Next time title your post accordingly. Totally thought there was content to look at here =/

As for now, there is no solid information, aside from tiny hints in Dragonhold & people speculation.
The only thing we know so far is it will be something Nord or Skyrim related (some part of Skyrim, maybe Solstheim island, we dont know far sure).

The thing that bothers me more is... how they are gonna make it possible with current servers (on EU especially) ?
You see, servers in ESO were I guess never upgraded. ZOS is doing only a lot of optimizations so that the game would work. It even came to changing (nerfing) some skills in game, like effects on skills or AOE skills so that they would cause less stress server side.

Meanwhile, we had more & more new players coming in. With Elsweyr, probably there were too many players for the game server to handle, as during pick hours servers started to choke. Also, during events when all account login for the event the server simply started dying on regular bases.

If next chapter is another "nostalgic" chapter (Skyrim in almost 10 years old), then what do you think will happen ? EU server simply wont boot and NA will suffer the same fate as EU. Too many players, and little to no hardware upgrade on the mega-server end...

This year, the Elsweyr mine happened in January. Last couple years before that it was in December. So, not quite yet.

Last year’s datamine was right at the beginning of the year, @Libonotus ... so you’re way off on your timeline.

Next time try to post something worth discussing ...

i hate those spoilers demanding threads. Stop attaching to leaks, current content is not enough or satisfying? need a reason to come play or what

I'm going to assume it's east skyrim - like Morthal/Markarth/Whiterun and Solitude - excluding only Falkreath for obvious reasons. This will be the main expansion.

I feel like if they add Solstheim, it will be the "part 2" regular DLC like they did with South Elsweyr. Solstheim is about the size of a DLC zone, so it makes sense to me.

Pure speculation of course.

Put a question mark in the thread title. Everyone thinks you actually have something to show.

Do we know for sure or are you merely speculating and presenting it as fact? Because if not I'd love the source of this absolute knowledge.

Lets hope it is in the land of new servers

New Server chapter would be cool

Honestly i'm tired of everyone wanting or expecting this game to be a skyrim online and visit the same places. I feel like the dragons were almost peer pressured into the game from people crying so much about wanting them.

Yes. Current content isn't enough. PvP is borderline unplayable and PvE endgame got nothing. Also not everyone wets their pants for cats or dragons.

BTW I 100% agree on your signature.

idk

The next chapter has been surmised from the content released this year but that is all I have read.

Think of it this way - if they put a Skyrim expansion out, that's it , Skyrim will be complete and you never have to hear it asked for again.

Secondly I don't think there's any expectation for "Skyrim online." Zos pledges long ago to fill up the map of Tamriel throughout the game's cycle. The rest of Skyrim was always an inevitability.

PS I thought Dragons was a weird addition too tbh. But being able to visit Skyrim again just feels natural considering we want to explore all of Tamriel.

The next chapter will be set in Akavir, but we won't see it until 2021.

We will have to spend all of 2020 logging in at least 4 times every day for an unending sting of separate 'special' events to earn enough tickets to buy a ticket to reach Akavir.

The IP will also rebrand itself Elder Tickets Online. Those scrolls? Not really scrolls. Rolled up tickets.

Then this one end up having to grind it.

So much to do, so little time.

Perhaps a third megaserver might ease some pressure, say in Oceana for example? Yes? Well then
