Oblivion portals are done. There will be something new. Hey genius... Oblivion is in Skyrim. Apocrypha is Mora's realm of oblivion. Also. Maybe the game involves Mora somewhat, and you get knoweldge of shouts, and Mora will teach you them.

Also. Don't act like you know every thing that Bethesda will do. Uhm, Daedra aren't limited to single games. Why the hell would Hermeus Mora teach you shouts? and Oblivion Gates, the Oblivion gimmick, weren't in Skyrim. We don't need shouts for a good game, look at Morrowind.

Bethesda hasn't recycled a gimmick yet so why would you assume they would this time? The Black Books were gates to oblivion, And odds are this new elder scrolls will be hundreds of years after Skyrim, and, Mora likes having powerful champions, He would teach his Champion things he learned from the last dragonborn.

Also, They did ever since daggerfall and morrowind, The prisoner scene, M'aiq the liar, and many more Yes but they weren't "Oblivion Gates", also that was DLC. It will probably be long after Skyrim, but I hope it will involve the war between the Empire and the Thalmor.

Yeah you'll have the Daedra quests again, but 1. Unless you are Draginborn you can't just learn shouts, and 2. Bethesda isn't some empty pit where creativity goes to die, they don't need to make up some excuse so they can recycle their old ideas, they will have a new gimmick, and it will be great, we don't need shouts, shouts were fun and all, but they are done, they belong in Skyrim.

Those aren't the same as shouts, they are just things that are in Elder Scrolls games. Sweetrolls, M'aiq, and being locked in prison aren't central game mechanics.

Again Shouts are from Skyrim, they belong to the Dragonborn, in the next game Bethesda will come up with something new and it will be great. Did you know there was a time before shouts? Yeah, and the games were still great. Shouts don't belong to TLD. Did you not notice that if Paarthunax survived he goes on to teach the Way of the voice to the other dragons

Also, did you not know that Solstheim was recycled from Morrowind?

Black books are gates to Oblivion,

Shouts will probably return, in a way, They never killed off Oblivion gates, just decreased them,

TES Isn't going back in time, Online did that because they didn't want to interfere with the Prophecies.

Being a prisoner was a major point in each game (save daggerfall)

Saying that they don't recycle gimmicks, Vampires, Werewolves. OK so you 10/10 do not understand what I am saying, somehow.

He taught "The Way of the Voice" the same thing that the Greybeards teach, a peaceful interpretation of the voice, dragons already can use shouts, they are dragons. The next character won't be a dragon/dragonborn, just like they won't be a reincarnation of   reincarnation of  Indoril Nerevar.

Did you not play Oblivion? When I say "OBLIVION GATES" I mean these gates http://elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/Oblivion_Gate the ones from the game Oblivion that were central to the game, they randomly appeared throughout the map and were used to attempt to invade Tamriel by a certain Daedric Lord, and led to a certain plain of Oblivion.

The Black books take you to a plain of Oblivion, but they are not the "OBLIVION GATES" from the game Oblivion.

OK, never said anything about going back in timee.

It isn't really, for example you can get mods where your start is randomized, it doesn't interfere with the story, the fact that you are a prisonner does not hold any baring on the story, and the world revolving around your character.

When I say "gimmick" I mean the game specific gimmicks, the thing that makes this different from the other games, Oblivion had its gates, Skyrim had its shouts. These both had major baring on the plot, the invasion and the Dragonborn. Being a vampire/werewolf does not effect the main story, and is just a cool thing you can do.
