I agree that the Civil War won't have much of an impact on the next game. It may even be described as another Dragon Break. There will be some mentions of the outcomes of the questlines but nothing that would suggest any particular outcome like the Stormcloaks winning or the Dawnguard defeating the vampires. I am interested to see how a Mages Guild would even be possible unless they do a crippled Mages Guild that needs rebuilding like the Dark Brotherhood in Skyrim. It'd be nice to see a more organized Dark Brotherhood again like in Oblivion, or maybe even a new assassin's guild, just like how we had the Companions instead of the Fighter's Guild. It's also entirely possible that Bethesda decides the next game won't take place after Skyrim at all, instead they could do something in the past similar to how ESO is set. Maybe even something that takes place in the First Era. Perhaps even the Akaviri invasion? Just a thought
