SKYRIMLE World Map - Skyrim Hold Borders

[Smile44]

I'm surprised this doesn't come up in the searches World Map - Skyrim Hold Borders. It's on gems "Same as "A Quality World Map - With Roads" but it adds the borders to each hold (helpful for when you have a bounty on your head)"

 

Worth consideration I think.

I've seen this before and for me it doesn't really add anything into the game besides helping you avoid bounties which could be considered cheating in the right light. It might also help those who have faction mods installed. From my point of view, it's good for personal use but not for STEP.

I understand your point as it doesn't add a great deal into the game but it is lore friendly and more realistic. That said having a big 3D map that you can zoom around on isn't remotely lore friendly so it's all moot, really.

I don't see how it isn't lore friendly. Who wouldn't want to know the hold borders in skyrim? We all know, and need to know, the different county/city/state/country borders in our life.

 

First thing that came to mind when I saw this was the short movie in Lord of the Rings where the show the overview of whats happening. And you can clearly see the borders for the different lands.

 

I think it definitely adds a layer of immersion.

Ya i find it more realistic too. As in Real life you see borders on world maps. why woulden't you see that in skyrim?

I didn't have an opinion on this at first. However, ^they bring up excellent points and I'm inclined to agree with them.

I like the concept a lot, but none of those designs do it for me. I guess I like "simplified" the best, but it's a little bit too exaggerated, a thinner line with a faint glow/outline would be best IMO.

The border lines are not that obvious to see. They are big though but also faded (in game at least). This is otherwise exactly the same map as recommended in STEP. With a couple of minor ini tweaks you can get rid of the clouds and have full 360 rotation.
