UESP Forums

Hi, I'm fairly new to the forums so I almost expecting for this to get moved or shut down and I know it's still early to talk about this but I think that if we fans want to somehow influence Bethesda in their creation of new games, we might as well start right away.

Anyway here is may idea for the future of the series (with reasons):

This generation of platforms (PS3/XBOX360):

TESVI:(insert name) Alinor???
Set in the Summerset Isles would be my preference. I know Bethesda has wanted to do something here since finishing Daggerfall so why not. I would have to see what Beth does in Skyrim to make more detailed suggestions, but I'd like to see a more vibrant faction system like Morrowind's because this was a major draw of that game. As far as gameplay goes, I think Beth is on the right track although I'm not sure about the way they keep cutting down the skills list.

A remake of TESIII: Morrowind
I think that there is a market for this because many fans of the series were introduced to it by Oblivion. Because Morrowind is not on PS3 etc. many fans haven't experienced it yet or have had to put up with somewhat backwards graphics and what not. Beth could still breathe new life into the game by adding the mainland. Keep the original questlines with some tweeks and add a new questline for each Great House on the mainland to give us even more background on the Dunmer culture. Something like:
Hlaalu - something exploring King Helseth (I know there's Tribunal but I think there's still scope for this)
Indroi - explore the Tribunal Temple a bit more perhaps
Redoran - border wars with the Nords on the Skyrim border
Telvanni - just keep up the crazy Telvanni stuff from the original
Dres - slavery and skirmishes with the Argonians in the south of Morrowind.

Next Generation of consoles (PS4/XBOX720??):

TESVI and TESVIII:
A Black Marsh/Morrowind crossover discussing the region in the 4th Era (a lot seemes to happen in The Infernal City). There was obviously a reason why they let Keyes choose Morrowind specifically rather than another province. I've got two theories on that, either it's a way of writing a return to Morrowind out of the immediate future or a segue into a Black Marsh/Morrowind crossover. Let the player choose who to side with. Show us the decline of the old houses and maybe introduce new ones in their place or a new one to dominate the old ones and lead the Dunmer to victory against the Argonians (House Nerevar?? in honour of Indoril Nerevar and the Nerevarine).

Also a Valenwood/Elsweyr combination. This region hasn't been explored yet and both provinces are pretty small in comparison to the others (almost half size) so they fit well together. Anyway it's just something I might like to see.

Anyway, what do you think?

Moved to multimedia

Thanks, I wasn't sure Multimedia or General.

I really had your same pointof view about morrowind coming again.I am pretty sure they should do a revamp of TES3.. or something about the come back of the Dwemer...

I think it seems like a logical choice, I mean there is a huge fanbase around Morrowind and there is a huge number of fans of the series who haven't been able to have much to do with it so I personally think it would sell really well and be a great Elder Scrolls experience. I would definitely love to learn more about the Dwemer to.

Windows 8?

Yeah the PC thing kinda goes without saying. Imagine, The Elder Scrolls without mods. I think I would die.

They're working on getting mods onto console versions of Skyrim.

I think they should do a game in every province (not including daggerfall) then doing games for each of the other continent of skyrim THEN make an uber-game (possibly MMO) which includes the entire globe. I've always wanted to play a 1st person mmo.

Moved on request.

I think the next one will either be Summerset Isle, or Morrowind/BlacK Marsh, followed by the one not done, and then an Akavir one.

Its hard to say what will be next, maybe we get a little hint in Skyrim.

Personaly I would like Summerset, but Summerset would be a high fantasy setting like morrowind was and it seems that Skyrim has a more solid low/mid fantasy setting like oblivion. So it can be that they would make the next one also a normal fantasy setting which would say NO to summerset.

TES VI: Aldermi Dominion

Valenwood + Summerset

that could be really nice and would have some very different regions, I would like to see the moving cities of Valenwood. As you said before Duruza it could get even bigger which opens the option that there will be 2 provinces in one game. But I doubt that TES VI will come out before 2014-1015, long time to wait and speculate .

I hope they may eventually work their way around to making a game that covers the whole of tamriel, that would be amazing, but probably too huge.

I am hoping for a summerset isles one next, but I really hope they continue to make these for a long time. If I have children who get addicted to TES, I would be the happiest man ever. But either way, it's a franchise that can go on strong for a while.

And just a little side note, considering only dragonborn in TES V can do dragon shouts, in future TES games, they most likely would have to do something epic to match dragon shouts without having to do them wouldn't they? Otherwise it would feel like they are going backwards would it not? Maybe some crazy additions that rival dragon shouts from the Psijic Order?

Sorry about off topic rant, either way I think the futures bright, I just hope the fallout series doesn't produce too long waits for the next TES..

Sorry for the necropost, I hope it's okay, this thread is interesting .

I think that it'd be cool if Beth did a couple of games on the same engine, and let us join them together. So say TES5 6 and 7 use the creation engine, we can play them together, so we get 3 provinces at the same time, but we have to buy all three games, and they are all separate games. Would that work at all?

What would make me happy most is a box set of morrowind, daggerfall and arena, available on steam. Also, I like the idea of making a series in elsewyer. Just imagine, the kahjit/argonian rivialys could make a good story and I want to see a treetop city. Also, I want one set in the middle of an ocean; A collection of isles. Why? Because I think sailing fits in well with the Elder Scrolls franchise.
