Skyrim epic exploration [ The edge of the world in Sovngarde ]

[@TheHipisterDeer]

So is this the famous cloud district that I have been hearing about?

[@emmarina3525]

The cloud district is actually where Dragonsreach is, Nazeem basically considers the dragonborn trash because he works with the Jarl and owns a farm in Whiterun

There's actually a way easier and WAY shorter way to get there. Go straight to the Hall Of Valor, but stop at the bony bridge. From there, slowly descend down into the river. Then, swim straight right of the waterway, and stay in that direction. From then on, keep swimming straight, and in little than 5-10min, you'll quickly reach the island! You're welcome, imperials!

[@TXFDA]

"Plays Skyrim - Spends time finding exploits" Sounds about like me in Skyrim and Fallout. I enjoy finding glitches, bugs, and exploits in Bethesda games for some reason. Like, I spent ages exploring once I found out how to jump over the Whiterun wall and end up in the low-detail world. Went over to Oblivion's area and found the tower and whatnot. Was fun. I've also used a book-dupping glitch to get an extra copy of some one-of-a-kind quest book since I'd have to turn it in and lose it once I was done. I was all into collecting books, and I didn't want to lose it. As long as it's not game-breaking, causing crashes and keeping me from finishing things, then I don't mind bugs. I actually enjoy them. Even things like infinite money glitches. It's not hurting anyone being there, so why not. If someone wants to glitch themselves infinite money, let 'em.

[@zegirdor]

But you don't need to break Buggesda games. They break themselves.

[@juliejay5436]

Wouldn't mind having an infinite money glitch in real life... Cool!

[@DuhNoU]

[@potbellypig346]

i once held the analog stick in place with a hair elastic to make myself continue walking forward when i was there... if u look far in the distance, there are more towers, and it takes hours and hours to get there. i left myself walking overnight and walked so far that sovngarde disappeared in the distance. then i walked all the way back. i dont think it ever ends.

[@Maeve_Rose]

internet tough guy its how the gamebryo engine works. when you reach the edge of the "map" it continues to repeat flat blank tiles for you to go into.

[@TheDarkSideOfSnake]

I love this type of stuff. I've always been fascinated with what lies beyond the map's boundaries in a game.

How to destroy the game

[@ILCOVERU]

Poor maltub3. You're playing on the PC and you don't know the tcl command. Using it would've saved you hours of work XD

[@nofearofwater]

Real explorers don't use cheats

[@gsurfer04]

[@jeandupont2932]

Bugthesda :D Nice vid dude, I'll try it soon :)

[@perkitaseaman3290]

So this is the end of the world in Skyrim that I've been hearing about

[@etherraichu]

i did this a while ago, but stayed in the water. its weird. The black towers are insubstantial completely. But there seem to be several "walls" surrounding everything I know I found at least three layers of them. Still not as fun as Morrowind though. Its ocean went on forever, every other cell spawning a massive amount of dreugh or slaughterjerkfish

[@rpblue3845]

If u go all the way south to cyrodill u can see the dirt is in same shape as it was in oblivion and u can even see the white gold tower

[@etherraichu]

+RP blue You can see three gray-ish pillars making up white-gold tower. But if you get too close to them they disaappear. just long distance textures. is still neat though.

[@eschelar]

That last bit was like Cube! nicely done.

[@lancegeorge71]

Using tcl works great as well maybe not for consoles though

[@Dumbrarere]

For those who attempt or have attempted this and fail/failed, I just want to point out that this was fixed in one of the DLCs, Dragonborn I believe.

[@darclordfilms1]

I remember zones like this in games. I like how in wow every once in a while you get the one huge piece of land that is fully textured and you are like WTF is going on.

[@vorenna]

I really laughted at 2:53, that's the perfect description about the situation :)

[@VashStampede81]

I found this long ago. You can get all the way to Whiterun by running up the hill to the right of the entrance, exiting through the small hole at the top of the ridge, then going left to the ocean once you make it across to the next mountain range. Swim all the way out to the ocean to the very bottom of the playable map,until you glitch into the sky on some sort of weird sky tile that is clear and square. Then use the invisible squares that float above the water to run all the way west till you are at the center of the map. Coincidentally when running on the invisible squares, if you fall in the water you will reset to the top of the playable game area. Whiterun is merely a collection of lit up night time windows on the PS3, and is floating inside the ocean next to a large black tower that you can get to the top of by going underneath, then glitching to the top. Just keep checking your map as it still works and you should have no trouble getting around. I also wanted to challenge everyone in the game who kept telling me I could only enter or leave on the dragon and this is how I originally found it, lol.

[@CiprianHanga]

I never seen such obsession since the GTA3's search of the Ghost Town. Getting there was like an achievement in itself.

[@NickAB1]

Just goes to show you, skyrim is so great they even added stuff to areas players are forbidden to go to.

[@samirimtiaz4767]

That would actually make for one epic easter egg. "You took the effort to circumvent the game physics and go into areas that most would assume to be out of boundaries so here's a chest with a ridiculously powerful armor/weapon as your prize."

