      That would be a really good idea, I think one of the reasons skyrim was such a massive hit was because shouts were introduced into the series, if ES6 had stuff like ocean exploration it would really set it apart from other games. It would also give you a reason to invest in water breathing, and argonians would become a much more interesting race to play

    I have to correct you about the classification of the mosasaurs that you mentioned when talking about sea drakes. Mosasaurs, along with each and every marine reptile of the Mesozoic Era (along with flying reptiles, pterosaurs, as well) weren't dinosaurs at all. They were composed of several separate groups of reptiles. Mosasaurs specifically were, in fact, lizards. Their terrestrial ancestors followed the same evolutionary path that the ancestors of whales would follow several million years after the K-T extinction event, and the mosasaurs took over the niche that was left by the pliosaurs after they went extinct.

    Considering just how many whacky and crazy things exist in the elder scrolls universe theres no telling what kind of oceanic horrors could live on nirn, lots of untapped potential in elder scroll games oceans, it would be cool if you swam too far from the shore you'd get eaten by a sea monster or something.

    I remember playing Skyrim for a while and being scared of the water around Winterhold because I swore that there would be a sea monster. I couldn't fight in the water, the water around Winterhold is very deep and very wide, most of the time if you dive down for anything you won't find any chests or loot, everything lined up for a sea monster.
