    Elsweyr, Necromancy, Dragons. I really don't see how those three things are related.

    @ZOS_Lawrence_Schick I look forward to your explanations.

    Special thanks to UESP Discord's @Thalmor_Justiciar AKA Smirkmire (I hope you don't mind I put the information together in this thread). He said he's datamining more stuff later that we know what's coming (skills, architecture etc.) - I will keep this thread updated.

    hey, that's me!

    Even though I am a lore junkie, I firmly believe that lore should not get in the way of having fun. I am all excited for next chapter and the necromancer class. TES is the property of ZOS & Bethesda and they can do as they please. It's not like human history which is set in stone

    Lol why skill line? It would be much more difficult to manage and last chapter had soo many complaints due to single Psijic Skill Line.

    Class pack with 3 skill line and lot of passives, we need class.

    Lol all the Forum Loreplars... all ZoS gotta do is put a Dragon Break into the plot line... then they can do whatever they want in this alternate reality...
    As has been mentioned previously in other threads that put the entirety of ESO in a Dragon Break, that would be a seriously boring cop-out when there are other more interesting explanations that can be used. Besides, there is no recorded Dragon Break in the Interregnum - so unless we have inexplicably ended up in 2E 896 (which, incidentally, is when a Dragon Break occurred in Elsweyr), I'm sure they will come up with something else.

    I would laugh if they only implemented this things to troll us all and they release this only in the crownstore. I am not sure if they would tease the whole Thing with ending the 3 Banners war if they would go to an other Zone outside of Cyrodiil. And i don't think that the polt would be that abnur catches some Dragons, convince them to help him and then destroy all 3 alliances while he gets help by the hero who destroyes all Kajhits who are in elswheyr becaus as a part of the doninion they have to attac Abnur when he starts this.

    What if the second Dragon's Break from the Psijic Order questline brought the dragons back? Or you know, it could be necromancers who did it in Elsweyr. Maybe that's how it's all connected? Although... I didn't really see a connection with the Warden class and Morrowind, as nature and green is more of a wood elf thing, not a dark elf thing. Correct me if I'm wrong on that though.

    Personally, I am extremely excited for this chapter. I've been wanting to play as a necromancer since day one, and if I didn't already being my Dragonknight tank to where it is, I could easily see a necromancer being my main character. Dragons though? I was kinda expecting that for Skyrim, because well, Skyrim.

    The mounts look really cool too! A NOCTURNAL WOLF?! SIGN ME UP. I usually ride the Coldflame Wolf and the Green Ghost Cat, but that Nocturnal Wolf might be a new one for me.

    Lol how is this lore-breaking?

    Not all the dragons are dead during the time of the 2nd Era...Not even during the time of the 3rd Era.
    Just because an NPC or book said it, doesn't mean it's true.

    TES: Redguard (a game before Skyrim, ESO, etc.) shows a literal dragon and Paarthunax has been chilling in the Throat of the World for a long time. I don't think people pay attention to lore or dialog.

    Welcome, Moon-and-Star, to this place where destiny is made.

    I play healers or DPS often for vet dungeons and trials (NA, CP810+). I play mostly elves or Argonians.
    I primarily play Damage-Based stuff in PvP, but occasionally I'll play something tanky or got the heals.
    I also love gaining more knowledge both metaphysical and mundane regarding TES lore.

    I also occasionally role-play, but I prefer playing the game.

    I don't think anyone was saying there are NO dragons. Just hoping that the tease wasn't implying there is going to be a literal horde of dragons just flying around as overland mobs. There aren't that many dragons.

    this would not explain it in terms of tes,but in GOT/Asoiaf those other than Targaryens do desire dragons of their own.They just never get them.I can only expect that something similar may be at work here.

    It would only be lore breaking if it’s a mass of dragons. Having one or 2 boss encounters would be alright as in lore, there are a handful that are alive before the events of Skyrim (as you pointed out, I mentioned these but got the wrong game for the redguard one)

    But dragons? Come on. HOPEFULLY you've at least come up with a plausible excuse as to why they are suddenly here where they very much don't belong ZOS.

    The mounts are, as usual, nothing I want.

    Kinda looking forward to the ghost kitty. Do NOT put it in a gamble box please!

    Can we get a new race too? All we have now are four. Yes FOUR. All the Humans are just different ethnicities of the same race. All Elves are just different ethnicities of the same race. Honestly it makes for boring race choices when they mostly all look the same.

    How about playable Daedra? Have some break off from Oblivion. Give them customization that includes demon and insect aspects to make them look less like a plain human variant.

    Class pack with 3 skill line and lot of passives, we need class.

    There are many types of players but two very distinctive ones are the "one main character players" (who maybe have more characters but he/she spends more then 90% ingame time with one character), and there the ones with many characters without a dedicated main.
    The first is not interested in new class because they hvae their main since xy time, and they don't interested to start a new character, but would welcome a new skill line for their main, the later ones are more eager to make a new class character for new playsytle.

    To have bigger support from the first group make class change tokken avaiable for a reasonable price (also 1 for a daily reward).

    It's more difficult to balance classes.

    The game needs horizontal progression.

    I don't want to have to levl up a new character from Lvl 3 to 50 again, and I don't have any more slots.

    In fact, all ESO classes should be extinguished and replaced with Skill Lines.

    This is ESO, not WoW or FFXIV.

    Dude...they're daedra. They're kill on sight. They don't just leave their realms and come here after a change of heart to serve the good people of Tamriel unless they're summoned and bound by magicka basically against their will.

    With about the same ease as the combat pet Daedra do now, or as the pet undead are probably going to wander around Alik'r desert. Not even mentioning all the strange non-combat pets, mounts, and the countless headless Hollowjack and various atronach incarnations of the Vestige.
