I didn't mean that being set off of Tamriel would not be possible. For a DLC that works great. You spent 200+ Hours in Tamriel, now you have a new place to explore. Making it the setting of the entire game, no that doesn't work.

The major problem as stated was that every staple and identifiying feature of the serise would be lost. Essenctially making this, as I already said, a spin off. The only thing that would even make you realise this was a game about The Elder Scrolls is the playable races. However, as these are all Tamrielic races, and everyone in Akavir hate everyone and everything from Tamriel, it's not likely you will just "get along".

I'm not saying it should be avoided all together however. A DLC would be much smaller than a full game and would allow for a much less substantial reason for being there. It would also make a almost entirely hostile enviorment reasonably as well. I have no issue with going to Akivir if there if they can write a good reason for being there. Being there just for the sake of going there is not acceptable in my opinion.

So basicly;

The Elder Scrolls V: Akivir [Ok]

The Elder Scrolls VI: Akivir [No]
