in fact, vvardenfell in morrowind was bigger than the whole cyrodiil in oblivion :mellow:

Another opportunity to retell the story about my dream about when I was in Skyrim and, to get away from some guys who wanted to kill me, I snowboarded down a slope on my shield.

No, it just feels hat way but Oblivion is bigger. That said, Cyrodiil is much more scaled down compared to Vvardenfell, if you check maps, Vvardenfell isn't that big compared to the rest of Morrowind and half, if not less of Cyrodiil's size. Plus, High Rock/Hammerfell in Daggerfall is incredibly big, it takes 20 something hours just to walk across diagonally. So really, there's no such thing as province being too small and such, if anything smaller ones will only be richer.

I must admit that I haven't played Hammerfall yet, but I'd still like to have another ES game in the Iliac Bay area (High Rock/Hammerfell) as I'd love to see these provinces more detailed as well as smaller so you can actually explore the whole thing. Plus, I'd love to see some pirate action and factions around this.

As someone else stated. Cyrodill is bigger than Morrowind without question. It just doesn't seem like it because of all the cliffs you have to go around but here's a way to put it into perspective. Get MGE and look around. Morrowind is tiny in comparison to Cyrodill. Vvardenfell so far has been the smallest in the series. Not bashing it. Morrowind is, in my opinion, one of the greatest games in history.

I'm not too worried where we are, though Skyrim seems like it could be a good place. I tried not to vote too much (I would love to see Valenwood and Elweyr, for example), because I'd end up voting for everything, so I had to vote Summerset and Skyrim as the places I wanna see. I love the whole prospect of both. I love Nordic culture in general, and the lake vampires really intrigue me. I also love to see corruption in games. I can imagine the homeland of the superioritist Altmer to be a very corrupt place, and with the fall of the empire that we all know is coming, slavery may even make a comeback. I also voted Morrowind, because I'd love to see the aftermath of Infernal City in an expansion, or something. I just wanna see a huge, smouldering, fiery wreck.

I would absolutly love to see Black Marsh, obviously, but I just don't feel we can give it justice right now. TESVII. VI, maybe. I can't vote for it.

Makes me think, I recently resumed playing my assassin dude in Oblivion and am going to do the Shadowscale quest of the Dark Brotherhood, it would be awesome if you could be a Shadowscale Argonian. Well, any Argonian can be a Shadowscale in any TES game but it'd be great if there were implications about that in a TES game taking place in Black Marsh.

Actually, it was about 16 sq. miles (4mi. X 4mi.), depending on how and what you measure. The game area in Morrowind, which was supposed to be nothing more than a medium sized island (Vvardenfell) within Morrowind province, was more than half that. OB also included a lot of "unplayable" area on the borders and some places in the mountains which you could not actually reach, and which makes the whole comparison difficult.

IMO I want it to be set in a forest type map. And not any kind of forests... Central/Northern European forests.

Why not Akavir, or Pyandonea? Why is the poll restrictive to Tamriel?

MUAHAHAHHAHAH

long live the high elves, I would imagine they have some pretty nice architecture/cities

I would like to see someplace new, someplace fresh, I hear Skyrim is really cold this time of year.

I voted for Elsweyr just because I always wanted to know what kind of world the Kahjiit come from. I loved the look of Morrowind and how a lot of towns resembled shells or mushrooms. I found oblivion's setting rather dull in comparison.. Pretty.. but visually it was all very recognizable. I want something unique and unrecognizable. It feels much more magical and mysterious when exploring.

I do not want to see flowting crystal balls that shine with blue/red/green/whatever color in a city in the magical southern cristmas land where elves are high...

Because that would svck.

Pyandonea, sure, we could probably get a nice expansion focused there, and the Maormer are pretty awesome, but Akavir could never be done justice in an expansion.

Neither are enough to merit a full game, either. I mean, Pyandonea is just too insignificant to most lore, and there's a non existent/near to none mer/man presence in Akavir (and I believe so in Pyandonea, too, somewhat, apart from the Maormer). Also, Akavir's mystery is just amazing.

I would actually like to see Yokuda. Perhaps as some kind of expansion, where Redguards are living on the remains (it is still minorly intact), with some sunken city-ruins in the seas. A lot of that atlantis sea theme.

And here's the pitch:

Instead of provinces, or continents, they're planets. Tamriel is the solar-system. Tamriel floats in a rift, in normal space, where magic exists; between perpetual creation and eternal death. Magnus was a human scientist which built the Starry-Heart, to enter a divide in space time, where mankind could stabilize after the Universe suffers a cataclysmic aneurysm. Thus magic from Magnus. The Yoku, Tsaesci, Kamal, Sload, etc exist within the rift, but in corners where the worlds are being eaten; they're swallowed by death, then reenter creation. It's very chaotic and static, in the corners (hence the weird forms [but no cat people!] as humans are exposed to God but don't die).

So, the Anuad.
...

Without elves/orcs/lizards. The planets are inhabited by humans, and a couple alien species (Sload, Tsaesci, Kamal, and Imga). Which, as I said, are not really aliens, but humans further from the center of Tamriel, which sheltered a fraction of mankind from being destroyed in the Big Crunch. Mmm... and no species of human "owns" a planet. They all come from Earth, but Earth didn't survive. Boo hoo. They're spread out, in the solar-system of Tamriel.

Ok, lots of Tekumel influence, but whatever. That's a good thing.

There: TESV.

Lately we’ve been more lenient about TES V topics here but they have unfortunately begun to overrun this forum so we will be cracking down on them again. I've locked most of the recent threads about TES V or future TES games and redirected them to several official threads pertinent to the topic. I won't be locking this one, it is in no way official but it is an acceptable topic to keep separate and perhaps it's time we put together an official one (we have an official location thread for FO4).

If they made Vallenwood and Elsweyr together in 1 game (which i hope they do) then add those votes together and they win beating Summerset Isle. Yay!! im so happy

I think it should be the Summerset Isle but what ever they pick will be good either way JUST GIVE ME TES V!

Yeah, above all else, the setting should be feel foreign IMO. Morrowind achieved this feeling very well; Oblivion felt like the local Renaissance fair.

I'd like a Skyrim setting, if we are going to see a state-of-the-art nordic setting, far better than the one present in Oblivion. Otherwise other provinces i'd like are Summerset Isle or Hammerfell, but more the first one.

Out of the sea, the Sload will slither. Summerset Isle, the first to wither!

I would hope to see it in Skyrim, and with any luck the Snow Elves would make an appearance.

its in skyrim! that official!

Well its official now isn't it?

Yep, we don't need this old thread anymore. :ahhh: :twirl:
