hammerfell's plotline and a small hint by a farmer. (Whats next, a blight and undead razing the land? or something).
This could give way for Mannimarco to rise once more, but this is loose guess work

Personally I'd love it if the game was set in hammerfell, fuck some of my best TES moments came from daggerfall and i'd love to come back to that. I want the forests to feel like the redwood forest in California with towering pines that obscure your view and I want the deserts to be vast and imposing. I can't wait to see how alive the redguard culture is and to see how the tension of the thalmor is covered.

Hammerfell is the most logical choice in the story, I feel. I hope they'll make good use of better engines and less limitations console and memory-wise, 64-bit, etc to make a huge central desert and make the cities actually massive, to show the difference of huge expanses of near-nothing with big living cities. Large caravans, small hidden towns in oasis, a expansive coastline full of secrets, but surely Hammerfell wouldn't be complete without at least some Pirating?

>>1207 I expect 'abilities' to replace shouts. Attached to the skills you level up, abilities can be purchased like perks with skill points. For instance, a sneaky archer character can buy an ability to drop smoke bombs or something that stun enemies.

>>6365 I agree for the most part. Every game in the series has it's own flaws and positives. Morrowind itself is just as incompetently designed in many aspects as the newer releases, fetchers just like to blind themselves with cries of

My bet's on Hammerfell. I'm not exactly pleased with that, but it seems the most likely of the bunch.
I like Hammerfell and all, it's a cool place, I'm just sick and tired of human provinces. I want somewhere strange and alien again, Sunset Isles or Black Marsh, somewhere more interesting.

I know its a fat chance but i'd love for melee combat in TESVI to have the same weight and impact that weapons in dark souls have. I have never played a game with more satisfying melee combat other than Dark messiah.
checklist of shit they should put in TESVI
>stamina that drains from all attack types and running around
>non-replenishing magicka
>parry system with the shield ie block an attack just as it happens then get an attack in for MASSIVE DAMAGE
>a casting button instead of the dual wielding magic shit
>limited duration magic buffs for weapons ie a short enchant fire to a weapon but drains duration faster
>bring back duration
>expand the job system to do stuff other than gather plants and chop wood
>add spears
>add halberds
>add darts,throwing stars, throwing knifes etc.
>add first person animations and the ability to see your body when you look down ie enhanced first person mod but less buggy
>bring back the classic leveling system please
things to avoid
>removing anything other than bugs

Yeah, but… then Bethesda would have to be original. Not to mention it'd be really hard and expensive to create all those assets and models and animations and clothing morphs for the different varieties of beast-folk who live in those areas.

how about greatly reduced recovery of stamina?
Maybe reduce the speed of which magicka recovers to be more at pace with oblivion?
Fuck the more I think about it the more I like oblivions mechanics.

I'd prefer a system that slows down the regeneration during combat, but speeds up when the enemies are taken care of. But that's just me, I'm a filthy casual fetcher.

So, taking into account recent events, what are the chances that TESVI is a heightmap and a construction kit? They could even call it Convention or Amanarth.

Ya´ll niggas missing the point. The next TES will be of a soul shriven in Coldharbour, that gets the oportunity to be a rat inbetween the cruel daedric taskmasters, and the goal is to scape oblivion, and getting to ally with one of the major alliances of old times in a… oh wait.

Skyrim was far less generic than Oblivion (though still more than I'd like). The devs said they'd learned after oblivion that it was a mistake to make everything TOO mainstream as it took more of a competitive edge away from the series than it added in terms of accessibility, I think you'll probably see more or less skyrim levels of unique in VI. Maybe a little more.

Video games cities aren't small purely for technical limitations, they also get sort of dull after a while and you don't want players to have to spend minutes travelling between people every single time they want to do something.

It's been forever since I read the relevant interview but IIRC they weren't too psyched about having to tone it down. Oblivion shows what they thought the plebs wanted, GENERIC BULLSHIT GENERIC BULLSHIT GENERIC BULLSHIT. It's so over the top boring it's almost like they're deliberately trying to insult new players.
