But don't all the Elder Scrolls games before Skyrim take place in the Third Era? In fact, Uriel Septim VII has been a living character in the Elder Scrolls series since Arena (until Skyrim of course). All the gaps except for Skyrim have only been one to three decades. Even Morrowind and Oblivion are only 6 years apart. It very well could be a new game.
