They already said we are going to the reach in Q4. Said it earlier in the year before greymoor came out I think.

Just discovered info for the furture zone dlc
Three new ancestral motifs
Ancestral akaviri, Ancestral barbaric and ancestral breton
and from my experience with elder scrolls lore i've also discovered where i think the next zone dlc will take place!
remember sky haven temple?
that's found in southern skyrim
and it's akaviri in origin
and reachmen resided outside of the temple during the 4th era
so you put the pieces together, we're gonna be heading to southern skyrim next time!

Good detective work = ) Even if you missed them stating this, you still figured it out on your own through in game clues. That is still a win in my book! GJ!

I wouldn't get your hopes up for Sky Haven Temple.

Sky Haven is sealed shut by a door that can only be opened by the blood of a dragonborn.

BGS wouldn't let ZOS have a "Winking Skeever" Inn in Solitude, so what chance do you think ZOS have of getting Alduin's Wall? It's one of the most iconic features of TES V (a game which is not dead but still a going concern).

I'm expecting we'll get to see some buildings perched on top of an unscalable mountain, and that is all.

They wouldn't allow the name, you mean. That inn is there in Solitude, with exactly the same layout.

This is because it is made clear in TESV that the name "Winking Skeever" is fairly recent. It's literally named for the current proprietor's (TESV time) pet Skeever. He tells you himself if you ask.

The name is changed purely for this. Which makes sense given the dialogue from TESV. But the iconic inn is very much there.

EDIT: Alduin's Wall is ancient, built around the Reman Era. It's definitely there, if not accessible due to the blood-seal.

Which makes sense lorewise, as the inn got that name by its owner Corpulus Vinius in the 4th era. He named it after his childhood pet.

UESP says:

When asked about the name of the inn, Corpulus will reply: "Well, as it turns out, I had a pet skeever when I was a boy and he used to wink." If you express surprise at such a peculiar choice of pet, Corpulus explains that "They were smaller back then."

Does that sound convincing to you, especially coming from a man in a bar? Skeevers suddenly got bigger?

Sounds like a tall tale to me. Told by someone trying to hide something from an inquisitive stranger. Like hide the fact that the inn's name actually advertises the criminals that can be found there (e.g. Gulum-Ei), and that a blind eye will be turned to any shady business that's conducted there.

If "the winking skeever" name had been used in ESO I'm sure it would have been easy to create lore to agree with that reality without it in anyway being a retcon. Perhaps Rogef could have been made to tell us the exact same story as Corpulus about the inn's name.

As @Syldras has said, there's still nothing wrong or "lore-breaking" with the different name, considering that ESO takes place so many centuries before TESV.

It is true that public buildings in Tamriel usually retain their name for their entire lifetime... Lesser landmarks such as say, Proudspire Manor? They might, but then they might not. It's a matter of taste for the owner, usually.

An Inn? Mate, that's just a business and other than the fact that it's oft' used as a meeting place it doesn't really hold any other significance. Businesses rise and fall by the month, even in Tamriel, and frankly a name change after the building moves hands and becomes a new business, is frankly as lore-friendly it gets, as it just shows that buildings are owned by many people over the centuries.

Will skyrim finally be complete after 2 zones already being in the base game and an entire year of content being focused on the country?

No. We'll still be missing Whiterun, The Pale and Winterhold. More than enough for another year's chapter and DLC
