Poll: Where would you rather have had the fifth Elder Scrolls game taken place?
- Thread starter New Frontiersman
- Start date
Somerset isle is where I want this one to be set, I honestly think that skyrim is just to similar to cyradil to jump to it right after. For 6 I think akavir would be awsome but I doubt theyl do it, instead I hope akavir invades tameriel in at some point so that they are a playable race in 6. In fact im calling it now that somewhere in skyrim you will find one kinda like the dwarf in morrowind. It also seems like the perfect time for akavir to invade since the empire is so splintered.
As am I. Being from Northern English descent, these are my people and WE got the fucking dragons!SirBryghtside said:
That said, I hope they do include the ability to become a werewolf. It would fit with my character very much.
Liberty City. That's not a joke either. I think it would be awesome to see some kind of midevil badass walking around Liberty City smashing people's heads in with a mace and stealing cars. Or maybe New Vegas would be interesting, though I doubt he'd last too long against energy weapons.
Ikea. Massive landscape, you get a map when you start, there's stuff that may or may not be food and free coffee refills (fuck, yeah). Also, the game would have a built-in crafting system. Ha!
Yeah, I have nothing to contribute, but just wanted to say that. Skyrim is fine. I like snow, ice and dragons.

Yes! I'm descended from an ancient lord in Yorkshire, and then before that, a Scottish lord.Wuggy said:
FOR THE NORTH!
I'm voting for Pyandonia, Thras or Akavir..
One of my big problems with the TES system is that it's fundamentally an exploration game, most of the real fun is derived not from completing the asinine stories or build-by-the-numbers quests, but going off the beaten track and finding interesting stuff. Setting the game in Akavir could make that a core part of the game, instead of senseless dicking around to find another village populated by the same three voice actors.
Think about it, you're part of an expedition to a mysterious continent, the only other Tamrielic people are going to be the expedition you came with and other treasure hunters who show up in search of glory. They might build a little frontier town a la Jamestown, but for the most part it should just be a you, a big wilderness, potentially hostile natives who you'll have to work to befriend and a relatively small (in Elder Scrolls terms) cast of persistent NPCs.
Of course, ultimately you would have to uncover something big, but it would be nice if even that were incorporated into the exploration dynamic, rather than simply having a big flashing spot saying 'go here'.

I have a disturbing image of the Imperial legions getting their heads kicked in by angry scalls and neds now. :Sbinnsyboy said:
You can forget about fast travel, though.SwimmingRock said:
Im not huge on the elder scrolls series, my first experience with it was Morrowind which was awesome and Oblivion just wasnt as good IMO but it was still ok. I never played the first two so I knew next to nothing about Skyrim and by extension was fine with Skyrim being the next setting
However, I have an interest in the Argonian race so I would like to see Black marsh next. They just seem like an interesting race and I want to see what their culture, architecture, and faiths/philosophies are like in their homeland

I always wanted Skyrim.
But, y'know, Elsweyr. If only because of how awesome the name is.
Seriously. Elsweyr. So silly.

Actually Skyrim was something I wanted. Probably because I tend to always play Nord, though the way the characters look in the teaser pictures may force me to play something else. The Khajiit and Argonians look amazering. Though my first play-through will no doubt, be a Nord.
Though really, I wouldn't mind if they made a game for every major area ever mentioned. I'd most likely buy them and play them all. o_o;;;

Im fine with skyrim but they could Re release cyrodill and then release the other provinces as seperate "super expansions". It would take a while but i would certainly buy it.
