I think the next game will be located in another country or perhaps in the past. Either way only the writers know the true story behind the game (we can only speculate on events)

The Arisen's death in game could be a paradox perhaps? Maybe they will work with better story writers in the next game. Dragon's Dogma is a great game in its own right, but could be so much more.

I cant wait to play the next one.
