After the Season of the Dragon, what could the next expansion be?

CMDR_Un1k0rn · July 2019

My money is on southern Cyrodiil.

RaveRaveRaveRave · July 2019

I vote for some Alice in Wonderland-like, trippy Shivering Isles Realm of Madness LS...errr DLC.

TrinityBreaker · July 2019

Season of Bux fixes.

CMDR_Un1k0rn · July 2019

That's a good point. It could easily take place in Oblivion. Another location I've not seen mentioned is Solstheim.

MartiniDaniels · July 2019

Server expansion plz

maybe a new zone in some daedric realm

I prefer if they actually manage to fix/balance warden and necro before they add a New class

But a bard class with a buff/debuff tree could be very fun to play i guess ^^

mague · July 2019

We had Daedra, Tribunal, Stars and Dragons. Its is time for Aedra and The Eight. Maybe west of Cyrodiil. It wont be a new class, but a guild. As in Warden - Psijic Order - Necromancer - [insert guild here]. I hope it is a monk based guild

Moth priests confirmed LOL.

Much as Khajiit would like more lovely warm sands this one suspects we will follow the dragons to snowy places.

Such is the life of a traveller. To leave the home you love and to fight to save the home of someone else …

Then go home again having saved the world to spend a week or two trying to get chairs to align perfectly.

I'm thinking vampires in County Skingrad and the Colovian Highlands maybe more of Coldharbour and Malcolm McDowell back as Molag bal. I'd also like to see Laura Bailey back as Serana. She seemed surprised when mentioning Cyrodiil was the seat of an empire so she was seemingly around during the second era and maybe before.

You won't be seeing Hammerfell because that's TES VI.

we didnt have scothish themed armor sets ^^ thats maybe also one way to think about it, which armor sets themes are still open...

Nemesis7884 · July 2019

Solstheim would be cool...it has the right size too and you can justify why an event only happens there and not somewhere else due to it being an island... i think a trsding company established raven rock in that time? maybe we could be part of an expeditionary force...

solstheim would also allow for falmer, riekling, Skaal and Stahlrim armors and themes

The Season of the Whale

gepe87 · July 2019

Season of the Bear xD

-Stonefalls and The Rift Dungeons
-Western Skyrim Chapter
-Western Skyrim Dungeons
-Winterhold DLC (city with size as Abah's Landing)

or

Season of the Daedra

-Summerset and Coldharbor dungeons (Summerset/Main quest story aftermath)
-The Coloured Rooms chapter (equal to Coldharbor, just replaced by Meridian/Auroran elements and antagonist. Coldharbor and Coloured Rooms as "yin/yang" cause Meridia and Molag Bal are sworn enemies).
-Coloured Rooms Dungeons
-Cyrodill DLC as a place to finish the story (Aedric cult as opposition to Daedric cult)

I hardly doubt it. In every TES game it was are strongly connected with were-creatures (werewolf & werebear). If something, this will for sure appear in ESO sooner or later, but will most likely be connected with WW & Vamp somehow.

And seeing what ZOS is doing with WW this update, I hardly doubt they will add this any time soon.

My problem with Daedric realms is that they are too one dimensional.

Quests featuring Dremora won't have the narrative depth of quests involving mortals and all their character flaws. Dremora simply don't get into the same predicaments as mortals.

RavenSworn · July 2019

Season of the Hammer.

kind_hero · July 2019

I wish they would skip a DLC/chapter and make some much requested/needed updates and overhauls to the game. Better textures, models, fixes, furnishings, stability, etc.

They are changing the combat quite often, so I would like the next updates to be focused on an overhaul of the older zones, and content that has outdated graphics. Maybe revisit some areas and add conclusions to some quests/areas

Nemesis7884 · July 2019

if that is no reason to have it in solstheim i don't know what you want
- they also have a strong link to dragons, dragonpriests, dragonbornes etc...and it might allow for another deadric prince... (and we get a watcher pet - maybe a wink)

Robo_Hobo · July 2019

I think Skyrim will be held off until 2021 - can't pass up the chance to use #10years in the promotions for it.

I think Hammerfell will be held off for a while too, partly because of TES6 being Hammerfell and because of that they might want to keep at least some of it secret, but partly because the landscape of Hammerfell might be too similar to Northern Elsweyr and they've mentioned they've wanted to keep the area releases from being too similar to each other so soon. At most I would expect a small-scale story DLC for Hammerfell within the next couple years.

Morrowind is definitely not due for more land for a while yet with Vvardenfell so recent and so much of it in-game already, and Black Marsh as well might still need to wait a bit because of Murkmire, but I think we'll see more Black Marsh before we see more Morrowind at very east.

