Postpone the game until 2020 at the soonest giving Bethesda time to ensure the quality of the game is at optimal capacity; i.e. AI density, quest line content, graphics, physics, and most importantly overall immersive quality. Cannot begin to even explain how many times I have been disappointed by the lackluster animations and behaviorisms in Skyrim.

If need be focus on a map no larger than Skyrim, but more populace density and and immersive qualities.

Perhaps some of the most important aspects to ensure in the game: varying seasonal climates (PLEASE!), ability to jump while sprinting, seamless mobility/interactive interface, and of course greater effort on the guilds quest lines.

On a side note, the ME series is by far one of my all rime favorite game series (second only to TES of course), Even though it is highly unlikely it would be AMAZING if Bethesda teamed up with Bioware to create the next installment of TES games. The size and lore of Skyrim mixed in with the story line quality and character centered storyline of Mass Effect 2, but not 3.

If i happened to miss anything please repost.

Note: ignore the rabble about dragon mounts, had enough dragons nosedive into a mountain in Skyrim and crash the game already.

I would also add that there have to be jobs for the player in the next game! For example:

Woodcutter: Cutting down any tree using axes and Dwemer Chainsaws and elaborating them to planks, sticks, firewood etc. and then selling them or keeping them for yourself in order to craft items or build a home, base, traps and so on.Fisherman: The name speaks for itself, though it would be cool if in order to find bigger fish you could take a boat and go to the open sea and face a seamonster or two. They should add tools for fishing, like nets, spears, harpoons etc.Hunter: Again, it is pretty obvious. They should add more meaning to the hunting system though, for example a wider variety of goods you can obtain from your prey such as skin, hide, meat, teeth, bones, claws etc. The rarest the good, the higher the price point. Also, they should add an animal tracking system, using footprints, some kind of spell, hounds and more.Gladiator: Bring back the Arena! They should pretty much take the arena from Oblivion and improve it with bigger battles and other stuff.Bounty Hunter: What better than hunting down criminals? The best thing though would be to not always having to kill the target or doing so resulting to failure and a loss of reputation. Some targets should just be left unconcious or captured and brought back in chains. You should also have to track them down asking locals, bribing or forcing inn owners to speak and so on.Miner: Imagine creating new caves Minecraft-style and collecting minerals, finding new artifacts and then selling or using them. It would be awesome if you could accidentally dig into a dungeon. This though should have to be controlled so that the game would not be broken too bad.(Still, it'be pretty awesome to make your own tunnel system to travel the land with underground minecarts).Shop Director: This is kind of complicate but would be a great addition to the game. What if you could make your own chain of stores spread throught the land? You should still have to pay to buy stuff from your stores, but in a discount price, and you should be able to buy other stores or build your own. It would also be great to be able to set imports and exports of goods for your store or just leave the AI do it. And, you would have to hire NPC's to work at your store.

I don't have much time left so here's a list of other jobs you could be able to do, if anyone feels like it, feel free to expand and/or explain it:
