Don't Thalmor comprise solely of Altmer? Who all (mostly) live on Summerset Isle. Or are any other races a part of their agenda?

Which actually...if it is Summerset isle in the next Elder Scrolls...and since not all Altmer (as far as I know) agree with the Thalmor

Anyone see another civil war Elder Scrolls

Yes, the same way squares comprise solely of rectangles.

The Thalmor could crush a rebellion unless the Psijics decided to help (which, considering the College questline in Skyrim, seems actually likely...).

They technically blackmailed the Wood Elves to join them, Khajiit might have joined them i dont remember.

While I appreciate the large number of locations on the Skyrim map, everything seemed really jammed together. I actually like traveling long distances between stuff as long as there are plentiful instant travel options like the carriage stops for when I don't feel like running. I'd support a larger map area to be able to spread things out with handsome scenery to ogle at in between while traveling.

What's the location of the next Elder Scrolls game? What next Elder Scrolls game? Don't you know they decided to sell their souls and kill the franchise by putting everything into the MMO basket?

IF there is a next real Elder Scrolls game its probably gonna be a long way off while they milk the "pay 40 dollars for this COOL SWORD" market...

That's not the case for, say, the Final Fantasy franchise. They have a pair of MMOs but still dole out single-player titles (however disappointing they might be).

Sigh... people keep forgetting Bethesda the studio did not make the MMO. That was Zenimax Online. The MMO was published by Bethesda the publisher, which I guess is where people get the confusion from. Also, the MMO is ok, it's main fault is being too expensive.

Ugh I KNOW. I played FFXIII: Lightning Does Some Stuff Again and it was... mediocre in the extreme.

Yep, they "brought the moons back", so the Khajit signed on.  Also, there are definitely more than a few Altmer exiles in the Empire, people who were exiled by decree, fled due to disagreeing with the Thalmor's methods and reactionary policies, or people who just lost big in some power struggle.  You can actually find books by one of them in Skyrim, who was particularly vocal in their claims that the Thalmor were a threat to the Empire back before the big war, though he ascribes everything from mundane assassinations to the eruption of Red Mountain to their sinister plots.

I don't know, I sorta agree that they're going to try to squeeze as much as they can out of the ESO, especially as (from what I understand) it hasn't really lived up to expectations business wise. I know that they're different studios but I'm sure they get a cut of the profits. Releasing another Elder Scrolls game would basically make ESO pretty much forgotten, so I doubt we'll get one until mid way through this current gen cycle once everyone has finally moved over to Xbone and PS4.

I'm just really, really hoping/praying/sacrificingtodarkgods that they don't try to jam multiplayer into the next Elder Scrolls game.

I think they'll keep their usual release schedule, which tends to be 4 years after the last game. I think that the studio has stated they are against multiplayer (which they actually tried in Battlespire) before.

That'd be less than a year ago, which I feel might be a bit soon, especially as a lot of people haven't made the jump onto next-gen consoles. I could imagine 5-6 years, although perhaps a new Fallout will come out sooner.

It could be that they're hoping they will be the thing that brings people onto new consoles though, which would probably get them a lot of influence with Microsoft/Sony.

[Vendayn]

Bethesda didn't make ESO and had very little part in it.

They in fact didn't support it or want it made at all. Probably want it to fail.

Zenimax and Bethesda may not be on good terms either in the background. So hopefully it works out for Bethesda.

Their last game was Skyrim. Fallout 4 should be launching either late this year or, more likely, next year. Probably will be announced this Quakecon. Then on... 2018/2019 we'll get the next TES.
