TES6 is almost certainly going to be in Valenwood.

I'm not saying that because I like Valenwood or wood elves (and I don't, but I can see why other people would), and the idea of a game in Valenwood doesn't really excite me. It's just the least risky option for Bethesda.

Elsewyr would be awesome but Khajiits look nothing like humans, so it might feel too alien. Black Marsh would also be pretty cool but it has the same problems as Elsewyr, along with the fact that there are not many non-Argonians living there. The Summerset Isles are home of the Thalmor, which might not go well with some people. High Rock and Hammerfell already got kind of done in Daggerfall (plus if TES6 was in Hammerfell that would be the second time in a row that the mage class will get screwed over). Cyrodiil, Skyrim and Morrowind are obviously out of the question.

That leaves Valenwood. There's been hints in Skyrim that the wood elves aren't doing so great and Eragon fans will probably love it.
