Forgetful remake players escape the scope of Cyrodiil and explore Valenwood, Skyrim, and even Hammerfell, the rumored environment for Elder Scrolls VI

Elder Scrolls IV: Forgot to remake Located in Cyrodiil, the House of Empires in Tamriel. It's a fantasy environment full of enough tasks to even the most dedicated adventurer busy for hundreds of hours. But this did not stop some from detecting invisible obstacles to their borders, and even exploring areas beyond their scope.
On weekends, Redditor Gnoblinxd tells their journey through the Cyrodiil border and into Valenwoodthe southwestern province of Tamriel and the home of Bosmer or Wood Elves, and Elsweyr next door, an area on the online reel. gnoblinxd found that they were able to cross invisible obstacles to prevent this, from there, just jump over the river and along the cliff face in the classic Elder Scrolls Fashion.
“I did some exploration and was surprised to find the entire plot of the map was there, even if there was no detailed description,” Gnoblinxd said.
Valentwood itself is a barren area with no life, city, NPC or even trees. While exploring here, there are many graphics and environmental issues encountered by gnoblinxd, given that the forgotten developers remake never intended to explore it first. gnoblinxd tried to reach the Somerset Islands they thought were west of Valenwood, but fell outside the blank. Reloading from saves outside the Cyrodiil scope does not seem to work, forcing Gnoblinxd to restart within its boundaries.
If you want details, gnoblinxd uploads a video to show exactly how to find the discovery through this new border into Valentwood.
gnoblinxd did not avoid Elder Scrolls vi.
Where will Bethesda train in the next brand new Elder Scrolls game? All we want to continue is the game's 36-second announcement trailer, which shows towering mountains and picturesque coastlines overlooking the vast ocean. The popular theory is that sequels will relax players Hammerfell – Central environment of the Elder Scrolls 2: Dagger and Elder Scrolls Adventure: Redguard, and accessible locations on the online Elder Scrolls. With tropical forests, demanding mountains and scenic coastal cities, Hammerfell's portrayal in the previous Elder Scrolls game seems to fit in with the trailer, suggesting that we might once again explore the homes of Redguards.
To reach Hammerfell, Gnoblinxd passed the chasm in southern Valentwood and walked around the port city of Anvil (the westernmost city at Cyrodiil) and went straight to Hammerfell.
“After an hour of searching, I finally found the way to the other side of the northern border of Cyrodiil!” said gnoblinxd. “The area seems to be big. Much larger than the Warrenwood/Ellsville area. Land goes beyond rendering distance, so who knows how far it happened…it's likely not here, but I'm still interested.”
Now, this is where things get really interesting. Gnoblinxd tried to find the shoreline from the Elder Scrolls VI trailer, heading west to the area in the game, but eventually fell off the edge of the map (“I'm not dead, but now I'm trapped in the forgotten back room, lol.”).
Maybe gnoblinxd will eventually be able to find the area, or another player will manage it. Either way, the challenge can glimpse into the setup that might end up being one of the most anticipated video games of all time.
“I didn't use mods, failures or console commands, my game was totally vanilla,” Gnoblinxd insisted. “Oh, Hammerfre seems to be completely covered in the forest, and Valenwood has no trees at all, which is fun, lol.
“Anyway, it's time for me to do some exploration and may be updated later :)”
So they did, this time a photo of the trip to Elsweyr above. Elsweyr is of course the home of Khajiit, a playable bean and feline competition feature in all the major Elder Scrolls games to date.
What's great about starting from the border area is that from it you can see the world's tallest throat, the highest mountain range in Tamriel, and perhaps the most iconic location in the Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Here Dragonborn climbed seven thousand steps here to the ancient monastery of Gohosgar, where the order of the grizzly bears lived, and learned from them that shouting and talking to the dragon, Paarthurnax.
Yes, you can recreate the Skyrim in Forgotten, but you can’t actually go far enough to reach the throat of the world or see any signs of life.
This is so cool. If you recreate the edge of the map on Forget, you can see Skyrim's highest mountain, the throat of the world in the distance. This is not in the original game pic.twitter.com/oilovpeuxf

“Like Valenwood, Elsweyr is barren once you leave the border with Cyrodiil,” Gnoblinxd explained. “But unlike Valenwood, I think flora and fauna that lacks flora and fauna are more well-known. Unfortunately, I found neither cat nor cat, nor desert, and the most heartbreaking, without moon sugar:(
“I ran around looking for anything I was interested in and took some photos along the way. I decided to see how far you could go. Well, it turned out that you could go a long way. After reaching and surpassing the southern edge of Elsweyr, there seemed to be only endless oceans, so I decided to head east towards the black Marsh.
“And, oh boy, the Black Swamp is definitely…uh…unique, to be said.
gnoblinxd is still in mid-Journey outside of Cyrodiil, and may find more areas to explore famous landmarks on the horizon. They managed to find ways to reach the Morrowind and Skyrim sides of the border, but the pedestrian area did not extend. “So, unfortunately: (gnoblinxd said: “But after their initial post blew up Reddit (19,000 Upvotes and Counting), it seems that others might find themselves.
