How will future chapters look like? (about map)

Lyserus

Now, there are several areas that can be new chapters:
Elsewhyr, Colovia, Nibeny, Skyrim, Blackmarsh, Hammerfell, and maybe Telvanni terriotory (not big enough to my opinion)

However, only Elsewhyr and Nibeny are "untouched". Other regions, more or less are already broken to pieces,

Except the 3 province we already completely mapped (highrock, summerset, valenwood) and elsewhyr and nibeny, I don't see how rest of the provinces' map can be mapped without looking weird

If they are mapped as a whole region, they simply don't feel right (take blackmarsh as an example, taken shadowfen and muirkmire away and the rest of blackmarsh is in a really weird shape)

If they are splits to regions, well chapters have never done that before, and that will require each region have their own stuff (argueably more contents than summerset and morrowind chapter are needed to make all the split regions feel "filled"

I really wonder how will ESO implement rest of the regions after elsewhyr and nibeny

In the vanilla game, the jump for EP players from Shadowfen to Eastmarch was pretty discontinuous.

I wouldn’t be surprised if they tried it again, to deal with problem.

whatever I just hope they will be at least Claglorn size

There are other territories namely "The Reach" which would make for great areas as they're quite large and plenty of space for content we got a taste of them in Wrothgar and various enemies but we've never been to their territory. Colovia is rather small so probably a DLC same with nibeny, blackmarsh most likely will be the next chapter as we got a murkmire DLC.

Elsewhyr is also an interesting prospect too.

There is a more.......Sensitive.....choice for the devs to make too. Akavir. I know what people will say and such as we've never been there in the previous games and because well nobodies really seen the inhabitants (fully).

There is also Lyg. This one is interesting because its the birthplace of mehrunes dagon and molag bal and is the opposite in every single way of tamriel but also its reflection however its a extremely confusing so how the writers would fill that is a mystery.

The reason I bring up other continents is because tamriel will eventually run out of regions large enough for chapters and nobody would be able to justify smaller provinces as full chapter zones. Not at the scale in which chapters are based i.e people were hoping summerset would be bigger than it actually is map wise and exploration wise.

I not agree. Colovia size is similar to Vvardenfell and Summerset. The relief of the map might be more important than the two other chapter. And then the conditions of antagonism and context are brought together for a chapter.

Nibenay is an area that is too big, although very mountainous.
