I get that not everyone is excited to return to Skyrim. But as someone who legitimately loves The Elder Scrolls' lore, the idea of getting to see what Winterhold was like when it was Skyrim's capital is friggin' exciting to me!
Just a tip: lower your expectations or you might get disappointed. We are going to get the rest of Skyrim. Winterhold is north of Windhelm or at least that is, where it should be. Remember, they messed up the map. Anyway, it is unlikely that we will get Winterhold, when it is located in eastern Skyrim, while the expansion will be set in western Skyrim.

✭Just another half sized zone with closed houses, cities as public dungeons and a main story about saving the world from destruction.

What are Eastmarch and The Rift if not two of the regions that comprise Skyrim?
We’ve already been back to eastern Skyrim. People just seem to want to go back... more.
I’ll get behind this expansion just after they announce they’ll do the rest of mainland Morrowind.
Nords, Nords and more bloody Nords. Azura help us all.

✭✭For me it's not that they're going back to Skyrim, it's that the rift and eastmarch are my least favorite ESO zones by far and I'm reluctant to be excited about what the "vision" is for the rest of Skyrim.
Plenty of other areas they could have chosen that have either never been in an ES game or haven't been revisited like the rest of Cyrodiil."It is a lovely language, but it takes a very long time saying anything in it, because we do not say anything in it, unless it is worth taking a long time to say, and to listen to." - Treebeard5 -

I don't hate nostalgia... I was very supportive of Morrowind chapter... The problem is Skyrim... I just find it so dull. Hopefully they will spice it with something else besides dragons and vikin.. Erm .. "Nords". I like the glowy mushrooms, a trip to the center of the earth sounds cool. Maybe something with Dwemers.5 -

I mean Skyrim here won't have dragons sooooooooo *shrug*
All of the characters in ESV are not alive (except Hakkon and Serana)
Skyrim is in a lot of political strife during this era, and The Reachmen are a massive part of that.
We will likely never get to see The Greybeards at the top of the Throat of the World. They have no need of us.
So, not sure how this could be a retread for "fanbois," but you do you.Sweetrolls for all!

✭✭✭✭If that explosion were visible to the other end of Tamriel, in Skyrim, then the Pelitine peninsula would have been incinerated. It would be something on the high megaton range, similar to the IRL "Tsar Bomba" from the early 1960s or a VEI 6-7 eruption like Krakatoa in the 1880s.

See, I found Morrowind a snooze aside from the nostalgia factor. Snotty dunmer, lava, giant bugs. If I never see another giant mushroom it'll be too soon. To each their own.

Faulgor✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭✭Just surprised they confirmed Skyrim at the VGAs and didn't wait until next month.
But regardless, the zone content hasn't really been an issue with the last chapters, it's the lack and quality of game features. I'm curious if they'll announce something interesting in January, hopefully not another new class.Alandrol Sul: He's making another Numidium?!?

Agree.
Not against going to those regions - just would like an ORIGINAL storyline that has no relation to TES V. So no more dragons (please god no more dragons); no dawnguard; no Vampire Lords and abso-bloody-lutely NO DRAGONBORN.
A good story, perhaps about The Reach, would be welcome. And I want to know what Meridia is up to & possibly ‘rescue’ Darien.
(And seeing as how I live in the UK, am having to get used to things happening that I might not like done to appeal to the lowest common denominator <sigh> )Edited by Hallothiel on December 13, 2019 11:50AM5 -
