What are the odds of the next Skyrim game being set in Elsweyr?

>the next Skyrim game
Is this bait?

Approximately 0% chance.

TES VI is going to be set in High Rock or Cyrodiil again. You can be sure of that.

how can i be sure of that? wasn't hammerfell rumored for a while?

>What makes you so certain?

One of the many perks of not being a furry is we're not delusional.

Elsweyr doesn't have the same mass market appeal as the other locations.
>>
>>333393986
Bethesda being the boring turdnuggets they are will only go for the safest of 'fantasy' settings.
>>
>>333394305
I didn't say I agreed with OP, but lovely use of strawman. I just wanted to know why you felt so certain about those particular locations when there's so much else to choose from.
>>
>>333393601
I say 50/50.

My guess is they will do a providence the opposite of Skyrim. So either Elsweyr or Hammerfell.

It's gonna be Hammerfell or Valenwood or High Rock.

Firstly, Black Marsh fags can gtfo, there's like no infrastructure and a shitton of water and environments hostile to non-Argonians

Elswyer is less severe, but has similar problems. Basically all the food is made with moon sugar shit that can fuck up non-Khajiit.

Like half of Summerset Isles is forbidden to non-Altmer.

Orsimer is IIRC really tribal and I don't recall the orcs being comfortable with non-initiated foreigners.

That leaves Hammerfell, High Rock, and Valenwood as unexplored potential provinces.

>tfw nothing else in the lore could create a similarly magical experience to 'V'vardenfell

>>
>>333395587
Khajiit in general are all kind of sluts. Male and female. So yeah a female khajiit would probably happily fug a human if given a chance.
>>
Next game I feel is very likely to take place in Valenwood. Too bad Bethesda would be too lazy to even put in a couple moving trees.
>>
>>333393960

If "rumor"="baseless fan speculation", then yes.

But realistically, there's no way Bethesda has the balls anymore to set a game in a country populated by dark-skinned people. The SJW shitstorm would be all but guaranteed (unless Hammerfell and the Redguards were portrayed as literally flawless entities of pure goodness, and fuck would that be boring).

It's gonna be High Rock for bland, mass-marketable standard medieval fantasy, and for Skyrim-looking border regions for the "Skyrim 2" crowd.
>>
>>333395145
I agree, but remember what they did to Cyrodiil? There are plenty of good lore reasons to not do the provinces you mentioned. Too bad Bethesda doesn't care about their lore.

That said, they're probably going to do Hammerfell, since Bethesda is too lazy to even attempt elvish or non-human provinces. They're probably just going to rip off the first Assassins Creed now that Redguards are just fantasy Moors.
>>
>>333395145
>Can fuck up non khajit
>Half of summerset isles is forbidden to non-altmer

Reading these I get a grim feeling its going to be set in one of those forcing you to play khajit or altmer depending on which game, and with a voiced protagonist like fallout 4
>>
>>333396678
They won't go that far. They had every reason to force yo to play a nord in Skyrim, but they didn't.
>>
>Valenwood and Elsweyr
>not having some sort of conflict between both nations
>two starter locations and main stories based on where you picked
>war between both nations can be a side quest but more drawn out (lol yeah right)

That'd be pretty cool. It's also the same size as skyrim.

>>
>>333396305
Going back to High Rock would be a new low, but their audience is so underaged that they probably won't care. At the same time, I think they'll want to have a game that is more visually distinct from Skyrim and Oblivion (especially since Cyrodiil was basically High Rock in that game), so they might go to Hammerfell for that reason. I think the calculus will come down to choosing between black people and same-y environments. I'm not sure which they will choose.

I called this years ago, and I still believe it. The next elder scrolls game will be called "The Elder Scrolls VI: Dominion". It will take place in Alinor and/or Valenwood.
>>
>>333397689
I wish, but I don't think modern Bethesda has the balls to do another elven province. They're going to play it safe with either High Rock or Hammerfell, with the latter being more likely because deserts and anti-thalmor.
>>
>>333398286
Of all the fantasy races, elves have always been huge among normalfags. I think an elven province is actually a pretty safe play.
>>
>>333393960
>wasn't hammerfell rumored for a while?

you really think they're going to take a risk with the typical black/desert country?
we all know a single thing is "against" moralfaggotry everyone will scream in all directions and they'll have to change a lot of things that will take time and money

they'll be better off with the generic imperial setting

Unless we're returning to Cyrodill or Skyrim, it's going to be High Rock.

I just don't see any Elven or Beast culture getting the spotlight now that Bethesda is trying to appeal to as many people as possible with as generic fantasy as they can get.

Hammerfell... well, no fucking way they'd risk that when in today's climate we'd see 100 articles published as soon as they make the announcement about "beloved game developer makes game about killing black people in the desert"
>>
>google tes 6
>first link is reddit

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

>"Lots of desert would mean lots of room to establish Fallout-esque settlements. Not that they should skimp on the established towns and cities, though.

>Opportunities to explore Orc culture, possibly as Dothraki/Mongol-esque hordes, roaming the Northeastern portion of the map, travelling by horse and camping in tents against a Gobi Desert-esque backdrop. This could be a major faction, and present opportunities to improve horseback combat, and maybe even the option to lead hordes of horseback troops into battle. The Fallout settlement system could be expanded even further by adding the mobile elements of controlling a nomadic civilization on the move, not just static settlements."

All it needs is some survival elements and crafting and it will completely fill the autist quota.
You can make some CUHRAYZE bullshit with being a sword singer and plowing though Thalmor armies. Add some actual bosses as Thalmor elders and you'd have a game only the most hateful manchild would dislike.
But no, the fans want this shit and Bethesda doesn't care and will pander to them in the most lazy low effort way possible.
>>
>>333400092
>Is Bethesda really that influenced by this?
they're one of the major name of the industry, when they announce something ti's at the biggest video game convention.
they're under the spotlight from the start, it's not a matter of "being influenced", they make generic games to get money, their aim is the largest public, the ones that buy it without playing for a chuck because "it's a trend, everyone say it's good" the same people targeted by other groups making a living by shaming the others.

it's just not in their interest to enter in a possible conflict with them, so they're just going to take the easy way, beside everyone know the normie likes revisiting old locations.

they have absolutely nothing to loose by going back to imperial land and everything to win, it will also be easier to create content for the game, all ideas are already in, just place a joke character that is the adoring fan with one voiced line in the E3 trailer "yeah my ancestor used to follow the champion around, then he took an arrow to the knee"
there, they just cut their marketing budget by several millions just by playing on old content

but hammerfell?
create content, storyline, new memes (yes, memes are viable for marketing) while walking on a landmine because making them too black will trigger some bad image

>War. War never changes.
