It can be done. The Dragonborn is again protagonist you import saves and choices from Skyrim (like Witcher 3 did). The faction system works like Dragon Age Inquisition, you fight directly but also do political stuff and judge people. Take decisions during wars and battles with relative consequences. During the game general Tullius dies in battle and the Dragonborn is chosen to be general of the 4th legion, from there you start to build more and more armies to the point where you are enough powerful to defeat all the enemies of the Empire and become Emperor.

I hope the next Elder Scrolls game will focus on the 2nd great war and that our main character isn't some hero of legend but a regular guy/gal who is kinda thrust into the midst like in Oblivion. Oh and I hope that the Dovakhiin plays some role like he gathers an army of dragons and fucks the Thalmor up royally while we playthrough the war helping the empire and maybe a little twist as an expansion like the Dwemer returning or something.

I think the Thalmor's ultimate goal is to tear down the Towers to collapse Mundus so they can reascend to god-hood/immortality. Not only could they stick it to Tiber Septim by destroying his Empire and his strength through worship, but can stick it to Lorkhan by alt+F4'ing Nirn. They got rid of their tower via the Oblivion Crisis (Crystal Tower was an inside job), The IC tower is disabled since its stone, the amulet of kings, is gone. The Red Mountain is gone due to self-destruction. The Redguard's tower that sank into the ocean... cant remember the name, and lastly the Brass tower (Anumidium) is MIA so I think its safe to say it is disabled due to interdimential traval/state. Whats left is The Ada-Mantia, Throat of the world, Green-Sap (probably the Graht-Oak city) which the Thalmor now have access, if not control over, and Lastly Orichalc which is still unexplained. 5/9 towers are either destroyed or likely disabled, I'd say the Thalmor are well on their way. They want Skyrim to kill themselves so they can sweep in to destroy the throat of the world, its stone, or sever its connection. They wanted Hammerfell land because they want a launching point into High Rock to move on Ada-Mantia and Orichalc. They have and can destroy the Green-Sap whenever they want (risking a wildhunt however). While most in the Dominion my see it purely as payback for Tiber Septims ruthless take over of summerset, I think its much much more than that. Sure the Altmer can be vindictive but I don't think culturally they allow petty revenge to dictate action like Humanity does. They firmly believe themselves superior to all other races, not just in baser things but in what they believe is their stolen divinity. I think the true powers of the Altermer actively seek to prove it.

Only thing id disagree on is the Talos worship ban. While sure, the Dominion probably is sore about getting their ass kicked by Talos (glory to him), the real reason they wanted it banned wasnt just because of that. The elves believe themselves to be divine beings, that they need to destroy Tamriel so they can escape their mortal bodies and return to the Adra they believe themselves to be the children of. For them it is blasphemous for a creature lower than them (a human) to be consider a God. Talos worship being banned isnt necessarily because of what he did while alive, but because he was a human now being worshipped as a God when only they should be consider beings that can ascend to Godhood.

Dragonborn should conquer tamriel with dragons, imperial and stormcloaks, cut a deal with many daedric lords to promise them certain areas and get the beast races to back him too, having the vampires and werewolves promised areas where they are free to feed on people and animals( summerset isles ) . If the daedra cross him just restore jiggylag to full and have him help you bring order to this world.

I like the Empire, but it's a mess. It's in decline, and facing a Rebellion in Skyrim. But the Thalmor are the real enemy. Ulfric Stormcloak is only helping them, by destorying the Empire's Legions. Men, and Women who could have held back the Thalmor. Yes, Talos Worship is banned, but it's not enforced. Yes, the Empire is weak. But how are you helping Skyrim by taking it away from the Empire, then throwing that Country at the Thalmor? Wouldn't be wiser to play along with the Empire for now. Then when the 2nd Great War begins. Ylu unleash all that furry on the real enemys? Ulfric Stormcloak is only hurtting the best change to defeat the thalmor by rebelling against the Empire. The weaker the Empire, the likely hood of a Ultimate Thalmor Victory. This is unacceptable.

Imperial Knowledge Michael Kirkbride, although not working with Bethesda anymore, still releases a lot of content every now and then, and it seems like most games of the series had their themes planned several years ago. There are several Towers, literal or otherwise, who cosmologically keep Mundus as it is. They are each powered by a Stone, which may not be a literal stone, sometimes being a magical object or even a person. The First Tower to be known is Adamantia, known for being created by the Aedra as a place to discuss the punish they'd give Lorkhan. It's of note that Convention happened outside of Aurbic time, and this temporal anomaly is the Stone. Adamantia made time go linear. The second known Tower was created shortly afterwards, Red Mountain itself. It's Stone is the Heart of Lorkhan, and it served the purpose of stopping the continuous draining of power on the Aedra, stabilizing Mundus. It is currently considered to have been deactivated. "Snow-Throat" was shouted into existence by Kyne and mankind was shouted into it. It's Stone is not named, but it's described as "kingless, sundered and bleeding", which indicates that it's Stone is the people of Skyrim, or rather, the spirit of mankind. Orichalc was a Tower in Yokuda, and it's Stone apparently was a sword. It is not clear if the pankratosword is a magical technique or the literal sword that powered the Tower, but it's deactivation caused Yokuda to sink. White-Gold Tower is the classic example, with Chim-El Adabal, the main stone in the Amulet of Kings, being it's Stone. It's important to note that this Tower mimicks Adamantia in shape and size, and the entire Imperial City is designed to mimic the Aurbis. It is not clear if it's active or not. Crystal-like-Law was in Alinor, and it was destroyed in the Oblivion Crisis if Im not mistaken. It's Stone was "a person". There's still "Tree-Sap", which probably is in Valenwood, and Walk-Brass, the OG Numidium, which may or may not be active. If the Thalmor destroy them all, the rules of the Dawn Era apply, time becomes one continuous "Dragon Break" of sorts, and they'll be able to eliminate mankind, mortality and Lorkhan himself from the realm of possibility, reverting the creation of Mundus and turning them into et'Ada again. Further inspection to MK's work indicates that the Thalmor failed and somehow fucked up the plan or did not understand something about the cosmos.
