    Not sure how I feel about a Skyrim setting. And no matter how cool Max von Sydow is, I hope they don't use celebrity voice-actors as their chief selling point as they did with Oblivion.

    That said.. I came. Twice, soon as I started considering who "they" might be.
    When Adam delved and Eve span, Who was then the gentleman? From the beginning all men by nature were created alike, and our bondage or servitude came in by the unjust oppression of naughty men. For if God would have had any bondsmen from the beginning, he would have appointed who should be bound, and who free. And therefore I exhort you to consider that now the time is come, appointed to us by God, in which ye may (if ye will) cast off the yoke of bondage, and recover liberty. - John Ball

    Oh my God, this is...this is unbelievable .....ME3 and TES V trailers in the same day! Wow...

    Edit:
    So when the dragons finally appear in a TES game they appear as villains.
    Skyrim is no surprise...they had that rumour going since Fallout 3 was released as far as I remember.
    I think this might be a Beowulf esque, viking-action-heavy story.
    Can't wait.

    There was a dragon in oblivion. They keep the Demon Princes locked out of the world. So they wouldn't be classed as villians.

    Correction.

    Seriously though, I don't think that counts. This kind of knowledge might add some unwanted points to my geek/nerd score, but that dragon was supposed to be an avatar of the chief Cyrodrillic deity, Akatosh.
    The real dragons were the Akarvirs who live across the ocean to Tamerial's East. And they are supposed to be extinct, eaten up by the snake people, who invaded Tamerial during the reign of Tiber Septim.
    The only surviving Dragon in Oblivion's world is Tosh Raka, who is a 'Tiger-Dragon'.....
    I don't think I ought to go on....here's link to clear things up....Akavir

    I just realized while linking the page, that the Akavir banner is exactly like the logo for TES V. IMO this is proof enough that the Akavirs have invaded Tamerial in TES V.

    The leader of the Tiger-men turned himself into a dragon-like form. And they call him a Tiger-dragon. And I believe that part of the Akaviri influence on the Cyrodiilic Empire was that it used an Akavir dragon emblem as it's coat of arms.

    That was Martin becoming the avatar of Akatosh, the great dragon. All of that stuff about dragons blood, dragon born, and the symbol on the empires banner are from (or are mean't to represent) Akatosh.

    I'm guessing that means most of the world will be covered in snow and populated with 6ft blonds? heh heh.
