I think Morrowind will be it for a while. If they do another one from a previous game, it will be something different, like Shivering Isles. The next Chapter will be some zone in the game, like Summerset Isle, where no TES game has really gone.

I am pretty sure we won't got to the Summerset Isle or Elsweyr (or Akavir e.g. Redguard territory) because those regions are possible locations for ES 6. As much as I like ESO, they won't waste a small DLC (sorry, expansion) on a region that could be a totally new ES game.

There is only going to be one (1) single player TES game released in the next several years. TES 6 gets to pick where it wants to go, and that will be it for the restrictions on ESO from that quarter. If TES 6 goes to Summerset or Elsweyr, we won't go there, but we could go to the other.

While I know BGS will make a new TES, and Howard never wants to stop, there are limits to how many they roll out and how quickly they do it. ESO is not going to sit around for 10-15 years waiting for BGS to slowly crank out single player games.

I agree, they cooperate on TES 6 in that the area will not be used in ESO, any other area is open, TES 7 is too far off to even think about now.

I think that TES 6 is too far off to even think about. With Fallout 4 supporting VR in the near future, and it sounds like both Fallout 4 and Skyrim are going to be released on new and updated platforms, my guess is that TES 6 is a very very long way off. I am thinking another 5-6 years. My guess is that TES 6 is not much past the decision on what toy action figure to use as the basis for the game.

It is impossible to predict where TES 6 will take place because they have barely started on it, according to Howard. I made it sound like BGS gets sole power to make the decision, but they do cooperate. If The Powers That Be feel that Summerset Isle fits better into the ESO world as a Chapter, then TES 6 will probably not be set Summerset Isle. ESO is not a red headed step child, or someone they keep in a small room under the stairs. They will do what they think is best for both TES and ESO because both games are making a ton of money for them.

Redguard. I still say the probability is (1/3) that it will be an ESO Chapter, (1/3) that it will be used by Legends, and (1/3) that it will be an Elder Scrolls mobile game. (edit: 100% that it will be used)
