[Suggestion] Send our character forward in time to the time of Tyber Septim

I think we need to see the time of Tyber Septim, it's an important event in the history of Tamriel. Seeing the conquests of Tyber Septim or Talos as he would be known in Skyrim would actually be pretty cool to see and seeing the end of the three banners war after all that time would actually make for a pretty good ending for the entire story of the Elder Scrolls Online.

    No let's not. Jumping 300 + years into the future just makes no sense.
    Plus not everyone is crazy about Tiber Septim.

    He's Tiber. Going from Tiberius.

    My vote would go with "no". Also no need to end the war, it would create more problems than anything good with approach zenimax have taken.

    the only way i could see any kind of "time travel" thing working is if it was in an entirely instanced quest (like maybe akin to the harborage quests)

    but like others suggest i dont think that fits within the scope of the game and there would have to be some real reason for doing so

      As soon as they end that Cyrodil needs to become a PvE zone.

      I don't think they are willing to do that so the War will never end.

      I don't think that's a good idea story wise. You'd basically make every single zone an imperial zone, and by making it an end to ESO that's... well the end of ESO. Everyone knows the ending who has any sort of lore knowledge so why bother going about it?

      Also our characters probably wouldn't even live long enough to see the conquests of Tiber Septim unless they were a vampire, long lived elf, or incredibly skilled with restoration or alteration magic as a human. Also I think time travel plots are rather silly so please no... leave that for the story books like the Song of Pelin.

      I think it's a great idea for eso 2. Tiber Septim can be the "bad guy" and the factions of that game can be trying to hold out against him and his giant robot.

      I don't see why we'd need to see it. It's been part of the lore since Arena, along with several other important moments in history and I never felt like I was missing anything by not playing them. I also think it would feel too limited and predictable, because we already know what happens.

      I know ESO is already a prequel, but it was deliberately set during a period where very little information survived to appear in the mainline games. We knew the world wouldn't be completely destroyed or pulled into Coldharbour, and that there would be no ultimate winner in the 3 Banners War (which was probably important, to stop players favouring that faction) but other than that everything was uncertain and undecided, which gives both ZOS and players the freedom to explore.

      I think it could happen, as someone else mentioned the Psijic Order has the ability to control time, and there's some debate about whether the Vestige can ever die (since we know they can't be killed permanently) so another option is simply a sequel DLC where they're still alive at that point. But I'm not sure it would be interesting for players.

      Just because something is technically possible within the boundries of an inconsistent fantasy world, doesn't make it a good writing, especially when we already know the ending and all the plot twists.

      It's sure going to require a lot of redesign to implement the world from Oblivion - pretty sure the budget for that does not exist.

      Also - that world exists in Oblivion. Time travel is the sign on a long running series grasping for ideas to survive.

      The only way I can imagine having any interest in a quest, chapter, or whole game in the time of Tyber Septim is if we have the option to break the timeline into an alternate history by stopping him, ideally by sending his soul straight to the Void (not a fan of the DB, but giving the would-be Talos the Blade of Woe would be very satisfying and well-deserved).
      Kill one man, and you are a murderer.
      Kill millions of men, and you are a conqueror.
      Kill them all, and you are a god.

      I mean, he technically did became a God, just only after the events of Daggerfall when his soul, combined with two others, all became Talos together in death then rewrote time itself, creating a whole new timeline...

      I actually more interested my character meeting an ancestor tied to the Septim family during the current 2nd era year than time traveling to a later year in 2E to meet Tiber.

      Though ESO isn't shy of time traveling, for it happened to a few NPC already. Also the fact the Psijic Order were able to send a unicorn to the future (Skyrim) to fix a wrongdoing (original last unicorn was sacrificed in Oblivion). So it's plausible of them to send us to the future, but it's up to ZOS team & the ok from the main TES series team.

      That being said I still prefer meeting a ancestor.

      For seeing a visual of what all what Tiber done during his time during of 2E, imo, I rather see in a flashback in like TES6, if ZOS do make a ESO2 it could take during then, or a animated movie/series focus on the events of Tiber Septim.

      Main is Blue-Thuxis, a Argonian stamSorc, whose also is a werewolf! 2nd main, Cobalt-Thuxis, a Argonian stamArc, an identical twin sister to Blue-Thuxis, even is a werewolf as well! some alts:
      Nirn-Scale Rajthux (Argonian, Templar), Ros-Ei Nature-Thuxis (Argonian, Warden), Crimson-Thuxis (Argonian, DK), Bone-Thuxis Tharn (Argonian, Necro) Why Bone-Thuxis has Tharn as a last name:
      The siblings were separated at a young age due to a Dres slaver raid, Blue, Cobalt, Ros-Ei & their mother were able to escape, Crimson & Bone weren't that lucky. Crimson was later "rescued" by some Orcs that later ambushed the House Dres Dunmers, unfortunately one Dunmer remained & sadly successfully brought the young Bone-Thuxis to the Dres plantation. Later an Imperial, a Tharn, bought Bone at a auction & later told he was free, the young Argonian sadly had no idea where to go & doesn't know if his family was still alive, so the Tharn adopted him into House Tharn. This family of Argonians finally reunited years later.
      , Kenneth Clyde (Nord, Sorc), Selene Gray-Thuxis (Argonian, Nightblade), Urmanda (Orc, Warden)
      Some ESO history: I originally started from PS4 NA during June 10, 2015, I did reached CP 810+ on there. I eventually kinda got tired of paying PS+, so during February 4, 2019 I started moving to PC NA. Also CP: 810+. Nowadays I play ESO PC mostly, while PS4 is dust.

      Is that actually canon though? It's part of a fan-made mod, and contradicts official sources which say unicorns are native to Hircine's realm in Oblivion and only appear in Tamriel when they're brought there for hunts.

      It's labeled as Creation Club content (doesn't disable achievements for Skyrim SE), so it counts as canon content.

      Not sure how it's automatically canon if stuff like Umbra, Unicorn or even basic Scourge mace part are poorly though out mods without much recognition of tes established lore. It's not just "oupsies", those are just fast slapped along sketches. It wasn't checked properly before release, not we got it actually decently implemented.

      I'd look at them case by case, like if it's not directly contradictory sure, it's kinda canon now. Most are just cosmetic anyways. If it's basic laziness to even check established lore and mistakes slapped onto mistakes I'd be critical of it being a new canon. Especially if that's contradictory to actually main series plots or official books which are probably a priority material here.

      or a animated movie/series focus on the events of Tiber Septim.

      I totally would watch a movie/series focus on the events of Tiber Septim, but it has to be a "Last of Us" situation, not a "Halo" situation when it comes to TV series, haha.

      Creation Club is considered non-canon, especially since there's way too many of them that completely breaks the canon/lore.

      Wow, I mean, there are some terrible people and groups within the Dominion, but is that not true of every group and faction? I’m not a fan of the Nords and their king seems the least fit of any of the Alliance rulers to rule Tamriel (although I would argue that no one ruler has a right to do so, but I digress). Still, I wouldn’t wish destruction on all of Skyrim.

      Really, what I would wish, is to see an end to fighting to dominate one another and instead live-and-let-live, if not cooperation. Of course I realize that ideal is ultimately not to be, alas…