So with all of that said that leaves Cyrodiil and non-tamriel areas. I think we'll be seeing Cyrodiil with Colovian Highlands pretty soon, and/or possibly a trip to a realm of Oblivion before we get into Skyrim for 2021. I can't tell which would be the Chapter area and which would be the small DLC area though, nor even say which realm of Oblivion it could be, but a few contenders could be Meridia's realm, Clavicus Vile's or Mephala's realm if they wanted to have a post-triad fallout story taking place in Oblivion.

Us returning the favor to Clavicus Vile and being stuck in a bargain with him that ends up with us being involved with taking care of some business going down in his realm, or being stuck with having to choose between two evils and choosing to help Mephala with something in her realm that, if not taken care of, could end up hurting Nirn if not dealt with there. Meridia is definitely looking like she'll be becoming something of an antagonist in the future, so if not soon, then eventually, I think we may be going to the Colored Rooms within a couple years, either as a DLC/Chapter or the added extension of one (Like how Artaeum came with Summerset).

SantieClaws · July 2019

If we are talking seasons rather than locations then a few spring to mind:

Season of the Khajiit - for real - stuff dragons

Season of the big fat slug people - the one where they eat all the snooty elves

Season of the Nord - every quest involves lost clothing

Season of the Sugar - more Khajiit things at a relaxed sort of pace

Season of the Claws - more Khajiit still but most especially about one family and all the yarn they own

Ha! Had, to look that up. Never played that game. Well, a lot of games I never bothered with.

Actually, I was thinking of the Donovan song title, when this thread started mentioning seasons. That and wishful thinking on my part.

NordSwordnBoard · July 2019

An Underwater chapter, getting an elder scroll from the Sloads or some new adversary.

redlink1979 · July 2019

I have no preference tbh as long performance is addressed 1st.

NotaDaedraWorshipper · July 2019

I'm guessing either Hammerfell or Cyrodiil.
Hammerfell because it got quite a bit still unexplored and we haven't had a chapter for any of the DC races yet. Which I would be happy with. I like deserts in games and seeing more of Hammerfell and the Redguards would be nice.

I would also like to see more of Blach March, but because Black March is Black March, it's less likely we get a big chapter for it. Can't have people dying of diseases and poisons right and left. #GiveArgoniansTheirPoisonResistBack.

Although, what I want and hope for the most is a Cyrodiil chapter. One were Cyrodiil and the Imperials actually get the focus and not Daedras, Dark Brotherhood, PvP and whatnot.

To be honest, I be happy with a lot of places as long as it's not Skyrim

With this years season of the dragon, we were and will be introduced to the regions of Elsweyr, but, as was when Summerset was released, I cant help but be excited for whats to come. So, this begs the question, whats IS coming in the future. The best we can hope for, of course, is that ZOS continues the schedule of releasing a major expansion every year, and with that I think that I have a solid theory as to what will be next. Based on where zone DLC have been released in the past year, and with the vast majority of the Aldmeri Dominion being filled in with the completion of the Season of the Dragon, I believe that the next large scale expansion will take place in either the Daggerfall Covenant or the Ebonheart Pact. Duh, I know, but bare with me. While I believe that the Covenant and the Pact will be the setting for the next expansion, I also have an idea as to where that will be in greater detail. Based on the level of completion of the Daggerfall Covenant, I believe that, if the next expansion is to be set there, it will expand on Hammerfell, possibly based on the story of the Redguard, and complete the map of the Covenant. But, the level of completion of the covenant map and the remaining bareness of the Pact map leads me to lean more heavily towards the thought that the next add on will take place in the pact. Furthermore, the first major expansion was, of course, Morrowind, so I tend to doubt that there will be another set there. And, while it is possible that the next completes the region of Black Marsh, I, again, think its unlikely due to the recent release of Murkmire. With this, it is my belief that, if the expansion is to be set within the pact, the story will be another set over a year-long release schedule and will complete the holds of Skyrim (due to their often being mentioned in the game, but them not being able to be explored). So, thoughts? Id love to hear any opinions on my speculation. Personally, I'd love to get to walk the streets of 2nd Era Whiterun and see Markarth before the settlement brought about with the Septim dynasty. But, I want to hear other speculation on the subject. So, any opinion is a welcome one.

Hoping it has something to do with the Bretons because of the Breton hero. That guy has had his a** handed to him, died and now apparently he is a necromancer. His story interests me a lot and I want to know more on how he was brought back to life and what he did in the mean time to end up in eleswer.

But I would also like to find out whats up with the Nord hero as well. He is one bad dude but apparently he is still in the imperial city being held as a prisoner.
