>>3999157 >Thalmor will be gone with no mention of them at all No way they get rid of the one easy to write big bad evil organization they've been able to introduce into the series. If the memory of Oblivion wasn't so fresh in people's minds from the re-release I could believe they might try to get away with replacing them with another daedric invasion, but as things stand there's no way in hell they get rid of the Thalmor, they're too much of a convenient plot-device.
They most certainly will pull off a 'somehow, Lord Naarifin returned' and have him be the BBEG and that will basically be the whole plot. They've been setting it up since Blades. I just hope they don't ruin Ada-Mantia by turning it into a plot device for Todd's shitty little power fantasy.

>>3999185 >Naarifin Don't remind me of this bullshit. The card game turning a Thalmor into a daedra worshiper was so fucking stupid.

>>3999185 I do think the Thalmor and the civil war and the dragons will just be ignored. Bethesda tends to do that with their old games. They wanted to ignore Morrowind lore so hard that they nuked the province in Skyrim.
>>3999193 >They wanted to ignore Morrowind lore so hard that they nuked the province in Skyrim Dragonborn sucked. It did not feel like Morrowind at all.

>>3999193 You realize Kirkbride came up with the Red Year, right? He also wanted Valenwood and Elsweyr to be post-apocalyptic.
>>3999218 You realize the Red Year first appeared in the Greg Keyes novels in 2009, not Dragonborn, right?
>>3999261 Pro tip: the canon for games is always the original games themselves. No shitty spin-offs, no retarded tie-in books, no exogenous "lore bible", and certainly not forum posts. Pro tip 2: when the canon for a series of games becomes retarded, it is up to the individual to decide the point at which new entries are no longer canon. Hope this helps!

>>3999262 ...so you cannot, in fact, counter the fact Kirkbride came up with the Red Year, then? Concession accepted.
