  • In today's video, we discuss 5 great, fun and thought provoking fan theories regarding the elder scrolls 6. We discuss these theories and then decide how probable they are in terms of coming true. The first theory has to do with the game taking place in the Tamriel Province of Black Marsh. The second theory decrees that the player will not be the center of attention for the plot line, and instead, will take part and watch the action unfold. The third theory suggests that the game could be a prequel, even going a step further and saying it could take place before any of the current elder scrolls games. The forth theory describes that Morrowind might have hinted at the plotline for the next game. And the fifth and final theory says that the Towers Theory an the Thalmor will be the main plot and antagonists for this elder scrolls game.

    The Nerevarine going to Akaviri after Morrowind sounds like what that Ald'run Priest was hinting at. Not only is the Nerevarine a idol hero in Morrowind but they were responsible for uniting the Ashland tribes and the great houses and defeating Dagoth Ur. So they would definitely be chosen to serve as a mediator.
    Also Todd Howard mentioned how originally Alduin wasn't the Antagonist of Skyrim but one of the Septim Emperors who lead a doomed expedition to Akaviri, he would return to Tamriel leading an Army of Dragons. So it fits with the whole Akaviri Plot.

    I think having the game take place in *a* province is unnecessarily limited. I'd like to see maybe two whole provinces, one controlled by the Aldmeri and one controlled by the Empire, with some independent groups in the middle. It could be very cool to cross a border and enter a completely different culture, not just a different biome.
    Admittedly, Bethesda is also sort of limited, so them going for the monoculture single province route is also possible.

    • @ABardsBallad

      I agree with you, I think at this point with ESO and how the series has progressed, they need to jump up to potentially 2 or more provinces to really continue scaling

    I'm dreading what's going to get cut next for streamlining. Tamriel as a setting shrinks everytime they want to portray something but decide its just a bit too tricky to do right. Or if continuing the story of an area would require them to actually make a point.
    My prediction for the civil war is Ulfric wins and is immediately overcome by the empire, resetting to the status quo and leaving the empire in no position to do anything but fight the dominion to a drawn out quagmire. Nothing changes, everything is worse, classic bethesda ending.

    The throat of the world is Skyrim's "tower". The thalmor helped facilitate the return of the dragons to deactivate that tower's stone, which I believe, they succeeded at.
    The last 3 elder scrolls games have all had cataclysmic events at the "towers": Red Mountain, White Gold Tower, and High Hrothgar, presumably deactivating these stones and their power, because its not just the Thalmor who want Mundus destroyed, it's ultimately the will of the Daedra Lords who are manipulating mortals and lower beings into self destruction.

      An astute observation, I am beginning to think that this could be a central theme (or one of them) in the next game
      It would make a lot of sense lore wise, because that is the Thalmor's end-game; to become as Gods, and upending the Towers makes their apotheosis very likely, or it could wipe them all out instantly like the fate of the Dwemer ....
      I love this idea!!

    To me the best theory is the Akaviri Invasion + a prequel. There soo much room to work into it. At same time it could be a new oportunity for them to polish even more their faction/base builing engine, wich seems what they are putting in their flagship RPG's since Fallout 4. However i don't have many hopes they will do anything very complex besides the boring sporadic base defense, if it get implemented at all.

    10 to 1 fan theories will be infinitely superior to the actual game. Skyrim being set 200 years later was a huge mistake. Remember Oblivion ended with a succession crisis looming after Martin's death. That could have told a fantastic narrative. You could even still have the thalmor and civic unrest as a consequence of Dagon's actions. If anyone seen the Patrician's Oblivion retrospective this would tie directly to his Dagon therory as being his true goal. The destruction and revolution his invasion caused. Remember he his daedric prince of both not just in destroying things. They pushed the princes far too much in the devilish nature making them much less interesting than they were in Morrowind or Daggerfall. Skyrim also disappointed me by not following up on the Shivering Isles expansion. We really should have gotten a Jyaggilag quest. Elder Scrolls 6 will have no skills and no dialogue options if Fallout 4 and Starfield are any indicator (they are.)

    The teaser is more of a marketing tool than an actual show of what the game may be. The theory that the player will not assume the leading (tragic) role based on his link to nirn fate is shallow, there not many elder scroll games to say there will be a pattern, like 1 god hero / 1 auxiliar hero / 1 god hero... and soo on. Also the Hero of Kvatch is *SPOILER* the Mad God, soo in a way his existence is tied to the balance of power in the Deadra realms and the continuation of the Mad God works, that are also in a way part of the balance in Nirn.

    They’re going to do half of hammerfell but they’ll stretch it out with a lot of nothing in between the cities so it seems “to scale” or we’ll get full hammerfell but a lot of cities will have been “destroyed” in the war. Orsinium and 1 city in high rock will be the DLC. MAYBE we’ll get 1 island with like 1 Sload on it. You’ll hear in game rumors of an akaviri landing in Morrowind or black marsh but that’s it. Prepare to be wildly disappointed and if you were a stormcloak fan prepare for Ulfric to get dragged, he will either have been crushed like a nothing burger and given passing mention or exiled in hammerfell where he’ll be a drunk and demeaned. Dragon shouts/sword singing for sure and very cheesy. The thalmor/empire war will not have started and you’ll probably have to convince one or both factions in Hammerfell to give either Great War faction support. DLC will be about rebuilding orsinium and some love or orphan who is the real heir type quest in high rock. There are a few pintrist accounts that are associated with designers someone found and posted to Reddit. It not only predicted some DLC for another game they did, but starfield and now hammerfell, it’s mostly all north and Central African architecture they’ve pinned to the account.

Let’s count from Morrowind, there’s no elder scrolls game with definitely awful gameplay and boring story so I would rather say it will be hard to make it that bad

The emperor sent you there to fullfill the prophecy as the result ended with the living gods losing their power ergo more power and control to the empire......anyway ... On your journey through the game you become named hortator ... Basically a 'neutral' (ish) spokesman and spiritual leader for the great houses and there people.... And then in the game of oblivion you hear rumors that the neverine has indeed gone on an expedition to akavir...but hasn't been heard from scince...
    Cool fact: TES 5 was originally going to be set in akavir.. and be focused around an emperor who tryed to take it years ago and failed.. but has come back mysteriously.

      ​@@chillievansThat "dragon-born and far-star-marked" line in the prophecy could just be there to point out that the Nerevarine was born "under the red dragon banner of the Empire" (e.g., in a province other than Morrowind far away from Vvardenfell).
      I could see them being Dragonborn, or perhaps even an illegitimate Septim like Martin, but it seems unlikely (imo). The Nerevarine being a Dragonborn isn't brought up again aside from that one line, and if they were Dragonborn it would've been brought up again in some way or form -- either through the Nerevarine having a prophetic dream/vision, or other characters such as Caius Cosades, Nibani Maesa, or Wulf bringing it up
