Bethesda Explain Why Morrowind is Present in Skyrim and What it Means for the Future

[News Portal]

When the mod community first discovered that the entire Tamriel landmass could be found outside the borders of [app=7846]The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim[/app], gamers began to wonder why Bethesda had gone to the effort to include such intricate details in the game, especially with many only visible by breaking through the limits of the game world.

Maybe you will find one of those fabled polarm weapons when you get there?

Yeah i realized just now that I mistyped what I said and was thinking. I haven't finished skyrim nor play a heck of a lot of it so I assume that I am to find Morrowind lands somewhere am I right?
EDIT: Now skyrim is north so Morrowind would be South-East, thats the opposite of the direction I have been exploring of Skyrim.

morrowind isnt in the game area, they just added in landmass outside of the game area so that if you climb a mountain to have a look you can kinda make things out (think the white tower is visible from memory...)

Pretty sure DICE only started a couple of days ago.

I could be wrong, as I don't follow these things. Or maybe you're The Doctor.

when it was first discovered kotaku got the same answer, its just now they asked someone "in person" at dice, so it got rehashed.

the first time was like november last year.
anyway, off to my tardis, i'm gunna go kill hitler!

the same was done in Oblivion. the same might have been done in morrowind but last i heard VVardenfel(the main game area) was an island situated in an inland sea, so not much interesting horizon there.

No much of a sea... it's more like a moat.
