Defintely Daggerfall Convenant, even though I would rather play with the Nords and Argonians. However I refuse to join a faction that includes the evil Almsivi and the slave familys of House Dres.

By the way 24.212.73.236, the ESO is set roughly 950 years before the events of skyrim. Skyrim happens in the 4th era, The fourth era ends with no Emperor on the throne, the 3rd ends with Septim uniting Tamriel. The ESO is set in the second era rougly 578.

And the Thalmor do exist at the time, however in what capacity I am not sure. They unified the first Aldmeri dominion in 2nd era 830. They are retconning this though by moving the Aldmeri Dominion back almost 300 years.
