5 Great Fan Theories About The Elder Scrolls 6 EXPLAINED & DISCUSSED

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.

Highrock and Hammerfell duo with the Illiac Bay serving as a navigable body of water filled with Naval fleets, pirates, and merchants would be such a massive hit

My favorite (far fetched) theory is that it might actually be good

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.

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 would happily play in any one of those story theories if they would just Get On With It!!!

Hammerfell pirates vs high elf navy. And the game takes place across the whole west coast including valenwood.

"Ordinary looking landscape" My brother in Akatosh, there's a giant crater in the middle of the landscape with a city in it, that's not all that ordinary.

[pyroAdapt]

I want it to be based in high rock. That land is gorgeous

[Imperial.Soldier]

Imagine if they put a black flag type dlc in which you can explore all the islands of the abecean sea

[theironfox]

Elder Scrolls 6 is already made. It is in a giant chest in the Bethesda basement. You have to access it through a secret tunnel in the Washington Underground.

I'd like to see them do something with Black Marsh or Elsweyr. I'd like a big Skooma quest too.

The Akaviri invasion idea is probably the most unlikely. The original concept for Skyrim was based around that idea and was scraped for what we got instead. The prediction of need a Hortator to go over to Akavir could be explained as that’s kinda what the Nerevarine is and he did go over there after the events of Morrowind.

[dissident]

The Towers Theory is the one that has the most support. Kirkbride's lore that is being referred to in that theory was canon lore in Morrowind, and the landmass shown in the teaser from years ago appears to be an area around Hammerfell and High Rock. As you've pointed out, most of the Towers have already been deactivated. The rest of the Thalmor's story in Skyrim supports it.

Would it be pretty blunt to make this the main quest of TES VI? Yes. I also think they wrote themselves into a corner for this theory.

What I think would be an interesting twist to it would be that the player is the last Shezarrine and an Ansei, and to defeat the Thalmor you would need to reunite the different aspects of Lorkhan into yourself.

Life long ES fan, at this point though even before Starfield, I was thinking with how long it has been since Skyrim the game will never live up to the hype and we will be let down. If you wait 16 or so years between titles you better 💯 knock it out of the park!!

[Mccpotinc]

Knowing Bethesda and Todd Howard it will probably be called “The Elder Scrolls VI: Skyrim II”

[charliegibson]

The timescale being a few decades before Skyrim would be so good, if it were set in valenwood you’d witness the thalmor genocide on the wood elves, or in hammerfell the character could be a spy/assassin, tasked with bringing down the red guard monarchy due to hammerfell helping the thalmor, letting them take the southern border as the best place for attacking Cyrodil from the north west. There’s so many ways they could take this that would be so interesting but I’m worried they’re gonna choose something really boring and typical due to the lackluster story’s and games they’ve released over the last few years following from Fallout 4 :/

[karloskarlinderstrom]

Huge mountains, rocky climate and dry environment. O look a tiny "wetland" area at one corner of the land 😲. Omg its black march 🤯

Here is my theory: If Bethsoft doesn't get their shit together it's gonna be shite.

[elainetamika]

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.

I just hope that the setting is not some generic fantasy setting like the last two games have been and I would love to see the home of the beast races more explored and see their history given that they have been on tamriel longer than the races of man and mer
