The only reason I can think of they’d do sentinel over Hammerfell is if they’re going to try and turn it into a double meaning as both the city/role. Not a great reason, but eh.
Comment on Xbox is reportedly set to officially name The Elder Scrolls 6: Sentinel as soon as next month

Yes it’s a city there, but it’s the “safe” sounding word. I’m just bracing for the next elder scrolls to be like Starfield. Toxic positivity and writing right out of big corporate thinktanks.

That is actually exactly what I was thinking of. A game so bland and corporate that it gave away its soul. The title is proof. The name went from Dragon Age: Dreadwolf (A name all the fans were excited about and a direct successor to the massive cliffhanger) to Veilguard. You could just tell it went through so many committees and had to be approved by 16 layers of middle management.
Elder scrolls will be the same.
