Foreshadowing/Red Herring. It claims that it is highly likely that the Dovakin is the player of Oblivion and what not. Perhaps I am simply misreading what is being said, but I would like to put into play a big... No. No its not highly likely. The player is of Oblivion might have their hands full being Sheogorath and what not.... If it is the case A) It will have to be asked, why is the player back to level 1? However another thing continuity will demand. Ability to access the Shivering Isles or some sort of explanation as to why the player cannot. B) There will have to be no Sheogorath Shrine... or we will have to once again hear Haskil say \\\"Praying to yourself, eh?\\\" Or some sort of early-game Lore dance explaining why, although this is the player of Elder Scrolls IV but they are no longer Sheogorath. All of which will seem silly and desperate.

I mean, Im sorry if I sound like a jerk, but to suggest such a thing is \\\"Highly likely\\\" seems silly to me. I mean, there isn\\\'t even a firm promise that this Dovakin is the player (Assuming the guy with the sheild fighting the dragon was Dovakin, they looked human. At least, humaniod. Not Argonian or Kajhit. It would be a bit upsetting to me, to see Elder Scrolls limit races like that.) I mean, for all we know the Dovakin will be the equivalent of Martin, and we will be their faithfull tag-along hero. Or the player is Dovakin. Who knows. All in all I think that we should only post what we know, rather than speculate and present that speculation as \\\"Highly likely.\\\"
