Helgen Reborn I have never had issues with.

Civil War overhaul, last I played, made the civil war impossible to win, as all the guards in Dawnstar would attack you (if you've sided with the Empire) even when you're supposed to be giving them a letter. I'm sure it's fixed now.

Umm, I'm not sure how long ago this was or if the feature was always in, but did you consider wearing Stormcloak armor and the disguise feature?

Not that there weren't bugs. Once my siege of Riften was stuck on a stage of the quest that wasn't registering as complete. I also felt bad for the poor Khajiit caravans that would always get mobbed by your army, even if it meant ignoring the enemy Stormcloaks/Imperials...

Everyone uses stealth. The default mode of playing the game is stealth archer.

A few pages ago it was "default mode is boring power attack spam." I'd say stealth archery is more fun, though. Those special camera shots are quite satisfying.

However, I find nothing more satisfying than the flow of UNLIMITED POWAH from one's fingertips.

There is nothing as satisfying as well-earned a stealth blade kill. Eliminating an entire fortress as quickly as possible without alerting a soul... it's life affirming.

So what do you guys think the next Elder Scrolls game will/should revolve around?

I have a fun suggestion: The Black Star.

While in the course of Skyrim you have a massive civil war in the Empire, the return of dragons and the bastard Nazi elves being Nazi elf bastards, in my opinion the most world-changing event in the entire game is the repurposing of that daedric artifact by mortals.

Dragons are a big deal yeah, and the fate of a empire is in the civil war/thalmor conflict, but none of that compares to the simple fact that mortal magic literally just beat THE GODS. Well Daedra, but same difference really.

I think this could set off a wonderful "Rage Against the Heavens" arc where the mortal races all go "oh, we can beat the daedra lords now? Welp, lets go do that, those bastards had it coming."

[Putnam]

Oh, it's happened before. The Greg Keyes novels, for example.

Also, mortals have beaten Gods before. Heck, Azura in particular. Though I'm not sure if Vivec counts entirely as mortal.

Also, Daedra aren't all evil >:I

[WillowLuman]

Also, killing Alduin is kinda counts for that.

Didn't Azura say the Black Star would fix itself next time it decided to change hands?

[Mictlantecuhtli]

I still don't get why dragons were magically reintroduced to TES. I feel like all TES games will now have a 'Big bad' dragon or three, despite how they continue from here.

What exactly is the canon-status of that new MMO anyways?

[Xantalos]

Isn't it about when a Daedra Lord tried to invade about 1000 years back from Skyrim?

They never really removed them. They were always there, in a way. They planned on having dragons in Morrowind, but decided to not since they didn't think they could do them justice. Iirc.

Officially? Totally canon. On my side? OH HELL NO WHAT IS THAT HOW COULD YOU EVEN WHYYYYY

Actually, there are dragons in Morrowind. Some fly very high and the other ones near the ground are invisible.

Sir I do not know where you have obtained this picture from, but it certainly bears a striking resemblance to a good friend of mine. Although he probably does not know my name. I tried to adventure with him but he complained that I got in the way and talked, talked, talked.

I once imagined an expansion where M'aiq was the grandmaster of an order of seers/prophets who existed outside of time. The planned storyline was something of a big meta-reference to the fact that all PCs in Elder Scrolls games end up as heads of every guild/army/etc. at once, and that such " infinite champions" only occurred so often, and that M'aiq would eventually work to ensure you were the last.

[LeoLeonardoIII]

What I really love is that the "infinite champion" then basically sits around all day outside in that courtyard outside the pawn shops in Balmora (or the equivalent central-place-to-store-your-crap in TES games that aren't Morrowind), just standing there staring at the two NPCs who always walk by, until the save file gets deleted.
