If Bethesda makes another Elder Scrolls where would you want it to be?

Personally, I think so much could be done with a game set in both Valedwood and Elswyer.

The giant forests with cities in the trees and the stretching badlands, with oasis dotting the horizon would be a wonderful duality for Bethesda to achieve, not to mention all the quests and opportunities that arise when dealing with country borders.

whilst i think Hammerfell, Valenwood and the Black Marsh would all be very cool, i dont think they would permit much differentiation for gameplay throughout the land. Such as Skyrim has the frozen plains, forests, tundra, moutains, etc. I cant think of how they could ass that much gameplay differentiation in the three provinces I mentioned. But, if i had to choose i would choose Valenwood, because i love the wood elves and i think massive trees of cities would be awesome.

How about opening up all of Nirn? I want to be able to go to Vivec, stilt-stride over to a Corner Club in Balmora, then head off to Elsweyr to help my furry Kajiit friends. Maybe head over to Imperial City to assassinate a high-councilor. Maybe checking out Hammerfell while I'm at it.

I know they're not easy to do, and I'd personally much rather have a Fallout version, but why not just hunker down and make an Elder Scrolls MMO? The kicker could be that - like Skyrim - there is no initial class, instead your character grows in power and experience INTO his/her role. It could totally be their USP.

-It's just not allowed to come out for another 5 years so I've got time to gorge myself on SWTOR

Argonians hate elves? Huh. My last follower in Skyrim was a Dark Elf. My character must have been raised by very open minded Argonians. >_>
I'm speaking very generally, but yeah, as a whole they probably do. The Dunmer in particular have captured and enslaved thousands of Argonians in the past (ever played Morrowind?), and in the years between Oblivion and Skyrim the Argonians of Black Marsh have successfully invaded and took over large areas of Morrowind.

Since Black Marsh shares a border with Morrowind (and the inhabitants of each hate each other), they've been fighting on and off for centuries.
Didn't the argonians have a specific issue with the Khajiit?
I don't think so. In the southern Cyrodill cities there was some enmity between them, but I think that might have just been there, because I haven't really experienced it anywhere else. You'd think they would get along, since they're both enslaved by elves and mistrusted by men, but I don't really know.

In Skyrim Khajiits seem to be the only people that don't insult me as I walk past (I play as an Argonian), so I don't think they're enemies.

Hrmm... Interesting. Everyone keeps telling me I'd look great as a rug. Or refer to me as 'cat' (big suprise.). The argonian lady wouldn't marry me though and acted all 'I dun like you..' and the Argonian Male along the docks of Windhelm wasn't the cheeriest critter either. I... havn't seen any other argonians actually. Or khajiits. Except the traders of course.

Huh...

I'd have to go with either the Black Marsh of elsweyr. Purely because it will be such an alien experience. And I look forward to seeing a really alien experience in TES :)

Yeah, I get pretty much the same thing, except it's "What do you want, lizard?". I think I've had the rug thing said to me as well, but only by bandits. Also that Argonian woman refuses to marry me and I am an Argonian, so I don't think that's to do with race (I don't know what it is to do with though). It's annoying too, because she's the only female Argonian who can be married.

Apart from the one in the Dark Brotherhood I've only seen Argonians as dock-workers and bandits, and I've only seen Khajiits as caravan traders and bandits. I guess they don't like the cold? All I know for sure is that the caravan traders have always been polite to me, unlike everyone else in Skyrim and possibly the universe. I felt more than a little guilty when I got a contract to kill one of them.

I understand that there are no weddable khajits or woodelves(have you seen one? I havn't...) due to the matriarch decides who gets to be a pair in the Khajiit religion. Same sort of thing with the woodelves but.. merf. Maybe they have sexuality preferences as well?

All of tamriel. Also, I would like the ability to team up into an adventuring party online. Because specialising would make for much stronger combatants, which in turn would allow for tougher fights, which in turn would make for more epic battles.

The UESP Wiki says there is no weddable Khajiits or Bosmer, but you can apparently add them to a marriage faction using the console if you have it on the PC (I don't, unfortunately).

It's kind of strange that you can't marry Bosmer though really, since they supposedly value diversity and are well known for intermarrying with other races... unless those are just rumours created by the other elves who look down on them, I guess.

Le sigh, the pain of consoles.
I really need to buy it on the pC as well... Yeah I do that with the Elder Scrolls series >.< Got a 2.33 copy of every TES on average =/

Myself personally would like it to be in Hammerfell, Black Marsh, or Valenwood. Hammerfell because I think an Elder Scrolls game in the desert would be awesome. Black Marsh because Argonians are cool and swamps are awesome. And Valenwood because I think an an entire land of forest would be a real graphical challenge for Bethesda. And tree cities rule.
I would like to see all three of those together in one game. I think it would be too boring to be in just one of those locals for too long, and if all three were together, it could really break it up and be lots of fun.

I'd like it to be set on the moon, simply because I think the moon of a fantasy setting would be a really interesting place to visit; a place I too would be interested to see. Plus it looked really cool all up in the sky of Morrowind.

Black Marsh or Elsweyr. I think the worlds of the 'less human' races would be very fun and different. I'd actually been thinking about this very topic for a few weeks now, it's neat seeing what others have to say.

I'm going to have to agree with other users and say Black Marsh. It sounds like such a cool place and finally I'll be able to feel at home with my own kind, instead of being the only Argonian surrounded by humanoids.
