.. subscription? My wallet has more dust in it than money. I dunno.

Maybe if Zenimax shows more of what we're getting into, then it might be worth it. As of this far, the only areas that have been shown in gameplay are some minor areas in Morrowind and Skyrim. The rest of Tamriel is a mystery; I already know what Skyrim and Morrowind look like. Why not show some places in gameplay elsewhere, like Elsweyr?
