The already have the tech to handle a game that big, they've had that since Daggerfall, which even though it doesn't take up a lot on a map is by far the largest game in TES history. That's besides the point. What makes the TES games great?

Attention to detail.

If the devs tried to put the same level of detail as they did in Skyrim, Oblivion, and Morrowind, the game would take ages to come out. It takes them 5 years to fully flesh out a province, if they tried to make nine provinces it would take around 45 years for the next TES to come out. I'd rather see them make a game that takes place in both Valenwood and parts of Elsweyr, with part of the story about leading resistance against the Thalmor and the other part of the story about some Bosmer cultural thing. Maybe the 4th Era ends, so another Wild Hunt is on, and the province is in chaos. Their new gimmick instead of shouting could be shapeshifting into different animals, as it actually makes sense from a lore standpoint. im a big fan but i dont know everything there is to know about TES like most ppl on here SEEM to know but i doubt it would take 45 years to do all 9 provinces considering a big chunk of there time is designing each provinces if you count all the places they visited like say just morrowind cyrodil and skyrim they already have those places designed  plus any other locations we have already been to. the only thing they would have to worry about with those locations is just to rewrite the graphics and yes they obviously wouldnt deliver those places exactly the same so they would have to put time into putting age in some of the locations and just making it more current. and they could easily copy the locations of ESO to elimanate the layout process of the entire continent to where all they would have to do is rewrite the graphics of those locations as well. but by the time zenimax wraps up and launches ESO it will be roughly 7 years that they worked on the game but still that definately would help bethesda cut the time in making the game featuring all of tamriel. so it would take them a long time to fully finish the game but not 45 years no way given the facts that each years that we progress in technology we are getting even more so advanced we will be getting faster and ditching out more large scales games even easier than before and you say that it takes bethesda 5 years to ditch out each game in the TES franchise you also have to factor that they were making other games in that period as well like fallout etc.) and off topic but really bethesda is having very little to do with ESO thats basically all zenimax so given that when ESO is released bethesda Will probably keep away from the TES franchise for awhile and let the true TES fans give ESO a whirl for a while.they will be working with other game for awhile so it will definantly be alot longer than five years before they come out with the next TES just like i highly doubt they would feature a TES game any time soon with all nine provinces in it im  just saying if they did it wouldnt take nearly 45 years. but i think the shapeshifting is a great idea.

i aint saying they will but hopefully they will just wrap up all the ties they left untied in skyrim in their next game. from morrowind to oblivion and oblivion to skyrim each game featured completly differant story lines so hopefully they stay away from all skyrim subjected stuff and make another fresh main storyline. and just because they already visited some of the locations doesnt mean they cant go back to them they could ditch out a new province as well as have an old one feature in the game as well. i think  3 full scale provinces is very do able and id like to see either cyrodil and black marsh and morrowind or just morrowind and black marsh its been ten+ years since we have been to morrowind so its very understandable to go back there, or cyrodill valenwood and elsweyr or just valenwood and elsweyr. but if they go to valenwood they will feature elsweyr or vise versa or at least it would make since. and yes i know i didnt paragraph properly or use any proper grammer but O'well sue me.
