Black Marsh all the way. The Argonians NEVER get any love. Plus it would be an intense terrain to try and survive in.

Argonians get the most love, exactly because every person that loves Argonians think they don't.

Argonians are the most popular race amongst TES fans.

I want to visit the black marsh, home of argonians, magical trees and deadly predators. I hope Bethesda can do it justice visually and lore wise.

That's lore friendly, because Black Marsh is already mentioned in Morrowind. I've also explore a little of Elsweyr in Illiana's http://www.tessearch.com/mods/23439/Elsweyr-Deserts-of-Anequina mod in Oblivion, so why not have both Black Marsh and Elsweyr in the next TES game.

I voted Elsweyr because I love the Kahjiits and their homeland.


But why not play in a different continent? Not Tamri?l but Akavir!

Most of these polls to date have been between Summerset Isle and Black Marsh. This time it its more between Black Marsh vs Elsweyr.

If they did make a game featured in Elsweyr then I'd prefer the dev's to wait until they have the techno' to make it a combined map of Elsweyr and Valenwood. A massive world of Rainforest / jungle leading into Jungle & finally sandy desert.

I'd personally would rather see Summerset Isle or Black Marsh first.

Definitely Summerset Isle. I always wondered just what craziness was going on
there during Oblivion when NPCs would randomly say Daedra worship was getting popular there.
It would be especially interesting if the main character is there to ultimately help the Altmer somehow. Mainly because their attitudes
and beliefs make it too easy to fall into a "High Elves are jerks!" story. It would be interesting to force players into an alien
culture. Also, tell me it wouldn't be hilarious for the champion of the Altmer to potentially be a Khajiit.

Maybe they become overrun or overpowered by Daedra? I seem to remember something about their mages gaining power
or something too. They might open a rift to another realm. So many possibilities. No matter where it is, I would like it to be a fresh
setting with some weirdness thrown in, unique.

Elsewry !!! :flamethrower: especially with all the kahjiits talking about their homeland really makes me want to see the cities in sand and the tropical forest for myself . Just seems like a place for great contrast in atmosphere

Black Marsh.

The lorebooks that talk about the misadventures of the Imperials to set up plantations there just filled me with an overwhelming desire to go there. Nagas, insect swarms, quick-travel by strange organic tubes? Sounds like a hideous place to live, and by that, I mean wonderful place to tramp around in the muck!

Black Marsh

I envision parts of it to look like the http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bx0q5d_lJWA&feature=related from "The Neverending Story".

Valenwood/Elsweyr. Both zones combined is the size of Skyrim.

Technically, though, if we're doing some sort of "war between the Thalmor and the Empire" for the next game, it could be a multi-region map showing Summerset Isles in the Southwest and Imperial City in the Northeast, with Elsweyr and Valenwood as the buffer states they fight their way through to get to the other.

However, I suspect that either the Thalmor will be gone or have pretty much completely taken over by the timeskip that occurs between Skyrim and TES VI.

I picked Valenwood but I would want it to be combined with Elsweyr in the next game. Go to both provinces and would add more to the story since I heard they have a bitter rivalry between each other (the Wood Elfs and the Khajiits). I also want to see exotic creatures in the forests and jungles and travel through the desert. It also needs to be on next gen consoles so the game can be huge though it would be a very long wait.

Also hasn't Hammerfell and High Rock been in older TES games? I haven't played any of the old ones so but I'm sure they both been visited before.

Elsweyr it would be a great setting. Or maybe even a different continent altogether

I would primarily hope for Valenwood, but would be fine with a Hammerfell game.

If they did Black Marsh I would be really worried unless they included mainland Morrowind.

Elseweyr, absolutely. The mythology and culture possibilities are endless. Desert wanderers? Oh yes, I think so. Theives guild based in a submerged old temple or something in the desert? Please do. I'm thinking Dune plus jungles where water is harvested as a precious commodity.

Also we should be able to ride giant tamed saber cats instead of just horses. Just saying.

I would like TES6 to NOT be another single province, full province game. Tamriel is supposed to be huge, and it feels huge when playing Daggerfall, for example. The map is generic but enormous and the setting is not even an entire province.

I think that the size of the game worlds in Morrowind, Oblivion and Skyrim are good, but why does it have to be ALL of Cyrodiil and ALL of Skyrim? Just call it a fraction of the provinces instead. Contrary to Daggerfall, when I play Oblivion I feel that Tamriel is tiny, since it is possible to jog from on side of the imperial province to the other during a coffee break...

A well made Hammerfell would be awesome. Michael Mack must come back and make the voice of some important Redguard.

All of Tamriel was visited in Arena, so might as well throw that logic out the window. I've been becoming a little more inclined to Elsewyr, though as always Hammerfell would be my first choice.

I'd really love to play in Hammerfell, but to be honest Bethesda could just throw darts at a map of Tamriel to decide where the next installment takes place and I would have no problem with it at all. They know how to craft some amazing environments.

I would love to see the Black Marsh in all its swampy splendor. I want it to be perfect though, I'm not so sure the next generation of hardware is able yet to put such a swarming detailed world in motion.

Nirn (as long as there isn't available all of Nirn in one game I'll be unsatisfied)

But that is unbelievable, so I think the best would be combination of Black Marsh and Morrowind
(and for those ignorant enough to claim that all TES games have only one province- newsflash- TES:Arena had all Tamriel, TES2 had Hammerfell and High Rock, TES3 had only half of province, TES4 was the only one that had one whole province (and sooo underscaled))
Really guys getting in between Dunmer and Argonians (and preferably totally killing both sides in Morrowind liberation process :evil: ) would be great
