The Whole of Tamriel?

Post » Sat Feb 16, 2013 10:42 am

I am not very knowledgeable when it comes to computers. Like a lot of ES fans, it has always been a dream to see the whole of Tamriel made available in the one game.

Is this what is happening in ES Online? Will the whole land mass area of Tamriel be in the game?

Can a future ES game come out on console which has the whole land mass area of Tamriel? Is this possible? Probably not for ps3 or xbox, but on the next gen console? Like, on the ps4 maybe?

I have always assumed that the whole land mass area of Tamriel couldn't be made for console because the size would be too much to fit on one disk. Too much MB or something?

However, what about through DLC? For example, the land area of Skyrim was put onto a single disk. Then the whole land area of Solsteim (sp?) could be accessed through DLC. Now I am assuming that the ps4 will have a lot more GB space for installing games as it's going to be more advanced than the ps3?

So, on the ps4 (and whatever the next gen xbox will be called?), could they release TES VI (eg High Rock) and then add all the other areas of Tamriel through DLC over the next year? Or would that be too hard to do for Bethesda from a programming point of view?

If they did it, it would be a dream come true! Could you imagine how long it would take to walk on foot at a leisurely pace from one side of the map to the other? lol

Provinces are best saved through individual games. Solsthiem was only an island, not a province.

While I think this would be cool, I think that they will stick to the current set-up of having individual provinces for games.

If they gave you all the provinces it would take away the urge to buy the next game.(not all of the urge but a little of it)

Well, what about after they have released all the games separately and covered all the provinces?

They could then make it possible so that you could use the one character to cover the whole of Tamriel and that he/she could complete all the individual games on the one game?
