Hi!

We have practically visited most of the provinces in Tamriel now, so hopefully we will see one of the following aspects in the game:

a) Valenwood

b) Elsewyr

c) Both of the above

d) All of Tamriel - This would be a huge effort, sure. However, I would not be opposed at all to something akin a five, or six disc installation of the game for around $80 - $100. It would be expensive, sure, but bloody worth it. I obviously vote for option D. Just picture it:

You begin the game by creating your character race, and appearance. Whichever race you choose dictates the province you begin in. From there, a series of events leads you around Tamriel culminating in you gaining a legend and power far beyond your almost mythical predecessors in the Dragonborn, and the hero of morrowind etc. It would be excellent if like the latter, you decided that Tamriel no longer had anything to offer for you, and with the Aldmeri Dominion abolished, the rebellions quelled across the land and peace attained - you start to end the game with the journey across the perilous sea to Akavir (I think it might be good to have a few important companions here that are gained during the epic adventure of the game up to this point - the option would be good at least. You should be able to decide whether your character leads an army or is a loner).

The game culminates as you step ashore and view the vast, giant jungle before you; A terrible screech is heard and out from the darkness something comes forth...

"Continued in Elder Scrolls VII."

Now, I don't really have a solid idea for the plots that would be contained throughout the game, but the above is such a solid foundation for potentially the most epic game of all time. It would involve practically all the guilds up to this point: Warriors, Mage, Thieves, Dark Brotherhood, and so on. They could begin localised to their provinces, eventually grouping and growing in power. I'm not 100% sure I like this, though, and if anything it could be a good idea to unite the forces of all of the above in order to take on Akavir.

The actual purpose for going to Akavir could be in a "defeat them, before they come to us" mentality.

Thoughts? I know it won't be until at least 2016 Elder Scrolls VI would either begin creation or actually be released, but that gives us a hell of a lot of time to plan, right? ;D
