I'm also sure that we can look forward to the existing class toolkits getting some strategic nerfs to carve out a place in the meta for the new Arcanist. Sorry if that sounds pessimistic, but after Wardens and Necromancers, let's just say that ZOS has a track record of doing exactly that.
Well, they literally stole major mending out of templar's passives for warden, so... yes, this is exactly what will happen.4 -

✭✭✭✭✭Best way to describe new story is Shadow over Morrowind. It will be Elder Scrolls meets Cosmic Horror.
New Cinematic Trailer being shown2 -

✭✭✭✭✭Everything centers around Hermaeus Mora. Mora is the knower of unknown and hordes knowledge. Hidden powers threaten his realm, trying to uncover a secret that can unravel all of reality. Players will be tested by MOra to see if they can protect the secret that the baddies are trying to uncover.
Not the Morrowind everryone knows, will be take place in Telvanni Pennisula. Different feel to other locations, hasn't been explored since Arena. Will look quite different though.
Necrom is a city of the dead where Dunmer buried deceased. Really old city.
Will also explore Apocrypha, the realm of Mora0 -

They also ganked warden's +5% to magic damage. Watch Arcanist get a + bonus to magic damage.2 -

✭✭✭✭✭Telvanni Peninsula originally visited in Arena, first time returning in 30 years. The giant mushrooms are back. East Asian architecture also returning.
But, they also wanted to make some new stuff to explore too.
Necrom predates Tribunal. Necrom inters honored dead. You'll find out if some of Vivec's tall tales are true or not. Vivec supposedly Gorgmagil and it has his bones around it, and you'll decide for yourself if it's true.
Specially took inspiration from classic Telvanni buildings in Morrowind.
Apocrophya based off how it's presented in Skyrim.

✭✭✭✭✭Necrom is neutral to the great houses. All dark elves can appease ancestors and bring dead to Necrom. It's an ancient city that is not controlled by any one house even though surrounded by the Telvanni. Very important because predates Tribunal.
Some cool new enemy types and allies. The Hushed are creatures that became twisted by Mora's realm, for example.

✭✭✭✭✭Arcanist channels Aprocypha knowledge and fights with runic knowledge.
Offense, defense, and support skill line.
One lets you open portals like the portal game
Also you can hit people with a cool tentacle thrust with your arm
Some abilities will build points and some will spend them, which is a new class system type thing.1 -

This is kind of what I expected, it looks great and all, but it's just sad that these new systems are tied into a new class, which I'm honestly not that interested in, the systems themselves don't sound bad but it's just so limited since it's all class based.1 -

✭✭✭✭✭There will be Two New Companions.
Sharp as Knight, male warden mercenary enigma. Originated from Black Marsh, past is lost to him. Can't figure out who he is. IS very reserved and not very chatty.
Xander. Redguard male, crazy fatherly type. willy wonka meets dumbledore, singularly focused on pursuit of knowledge. Arcanist himself.1 -
