Part of it has to be in Cyrodiil. They can't leave that MASSIVE cliffhanger, and then tell you to go off to Summerset Isle. So, Cyrodiil + One of the neighbouring provinces.

What cliffhanger lol?

Martin is dead! Uriel is dead! Who will lead Cyrodiil and Tamriel? Find out on the next episode of The Elder Scrolls!

You think they will go on from right there?

Rumor has it that TESV takes place a few decades after the Oblivion crysis.

Considering that each Elder Scrolls covers a smaller geographic area than the last (oh but supposedly more detailed), I am expecting that one version of the Elder Scroll series is going to be reduced to a broom closet. It will be critically hailed as the best broom closet ever seen in a game though.

In regards to Elder Scrolls, anyone know what can be rendered that was smaller than the geographic area seen in Fallout 3, that would be interesting enough?

Oblivion was bigger than Morrowind.

16 square miles, to Morrowind's 10.

But Elder Scrolls 2 had over 62 000 square miles. Oblivion and Morrowind are tiny minigames compared to ES1 and ES2.

Both Arena and Daggerfall were completely randomised, while Morrowind and Oblivion were manually designed.

I would go with Summerset Isle, so they don't have that invisible wall they had in Oblivion. Still, Morrowind didn't not include the entire Morrowind region. That would have been massive.

I THOUGHT IT WAS ANNOUNCED!

If it was, the thread title would have looked more like one of your thread titles.

True that announcement is one for the CAPS, FULL CAPS IN FACT, not a few CAPS. Like

"OMG ELDER SCROLLS V ANNOUNCED!!!!!"

but the OP doesn't seem like a CAPS thread person.


I nominate Darth to do the official announcement thread, he will effectively portray my feelings on the announcement.



No one in the world ever gets what they want, and that is beautiful.