[@gorillafoam]

If anyone was wondering, the reason they put this in is so that on the map you would see some terrain outside of the parts where you're supposed to go. Because otherwise you'd just see a floating island on the map. And they were bored.

[@_Brohan]

I wish someone would re-do this and upload a longer video now that it's 2017. I'm surprised no one else has done this

[@KatieDoyleWrites]

Wow. I went off the edge of the map to the south. You eventually run into the edge of the map and fall into the ocean, where you can swim for forever beneath the mountains of glass but never actually get back onto land. It just turns into glass when you get close, and you go under it. I wonder why all that land is there?

[@guilhermecosta27]

So that is the place that Gandalf told Pippin about. You know, the long-shores-after-death

[@FxzzzzPaper]

unifieddynasty....you are a genius for coming up with that jock :D

[@w0lffang]

Skyrim and Cyrodill, Hammerfel, Eslwyre, blackmarsh, high rock and technically morrowind are all one big continent island called Tamriel. The planet is named Nirn, there is a book [Songs of the Return] in Skyrim that tells of the Nords comming by boat from an island far to the north called Atmora and landing on Skyrims coast. I hope that helps answer your question.

This is what gamers love: play without the rules go out of boundaries. I love when it is possible to find some things like this those high "buildings" look so impressive a lot more scary than any of the dragons or ulfric stormcloak

[@Anbutou]

Reminds me of the awesome times I had in WoW classic, getting to places you shouldn't be able to reach and having a blast doing so.

[@PremierMilenkov]

I don't know if I'm alone with this, but seeing this kind of stuff (getting out of maps in video games, especially these wide-open sandbox types) always invokes some kind of weird, matrix-esque existential dread in me. It's a silly thought of course, and one probably stemming from the over-abundance of free time on my hands, but just the idea of some messed up weirdness like this beyond the boundaries of the world...I know I'm thinking about it too hard, but what if hyperspace looks like this..?

[@M4RC05V1N1C1U5]

The CODE always create its own Heaven...

[@nachoman7864]

I hope there is a game where you can play and do quests throughout all of tamriel, that would be epic

[@JotalianLeague]

Maybe the pillars at 3:00 is an Inception reference? From when they are at the beach and they destroy huge buildings by knocking down the sand castle?

[@Kingopersia]

damn right! even the area that wasn't supposed to be visited is beautiful

[@Phobophage901]

Possibly a very basic layout for the eternal hunting grounds area of Hircine? Heard they're adding something like that along with Morrowind in the next DLC, or maybe another after that.

[@ForzaEnforcer]

I get that too sometimes, once I followed a video on how to get out of the map in Need for Speed Carbon, and I spent about half an hour driving in air at night with just a black void below me, then I found an unfinished canyon road, it was really creepy.

[@CrazyAmericanChick]

Guess they used the place to mess with textures and stuff? Or they might have been doing something and got lazy. I don't know, but it's cool!

[@Zirc0nius]

There was one spot in oblivion where you could go to skyrim, but it was just a closed off area with some trolls

[@AJFreeway]

The original Elder Scrolls games were like this. Randomly-generated territory with tens of thousands of square miles to walk.

[@davidquezada50]

people who like doing this will love breath of the wild exploring is so fun wish games added more exploring then just action

[@Heroinator]

you can do this outside of the main quest-line they forgot to barrier off a large open area similar to that far southwest which is empty except for some asset changes

[@pirosith]

Very cool! So I'm guess this was some sort of a practice area while they were making the game? Great music choice too!

[@Phaota]

Sure is a lot of waste landmass outside the mountains in that area. Reminds me of all the empty areas around the Skyrim itself, past the mountains. Of course, some of those locations have been used now with DLC addons.

[@jamesoncroft2980]

That is truly amazing. How did you find the wormhole?

[@kingfang2945]

What if way out there there was a chest that contained the last pink gem thingy. That would suck.

[@brad_359]

Could this be where the infamous Devolopers Room is located

[@navaneethvarma]

would like to add that cyrodill, hammerfel etc are called provinces in the continent of tamriel. There is no sort of country in skyrim.(province=country basically). other continents include atmora, akavir, yokuda(destroyed) and Pyandonea. all the info u need is in skyrim wiki.

[@jamesfitzburg6817]

Wow thats really cool. Its amazing how big the game is when you go past the restricted part. I wonder why they have this much land beyond the restriction. Anyone know? Is it some develepor technique? Or were they going to make the game that much bigger and then they were like, "oh shit, its already huge!!!"

[@TedziVideo]

I wonder if some of these unused lands get used in any future DLC, if there are going to be DLC's.

[@CaliforniaWaffle]

Hammer fell

[@steveparkins7451]

At 4:08 I thought those lines in the backround would spell something out

[@DoctorPCfin]

I think they made all this because there is the risk of being thrown to air by shout or dragon or etc, and they do not wanty to immersion be broken so they developed terrain that seems bad from close, but from further it gives feel of Skyrim being province of Tamriel, not its own world.

[@MGSVxBreakpoint]

That's a common problem. Just say the words 'Activate A3-21 Recall Code Violet' and that should activate the hidden subroutines.
