Like others have already said, the Snow Elves wont be in the next game. The Falmer wont magically evolve into the Snow Elves within a couple hundred years if they even manage to evolve. Even Knight-Paladin Gelbor says it's highly unlikely that the Falmer will ever be what they once were. You can't just magically play as a Snow Elf when the only other known living Snow Elf is Gelbor, the character would require too much backstory. As for playing as a Falmer, do you honestly think Bethesda would put in a character that is blind, savage, and has a desire to kill anything it comes across by nature?

I think it's pretty safe to assume that the next game will take place in Elsweyr. After all, Tsun, General Tullius, and possibly other NPCs that I can't think of at the moment tell you that "Your fate lies elsewhere". It could be argued that they simply mean somewhere else in Skyrim, but anyone who understands the concept of CHIM could easily see the deeper meaning in the message the NPCs are conveying. I see too many problems in Bethesda marketing a land of furries. Maybe it doesn't matter after the success of Skyrim, but if I were in their marketing department I would absolutely dread having to make a trailer for Anequina. Only way I could see to do it without offending the uninitiated would be to show lots of shots of the amazing desert and jungle and show almost no shots of the populace. How are they going to market a main Khajiit hero like they marketed 'manly man' Nord?
